Friday Fragments

It's time for Friday Fragments with Mrs. 4444. It is a wonderful way to download your brain. You should give it a try!

* I found my dog on the kitchen table eating my son's abandoned breakfast. I don't mean he was standing on the floor or chair with his paws on the table. His ENTIRE 22 pound self was on top of the table going to town. I didn't know who I wanted to yell at first....the furball who had the audacity to climb up on my table or the Big Kid who went off to do who-knows-what leaving his breakfast behind.

* I've been watching American Idol and am beginning to wonder what the judges were thinking. I haven't heard anyone that can sing very well yet. Is it just that this show has been on for so long that all the talent has been used up?

* I took my son to the doctor this week and left with 2 appointments for myself. Only I can manage that one. I'm beginning to wonder what I got myself into.

* My boys completed their Pinewood Derby cars and are ready for the big race on Saturday! They worked hard and are proud of their creations. Now if only the weather would cooperate.

* I tried a new recipe for dinner and I think the world came to a temporary halt....ALL 3 of my kids liked it and asked for more.

* Looks like my meeting for the Middle Child's IEP will be snowed out tomorrow, AGAIN!!  This was a reschedule already!

* Snow has become the bane of my existence. I was prepared for this storm though....I hit the liquor store first.

* You can view my latest rants about the snow, including a letter to Mother Nature here and here.

I am sure wishing you would send some of that snow our way. It has been such a mild winter here. I was hoping for more. I guess we always want what we don't have huh? I agree completely on American Idol. Nothing has impressed me yet. Have a great Friday!!

You have your priorities straight- liquor store first! :)

What did you make that was a hit with all your kids?

IF, IF , IF our tiny mini wiener pups could get on the table they totally would! They can jump up on the couch and get on the coffee table but there is RARELY food there!

I know just what you are saying about this snow. It seems as though winter will never ever end! : (

Funny about the dog and the breakfast and not knowing who to yell at first : )

I remember the Pinewood Derby days. Grandpa4444 "helped" Kyle build a few. Fortunately, he never won a race, and I was glad, since it would have been embarrassing to me to win when Kyle really had very little to do with building the car.

It snowed all day today, but only an inch or so altogether; so beautiful. I wouldn't mind a snow day; we haven't used ours up yet!

That dog would be lucky to be alive...

I hope you did well at the Pinewood Derby. What kind of car was it? I am guessing you made it look like a Batmobile:) My 9 yr old son just finished his derby season and we're already looking forward to next year.
