MUST speak CLEARLY when speaking to a TEEN!

Yup - I actually already knew this - but it must have slipped my mind. I asked Nick (16 yrs.) to do the vacuuming. Then Tim and I went out to do groceries. When we got home - the house had been vacuumed - BUT - there was the vacuum - right in the middle of the front entrance. When I asked Nick why the vacuum was there his response was, "Well - you asked me to vacuum - you didn't tell me to also put it away when I was done!" Yes - he is well on his way to becoming a REAL MAN! Mind going to mush.........DIZ!
