So I've been thinking. . .

Maybe I'll add music to our blog.
Just to bug my older sister.
teehee =D

It's a jungle out there

We love Monk. That's why it was ultra tragic when we were unable to decipher his final words in the season finale. Here's what we thought he said:

Dad: "I get it"
Mom: "I don't get it"
Matt and Camilla: "Oh well"
Bethany: "Okay"

And Grandma simply asked, "What did he say?"

Luckily, I caught the ending the next day, and Andrew hushed his screams for the split second necessary for me to hear, "I don't get it." Mama wins!

Stride Gum

I saw this commercial.
It made me laugh.
Hard.

Musings of a newly "old" woman

I'm still wondering if I really want to turn that particular age which it is rumored that I have recently turned. Think I'll stick with the alleged 39. And the lessons of life which I have learned to date?

1. You'll never change another person's opinion

2. Don't even try

3. Boys and girls (hence, men and women) are different, pretty much from day one

4. Don't even try to change that, either

5. Mama lectures go nowhere fast

6. So do Daddy speeches, but don't tell Dad

7. Band-aids don't have the same magical effect when you grow up

8. Neither does cotton candy

9. Corn on the cob, however, is still one of life's greatest joys

10. And grandkids are as great as everyone said they would be!!!!

Um. . .

Someone said I could have this.

Dream

I had a dream that our family had to go into hiding in Arizona, because Voledmort was coming after us. And the only food we could pack was dry raman noodles and peanut butter.
I guess that's what i get for staying up late and reading Harry Potter 7
