Kindred,
A good way to entertain the kids; brush up on your Bible stories.
Veggie Tales have some good bible stories videos on You Tube (that you can buy or rent or watch sample clips).
Or sing some songs, like A gift to You and put on a performance.
When you need to scream, scream into a bucket of water; it helps you vent without attracting too much attention.
Or a good cry always helps (pretend you just finished chopping onions).
Try not to resort to having too much spirits as this is a marathon and not a sprint.
If all else fails, try baking a batch of cookies. (I hear people can make fantastic shapes and designs, not just the gingerman kind)
