8.22.2009~*~*~Outside fun and not fun stuff*~*~*~

So Saturday the 22nd was another beautiful day! We got a call from my sister-in-law asking if we wanted to go up to her boyfriend's for a small cookout--it included smore-making so I was totally in. We headed up there around 5ish. The kids played for awhile. I did a few pictures (of course).

Sage took Stormy's headband and thought it was an edible item...



I think Shayne is the most tired of having her picture taken. She has been around the longest after all.

Stormy fixed her headband by herself. She is so stylin'.

My little man was in top form at this point. No really. He was being really good.

And then:

For some reason my son completely freaked out over the fire. He was so scared. I-HAVE-NO-IDEA-WHY. But eventually, he calmed down. The smores were wonderful! I didn't have to do any of the work for it so I think that made it taste even better. I love me some toasted marshmallows!

So what's up with the blog title right? The not fun stuff...

Aside from the mosquito bites I have, and Stormy got and the baby...

I ran into someone I went to college with. I didn't much care for in school and that sentiment continues to this day. She was obnoxious. Maybe it had something to do with how she critiqued a paper of mine. And the fact that I didn't change a single thing to what she suggested and I got an"A" on it because I left out her suggestions. Maybe it was the fact that she knew everything. Please note the sarcasm there. And...anyways...Let me ask you a question. Ready?

What is the worst question you can be asked as a woman? Seriously. Think about it. You may have even asked another woman this at one point in your life. I have. And I then learned the girl code for it. You don't ask it ever. Ready for it?

"Are you pregnant?"

Yes. I did the line spaces for deep breaths to calm down. Ummmm...my response:

"No. I did have a baby like almost a year ago."

She tells me she finished school and is now an RN. (You see, I was going to school for this for a bit. I decided my family had to come first since that is the order that I did things. My kids are really young and I have plenty of time for school. AND the school I was going to was CRAZY expensive. Like $30,000+ for an Associates. That's nuts. I can to the community college (which is accredited and well known) for a fraction of that right?)--Okay I digress.

From one woman to another. You never ask that question. EVER. And if you yourself look like you could be carrying an elephant, you should already know better.

I think that's it for this wonderful day. Seriously. My kids and I got to spend time with great company (excluding the dumb*$ I went to school with).
