The Apple Fell Far From the Tree (at least my side of the tree)

My oldest son continues to amaze me each and every day.  He definitely is quick and witty like his father.  I, unfortunately, cannot claim that this part of him is inherited from me. 
Last night, while Trick or Treating at our Mall, a lady responded to Bert’s “Trick or Treat,” by saying “Trick!  I want [...]

“I Said ‘Hey! What’s Goin’ On?’”

Wow! It’s certainly been a while since I was on here actively posting.  My life has been busy with kids and work, and tutoring at the Elementary nearby.  I needed a “break” from blogging, so I took it.  I’m looking forward to posting more here. 
Some things that have happened during my break?

Mean Mommy Chronicles: Leverage

Bert recently received a Nintendo DS lite for his 5th birthday.  At first I was really hesitant because he’s 5, and that’s an expensive toy.  I tried to convince my husband that it was a bad idea.  Bert got a taste of the Nintendo DS at our workout facility.  It seems that all the boys [...]

This blog post made me laugh today.  I warn you now of its language.

Mean Mommy Chronicles: To Heck With Her, I’m NOT Sitting on My Bed During Time Out!!

The other day my husband and I were in our living room watching TV when Bert came to us with a troubled look on his face.  We have a rule in our house.  The rule is that Mommy has bought you at least a dozen pair of underwear.  If you get your undies wet, and [...]

Instant Kitchen Slip and Slide

The boys and I came into the house a couple weeks ago after being out at the park.  When we came in, I noticed a moldy odor.  I suspected it was my used cleaning rags in the laundry room, so I immediately put them in the washer to wash.  The smell was pretty bad, so [...]

Really, Miss…I Didn’t Steal it!!

So, I’m in Walmart on Sunday morning with my kids checking out with our basket full of groceries.  I had put all the groceries on the conveyor belt and the boys were playing etch-n-sketch on the floor next to me.  I was doing my duty to be “green” by taking my reusable cloth bags out [...]

Mean Mommy Chronicles: Whiny Boys Who Disobey Do Not Get Nature Walks

In this Mean Mommy episode, Bert and Ernie learn are told that it is not a good idea to jump on Mommy’s couches… Whether they learned anything or not remains to be seen.
07/26/2009
“Get off the couches, please.  We don’t jump on the couches,”  Mean Mommy said as she walked from the living room into her [...]

The Big Brother Handbook

Is there a Big Brother handbook somewhere out there written in pictures that teaches the art of pestering your baby brother?  My son has obviously been to the library without me.  Ernie may go crazy from being bothered…and Mommy may go crazy from hearing Ernie’s squeals and cries as Bert bothers him some more. 
Some [...]

Two Things I Dislike

There are two things (among many others) that bother me quite a bit.  Standing in line while watching other people let in their friends ahead of you…and also when people suddenly stop walking in front of you.  Now, put these two together, only put the idiot in a car in front of you, and what [...]

Pottying on the Floor and Proving my Husband Wrong

So, last night I was sweeping/mopping the kitchen and Doc was doing some work on the computer.  Bert was playing and Ernie, well…he was peeing on the floor!!
Yes, you read that correctly!  At first I thought he was just squatting and playing with our shoes in the foyer.  Apparently not.  Our neighbor from across the [...]

ButtMart

When I go to Walmart, I typically see all kinds of people.  Some are made up, some don’t care, some would care if they had the money and others…well, they just need a belt.
Say No to Crack! 
This is the second time I have been exposed to bare butt in this Walmart.  Old butt, young [...]

Workout Trenches—Smells from hell

While at the fitness center this morning, I decided to get on the treadmill and walk.  I had already warmed up and lifted weights and the Young and the Restless was about to come on…sooooo—off the the treadmill I went. 
I’m walking along…a little huffin’ and puffin’ when this lady gets onto the treadmill next [...]

Apparently I am a Little Charlie Brown

Tonight the boys and I were outside while they rode their bikes in the driveway.  I was sitting in my folding chair in the shade.  Ernie came up and was being silly, so I grabbed and tickled him.  Apparently I was also talking to him in a silly manner while this was going on.  Bert [...]

Right is NOT the new Left.

Today as we were driving to our destination for our weeklong vacation, we watched as a person in a truck went by us.  We first noticed the truck because he had a long-haired dachshund sitting in his lap and both Bert and Ernie proclaimed “Hi, Doggy!!”  The dog was hanging out the window and as [...]
