Sounds like some of the squirrels around here.
I assume that at least some of the folks in the US reading this are
familiar with the commercial where a squirrel runs out in front of a
car, the car swerves all over the place, and you hear sounds of a crash
once the car is offscreen. Then the squirrel is high-fived, etc. by
another squirrel. "You da SQUIRREL!" seems to be implied. Anyway, I
feel like I'm living in that commercial sometimes as I'm coming home.

packing, getting the new house ready to move into, dealing with a
1-year-old, etc.
