    HAHAHA... I got speeding ticket incident. I flirted my way out of a speeding ticket when I was 20. Not proud of it necessarily but kind of and only because I was like "alright... im the bomb! What do you want from me I was 20! And oh and just a few years ago I was pulled over for going 10 miles over the limit and I cried. But that day was the PILL of all days and all I wanted to do was get home.. NOTHING went right that day and furthermore I had the biggest fight with my husband (at the time) just before I left work so that was the LAST thing I needed. So the flood gates opened uncontrollably. The cop pitied me and let me go with a warning.

    Let's see... I hate cleaning. My house is clean but I dislike cleaning it. Anyway the other day I was cleaning house and tried vacuuming the floor without plugging the vacuum in.

    Don't feel bad I was trying to do laundry the past month and thought the water hose froze.
    The other day, tired of going to the laundramat and it being a nice day couldn't figure out why the hose hadn't thawed. Checked it out and it wasn't even plugged in!!

    Hahahaha, reminds me...
    I had to vacuum before my mom got home so I decided I would just make the streaks on the floor, never plugged it in... why? Why didn't I just plug it in, not like she didn't see the dirt wasn't picked up?? How stupid is that? I mean I pushed and pulled that vacuum over the whole thing... sometimes I tell you!

    Okay, we really aren't that bad girls, here's a story to make all of us feel better.

    When I was in high school I had a friend whose father wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer, if you get what I'm saying. Anyway one spring, when the snow had melted and it was lawn cleanup time, he went outside with the vacuum cleaner, and, yup, he vacuumed the entire lawn. The neighbors all grabbed a drink and sat on their porches to watch, after all, it's not every day you see someone vacuuming his yard, is it?

    No Help - A shop vac is still a bit silly, but he used his regular vac to clean the grass. Yup, apparently it was really dirty, being that it's grown in dirt and all. He also painted his driveway with regular household paint. He was a card all right, he was also a few cards shy of a deck, not the brightest crayon in the box, not the sharpest tool in the shed, a few bricks shy of a load, I digress, I think you all get the picture.:) :p :D :eek:

    Peek-a-boo...

    I enjoy hiding vegetable purée in cookies and brownies and never telling my husband I do it... lol. He claims to hate all the veggies I use... LOL... I got the idea from jerry seinfelds wife...

    Also I have an obsession with my penmanship... whether it's a note to myself, or my hubby, or to anyone doesn't look just right I will rip it up an re write it as often as needed until the handwriting looks just right... I think its borderline OCD.

    Penmanship is a long forgotten art... keep it up Al!
    I have a great aunt who is the same, and we all love her penmanship, she will be remembered for that among other things!
    Nice to see you! How are you and the family? You have been missed and thought about often by me!
    Happy Easter everyone!

    By the way, my son walked by when I was posting, saw your avatar, and asked why someone was hurting that poor bunny.

    Thanks guys. It was rough tough stuff we had to learn, but I guess I finally got it. All about mechanical ventilation, preload, afterload, congestive heart failure, pulmonary embolis.

    But, I spent my weekend away from here and in the books, LOL

    My son is 15 months old, and if I'm getting ready in the bathroom and I'm tired of hearing him whine... I let him play in the toilet...
    He finds it amazing, and I don't have to hear him scream (btw--i'm a cleaning nazi)

    Oh, and be careful, toilets are the #1 drowning place of all children in the home. All a child of that age needs is 1 cup of water to drown.
  • Mar 25, 2008, 08:40 AM
    curlybenswife
    MMMM that kind of worried me to I have to say the toilet just isn't a play place neither is the bathroom or any unsupervised water area scary if you ask me.
  • Mar 25, 2008, 08:43 AM
    J_9
    I know CBW, I would never let any of my children play in the toilet whether I was in there with them or not.

    How are you this beautiful morning?

    Reminded me of the time when my guy (son) was little enough to climb into the toilet and sit down! Thank god it was clean! It was a shock but kind of funny to see how much fun he was having. He got to take a nice playtime and swim in the bath tub after that!
  • Mar 25, 2008, 08:46 AM

    Man, that would scare the he! Out of me!!

    I'm okay, but have to start studying for the next test on Monday. Remember I told you this would be the WORST semester of the whole 2 years? Well, boy was that the truth!!

    It was scarey, and I should have said the bath was immediately after as in as soon as he was seen, and before he had time to dry off!

    When I was around 4 my parents bought a new refrigerator. Mom turned the box into a play house. She cut off the top and fashioned a roof and then covered the entire thing with left over wallpaper. It was the hit of the neighborhood and lasted for years, until I accidentally left it out in the rain. Ah, memories.

    Ohhh that is great, wall paper huh? Good idea, very good idea, we always just paint or color ours but I bet the wall paper made it even stronger...
    We had one from our freezer, it last days not years, but it sure was fun!

    Someone left the box out in the rain
    I don't think that I can take it
    Cause it took so long to make it
    And I'll never find that recipe again...

    :D
