I Found It!

Remember how I looked in all the random places for the video last night?? Today I found the video in the suitcase that holds all our dvds.  Yeah – it was in it’s place (as in “a place for everything and everything in it’s place).  I kept it together, laughed, and put it right back on the top of the tv – right where it’s not supposed to go but always is. (a.k.a it’s new place).

Happy Birthday, Mo

Remember the meme I did the other day? One of the questions was your best friend’s nickname. . .

I have known Mo (Monica) since 7th grade – we went to college together – were in each other’s weddings – and now live a $70 Southwest ticket distance apart that might as well be $4,000 for all the free time we have to jaunt back and forth visiting. Anyway. . .

Mo turns the same age as me today: the same day that I put my peel and stick chalk board pieces up.

Don’t you love how I have stragegically placed the children’s calendar by the outlet that has NO protective covers. For Pete’s Sake!

The Edge

I think I have reached it – the edge, I mean.

Last night Honey was preparing to go run. We have discussed this new means for exercise accountability – he will go run and I will do my indoor walking video while he is gone (we can’t both leave, right?). I couldn’t find my video last night.

I looked for it all around the entertainment center as I cleaned up the stack of books KB had pulled out(for the third time that day)and, for some reason, didn’t have to clean up. Not there. I looked in drawers, under the couch, in the kitchen, on the floor of the back porch. These places sounds random but they are typically where one might find a missing object in my home.

Honey left to run. I sat down on the couch and cried harder than I have cried in AGES.

“Over Leslie Sansone?” my husband later asked.
NO over the fact that I spend every day with children who at any moment could pick up any random thing and move it to a place of mystery. Mystery because all three of my children are basically unable to communicate with me. I am ready to purge every inch of my house just so there is less to lose.

Pity party over.
Thank you for coming.
Watch your step on the way out.
