A Good Night's Sleep

I just want to say thank you to my sweet son Jacob. He slept all night in his "toddler bed" for the first time last night!

Get A Clue You Idiot!

Sometimes, I think that it would be better if parents have to pass some sort of licensing test. I mean, some people are not good drivers and manage to get a drivers license. But this parental license might keep the super-bad, utterly horrible parents from reproducing.

There would be simple rules to life after being granted parental licenses.

1. You must love your child!

2. You must be able to put your child first, (no matter how selfish you were in you pre-parental days).

3. You must feed the child.

4.You must wash the child.

5. Protect the child against all dangers. (That would be real or the imagined kind... because it's really,really dark in their bedroom.)

6.You must put shoes or at least socks on your child's feet. Even if this means you yourself must go without shoes and/or socks. (see rule #2)

Come on people! Really...? Is it that hard to put some damn shoes on your kids bare feet... (we are talkin' toddler child, not a smarmy 15 year old)... before you take them out to Big Lots? It was way cold this last weekend. "Can I see your parental license please?"

Sometimes

I wish I could just slap the poop outta' my husband! That might make me fel better.

Yellow snow might be yummy...

When is the last time any of us have had snow cream? For many North-Georgians, I am guessing it's been awhile. So, now is the time to take advantage!

Use good clean snow. After you have a dusting, get ready to harvest your snow. Better to collect while it's falling. Then add sugar,vanilla extract, milk... measurement is not a science I use for this. It is kind of a "eye ball it" and a "to taste" type thing. Therefore, you decide your own consistency and sweetness.

This will give it a yellow hue...

Enjoy!

So this is christmas....?

Well, gone are all the duties that come with the holiday season. That is for the vast majority of christmas celebrators that work themselves into a tizzy. Luckily, I am not one of those fools.... I mean folks.

We got to enjoy a couple of long weekends with our sweet boy. It made it hard to back and face a full work week today. But, so is life. I am glad i actually have a wonderful job to go back to.

Happy new year to all, and to all a good night!
