Household sadness since the boys left

 Such sorrow -  where have the 2 hour showers gone?
 No more empty gas tank when mother gets into the car in the morning...
 A very quiet fridge (at the optimal temperature) since the doors are now closed after they are opened...
 A discontented dog stomach - where are the midnight snacks?
 A naked bedroom floor - chilly and exposed to the world...
 A lonely plunger next to a forsaken pristine potty, next to a full toilet paper roll...
Where are the piles and piles and piles of putrid socks and underwear - mixed with the clean clothes that should have been put in the dresser drawer?  How about the towels that smelled like  rotting carcass?
