Random Round Up

This is me trying to shove as much as possible into one post during a work break:

Well first off, I have to tell you about Piper’s latest accomplishment.  Poo on the potty.  Imagine my surprise when my daughter casually tells me she has to go to the potty and then proceeds to completely go. I mean the whole nine yards. Needless to say, there has been much praise and excitement going at chez Momish.

All in all, I have to say that those day care folks are doing a great job at potty training my child!

********************************

I got my first speeding ticket ever.  I feel torn over this.  Half of me is bummed that my perfect driving record after 41 years is now tainted.  But the other half of me is carrying that ticket around like a badge of honor. Because after 41 years, I finally own a car that is capable of going over 70 MPH!

********************************

Tonight Piper and I are staying over my sister’s house. My niece is turning 10 and in honor this occasion, she is having a sleep over. With 10 of her friends. My sister is crazy to agree to this, but she is my sister so I feel the need to help her through this momentary lapse of judgement.

If you don’t hear from me ever again, you know why. 

********************************

Let’s talk about Facebook for a minute.  I finally figured all this stuff out.  After months of being poked, challenged, offered gifts, etc. I finally discovered how it all works. I am becoming quite the social butterfly, if I say so myself.  Those of you on Facebook that have sent me questions, gifts, offerings with no response, I thank you for patience and persistence.  But look out! This technical idiot savant has found her Facebook grove. 

The good thing about finally understanding Facebook is that I found a lot of my friends, some of them long lost and out of touch. But I have to admit, for a while there I was having an identity crisis. Ya’ll, I am not shitting you when I say all my friends (you guys included) are totally successful, interesting, ambitious and just downright awesome. Having it all laid out there in plain view kinda makes you evaluate yourself in comparison. This was not a fun exercise for me.

********************************

On another note, I’ve decided to write a book, start my own business, travel the world, run a committee, join a band, star in a theater production and save the world.

********************************

P.S. I gave up potato chips for lent. So far, so good.  If I make it all the way through, I fully expect a Thank You car from my ass come Easter.

Potty-training help for the boys is one of the things that we're really looking forward to with daycare!
