Emergency Broadcast

I have a to-do list on my iPhone that has some very important items on it. I assigned an alarm to it that sounds like the emergency broadcast signal because it's such an intensely irritating sound that I'll pay attention when the alarm goes off.

C and I were in the kitchen when the alarm sounded. She looked at the phone and said, "Doesn't that make your ears feel GOOD?!"

This explains so much.

A Job, Well, Done

I asked C to clear the table for dinner, a chore she usually does with J. Once she reported that the job was done, I leaned out of the kitchen door and saw that the table top was, indeed, cleared, so I gave her a reward for a job done quickly and well.

A few minutes later I came out to set the table. Can you guess what I found?

*******

Under the table. Exactly where it had been on the table.
