Distract Me!

DemoDoll · June 2013

So I decided I'm going to stop testing and wait for AF. If she doesn't come on Wednesday am, I will test. I am already second guessing my decision. Please distract me...ask me a question, tell me a funny story or AW a pic of your cute baby since I'm on mobile and what they have been doing lately.

My grandmother was a nurse in a veteran's hospital during WWII. One morning she heard a buzz going around, "The General is coming to visit! The General is coming to visit!" She got busy and didn't get a chance to ask who "The General" was. Later on, as she was going to a patient's room with a covered tray, a hush came over the floor. She looked and down the hall came General Omar Bradley. He stopped in front of her and looked at her tray. "Well, what's for breakfast this morning?" He lifted the cover off the tray, saw that it was not food but rather all the stuff for an enema, turned red, and said, "Carry on, nurse."

On parenting they were discussing if it was appropriate for a teacher to have a beer at a friend's cookout if former and future students of hers and their parents would see her. It gave me flashbacks of catching my hair on fire at a country club event that d and I went to about three years ago. It was Klassy for sure. I leaned over the candlelit bar to order another drink because I obviously needed it. It was talked about forever.

Oh my gosh! That is crazy that she got to meet him and also hilarious about the enema! Thanks for the laugh.

When Lexie was three we were on a five hour drive to our annual 4th of July party we go to and she said about ten minutes before we got there that she had to "potty." I pull off on a gravel road and hold her up so she can pee and instead she poops. Not cool kid, not cool.

I think having a beer would be completely acceptable. Now taking shots or catching your hair on fire? Not acceptable. Lol, kidding....to the hair part. Did a bunch burn off? I'm sure it smelled so bad. I was at a wedding this weekend and someone burnt their hair at a nearby table and it smelled bad for 20 minutes.

My favorite color is sage. The last fruit I ate was a strawberry, yum, I love summer and fresh fruit!

For my personal iphone my "case" is black. It's an elastic wallet on the back that holds my credit cards and money. My work iPhone has a huge black battery extending case. It makes my phone like triple the size, I hate it.

Yay, sushi talk! I love my specialty rolls, like the no. 9, BMW roll, spicy snow crab. Anything that has spice, tuna and shrimp is a winner in my book.

She also guilt trips them whenever they leave on vacation.  My parents tell her months ahead of time when they are going to leave, and she always gets huffy and says "well I guess that will be ok".  Throat punch central.   

Is she for real? Good thing they have one daughter that doesn't act like the world owes them!

So Cali has 2 pieces of toast every morning for breakfast. Every morning. A few weeks ago, we were leaving for the cabin early on Sat morning when dh decided to make some peanut butter toast before we left. He was being careless and dropped a huge glob of peanut butter into the toaster! Now, there is no way to clean peanut butter out of the inside of a toaster, believe me, I tried. So into the garbage it went (actually I recycled it, but that doesn't have anything to do with the story).

One agonizing week of toastless breakfasts went by before we went to get a new toaster.

'Can I pick out the new toaster mom?' Cali asked. 'Sure sweets, as long as it not $50, I'm not spending that much on a toaster' I replied. 'ok, I want a purple toaster!' she exclaimed.

Of course she does. Everything she has is purple or Vikings. Her room, her sheets, most of her clothes, all purple. So I told her we'll see what color they have, though I think they only sell black, white or stainless steel. So we go to Target and sure as sh!t, they have a purple toaster. It was only $30, so now we have a lovely purple toaster that actually does work pretty well.

That story is too cute and so funny, thanks for making me smile!

These distractions have sure helped!
