An email and giggle from my Mom . . .
On Wednesday I went to the clinic to get my H1N1 shot. The clinic had a room set up where all they did was give these shots by appointment. When I arrived there was nobody else in there but right after I got there a woman came [...]

Mr. Ford
Dude and I are standing in the kitchen after school, doing the customary empty the backpack, check the planner, look at the homework routine.
Me: Dude, looks like you have another big book report to do before winter break.
Dude: Yup. It has to be on an inventor or scientist of something like that.
Me: Do you know [...]
Puff Balls
I just got back from Parents Only Back To School Night. You get to go listen to your kids’ teachers give their schpeel about what’s going to happen that year and what they expect from the students and how things will go, blah blah blah. It actually was very informative, and I really do like [...]
Wisdom Teeth
A conversation with my 8 year old son while we waited for the IMAX movie to start.
Dude: Mom . . . when am I going to get braces?
Me: Not for quite a while, Buddy.

M: Dentist says you need to wait until all [...]

Me: Princess, I’m driving!

Things Are Tight This Year
I received this in an email and couldn’t resist
My dear friends,
Somewhat embarrassing to admit, I’m not getting an annual bonus and Christmas is tight this year. I will be making bedroom slippers for you all as gifts. Please let me know your sizes. You’ll most likely agree that it’s a splendid idea, and should [...]
Are Those Chopsticks?
We were in the House of Blues and Dude saw these . . . he thought it was cool that they had “flavored” chopsticks
Edited: Due to overwhelming email messages (OK, 5, but still) I will qualify the post - no they are not chopsticks. They are incense. I just thought it was funny that [...]
Is That A Banana In Your Pocket?
Even though Dude did not find the perfect Halloween costume on our whirlwind tour of all stores costume on Sunday, he did find one that he found pleasantly amusing. It was this one from Old Navy.
Princess and Mom are browsing the kitty cat costume rack to see if they have the right size.
Dude: Hey Mom! [...]
