Just Wondering....

So I am just sitting here today bored as I could possibly be. Both boys asleep and Maggie is watching TV and I have almost got my house suitably clean. I even washed one set of curtains which I have never in my life done. But as I am sitting here I am pondering some of lifes greatest mysteries.

#1 Why is when 1 kid gets sick they all do? I was just bragging about how none of them had been sick (really sick for a while) and then it hit. It hit hard core. Mag and Connor with the stomach flu and Sam with fever, bronchitis, throat and sinus infections. Mag and Connor are good to go now but Sam is still fairly poor feeling but getting better as the days go by. My real mystery surrounding this is why does it never happen when Keith is off work. He was off work for 4 days two weeks in a row and all was well and as soon as he goes back it hits.\

#2 Why is it that if my daughter falls asleep for 10 minutes she will stay awake till midnight? I am sitting here watching her watch TV and looking really sleepy I keep reminding her do not fall asleep because you are not staying up all night tonight. 5 min reenergizes her for the night and she has been like that since she was a baby.

#3 Why do I feel motherly towards my husband? Almost like I want to protect this 6 foot 4 200lb man. The guys he works with told him if he didn't bring supper into work tonight they were going to grease him. I am not entirely sure what that means but it doesn't sound all that pleasant. He said he is not spending 100 dollars on food for these guys so he will take it if it comes. To each there own. I would have brought the stupid supper. Hopefully they were just joking but I am pretty sure my husband works with some colorful characters. Anyways hoping he is having a good night at work and doesn't come home black as night.

#4 What has happened to TV? There is nothing good on and nothing that I like to watch is really appropriate to watch with my kids bc of language and other questionable content. Regular cable is getting racier all the time.

#5 Why when my son pees in the potty does he never hit the potty? Potty training a boy is a lot different than a girl.

#6 How cool is it that Stephanie Tanner on Full House is wearing an outfit that I had as a kid ? (Well I am pretty sure it was hand me downed from my sister but I did wear it) Who would have thought that Danny Tanner shopped at Wal-Mart. At least Full House is one show we both enjoy together.

#7 Why do we not have a four wheel drive vehicle now that we live out in the country?

#8 Why does my youngest son think his favorite birthday toy the ball popper (this toy that blows balls out the top) is a storage place for everything he doesn't know what to do with? Right now it doesn't blow any balls out because it is housing a old honey bun, an ornament, and a bottle of infants tylenol. (Which I need to be giving him right now) Daddy needs to get a screw driver and take it apart and clean it out and get it back in working order.

#9 Why did my daughters friends at school have to tell her that they think hot dogs are made from pigs bottoms and now she won't eat them. I was totally going to feed my kids a hot dog for supper but that killed that idea for me.

#10 Why is it that my husband will not change the belt in my van that squeals so loud when I start it. How embarassing. My kids are in the car covering there ears until it gets warm enough and stops and I am pretty sure the other morning my neighbor came out to see if we were ok. It is so loud. He says its nothing to worry about and apparently he isn't worried and it really is just worse when it is cold but driving the ghetto mobile is getting old. If you see him tell him to throw me a bone and get to fixin. LOL!

Anyways hope you are all pondering issues as big and important as I am today. LOL! Enjoy your snow day.
