Retaliation

How to retaliate when your son comes over and parks in your driveway.
1. open the garage door
2. start the car
3. rev the engine
4. press on the gas
5. wait for impact
6. take off and go get ice cream
7. come home and look at the big ginormous scratches you put on his car
8. make sure your son is in a good mood
9. give the puppy eyes while trying not to laugh
10. when all else fails do nothing


Here is a picture of those ginormous scratches

Oops can't really see them in that picture

Let me zoom in

Just kiding guys......I had to give you a hard time.

Go Cards

A friend gave us tickets to the Cards game the other day. it was lots of fun except the drunk lady sitting a couple of row behind us cursing up a storm. On the way home we rode the metro link. Not together...Ben decided to take a different train then me but not on purpose. We were running down the ramp to catch the train, as soon as we were about to get on it somebody over the loud speaker said "going straight to fairview heights" so I didn't get on. I thought if we got on that train it would not stop at our stop and go straight to fairview heights. Ben on the other hand got on the train just as the doors where closing. So here I am standing there as the train leaves with Ben on it. You might think no big deal, but I was downtown at night after a baseball game with drunk people. Not to mention I had no money and no cell phone. That was a little scary. I got on the next train and as soon as I got to my stop Ben was standing there waiting for me. That was such a relief.

How you know your family is getting old

You know your getting old when you spend Easter around the blood pressure machine instead of looking for Easter eggs.
We where in the kitchen when somehow we got on the topic about blood pressure and what meds people take for high blood pressure. My Uncle brought up that fact that he has his own blood pressure machine. So he got it out and each one of us got our blood pressure taken to see who had the highest.
We need to get some little kids in this family so we can talk about how many Easter eggs they got instead of what your blood pressure was.

April

It is snowing in April....Need I have to say more?

Viv's Birthday

Happy Pre Birthday to Viv. We celebrated it on Sunday and had a special Sunday birthday dinner! All month long I have been secretly working on a breast cancer quilt for her. It is made out of mostly breast cancer fabric. I was really afraid she wouldn't like it because she really does not like pink. But o well she got the wrong cancer for that. So I gave it to her and she really liked it. She could not believe that I did it all on my own (I secretly know how to sew a little). I am just glad she liked it and now she has a feel good blanket to wrap up in on her bad days. Happy Birthday Viv!

What is he thinking

At my work we have a pond and every year a bunch of geese flock to it. And every year we always have one that lays her eggs either in or next to the parking garage. This year a goose laid her eggs on the outside of the parking garage next to the road. Every day her man is either standing or sitting in the middle of the road. So when a car tries to drive by, the goose who is trying to protect his women goes after the cars. He will run up to moving cars snapping his mouth at the car tiers. It does not matter how big the car is. This all happens right outside of my window at work. One day everybody in my department stood at the window and watched this goose atack every car that went by. We all had a great laugh until our Bose came out of her office giving us the worst look :(
