Saturday Mom Confession #15
Saturday, September 26, 2009 at 9:52AM I haven't done anything earth shatteringly terrible to The Goobs lately, but there are (of course) a few things I am less than proud of, and I will share because I don't want my friend Tressa to feel alone today.
- Anemone has developed a decidedly, um, unusual sense of fashion. We argued loudly about it on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. On Friday, I let her go out looking like the pet monkey of a colorblind Appalachian child. And on the inside, I was laughing.
- I made The Goobs eat this for dinner:

- JellyMan needed an hour long lecture and quite possibly an old fashioned beating yesterday, but I just pretended I didn't hear what he said. Lazy, lazy, lazy.
- I am not taking Sue the Hamster to Hawaii. Tears have been shed, but not by me.
There you go, people. Feel better about yourselves, because you could always be worse.

Thank you! I was feeling pretty lousy yesterday. Good thing he still loves me. Um.. what is that for dinner? It looks good, but not kid friendly. What were you thinking? LOL at the hamster.
Ugh. That was a beef pie that went very, very wrong.
Very Wrong Beef Pie. LOL
You are not taking Sue the Hamster to Hawaii!? You're a mean mom! What are you going to do with it? Shoot it? Just asking.
Your first mistake was thinking peas and carrots could be combined. Good Grief woman, what's wrong with you?
If being a parent has taught me anything, it's that Food Must Never Touch Other Food. Mixing things together in the same dish would cause flat out apoplexy around here. Of course, there might be occasions where things get ground up by my handy-dandy stick blender, but we never speak of it.
On Friday, I let her go out looking like the pet monkey of a colorblind Appalachian child.
I think you just described my own clothing style at times LOL :-P
My pet monkey's name was Miss Match.
Peas and carrots in one dish, maybe even in the same bite. O_O
LOL Cousin JimBob's pet monkey was named HeyYouGetBackHereWithThatHatBeforeISkinYouYouNoGoodMonkey.
LOL Thatisonelongname!!!
Pet monkeys aren't so bad. I keep one that masquerades as an almost-3-year-old girl; I pretend she's my human daughter. Sometimes she seems almost human.
Seeing your photo of food-like substance reminded me that I haven't eaten dinner yet (it's only 11:30pm, the night is young!), then caused me to lose my appetite (good thing, it's 11:30pm, and I just want to go to bed). No point, really, other than that was an interesting experience to have over the course of 2 seconds.
