the door to the secret 

Weekends leave Pat exhausted. It's tough being a
kickass, take no prisoners wife and mom. It's not
easy to constantly ride herd on her recalcitrant,
lethargic, and dim-witted menfolk. On workdays,
after packing Chris and Patrick off, she repairs to
her secret haven. Here she kicks back and regains
both her substance and equilibrium.
