Day off

I wonder if anyone else gets this...

my kids are all of the sudden paying very close attention to my work schedule. I get Mondays off, so they know what day I am home with them, but any other "irregularity" gets them all concerned.

I have today off from work and so I get the third degree (especially from my Trinity)

"You aren't working today?"
"No, I have the day off"
(pause)
"Do you still get Monday off?"
"Yes"
(pause)
"What about Dad, is he here?"
"No"
(pause)
"It's Thursday right?"
"Yes"
(pause)
"Do you work tomorrow?"
"No, it's a holiday this weekend. Kind of a weird schedule."
(pause)
"Is Dad here on Monday?"
"Yes"
(pause)
"Did you get fired?"
"NO, IT'S THE FOURTH OF JULY!"
(pause)
"Did Dad get fired?"

Another proponent for kids needing structure in their lives. :)
