PMS and other stuff



This was me yesterday. 

After cleaning the house from top to bottom (including mopping the kitchen and scrubbing toilets...well the toilets that haven't been shattered by my terrorist cat) I told LaLa "Do NOT make a mess!"  The first thing she did when she got home was ask for a snack, then she proceeded to throw the wrapper on the floor.  I burst into tears.  Irrational?  Probably.

Conversation from last night while I was trying to get LaLa in bed:
Me- Hey kid, time for bed.
LaLa- I don't want to go to bed.
Me- Don't you want to go to school?
Her- umm yes.  I mean no!
Me-  It was a rhetorical question, get your PJ's on.
Her- What is rhetorical?
Me-  It means it doesn't matter what your answer was, you're still going to bed.

Motherly teaching at it's finest I tell you!!

I just had a cheesey chicken burrito for breakfast.  Don't judge me people.

    I just laughed for the first time today, then promptly got weepy. Now I'm eating chocolate chip cookies - we're walking clichés!

    What's wrong with a chicken burrito? I just ate a piece of pizza. Is that wrong too?

    There are very few things that aren't fixed by burrito.

    I had the same old oatmeal for breakfast, so a chicken cheese burrito sounds like heaven my friend.

    And right next to the rhetorical questions is "Because I said so."

    I sometimes tell my kids not to do something because if they fall and hit their heads, their brains will fall out. Terrible, I know, but it works!

    Nothing wrong with a burrito for breakfast as long as you resisted the margarita.

    When PMS strikes the only cure is to eat what ever you want. No judgement here! Been there, done that...will do it again in 24 days!

    Ha! This is hilarious. Er, the comic, not you, dear. A cheesey chicken burrito sounds like the right thing for a day like that. Maybe followed up with a bit of chocolate!
