Friday Fun Day

Allright so I haven't been posting BECAUSE Blogger in it's infinite wisdom changed how you sign in and SUDDENLY my PASSWORD doesn't WORK. I was extremely irritated (to be nice about it) but after about nine password recovery requests and about three seconds before I threw my computer monitor out a window I finally have it figured out (no thanks to Google or Blogger) and have things set up correctly FINALLY.

I'm still mad, though. There's been so many days I've WANTED to post and I couldn't because blogger apparently sucks LOL. But it's back now and since I have yet to find a BETTER (free) blog then I'll keep sticking with this one thankyouverymuch.

So anyway, my youngest son Bossman had his very first dentist apointment ever today! I went back with him, not because I was afraid he'd be scared, but to make sure he behaved. Lately he's been on a nasty streak that makes me want to rename him "horrible monster." But I shouldn't have worried. He was SO WELL BEHAVED you have NO idea!

As a matter of fact, I was biting my cheeks trying not to laugh my butt off because he was laying SO STILL and kept his eyes closed and I swear it looks like they sedated him before they cleaned his teeth. It was SOOO funny! He looked like he was unconcious! But as soon as the technition and the dentist had their tools out of his mouth he popped right up and started talking so I knew he wasn't paralyzed or anything!!

Afterward we went to Barnes & Nobles so my son The Star could use the gift card he recieved for his birthday. However I mixed up B&N with Borders in my mind and drove to Borders instead. So I had to turn around and drive to Barnes & Nobles. En route I found this radio station that has a "laughing lunch" where they play stand-up comedians and a couple funny skits. We heard one called "Cheech & Chong and Sister Mary Elephont." I have never heard a Cheech & Chong ANYTHING that I thought was funny (I don't dig drug humor - never have), but OMG I was laughing SO HARD that I was CRYING and in real danger of peeing myself. I needed my inhaler and the kids were afraid I'd wreck the car. I'm going to look on YouTube and see if anyone has a link to it I can post.

I was very good and didn't buy anything for myself at B&N even though there was an awful lot of Stephen King that I don't currently own. I may go back and buy "Duma Key" however, but as it is I spent $50 letting all the kids get one book so I'm done for a while haha.

After the bookstore we went to Walmart because Teddy wanted to buy a new fish. When we got to the fish section (pet supplies) we found a happy little 3 year-old girl who had probably every bracelet from the jewelry department that she could reach. It was rather obvious to me that she was not being supervised. We got her name but we couldn't find her mom. The little girl was not worried, she insisted her mom would eventually find her. Still I didn't feel I could just leave her there so I had one of my older kids go find a Walmart employee and after a few minutes of discussion we all decided the walmart employee could take her and make an announcement over the PA system to find her mom. The employee later found us and said she found her mom and she's safe and sound (I hope her parents weren't too worried-but then again she looked like she was on her own for a while with one arm completely covered in bracelets).

Then we headed home. Now we still have chores to do but all in all it was a fantabulously fun Friday!
