Tomato gone. Yeah nothing to say there. Granny Smith was here this afternoon and ole Jackson did some picking. Love it. Delaney talked Granny into picking mulberries off a tree in the back yard and then continued to talk her into making "flushies" (aka slushies) out of these berries. So out with the blender....................and it spills all over the carpet in the dining room. Nice. Just good to see that my mom got a taste of what happens to me on a daily basis here. I will also tell you that I had to question if this was my mother. As I know for sure that my mother wouldn't have fallen for the "Let me Make a Flushy" trick. Wonder why she didn't answer the phone when we were gone..................maybe she has more of an idea after spending 6 hours with ole Delaney and Jackson.
Jeff and I ran to Sioux City this afternoon to start putting together everything for our vacation to San Antonio.........17 hours in a vehicle with 3 kids. NUTJOBS!!!! What was I thinking? So Kennedy got a mom and dad day....which is really good for her. Amazing how much she talks when it is just her and when someone listens to her!
So the last stop on our outing was a quick run into Barnes and Noble.........looking for my next book.....you know the sequel to "I Was A Good Mom Before I Had Kids" and yeah so I go to the parenting section and it isn't there. So I have to go and ask a lady at the customer service desk for help finding the book. "What title please?" Umm.........."I Would Trade My Husband For a Housekeeper"...........she is an older lady.........she has no idea what my story is...........but she looks at me over her reading glasses and just smirks. Umm hmm. Just take me there woman. So she does.............into the Love and Sex section. Seriously...........I wouldn't have looked there for it.........right next to the Kuma Sutra books..........you know I have 3 kids.......seriously Love and Sex......not so much. I won't go on. But I proudly pick up my new book and pay for it and go to the van. Jeff wants to know what book I bought. So I show him and he says "Oh one of those male bashing books huh?" What is he talking about? I just looked at him and said, "No not male bashing, that would be such a waste of my time." Point made.
