Like the song says:  “Tale as old as time…”  This is probably a familiar situation for every parent (except mine, because I certainly never did anything like that), so I’m sure you all feel my pain.  It’s an ugly, endless cycle.  ;P  Best way to keep them busy and out of the way for hours on end, though.

I’m wearing my Section 9, Ghost in the Shell shirt, while the girls are both kitten around with bubblegum cat and meow-face cat.
