Wouldn’t it be great if you could clone yourself? I cannot tell you how many times IN A DAY I wish that there were two of me. For my husband that is a nightmare. Two of my opinions. Two of my debit cards. Two of my never-ending-things-I-want-to-do-to-the-house lists. I just don’t think the poor boy could take it.
But for me and my kids it would be fantastic. Think of what we could do, ladies! We could take one kid to ballet AND take the other one to soccer. We could be folding laundry AND be emptying the dishwasher. Better yet, we could be making the bed while also sleeping in it!!!! Or spending “quality time” (read between the lines here) with our husbands AND be getting a relaxing spa pedicure.
Oh, just the thought of it makes me giddy. Never again would there be that guilt for the thing that has to give. Sometimes it is one of my kids. Mom, you always take care of Baby. You never play with me. Can you hear my heart breaking through your speakers? OMG. Never again would you have to TIVO Glee because your husband wants to have relations. I know I already mentioned that one, but let’s be honest about that issue! Never again would you have to drag your family from one Christmas day event to the next.
With all the double dipping that could be done, something really strange might happen. You might actually have time to do nothing. I know that seems far fetched. The earth is flat, global warming is real, Victoria Beckham has fat cells, Mommy has time to chill. All of these things are equally ridiculous. But it sure would be nice…
P.S. Check out the picture at the top of this post. If we could clone ourselves, we would ALL be this hot. Why? Because we could vacuum the house AND go to the gym.

I think TIVO could become obsolete. We’d actually have time to watch our shows AND their commercials.
hahahaha!! too bad one of me would be permanently relegated to the laundry room.
