Squatters of the world beware!

-
I've got beef with certain women (you know who you are) who, instead of using public restrooms the normal way (ladies, this means sitting) they feel they must hover over the seat to avoid getting germs. This is stupid. First of all there are more germs on the handle of your shopping cart (or buggy, if you will) than on a toilet seat. I know it's gross to think about sitting where strangers' naked behinds have been but do you know what's ten times worse? The poor, unsuspecting person who sits in the pee you've left on the seat because you were too afraid to sit down! And too often that poor person has been me. The reason the seat is so nasty to begin with is because of people like you. You're not helping, you're only making it worse. Listen up ladies, you've got to stop the madness. We are women, not men. We were created to sit to go to the bathroom, not stand or try some acrobatic maneuver to avoid the toilet seat. If you're that picky about it, why not use a toilet seat protector or lay down some tissue before you sit? Stop making the rest of us suffer because of your ignorance and bad aim.

On a related note, why the crap did Wal-Mart install bathroom sinks that are so shallow you touch the bottom of the sink just trying to rinse your hands? Who was the genius who thought that up? Forget toilet seats, I don't even want to think about what's been washed off or spit out and left lingering in the bottom of the sink!

First off, It's about time you blogged. Secondly, our Granny was a world famous squatter-but she had aim like nobody's business and would never even think about leaving a sloppy seat behind. I am a squatter, but she taught me well. And lastly, remind me not to read your posts during supper.

Amen. If you are that concerned just squirt a little antibacterial gel on some tissue and wipe off the seat. That is what I do, beside my thighs are not that strong.

Trips to win

They're here! Meet Sawyer Boone, Toby Ryan and Chloe Violet. We're still trying to decide which boy is who. One boy was 5lbs 10oz, the other was 5lbs 5oz, and she was 5lbs 4oz. They each came out screaming, no respirators or NICU visits required.  I'm doing good as well, still numb so we'll see how good I feel once the anesthesia wears off. A HUGE thank you to everyone who's been praying for us. We can't thank you enough.

Whatever suits you

As many of you know, Ryan is graduating this semester. (Woo hoo!) The school he attends has a program called Dressed for Service that allows graduates to nominate their wives to receive a new outfit for graduation, interviews, etc. And guess who was one of those selected... I can't tell you how much fun this was. Each recipient had a personal shopper from the school to help pick out clothes and accessories and to determine what looked best. A girl can never have too many people tell her she looks good. My big head is slowly beginning to come back down to its normal size. We each got a suit, shoes, handbag and jewelry. They even included pantyhose and shoe pads for those of us with mismatched feet. I'm modeling the pants here but I also got a skirt to mix it up. Notice the houndstooth. I'm nothing if not loyal to my team. The lady who told Ryan I'd been selected said she'd read his application nominating me and it made her cry. I'm not sure if it was because he ...

Red Room

Recently I decided that I've lived with drab, dull walls too long. With that revelation and all the free time I've had on my hands lately, I embarked upon a quest to liven up my kitchen. Here are the results: Now my question is what to do with the breakfast nook. We're debating between painting it the same color as the kitchen or a dark chocolate brown to compliment the red. Incidentally, whenever I talk about painting the walls chocolate, I flash back to the lickable wallpaper scene from "Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory". Anyway, here's a picture of the nook and how it relates to the kitchen. So what do you think? Chocolate or ketchup?
