thank you.

5 yo daughter was drawing on a piece of paper with a Sharpe, thus breaking the cardinal rule of "no using Sharpes." son said "MURDER HER!!" and i said "BURN HER AT THE STAKE!!" to which she replied smugly:

"Mmm...steak!"

[Pebbles67]

Wow, rough crowd...

[Mud Flinger]

I have the "forbidden sharpe marker" rule too! Spent too much time cleaning a hard wood floor after my oldest colored it "pretty" when she was little. Too funny through ....mmmm steak!

[Saoirse]

oh yes, we've had some mishaps with sharpes. oh and i can't tell you how many times i've taken pocket knives away. my daughter has this lovely habit of leaving them open, on the floor, in the midst of a mess of toys. thankfully, they have their own toy room so they're only endangering themselves (as opposed to endangering the bean). that was months ago and i still haven't given them back yet.

son said "MURDER HER!!"

[Saoirse]

i think there's a cultural reference there that i'm not privvy to.

the kids and i went out for brunch today. the older two ordered crappy food (french toast, chicken strips and fries) while i ordered "migas": scrambled eggs, potatoes, green chili, smoky sausage, with a side of sour cream. however, the weather's got me down (near freezing, windy and raining), so i'm going to perk myself up with junk food. cookies, or chocolate cake? i also promised the daughter that i'd take her out for dessert tomorrow, should be a fun little date. hubby's coming on Friday; i'm thinking of going low carb after monday's dessert.

oh, and i bought a new/used bike trailer. the old one is mildewy (this is the condition it was given to me in), and the straps for the kid look uncomfortable, so i really didn't like using it. the new/used one also seats one kid or two. so as long as i get my bike into shape, i plan to pick the kids up from the babysitter with my bike. i'm itching to use it, but the weather's so shitty.

[Pebbles67]

Oh, fun way to sneak in some exercise.

[Saoirse]

the sun finally came out, but it's still cold and windy. dinner should be something from the oven.

I'm in the market for some new music to play; something intermediate and fun to play alone, preferably in the format of a book
(more cost effective). i should take out my old suzuki books and look through them.
