[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are all posting in a troll thread.

OP had me until she added a detail about the fictional stepmom giving her a photobook of what the kids did on the Pacific Northwest trip [I]as soon as [/i] they returned from the trip.  At what point in that clearly busy and full trip did the stepmom have the opportunity to sort through photos of the entire two weeks, choose the good ones, print them, [I]and[/i] organize them into a photo book?

Good job trolling, OP.  It's the little details that get us every time, but you did try hard.[/quote]

Uhh, do you have a smart phone?  Because there are any number of apps that let you order with a few clicks.  Choosing 25 photos of the kids to print up just isn't that hard...[/quote]

So, they're wrangling 4 kids in the great outdoors and paying full attention (because, you know, she's perfect) AND she is taking tons of photos, sorting and sending them to print, and makes a photo book as soon as she gets home.  But wait, there's more!  She also had time to immediately grocery shop, unpack everything, and tidy up all immediately as soon as she got home.

This all sounds plausible to you, as opposed to being a troll's imagination at work?

it is not that tall an order for decisive and organized people. You take a million pics on vacation--choose 25 in an app, hit "order" and you're done. On your way home from vacay you shop. You unpack immediately when you get home instead of sitting on the couch with your ipad to "decompress." Your house was never messy in the first place so "tidy up" is not a tall order.  I'm not one of these people, but I see clearly enough how it's done, and how to be one of them if I wanted to take the effort.

IME, such people usually have one or two areas of their life that they completely ignore, also. I have a friend who is killer at work, a great cook, on top of her SN kid and her normal kid's needs, volunteers for everything, looks great always...and her house is an utter sty. [/quote]
