Tuesday's Tantrum...

Can ANYONE explain to me WHY

1. It's ok to wait over an hour in a doctors office? BUT
2. It's not ok to wait an hour at QT for a Diet Coke
3. It's not ok to wait an hour after school to pick up your kids in the car pool lane
   
4. It's not ok to wait an hour in the drive through at McDonald's to get your order
5. It's not ok to wait an hour in the check out line at Fry's
   
6. It's not ok to wait an hour to get your pizza from Domino's
   
7. It's not ok to wait an hour at a red light
8. It's not ok to wait an hour at IN and OUT
9. It's not ok to wait on hour at NORDSTROM to get a great pair of shoes in size 8.5

Just so were clear... If you are wondering where I stand...I know I do tend to keep my opinions to my SELF, something I am constantly working on,
IT's NOT OK TO MAKE PEOPLE WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(on a totally different topic...how AMAZING is that watch...I bet some doctors could use that to help them stay on time!! I would be happy to use it! MIKE :D)

Am I Seeing Double?

It's said that pets and owners look alike...Today as Mike and I went to pick up Farley from the groomers I was amazed at how the two women leaving looked EXACTLY like their dogs.

Now, we are not one of THOSE kind of pet owners...we don't stay home from work because our Dog is sick, we do not have pet insurance, we do not dress our dog in tacky "outfits", we do not refer to her as our "Daughter" and we do not let her sleep with us...we OWN a DOG...that's it.
SO, when Mike walked out I thought, hmmm, do they look alike?

I know she doesn't come from my side :D.

(ya know, she technology is my brother's dog... :D )

Ohhh No She DIdn't

After dropping off the boys at school...I went to Sonic to get a celebration "Diet Coke"...(don't all mom's do that?)...and when the Sonic chick brought it out she said to me," OHH, your hair looks so good!" So I replied (JOKINGLY) "Ya, I did it today." and then she said, "Ya, you should do it more often, it looks good!"

Ummm, ok. Didn't know I was looking so horrendous lately. Guess so, or is it bad that I've gone to Sonic soooo much that the girl is now giving me HAIR ADVICE?

Empyt Nester!!!

O: "Mom, I don't want you to take me to school, I want to ride the BUS!!"
Mom: "O, don't you want me to go with you on your first day to show you where everything is?"
O: "No. "
Mom: "Please O, I would really like to take you and then you can ride the bus HOME."
O: "No."
Mom: "Fine!"






Mom: "Then I guess I'll just meet you there."
O: "ok"

Killin" Time

What do you do when stuck in the car for over an hour WAITING for your school open house?

Take pictures of course!!!

High and Low

at dinner tonight O asked if everyone could give their "high's and low's"...(a normal thing we do at dinner each night)

Dad's high: that I showered and did my hair
Ian's high: that I am walking faster
Owen's high: that I got out of bed and made him muffins


Thanks boys!

(baker chose to leave me out of his! He's my favorite now...Crate was at scouts so he didn't get to vote)

Incase your wondering...
My high: that a dear friend brought us dinner
My low: that I STILL can't bend over :(

Todays the Day...

Yea for mom's everywhere...today was the first day of school...we'll for 2 that is!!

The boys are TOO BIG now for me to take them to school...but I can still embarrass them outside our house with a "Back From School Photo Op!"

OHHH, and guess who's Birthday it is today? Yep, Happy 11th birthday Crate, now THAT'S IT!!!
