Finally!!!!!!

I can not think of a different title today. I decided I would join the bloggers for nablopo. It is a committment to blog for 30 days straight. What was I thinking!!! I guess I was up for a challenge. I have sat down three times today the 3rd of November in the year of 2008 and can not think about what to write about. I have alot to say and alot on my mind but do other people want to hear that stuff. So I set out to find a story or a blog and still nothing came to mind UNTIL my daughter who is 8 said now I know what you feel like.

Now I am not shy in sharing my thoughts with her and that was a loaded statement. So instead of asking her right away what she meant by that I sat and thought about what occured in the last 5 minutes so I could better understand what she might be talking about. We had just come in from picking her up from Brownies. I went to the bathroom and hollered for her to unload the dishwasher, eat her bed night snack and get ready for bed. How could that have honored such a response like, "at least now I know what you feel like". I am the boss of the house so no one barks orders at me. I do not get to go to fun places like Brownies, swimming or visits with my dad so what was she talking about. Okay so I can not think like my eight year old, so I ask her what she means and she says, " at least I know what it feels like to walk in the house and have to start working before you even get your coat hung up." I about laughed myself right off the chair. For months, I have been telling her and the babysitting kids to not bombard me with questions as soon as we walk in the door at least let us get our coats hung up. Woo Hoo someone finally GOT it.
