Why am I still here? I have to be at work in 45 minutes and I haven't even gotten the suitcase out yet? What is wrong with me?

 

[MomsOf2boys]

Sorry girlfriend, I messed you up. And here I was promising that I was leaving to go pack!! Sorry!!

Are you moving too? I am way behind on posts and just can't seem to catch up.

You had better run then or else you will be stuck with no clothes.

 

[MomsOf2boys]

Some people would probably enjoy that though. hahahaha

 

[Wine Diva]

OMG my son is like that too. The oddest facts possible are the ones he quotes. We are always laughing at the topics he chooses for late night conversations.

By the way, you stole my FO. lol

Glad to know my son isn't the only one. He is always asking me stuff and I can't even fake the answer because it is some topic way beyond my realm of knowledge. I like it when he asks me about wine--of course, it usually ends up on the chemistry of wine--the little bugger!

 

[MomsOf2boys]

I now have some form that I must fill out for both kids giving some educational benefits for the students to miss school and get it counted excused absences. What kinds of great and wonderful ideas can I get that would be counted as curriculum like for a 6th grader and a 10th grader.

No, we are not moving!! Thanks goodness! I like to say we can never move--we have 4.75% interest on our mortgage so for the time being we are stuck! We are going to DC for our 15th wedding anniversary!

My son goes off on some explanation of how perhaps the color red is not really red but green but because we have been programed to believe it is red we say red. And that perhaps we are not all seeing the same color anyway... it is the thought of color that we believe it to be and that the only ones that truly see it might be those who are labeled color-blind.. because it is really us that sees these colors wrong.

Do you mean for the time they will miss for the cruise?

Well HAPPY ANNIVERSARY... and I guess, you truly don't need clothes! hahahahahahahahhaha

 

[MomsOf2boys]

Yes. I have to fill out some form for each of them.

OMG!! That is hilarious!! I have got to read that to my son--he will totally love it--we will be talking about that for days!!!

 

[MomsOf2boys]

I am sure I can come up with some interesting things that they could possibly document...or survey...

 

[Wine Diva]

Sorry--got you again!!

The worse thing is that he says stuff like that all the time and really debates his theory with us. Until we get to that point of just telling him to shut up for a while. He has one on reincarnation as well... to the point of it boiling down to really only one person has been here so many times forward and back and simutaneously that they are the only one that exsists... they are friends, father, mother blah blah of themselves. I know I never dropped him on his head...

I would think the Mayan Ruins in Cozumel would totally count! (We're still trying to decide if we should do this on our own.) Maybe we should come with you and our boys could have some meaningful discussions on color--I would think you could use that same argument on flavors and/or taste too.

 

[MomsOf2boys]

Sorry--got you again!!

That's ok. we have filled another page almost.

I see a philosophy degree in his future!! (Watch out--that means you will be supporting him all his life!)

True is that. We are doing the one that is on the island.. the San G...something one. My nephews who are greatly intelligent and get going on some of these will be with us too...as well as the 11 year old who blurts out stuff like "I like Pie" in mid conversation about something else. What a riot!
