Been a while since I sat down at the computer to type out more than one sentence at a time (Tweet, Tweet!) what’s going on in my world/head! So, instead of coming up with some amazingly sensical (I don’t think that’s a word but I’d like to add it to the dictionary. . . meaning: “makes sense”) post I’m just going to give you a few bullet points of random thoughts and goings on around here (goings on? whatever!)! I have to type fast before someone breaks both their arms, catches the swine flu again, or rolls their head up in the car window and gets it stuck (what? yes, it happened!)!

• Thinking about donating to Goodwill. A load of leftover Halloween candy. Would that be totally inappropriate? Don’t act like it hasn’t crossed your mind too!
• I did not just turn around while typing this to see my son licking the top of the salt shaker! Of course I did, because that would be disgusting. I’m starting to think that’s what this son is majoring in these days. . . grossing out his madre (you know, his Kindergarten major)!
• Speaking of licking . . . found my precious, dainty, girly-girl, sweet thang, baby angel girl LICKING crumbs off the ceramic tile floor in the kitchen. Wondering at what point today she morphed into a Great Dane! And yes, I sweep (when the mood hits me)!
• You know the coffee stirrer thingies at Starbucks (think anorexic tongue depressor)? Sometimes I give those out to children (my children, not random Starbucks children) that are following instructions as prizes. I call them “Good Sticks”. Sounds strange now that I’m typing it. Well, just a little parenting tip for those of you brave enough to take your children in the Bucks! Actually, it’s not all that bright of me. Because then the “Good Sticks” become swords, guns, well any weapon in general and I end up sending the “Good Sticks” to a very bad place! The TRASH!
• Last week was “Red Ribbon Week” at the boys school. Why on earth did they have to make it so complicated?!?! Sheesh! I do good to find the keys in the morning, make sure everyone is dressed and has their homework, lunches, etc.! I cannot remember to dress them like a Drug Enforcement Agent too!! Ok, well really they were just supposed to wear camo but DEA sounds better! But I do try and act supportive of all the bizillions of “special weeks” we have at school. That’s why I came up with my own slogan better than “Hugs Not Drugs”. I went with “Thugs do Drugs”. . . .and “Jesus Died for Thugs that do Drugs”. I know, random, girl am I!
• I had to tell my 2nd grader that he is not allowed to use words that Mommy has to google the meaning of to find out what he’s talking about. This after he said “Ayden pushed me and made me hit my elbow on the VERTICES of these walls.” What the what? Vertices? Seriously, he does not carry a pocket protector so geometry speak is not recommended for children his age! Besides, geometry was my worst subject ever. No geometry speak here! Just saying!

Ok, enough nonsense for tonight. Working on a serious post for next time. I know, bummer, right? Kidding! Good night my friends! Well, good night Macy. I think you’re the only reader left!
