Is it the little tings....

There was a story in one of the papers about a mom who got arrested for a parking ticket and she was all happy because she would get a rest, I think it was in Europe somewhere. I could totally relate

When Jillian or Frankie are doing things that really annoy me, I'll usually just hang out in the office or bedroom for 2-3 hours... however long it takes me to miss them


Jillian has a REALLY bad habit of taking out every single toy from the toy box as I'm running around the house picking them up so that I can vacuum. if annoying me that way doesnt please her - after i'm done vacuuming the whole house she'll go outside, bring in rocks, branches, or cooking wood and shred them all over the place.

if somehow I manage to not get completely angry at her then... she usually continues by A. finding a towel and ripping it to shreds or B. pees on the floor so that it runs under the fridge or dishwasher..., or C. tears up the trash

I just cant see how some people think dogs are dogs, when my "dogs" act like 4 yr old terrorists

Kimmy darling forget the shower. Go take a long hot bubble bath and read a good book. It's your turn to be inconsiderate. Anyone says anything just point out how you feel, and until people start being more considerate of you than this is how it is going to be.


(((BIG HUGS))))

Lol, you sound just like me. Except I don't have any kids. Things just naturally drive me nuts. The milk thing is a huge thing for me. Not shutting a kitchen cabinet is also another. As well as the toilet seat. The remote thing, I don't know I am hardly ever in control of it. Another thing that will set me off is, I will be loading the dishwasher, hubby walks by and puts his glass in the sink, he can't take the extra half a step to put it in the dishwasher while it's open.

The thing I love most is, when they leave just enough ceral in the box for you to just get a slight taste of it or maybe if your lucky one whole bite. Oh yea that one is almost on the top of my list. Lol.

LOL.... I forgot all about the closed door things! Like the basement door so the cats can't get down there. This morning I came downstairs and both the back door to the mudrom was open as well as the front door to the porch was open. Luckily, the back door from the mudroom was NOT opened, but last summer it "accidentally" was open a few times. Meanwhile, all the cats were running out the door~ Its not hard to shut a door... at least in my experience.

Also:
~We have a no shoe in the house rule. All shoes must be taken off before they reached carpeted areas. Why then do I always see sneakers on teenaged feet? Then THEY at ME when I point out their feet. I didn't make the rule up, their father did!

~ The kids wait til the LAST minute for things. Like Sunday is Tony's prom. He didn't think about a tux until last night -- "Oh dad, when will we get my tux?" Heather has a pool party at school TOMORROW, and decided to wait til last night to tell us her bathgsuit from last year doesn't fit..... so off we went to buy a bikini and rent a tux. NOT my idea of what I wanted to do last night.

~ Asking the same question repeatedly and not getting an answer. Tony's prom is Sunday (I covered that didn't I?) and I have asked him a hundred times what type of flowers does she want. I even asked HER... and they just shrug. But last year when I made the executive decision and went with what I thought would be nice, they complained that nobody else carried a boquet. They all wore corsages. Well? This year I wanted to know WHAT type of corsage.. and they are *thinking* a boquet would be more fun since they are different anyway!

Oh Calgon, take me away!
