Proud Mommy Moments--

I got into a fight with this child about underwear.  Yep, you read that right. Underwear.  She had gathered her clothes for the school day, but claimed she could not find any underwear. I told her to go back upstairs and look again.  To which she simply said, "No."  Oh no she didn't!  Oh yes she did! She said she wanted me to do it.  Okay number one this is totally ridiculous. Hello, you have legs child!  Number two my knee is in arthritic fits right now as is my ankle.  Like h e double tooth picks I am going upstairs to fetch your dang underwear!  Get it yourself!  We literally fought for 5 minutes over WHO was getting her underwear.  I finally told her I am her teacher and not her servant.  She stomped up the stairs and got herself some underwear.  After she was dressed she was finally remorseful.  Yeah.  Look long and hard at that face....she can be stubborn.

Oh he's so sweet.  He will woo you with those big beautiful blue eyes of his.  But don't fooled.  He is a master of deception.  Or at least a devil in disguise.  Last Saturday, Kristin babysat our neighbor's kids and earned a nice chunk of change.  She put it trustingly on her desk.  Why wouldn't she?  I wouldn't take it.  Rich wouldn't.  Emily is far too smart to take that kind of cash.  Monday morning--what is it about MONDAY!?  Monday morning came rolling in and Ryan strolled into the family room with cash in his hands and a big grin.  At first I couldn't figure out where he got money.  Nobody has money in this house.  Then it hit me.  Kristin!  He took her babysitting money.  He happily told me he could now buy lunch!  (And then some you little thief!)  I told him that was Kristin's money and he was to put it back.  He did.  I made sure.

Yep...some proud moments this week!

I am linking up with EmmyMom and KMama this and their Proud Mommy Moments.  What are your PMM's?

Oh boy, you do have a stubborn one, don't you? My youngest was very stubborn, but nobody is more stubborn than me, so I won just like you did.

Your kids are funny and hysterical too. Add in the fact that they are great looking and probably a lot like Mama!

That's quite a face she has there, LOL! I guess you could have just let her go "commando" for the day and then see how she felt about underwear....

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters...
