Monday Madness
Name 5 Things that:
Make you smile:
1. Drew saying "Nie nie" when I put him in bed.
2. Finding out that my sister Jennifer and her husband Paul are going to have a baby! Drew is getting a cousin!
3. A really kick-ass song on the radio - you know, the one you do the car-dance to, while passing motorists point and laugh. You know you've all done it. I've pointed and laughed at you.
4. Planting flowers that actually bloom into something beautiful instead of dying from dehydrated neglect.
5. Drew showing his anger at me by hurling his teddy bear to the floor and stomping on it. That'll show me, yes indeed.
You can see on your desk right now:
1. A half-empty can of Diet Coke. (the can of Diet Coke is always half empty, never half full.)
2. A bottle of Burt's Bees Milk & Honey Hand Lotion.
3. Approximately 213 pictures of Drew. Would that count as one item or 213 separate ones?
4. A leather camel. No, it's not a kinky sex toy. It's a...well...a camel. Made out of leather.
5. An ugly green lamp.
Kept you busy this weekend:
1. Trying to keep Drew from incurring additional scrapes.
2. Putting antiseptic on Drew's additional scrapes that were incurred anyway despite my diligent care.
3. Putting antiseptic on scrapes incurred by husband when he decided to weed the brambles beside our house while wearing shorts.
4. Buying more antiseptic.
5. Trying to plan a week-long menu that can consist primarily of ground beef, tuna fish, spaghetti and bread. (yes, it's a non-pay-week.)
You'll be doing this coming week:
1. Finally trying on my costume for the Georgia Renaissance Festival, where I volunteer with a Greyhound Adoption group. Please God, let it fit.
2. Finishing putting away the winter clothes and hanging up the spring clothes.
3. Probably something involving antiseptic.
4. Working some more on Drew's scrapbook.
5. Kissing Drew whenever I can hold him down long enough for him to let me.
You've said to make someone else smile:
1. "If I wasn't married to you, I'd think you were totally hot" - to my husband.
2. "Drew wants to talk to you" - on the phone, to my mother.
3. "You really should go hunting more often" - to my husband.
4. "You have the best cleavage ever" - to my friend Nan.
5. "Cookie?" - to Drew.
What wonderful answers! Welcome to Monday Madness, Amy! I enjoyed my visit, and will be sure to add your link to the participants list asap. Hope to see you back next week!
