Could this day get any worse? I get home...take off my shoes, go out to the living room to close the blinds...was just too light and cheerful inside...and I stepped on a TOOTHPICK. Now my foot is bleeding along with everything else.

That's it...I'm done...someone make me a Lapu Lapu? Make it a double. I want two pineapples.

I tend to put a box of trash bags in every room of the house and that means you have 24 hours to clean it up other wise it is gone. It takes a lot to get me to that point. John and our daughter Shaunna call it the mommy melt down.

I always threaten DD if she doesn't pick up her toys in her room I would get a garbage bag and throw them all away....................................it works maybe half the time. The other half, she stands in the middle of her room saying she's cleaning, but when I look in she's staring at her tv.

At least it didn't go in too far. #1DS had to go to the ER to have one removed from his foot. went almost all the way thru.
This was after telling him not to run thru the house for the 10 millionth time We think it got vaccuumed up and the vaccuum spit it out from behind (hard wood floors, half the stuff the vaccuum sucks up gets spit right back out). Yes I vaccuumed, I was 6 months pregnant with youngest, you do weird things like cleaning when your pregnant.

Sounds good! Wanna adopt me? I'll go to college and bring you my laundry...

I think the cook to drive-thru ratio is about equal here.

Winner was going to make dinner, instead she cleaned house. She also had some bathroom emergencies from DS3. Loser told the husband to pick up Taco Bell on the way home from gymnastics. 2 drive thrus in one day, must be a record.

I had that happen to #1DS. The toothpick broke off. He was 2 at the time. He screamed until he almost passed out.

Oh bah I gotta go set up the machine to tape the dog show.

Well then you would love your new dad. Here is a funny story.
Last year DD was a freshman and DH used go and have lunch or supper with her once a week. Well at Christmas DD asked me if I would buy her loose change from her. I said sure. When she come home for Christmas break she asked if I would write her check for the change,I said okay. I started writing out the check and said how much am I writing the check for. She told me 450.00 dollars. I asked her how she had that much change and she said well it is all rolled and I got it from dad. Well come to find out he would give her rolls of quaters every time he went to see her for to wash her clothes. Now hold on here come the punch line drum roll please

























HE ALWAYS BROUGHT HOME THE DITY CLOTHES WITH HIM FOR ME TO DO.

Okay, you gotta admire her fiscal thought process. Dad gives useless money, Mom does clothes, Mom gives spendable money.

 

[RVGal]

Here's one along those lines...

We went to Atlantic City many, many years ago. My mom & I were sitting side by side at the slot machines. Mom ran out of money, so she went to find my dad. Dad gave her the $5 bill he had in his pocket and said that's all he had readily available until he cashed out of the machine he was playing. Mom sat back down beside me, played the $5, and hit the progressive jackpot. Almost $1500. She collected the payout and then gave Dad his $5 back.

Dad just stood there holding the $5 bill with a look on his face like, "I can't quite put my finger on it, but I think I just got screwed..."

That is so funny. My mom did that too. I was sitting next to her so she gave me $50.00. She didn't give my stepjerk anything.

Oh thats just what I was thinking. NOT. I asked him why would you give her money and bring me home the dirty clothes? He said well I gave her cash so she had money and rolls of quaters so in case she had time to do her wash she would have quaters to do it. The girl was double dipping

Well, folks, the boys are whining that they want a bath. Don't worry, they aren't strange. Bath time means they get to use the water pistols.

I guess I have to go contain the madness in the bathroom. See you guys tomorrow!

I've done that too!

I've also stapled two fingers together! blagh I'm getting the shivers thinking about it!

OK...family fed, children bathed and put to bed and now it's mommy's time...time to turn on American Idol and Dis.

 

[mdrob214]

I don't have tv trays. I just make the kids get a serving tray and sit on the floor in front of the tv. I didn't do chicken nuggets. The dude had BBall and the Chick had swimming so I browned up some hamburger and tacos it is! It's an everyone-grab-a-plate-when-you-can night.

So I saw that iron that Doesney posted. I have used one but it's not my fav. DD asked today what she could do to earn $3 for tomorrow. Would it be easier to do the ironing myself (I could probably put it off a few days or more) or teach her how so she can earn that $3 and a new chore?
What other chore might be worth $3 and wouldn't require my direct supervision?

SOmetimes I miss those days. Not the bathing of the kids, but the kids going to bed early. Sigh.................................

She's going to make you proud some day!!

Well, we're back from the Blue and Gold dinner. It was good, better because I didn't have to cook or pay..

I'm beat..I have more WINNER stuff to do tomorrow, so I think I'm going to cut out of here early. I can't believe y'all have gone two days with no trolls..Maybe someone here should go out and start one...

G'nite, y'all...

here's Linty if she was a boy...

 

[Lintasare]

What is it with dog show judges and poodles? They have the goofiest haircuts and really...not that great looking. I am sick of poodles winning. Why not the Yorkie...the Yorkie was adorable. The Italian Greyhound was adorable and I love the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.

Can only hope the beagle takes Best of Show.

And I don't hate poodles, I am just not a fan of the frou frou cut. Let it be natural. It's so nice natural.
