Catching Up

When you’ve been away and you return,
There’s so much you must do:
Laundry, phone calls, paying bills –
Of those there are a slew.

You’ve gotta stock up at the store –
Refrigerator’s bare;
Or scrounge around and come up with
A meal if you don’t care.

Newspapers wait in a pile,
Mailbox overflowing;
Seems as if your list of chores
Just grows and keeps on growing.

That’s the price you have to pay
When you go on vacation,
‘Cause upon return the stress
Is back for the duration…
