Good luck with that

So have you ever noticed when people have been looking for something and find it they say

"Yeah, it was like, in the last place I looked."

Really, you didn't look in a couple more places after you found it?

Uh.

Yippeeee

Today Blaine came home with the BEST NEWS EVER.
Nope, no lottery.
We aren't going on vacation to Disneyland or Hawaii.
Ben did not get discovered for a major movie deal allowing us to live a glamorous Hollywood lifestyle. Stealing all his hard earned profits so later he can sue us and seek a parental divorce.

Something even better.

We're getting rid of the hamster.

Anyone who's ever had a hamster (and successfully gotten rid of it) is celebrating with me. Anyone who still has a hamster is loathing me, jealousy threatening to take over their entire existence. And anyone who has never had a hamster; just wait someone will offer you a free one someday.

See ya never stinky

It's nice to have you back

So I mentioned I hate living in Arizona, right?
I went temporarily insane when I was there. It was too hot for hair.

The sweetest sweetness that ever was...Roxy.

Last night Roxy was snuggling with me in my chair and she said 'you're so pretty mom'. I told her she didn't have to say that just because I'm her mom, if she didn't think I was pretty that's OK. But she insisted I'm pretty. I didn't really believe she thought that because she talks about my zits so much. When I expressed that to her she gently put her hand on my cheek and said -

"You're prettier than you think you are mom".

And I cried.

It makes me so mad

Today at lunch I ran over to Walmart. When I got out of my car there was a little boy about 4yrs old near my car. No mom in sight. When I asked him where his mom was he pointed the other direction and started walking over there. So I followed him, I needed to make sure he got back to a responsible gaurdian.

FOUR rows away we found his mom. She was sitting in her SUV with the door open talking on her cell phone.

She didn't even know he had wandered off.

It made me feel really good to return him to his responsible gaurdian.
