Q: What momentous thing happened this week on our street?
A: The port-a-potty that has been there since we moved in (3 mos.ago) is finally gone.
Hip Hip . . .
Q: Which one of my children writes like Da Vinci?
A: Asher. See the picture for proof. Apparently after doing his writing practice this morning he decided to use the other side of his brain for a bit of a challenge. He gets it from me. “Research suggests that the ability to do mirror writing is probably inherited and caused by atypical language organization in the brain.[1]. It is also hypothesized to be a X-linked dominant condition.[““(Wikipedia)

Q: What store grand opening am I totally excited about? (Hint: I hate shopping so it’s nothing like Nordstrom or whatnot.)
A: Sunflower Farmer’s Market in Orem. Local and Organic food/produce at CHEAP prices. Now THAT is something I get excited about.

Q: If Jason’s cell phone is sitting on the counter and ringing while he is the hot tub should I
1. Answer it, even if it is old HS buddies who clearly do not want to talk to me or else they would have called our home number, and what do they really have to say to me anyway
Or
2. Leave it to go to voicemail, like a good wife
A: The correct answer is #1. I answer it because I would rather do that than hear the kids “Mom, the phone’s ringing, answer it, mom, mom, the phone, it’s ringing answer it” and so on and so forth for five rings and the beep of voicemail.

Q: Is it safe to eat pita bread that has a date on it of 8/5 (I’m guessing that’s the day it was made) and has a few mold spots but I just rip off and eat the parts that don’t have mold on them?
A: Apparently so. I ate some Monday evening as a late night snack with some chicken salad. Since I felt fine Tuesday, I had some more of the same Tuesday morning for breakfast. I know, I have healthy eating habits. I told you I like food and apparently I don’t have a discriminating palate. And strong stomach acid.

Q: How did school pictures go this week?
A: As to be expected. I was very excited because I actually remembered that there were school pictures. I pulled Mara into the bathroom to curl her hair and she started crying before I did a thing. It’s the ONE day a year that I will curl your hair daughter, suck it up. Anyway, in the crying and moaning she moved and the curling iron brushed by her ear for a nanosecond and the crying went up a notch. As for me, my first picture I was talking and I have an expression of “I won the what?” on my face. The second one was ok but they had no mirror to look in beforehand. If I had, I would have noticed my hair sticking out and would have fixed it.

In case you’re wondering yes, I had school pictures, for my offical PTA badge. That’s right. I’m official. I don’t know what I’m doing yet. But’s it’s official that I’m official.

I'm really excited for the Sunflower Farmer’s Market, too...I'm SO glad that Averi does her own hair now. Of course, if I want something extra cute, I have to do it, and then come the whining and tears.
Isabel does that mirror writing too. I think it's pretty cool.
Seth feels the same way about mold, so maybe that is an inherited trait too. I must have inherited my grandma's feelings about food. She throws away mustard if it is a few days old (okay, that might be a slight exaggeration).
poor girl! i bet you were pulling her hair really hard, just like mom use to do to me. i so feel her pain.
Its officail your offical LOL! you do make me laugh!
I'm excited about that farmer's market also. You got sucked into the PTA eh? Don't do it! I put my time in and man am I glad to be out. Don't ever do anything in the presidency. Stick to the lower level stuff.
I have to get my picture taken this year also since I'm an employee and they have a wall with our pictures on it. I missed out last year so there is just my name with no picture. I'm the mystery employee.
