What a tale! Your description perfectly captures the shock, frustration, and ultimately the humor in handling a “grown-up child” husband! You really brought out the feeling of stepping into an unexpected disaster, where Mark’s lack of responsibility totally flipped the script. Sarah’s approach to teaching him a lesson with the chore chart and screen time rules was both hilarious and effective, bringing some well-deserved accountability.
The tension peaked nicely with the reveal of Mark’s mom arriving—it’s a classic, funny twist that’s satisfying as she backs Sarah up while Mark realizes he may have gone a step too far. And the addition of that last line, where Sarah holds onto the possibility of needing the “timeout corner” again, was a great finish.
