Sad

Sad were the days when I left for work before the kids woke up, and returned home after they had gone to bed, their bedtime being 20:00 hours.

Sadder still were the days when I left for work before wifey woke up, and returned home after she had gone to bed, her bedtime being 00:00 hours.

Sad indeed when I spent three-quarter of a day at work and just a quarter at home.
