Wouldn’t it be funny?!
The first day of school has unfortunately/fortunately begun. I like every awesome mother in the universe filled out a million sheets of paperwork, knowing no one will ever really look at them! I was tickled with some of the questions being asked, especially on the Limited English Proficiency Form (I understand its a screener, still funny all the same)….

In the dollar store earlier today my 79 yr ole’ dad picks up a “Yard Butterfly”, no big deal, right? Then he proceeded to make it fly in a circular motion around his belly & stated, “I have butterflies in my tummy, I have butterflies in my tummy! The crazy things my dad says!

Granny’s gone wild!
Kids were acting a fool today! I made a mistake of letting them sit next to one another at a restaurant for lunch. Afterwards, they chased each other through the parking lot with a toothpick. My mom gathered them up in the car & said “Watch out, granny’s gone wild, I have a lethal weapon in my purse…
It all started with the Eye Doctor!
Image via Wikipedia The day began so normal, even for me. I had a eye exam and my parents & I were going to fit some flu shots in at our doctor down the street, so they decided to drive me, since my eyes were being dilated. They picked me up 20 minutes before the appointment, I realized on the way there,…
Calgon take mommy away #1!
It’s hard to be a mommy sometimes, it doesn’t matter what age your kids are, it doesn’t get easier. No one ever tells you this, not your mom, grandma or even your neighbor. Books aren’t much help either, they make it sound as if raising kids is a joy, pleasure, even at times easy, like…
