Old Men = Funny & Cute
I was pumping gas yesterday morning before I got on the skyway towards Dr. C’s office and this older black man pulls in and gets out of his Caddy. At that precise moment I coughed and it really hurt my belly so I had my hand over it.
He called out, “Are you ok? Cuz I ain’t know how to deliver no baby!”
I giggle and call back, “I’m fine, I just have a cold and it kills my stomach muscles when I cough. But, I assure you that water’s in tact and baby’s fine!”
He smiles and says, “Good to know!”
Old Ladies = Know It Alls (NOT!)
Dear Old Lady Walking By Me In Walmart,
Who the fuck do you think you are and what do you think gives you the fucking right to make a snide comment to me regarding my current state? How do you know what my comfort level is? How do you know if Im ready to pop? How? Are you the all-knowing-comfort-and-pop fairie? And, while we are at it, seeing as you know EVERYTHING about ANYTHING, can you tell me what my comfort level and popability will be on December 9th? Huh. Huh. Can ya? Thought not. BITCH!
Sincerely,
She-Whom-Has-No-Patience-For-Comments-From-Old-Crotches
Thankfullness; Today and Always!
I’m thankful for having the husband I do. He takes me with my faults and has made me a better person over the years. I’m thankful for his intelligence and that he pursued his dream and got it! I’m thankful that he’s safe in the friendly skies and will continue to thank the Lord for that daily.
I’m thankful for the chance I have to raise children. Sometimes they drive me nuts but they are my life and I am thankful for the three children I have raised so far and the one that we will all raise together.
I’m thankful for a healthy pregnancy.
I’m thankful to see the sibling interactions that I do, as I was an only child. I’m thankful that the kids are so close and I pray for an abundance of that gratitude as they get older and mature.
I’m thankful that we have a family that loves us, unconditionally, and that will help us when we have bumps in the road as well as encourage us when we are flying over hurdles.
I’m thankful for friends that care and for being given the presence and acceptance of self to be able to make friends and be loyal to them.
I’m thankful for all the right that our country provides us.
I’m thankful for the sun, the moon, the stars, the seasons…the earth!
Bonafied Space Cowboy
Yesterday Mikey and Livey were with my paretns and Benny and I went to McD’s for lunch. On the way home we heard The Joker (Steve Miller Band) and he’s been singing it ever since.
He sings, “I’m a joker, I’m a smoker, I’m a midnight TOGER!”
LOL
Oh Snap!
Today we met with fellow homeschoolers in Pembroke. The drive is about 35 minutes but that seems normal by GA standards, that I got used to. I would travel a good 25 minutes to get to co-op and at times it would take me 15 minutes to get to Walmart. So, this drive isn’t bad….or so I thought….
The kids got to play outside while we were there b/c the sun was shining. And, while it was crisp the sun provided some warmth. Benny did land himself in some mud and it reinforced to me that I need to have a bag of extra clothes for each kid.
After we left the church we headed over to pick some carrots and get some bread from the lady that runs the food minisitry. I got 5 big carrots and 3 loaves of bread (one foccacia, one sourdough and one french). It was a wonderful surprise. Afterwards the kids and I got lunch and headed home. On the way back to the interstate I couldn’t believe my eyes: SNOW! By the time we got on the thruway it was a full-fledged white out..
I have plenty of experience in driving in the white stuff but it sure is a shock after not having done it for a couple years. Mikey was a tad bit nervous but I reassured him that Mama had driven in much worse. I remember a night when I seemingly reinacted a scene from Ace Ventura Pet Detective, what with my head hanging out of the car to see better and what not.
