Sarah worked on her classroom most of the day today. I cleaned the house, did laundry, and realized my occupation. Now, when people at church ask me what I do, I can tell them with confidence, "I'm a housewife."

(Note that my above comment ended with a period and not an exclamation point: this indicates that my tone deadpans, rather than changes to a higher pitch, at the end of the sentence. Understanding that point is the key to my literary intention.)
