Chatterbox
Time for a post! I just thought .."Hey I haven't seen my boss today"...And then I remembered that I did see him for two minutes this morning. This has been a lonely week for me:( I should have some free time this weekend, so that's something to look forward to:) I love my children so much, but sometimes a mom has to have a break. Will is a chatter box. He calls "Mama" every two seconds to tell me something. Sometimes I tell him that Mama needs some alone time. The other day he was playing in his room and I walked in to tell him something. He told me that he needed alone time to play. He also told me that he needed alone time to read last night. At least he gets it. He has my attention plenty! Five year olds just have a lot to say. Conversations with them are better than with most adults:)
I cleaned out my car at lunch and it was gross! When we are running late in the mornings, sometimes I let Will eat a Pop Tart in the car on the way to school. There were crumbs everywhere back there! On top of that, the car smelled funky. The reason is because I was running really late yesterday and Liza had not had breakfast or a bottle. What to do? I gave it to her in the car. She can hold it herself. Normally this is taboo in my book, but my mother said "oh, go ahead and give it to her in the car." "We used to do it all the time." (That was the early 80's. I used to ride standing up in the front seat of the car with no seat belt on the way to school! In the 70's no one looked twice at a prego woman smoking either. It was actually common! They would booze and smoke it up! Oh, the times they are a changing. Every decade more safety rules, codes, etc and more crazy people. Can a kid ride their bike around the neighborhood without their mother worrying these days? Hardly.) So, I cringed, but said okay. I was really late. On the way to school Liza turned the bottle upside down and dripped milk all over her sock and romper. By the time I got her to the nursery, she was sopping wet. I grabbed her bag and the bottle packed in it had leaked! Everything was wet! Liza, the bag, and my car. Thankfully, she had a change of clothes in her cubby there at the nursery. My car reeked today. Milk must have seeped into the floor board of the car.
It's clean now. The smell is gone after I Resolved and Fabreezed the crap out of everything. I drug out the ole Shop Vac too. Crumbs, sand, and funky odors be gone.
In other news I have an eye infection. I have to take these drops 4 times a day for 7 days. If both eyes looked like the one eye, then I'd look like I've been smokin crack or been on a binge. Sounds attractive, huh? I'm smooth like that.
I can't believe I posted a blog about my ole smelly nasty car. Off to find something to do!
