  • Nearly Wordless Wednesday: Hot Dogs and Warm Heart

    Hotdogswarmheart_2

    My mom is still in the hospital, but she’s doing nicely – thank you for your kind thoughts – so, I was able to spend the last night of spring break with my kids.  But, I was emotionally spent and way too tired to cook.  So, when my kids asked my husband Garth (not his real name) if they could roast marshmallows, I told them that we were all out of marshmallows (stupid food shopping) but, suggested that perhaps they’d like to cook their hot dogs on the fire pit, instead.

    [eyes go wide]

    "For real?"

    You see, 2 of my kids want to go camping…but, the other half don’t like bugs…and thanks to having given birth to all 4…my sciatica does’t do tents, very well…so, roughing-it seems a little too much work, if you ask me.

    Still.

    It warms my mommyblogging heart to get a chance to do something…anything…together and kicking back in our yard is perhaps the closest our family gets to, you know, going wild.

    "Where’s Mini-me?"

    [shrugs shoulders]

    "She said she doesn’t like turkey dogs and is looking for something else to eat."

    [SLAM]

    "Okay, I found some meat-wike-wooking-thing in the fweezer…I think it’s eat-uh-bow!"

    It’s seems like my youngest daughter (she’s 6) can fend for herself and doesn’t have a problem playing "survivor girl," thankyouvermuch!

  • Nearly Wordless Wednesday: Spring Cleaning Disclosed

    Swifferdustbunnies

    Killer dust bunnies…they are EVERYWHERE!

    Disclosure:  No, I have NOT been paid to post this picture, or by anyone for that matter, in a very long time, if you must know.  I spent my husband’s money (being a full-time Domestic Goddess doesn’t pay very well) nor, should this blog post be considered a product endorsement.

    I heart Swiffer!

    Sheesh, and I remember the days when blogging used to be so gosh-darned easy ;o)

  • Nearly Wordless Wednesday: Mini-me Under Wraps and The Great Blog Hunt

    Minimechillywilly_2

    My poor Mini-me is feeling under the weather, today.  No worries, she’s snug as a bug in a rug and wrapped in her favorite Mickey Mouse blanket.  Her daddy’s coming home early, so I can go and play with the other mommies, later.

    [crossing fingers and ripping into a box of Midol]

    While I’m away, there’s some fun stuff going on in the blogosphere this month and you know that I just HAD to throw my dishrag into the ring.

    I am participating in The Great Blog Hunt and would love for you (yes, YOU!) to win one of the very cool prizes, just by visiting with a few good blogging friends-o-mine!

    Here’s the information on how to participate:

    Eastercrack

    Holy Hannah Montana – it’s a basket built for 4 – either the Easter Bunny’s getting really, really lazy, or they were running low on Easter supplies at ALL the bunny markets, or maybe a little of both…damnit!

    So, Thing Two says, "Gosh, but it was windy today and good thing you remembered to move the basketball net, like Daddy asked you!"

    Basketballcloser_2

    Then, I say, "OH SNAP…I didn’t…but, good thing I can move the car, before Daddy gets home, and forget that this eeeeeeeh-vuh happened…that is…if YOU know what’s good for you!"

    Thank you.

    A kiss, on the cheek, is very sentimental but big brothers are a girl’s best friend – especially, when start bringing their cute friends home!
