Hurricane Advice

[Kiki]

folks you'll find this funny... Grand daughter (18 months old) threw a full blown tantrum when she was informed she had to leave the pasture and the birds. My DIL didn't find humor in my reaction.

I have thrown my fair share of tantrums today too.

My dictator just informed me that I didn't cut his apple right.
I handed him the knife and walked away before I threw another tantrum.

What did you do?
Laugh ?

Can we blame @KikisGirls for keeping this thread going? Yes, I do believe she is the instigator. Although, I MIGHT have contributed a weansy bit. It did help save what little bit of a mind I have left during the hurricane. Especially when the crazy lady tells me to go away, in a very loving way, of course.

So random question, when I tell crazy lady that I brought home a dead bird for supper, why does that annoy her? I said "I got chicken" and she wanted to know why we needed more. <yeah, right?!?!> Where is that fine line between communication and "I have no idea what you are talking about?"

I will refuse this blame.

It's all of us in this together.

Yes! I laughed so hard I thought I would pee myself. She's home with the boys all day, every day and she knows tantrums = immediate bed time. Not so for mom... She know's whose number she has.

My grand dad pointed out that no one trusted grand parent advice and no one was interested in great grandparent advice. Now let's think about this for a moment... Parents are all armatures. Grandparents are not much better. Great grand parents have been around the block a couple of time--but no one is interested in their input. First calls I made when my grandson was born was to grandpa... "How do I become a good grandparent?

I'm impressed!!! 6 generations still alive and kicking?! I guess I shouldn't be that surprised...I work in a physical rehab center but the bottom floor is long term care - we have about 5 residents out of 64 who are 100+ and still very spry!

I'm trying to think of something witty and funny to say/report but all I can do is dwell on the fact it's hot and humid out and I just got bitten by a zillion mosquitoes taking care of the chickens for the evening!!!
