Yes, More Chocolate Aqua


Why, yes that is the same color combo I just told you you'd be seeing more of. So, you were warned. But I think, just like so many other things in life, I'm over it. I think next time I might use at least one color you guys aren't used to seeing. Hmmm, we'll see.

I don't have a lot going on to tell you guys about right now. But next week, the elementary school (once again) has a whole week of half days. So, if I live thru the week (of course, it's not me you should really worry about - kidding!...sorta) I'm sure something riveting will come up.

I would like to just ask one thing, tho. Why is it, that when a child (all 3 of mine are guilty of this, btw) spills something on the table, they just stand there and stare at it? Is it really mesmerizing to watch how the liquid spreads across the table? Or the neat waterfall effect of it going over the table and onto the floor? And those of you who haven't been to our house, we have carpet under our kitchen table. Yeah, that's biiig fun. Hey, I've been trying to get that carpet pulled for years and replaced with anything but carpet, but Shawn says, "we're not replacing anything in this house 'til those kids are gone". He's kinda got a point there, but I really hate cleaning the carpet. And since Krista has informed us that she's not moving out until she's at least 30, gross beige carpet it is. Oh, and just so you know, if a child spills an entire can of Pepsi sometime after school, and about half of it lands on a cushioned chair, said chair will not be dry by dinnertime. You might want to set the chair aside so you don't forget about it, or place a thick towel in the chair before you sit your nice warm behind in it after slaving over dinner. Don't ask me how I know, but just consider this a free parenting tip.

I love the card. I love the colors too.
Benny likes to watch the liquid run across and off the table and then use a bathroom towl to mop it up, nice.
