My childrens dream vacation

Well it seems that my children’s idea of a dream vacation would be any of the Orlando vacations.  They are begging to go to Disney World, Sea World, or any of the other many, many attractions they have in the Orlando area.  That’s a great place to go over Winter break if you ask me.  Hey, that’s an idea.  Maybe I should book a vacation that week for part of their Christmas.  What do you think?  Bet they would love it!!!

Why you should think before you speak

Have you ever spoken and wished that you could immediately take the words back… Here are the Testimonials of a few people who did….

Funny Moms Stories #1:

I walked into a hair salon with my husband and three kids in tow and asked loudly, “How much do you charge for a shampoo and a blow job?” I turned around and walked back out and never went back. My husband didn’t say a word… he knew better.

Funny Moms Stories #2:

I was at the golf store comparing different kinds of golf balls. I was unhappy with the woman’s type I had been using. After browsing for several minutes, I was approached by one of the good-looking gentlemen who works at the store. He asked if he could help me. Without thinking, I looked at him and said, “I think I like playing with men’s balls.”

Boy can I relate to this

I too worked for Home Depot and can very easily imagine one of my children doing something like this!!

Here’s what little Mary Smith turned in for her first grade homework.

Well POO I lost the picture!!!!

The homework was checked by Mrs. Jones, the teacher, and returned home.
Here’s the reply the teacher received the following day:

Dear Mrs. Jones,
I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer.  I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week before the blizzard hit.  I told her we sold out every single shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people were fighting over who would get it.  Her picture doesn’t show me dancing around a pole.  It’s supposed to depict me selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot. From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.
Sincerely,
Mrs.  Smith

I guess you can call me ‘typical’

Yes I admit I am one of those women that just loves women’s shoes.  I have been that way all of my life.  My mother used to have a time keeping me out of her closet and her shoes.  Now that I can buy shoes online, I am definitely a happy girl.  I not only save money but time too which I have very little of with children and everything else I have going on.  Maybe you might even like to check out my new favorite shoe store.

Funny ‘Mom’ story

I can identify with this unfortunately!!!

Have you ever asked your child a question too many times? My three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training and I was on him constantly. One day we stopped at Taco Bell for a quick lunch in between errands. It was very busy, with a full dining room.

While enjoying my taco, I smelled something funny, so of course I checked my seven-month-old daughter, and she was clean. Then I realized that Danny had not asked to go potty in a while. I asked him if he needed to go, and he said “No”.

I kept thinking “Oh Lord, that child has had an accident, and I don’t have any clean clothes with me.” Then I said, “Danny, are you SURE you didn’t have an accident?” “No,” he replied.

I just KNEW that he must have had an accident, because the smell was getting worse. So, I asked one more time, “Danny, did you have an accident?”

This time he jumped up, yanked down his pants, bent over, spread his cheeks and yelled “SEE MOM, IT’S JUST FARTS!!”
While 30 people nearly choked to death on their tacos laughing, he calmly pulled up his pants and sat down. An older couple made me feel better, thanking me for the best laugh they’d ever had!

I need new shoes

The kids get new shoes every week it seems but I just realized that I need new shoes.  I love Dansko brand shoes.  They have some really pretty clogs that are really comfortable.  I also love the value of them.  They really last a long time.  Well that is unless your daughter wears them out in a mud puddle that is.  I was fit to be tied!!!

What a beautiful Saturday!

Today was one of the first Saturdays that the sun has shined all day in a long time.  I thought it would be a perfect day to take my children to the park for a picnic.  They had a blast.  I packed their favorite sandwiches, chips, pickles and juice for them and then threw in some watermelon just for good measure.  The kids played so hard and had a blast.

We haven’t had so much fun in a long time.  I even got on the playground equipment with them.  There was an old mill there that they used to grind corn into cornmeal and the kids were fascinated by it.  I hope we have another great weather day on the weekend soon because there are a lot of parks that aren’t that far from us to explore.

Phone number lookup

If you’ve got a phone number that keeps showing up on your caller ID, or do you have someones phone number and want to know their address? Nationwide Phone Look up can help you find out who’s calling and not leaving a message or help you to find someones address when all you have is their name and phone number. That can come in awfully handy if you really need to find someone. It can also come in handy if someone is calling and leaving obscene messages too. You just can’t be too careful in this day in time especially when you’re a single Mom. Oh that web site is nationwidephonelookup.com. It might come in handy!!!

Spicy Town

My younger cousin sent me an email, inviting me to “meet her online” in Spicy Town. Spicy Town is a fictitious town in an online video game produced by the company that sells Slim Jim spicy snacks. So I went to the online game site to meet my cousin there. I had to create an avatar to use to play the game. It was kind of fun, creating the avatar. The avatar was called my “spicy side.” Setting up my “spicy side” was quick, easy, and amusing. I had to take a picture of myself and upload it to their site, then their program helped center my facial features around their pre-drawn outline of facial features, then they make a funny little creature with horns and funky hair, and then they turned me loose into the video game.

During the game I was supposed to go around collecting Slim Jim’s that I found lying around on the ground. I only found three, but I only played for a few minutes, trying to find my cousin. There were other people’s avatars in the game walking around too. Some seemed to be fighting with each other (I don’t know why, maybe one insulted the other, those spicy sides are unpredictable and uncontrollable!) some were just walking around ranting and raving. The game has chat functions and buddy lists, but I didn’t stay on it long enough to check those out, had to many other things that were demanding my attention at that time.

If you want to play the game yourself, go to spicyside.com!

Now I know where they get them

You’ve seen the kids in their funky clothes these days just like I have. In fact, my kids have been asking for some of them but I have never seen a rave clothing store until I found this one online at beatdropscloset.com.

Now I know where they find all those things they wear. I must admit I do like some of the things the girls are wearing like the furry boots. They remind me of Cher when she first started with Sunny. Pretty neat if you ask me. Some of the clothes I’m not that crazy about so the kids will just have to be happy with what I get.
