Drink security? All righty then...

Kid Two is awesome.  It's a special kind of awesome that makes be shake my head and laugh on the daily. His latest quirky-yet-logical behavior has to do with his water bottle he takes to school. All the kids are allowed a water bottle in class. They are all kept at the back table grouped together in a basket with their name and class number written on them. By Friday, Kid Two's backpack contains a weeks worth of his empty water bottles. Last Friday as he was cleaning out his pack, I noticed he had written like an entire sentence on all of his bottles. I asked him what that was all about...
"I wrote 'I BACKWASH' on them that way FOR SURE no one will accidentally drink out of mine. I don't really backwash, but they don't know that. I know...it's genius."
Genius and juuuust a lil' whackadoodle, homslice.❤

"I Backwash" Also known as Drink security.

I Hit Snooze, Again

-
Do people hibernate? I'm convinced we do. Or I've just decided this is the reason for my wanting to stay under the covers and become a professional snoozer. The fact that I haven't seen the sun in 8 days and it hasn't been balmier than 45º has driven my inner bear-ness. I live in a cloud. Really. This town is officially a cloud. And not a pretty, billowy cumulonimbus cloud. More like a big, heavy, grey, damp blanket of a cloud. Blah. Wake me when it's spring....

Mission Impossible

Anyone who is the parent of a teenager knows how fantastically difficult it is to wake this creature from slumber. They could test long range missiles right from his bedside, and he'd remain in an R.E.M. pattern. ZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzz..... The teenager who lives in my house has taken up the maddening habit of falling asleep when he arrives home from school. I try my best to wake him. No success. Homework not completed. No dinner in belly. Chores not done. He emerges from his cave at 9:30pm. Hungry and awake . Stretch and yawwwwwwwn.   He wants to know why I didn't wake him up?!? I know he asks this because he reaaaaaaally wants to watch my head spin completely around and laser beams to shoot out of my eyes. I explain that I tried  to wake him. He then, in great detail, schools me in the ways of his kind. Apparently, in order to wake a teenager you should hit them with a pillow. I'm not kidding . This is what he has shared with me. Well....in his defense, I have neve

Got Thin Mints?

It's Girls Scout cookie season, and how is it that I don't know a single crack dealer Girl Scout?!   I must have Thin Mints. I must have Thin Mints. I MUST HAVE THIN MINTS! I'd rather buy from someone I know....I guess I'll have to hit up the dealers in front of the grocery store. This is somewhat unnerving, considering I don't have any of their beeper numbers. But a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do. When I get them home, I will eat an entire stack, carefully, one at a time. The anticipation is almost unbearable..... I am an addict. Got Thin Mints?
