Ghost....

Last night I asked Rylan to get in the shower....

I hear the water running and running and running. Seeping out from under the doorway is this cloud of white, as you get closer it sticks to the back of your throat.

I bang of the door ' Hey, what are you doing?'


Rylan ' aw nothing' You can hear him scramble from behind the door.


I roll my eyes thinking who knows what in the hell he is doing. I ask once again, now in my mom voice 'what are you doing?'


Rylan 'look..open the door and look.'

I try the door it is locked (we have a rule around my house NO locked doors), I bang on the door and shout ' it is LOCKED.' I can hear him scramble to get to the door (mind you my bathroom is not that big). He swings the door open and proclaims 'Ta-da'

He must have seen the suprise on my face as I spat out ' what?' The bathroom is covered with babypowder, along with every part of his body. It is a mess.


He interjects ' I am a ghost'. All you can see are the whites and the green in his eyes.

Me ' of course you are.' I smile, half giggle and just close the door behind me.

I shout thru the closed door ' get in the shower already'.


Now we are out of baby poweder, but he did make a darn good ghost.
Thank god for the tender hearts of kids and the times when they make me smile even when I don't want to....

*Please be careful today, it is slicker than snot out there.
I made it to work, but I am leaving by noon ( If I last that long).

Good grief! That's hilarious. Good for you too for not hollering at him, he was obviously pleased with himself. :)

Pyper is 18! Watch out World, she is coming for you!

Dear gawd we made it kid!!  18!  Do a dance, break out the drinks!   You were born wild and smiling.   I never knew how much I wanted to be a mom, until I was one.   Ry, even despite his health issues was an easy baby compared to this girl child of mine.  I tell people I think God was drunk when he handed out kids to me and Lance.  Like - did he really know what he was doing, it's all questionable, even today.  You were born to light up a room with your mischievous smile and warm eyes that capture a soul with a glance.  I've seen her dad melt the moment she walks into a room.   Even to this day, her father seems mesmerized by her at times.   And I find myself screaming - NO, don't look at her, she is in TROUBLE.   DO NOT look at her and her pretend sad face.     He thinks she hangs the moon and the stars, and, in his world, she wants to - even to this day.   They are too total peas in a pod.  Which is probably why today I am not sure who tends to want to annoy me more on th

REALLY STUPID..

Disclaimer - I truly luv my hubby. But I swear I think he inherited two STUPID genes. Not just one, but two.... Here is sample of his most recents stupid incident. ***************************************** Last night I get home, and demand that he go by Sears and pick up a new grill. I state, 'just put it on the card, and we will pay it off on payday.' *I do not encourage credit card use, it makes me break out in hives, but we need this today. My comment triggered a previous conversation Lance had prior to my arrival home from work. He states ' Oh, by the way Michelle, speaking of the card, I put $895.00 on it today.' I laugh out loud and state 'No you did not.' He smirkes, 'Yeah, I did. Some guy called on the phone and said if we spent $895 today he could save us $3,000 in credit card debt.' I look at him and state 'we dont' have $3,000 in credit card debt - so how could us spending 895 be any help. Dear god.' Did you give them your soc

Joke - NOT funny.

Here is glimpse into how dysfunctional we really are........ I have been feeling crappy since last Sunday. I mean really crappy - tired, cranky, sick to my stomach, feeling like I want to puke ALL the TIME. Any woman reading this knows these are clear signs are someone being pregnant. (OMG, I HATE that word). After having Pyper I had an IUD put in, this thing is suppose to last for 5 yrs, and suppose to be 98% effective. I know, probably TMI, but come on, I don't want anymore kids. So this was my way of making sure I was 98% safe and sound. Because we all know dear ol' hubby won't do anything about it.....he was suppose to get snipped. Once again TMI. Anyway, so my symptoms have not subsided. I looked at Lance last night and we talked it over and decided we should just take a damn test to be sure that I was not with child. *cringe* The pit in the bottom of my stomach grows larger, just the possibility of it makes me break out in hives. However Lance, walks around
