Funny Things
Most of my posts are quite serious, so I felt the need to do a funny post.
It's late at night and I really should be trying to sleep, but instead I wanted to update my blog for the three people that I know of that read my blog on a regular basis.
I have to share cute stories about my son, well, because he is my whole world. We have a picture of Pope John Paul II in our son's room. When I need to change his diaper, I'll say to him, "Would you like to go see the Pope?" And he usually will lift up his right arm, head straight for the stairs to his bedroom and will say "Poe, poe..." It is the funniest thing ever.
This past week I did a bad thing. I went to Sam's Club and I was looking at the laundry detergent trying to figure out which one to buy. They had a "green" laundry detergent. I was comparing prices, looking at ingredients. I decided to wait on the laundry detergent and stacked the laundry detergent back on top of another bottle of the same laundry detergent. I pushed the cart down the aisle and then I heard the sound of plastic hitting the ground and I whipped around and to my dismay, the laundry detergent that I was just looking at was gurgling out all over the floor. I even heard my son go, "uh oh" and I quickly moved away from the aisle hoping that no one had seen me. I knew that the right thing would be to go up to someone and admit what I had done so it could be cleaned up before someone slipped on it, but I was so chicken. As I was shopping, I heard a page, "Maintenance 170, Maintenance 170." And finally after maintenance didn't answer, it was, "Go to the detergent aisle to clean up a spill!" It's usually my son that is causing the messes but this time it was me.

This was cute. I could just see you racing down an "alternate" aisle to get away from the clean up squad. Wanted to make sure I was counted among the three that read your blog. I'm overdue on my blog but I did submit something to Newsweek. I will email you later. Lots of love to you and your family in the meantime.
Newsweek! My goodness, I need to get your autograph as I know someone on the brink of being a celebrity. Of course you are amongst the three. I just wonder if there are any lurkers out there? Come out, come out, wherever you are!
