Have you noticed that I tyupe like I play the piano?
Hit as many keys as you can and keep going even even if a few extra sneak in there or get a tad out of order....

I have noticed that. It cracks me up.

Speaking of piano, I keep thinking I should start taking lessons again...but when do I have time? Sigh.

I noticed too or am I three?


Make time dang it.

I've always figured if they get up but they don't come looking for me, they're probably just fine.

But I'm one of the klutziest people you'll ever meet, so I've had a lot of practice in that department...

Youd get along great with my DD we nicknamed her grace...walks into walls, trips over nothing on a wooden floor, falls off her bed, I'd worry but about her but she's been like that all her life.

I was about the same.

There'd be crying in the background at our house, and visiting parents would look at me expectantly. I'd say, "The cat will come get me if it's bad enough."
Puff-n-Stuff was my granny cat (we called her Pooky by then) and she always knew real tears from fake tears. A minor injury and she'd go comfort the kids. A major injury and she'd come get me. When CJ fell out of the bunkbed and lost a tooth (root and all) that cat was running so fast she almost knocked me down before CJ could draw in enough air to scream....


I also like the tactic where if I fight broke out EVERYONE gets punished. I don't even care who or how it strted. If you drag me into it, everybody pays.

Corporal punishment rocks!!! we use it a lot. Yes, you are your brother's keeper and if does something stupid you both pay.

My Dh stated one time that I was starting to sound like my mother. Yep he's still breathing.

nope...I do the same thing. Suck it up, quit crying. I tell them, "you won't die"

I ask them if I need to take them to the hospital for a shot?

mmm...they think a band aid is a cure all.

I have actually said - on more than one occasion...."I am not in the mood to go to the ER today so you'd better not get hurt." Or some variation of that theme...i don't have the gas, I'm too busy, etc etc
