Jack woke me up at 6:30 this morning. I was so bummed. Usually on the days I do not have to go to work (Tuesday and Thursday), the kids and I sleep till 7:00. I was really hoping for that extra 30 mins but not today. It started out to be my usual Thursday, laundry, house cleaning and whatever I wanted until I had to leave to pick up the kids (Katie and Jack) from pre-school.
Well, I had tons to do, mow the yard, register Katie for after-school care, go to the grocery store and I still was feeling not quite right. Some where in the middle of all that I put a chicken in the oven to cook the rest of the after noon. So by the time Phil got home I was exhausted. We finished getting dinner ready and all five of us sat down to dinner. Unless Phil is working late we usually all have dinner together.
So I am completely exhausted but starving, Phil worked out in the heat today so he is about the same........what am about to tell you will completely mortify my mother.......but I am going to tell you any way because it is just down right funny.
We are sitting at the table and Jack says he has to go poop. The bathroom unfortunately is about 5 steps from the dinning room table. Katie complains that Jack is going to stink up not only the bathroom but the dinning room as well. This turns into a huge disagreement as to who stinks up the bathroom worse Katie, Jack or Daddy and Katie and Jack wanted me to be the judge. need I say anything more??
I get Katie back to eating, Maddie eating her veggie puffs and Jack serenades with a sounding off of toots echoing from the toilet. I thought I was going to have to use the Heimlich on Phil and I have lost control of the table again. Mind you while all of this is going on I still have the worst sinus headache.
So again I gain control of the table, Phil no longer is needing oxygen, I start talking to Maddie and feeding he some food. Suddenly, it dawns on me,"Katie just tooted." I turned and looked at her because she did not excuse herself. I asked her if she just tooted. She told me NO. I looked at her and said are you lying??? She very plainly says YES. Dumbfounded, I had no comment and Phil was on his way to almost needing oxygen again laughing so hard.
There were so many words I wanted to say to Phil at that point, I couldn't because my luck they would be repeated at school tomorrow and I would get a call. I hate calls from the Directors office. They usually include some mortifying thing Jack did that I am so glad I am learning about it over the phone instead in person. That's a whole nother blog day though.
Needless to say, my bed is calling, I have no idea what happen to the normal people that used to live in my house. I am using Normal as a reletive term. If I find them I will let you know.
Hope someone laughed over this because there was nothing more I can do today.
