I know I need to write a new post. I’ve needed to for quite some time. I’ve started quite a few and then hesitated right before it’s time to hit “publish.” My issue is that every time I finish writing and reread what I just wrote, it is such a yawnfest that I just can do that to you guys. I’m sorry. I’m really boring lately. Here’s how life has been lately:
- Have the kids still been sick off and on? Check
- Are my psycho neighbors-Bubba and Sally May still inbred, redneck hillbillies? Check
- Is my MIL still a nutjobber that I’m convinced should be commited? Checkity Check
- Am I still madly in love with the Trav? Biiig Check
As you can see, our lives are pretty much the same here lately. Thing 1(when she’s healthy) is going to school. Thing 2 is still hanging with me. His vocabulary is growing by the day and it’s awesome! I can brag on my husband for a second. He was selected to take a course for his job where he and 16 other men took a week long class and then tested over the material at the end of the week. He passed the test with flying colors and scored the highest in his class. He likes to portray himself as the hardworker and never as the smart guy. He sells himself short…very short! He is very intelligent! I’m so proud of him!!
In closing, I’ll leave you with a little conversation with Thing 1 that still has me freaking out:
Thing 1 and I were walking from my bedroom to the living room and I casually placed my hand on her shoulder. She stopped in her tracks and gave me this weird look and said “Um… did you just wipe a booger on me?” I looked at her with curiosity and fear and said “No, why would you ask such a thing?” She continues to look at me and shrugs and says “Well, when I touch you like that…that’s what I’m doing.” Every time that kid touches me, I’m searching for boogers for a good 10 minutes now. Happy Wednesday!!!
