Bwad is the newest member of our family. Named after our venerable patriarch, but with kindergarten pronunciation, Bwad sleeps in a Kleenex box and likes being stroked between the ears. He is my kind of pet and we've taken him everywhere today.
Even with a stuffed tiger tagalong, my day has been productive. I took the twinks shoe shopping and to the dentist. Both activities make me feel like a responsible parent. The Stride Rite man congratulated me on my strapping boys and the dentist (for once!) pronounced everyone cavity-free.
I headed back to the store for Snowmageddon Part II. This one's supposed to be a doozy. I loaded up on all the essentials. This time, I got wise, and bought the disposable hot chocolate cups WITH LIDS. I'm hoping this will drastically improve something. Snow days are a whole lotta fun, but can wreak havoc upon my clean kitchen.
Bracing for this second storm (we're supposed to get 12-20 inches!) reminds me of the day before surgery. I've done everything I can do get ready, I'm hoping for the best and prepared for the worst. We won't know til it's over, I guess.
Cute tiger!! It is such a nice feeling to leave the dentist cavity free!
ReplyDeleteHope you survive this second blizzard as well!
I am truely jealous of ANOTHER snow storm. We haven't had one like that at all this year. Just a bunch of small-med storms. I'm so tired of gray, cold and ugly dirty snow. I soooo want a snow day.
ReplyDeleteWhy is it that hot chocolate always spills?!?!?
Thanks for the reminder that I really need to get my kiddos to the dentist. You are a better mom than me!! Stay warm and dry for the incoming storm. It looks like we are lucking out here in Delaware with only 1-3 in my area although it's starting as ice which won't be fun. Good luck.
ReplyDeleteI like how he named it Bwad. Reminds me of Opa the Turtle. Something in this family about naming after the men...
ReplyDelete12-20 more inches? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? You can come here and recuperate. We have virtually no snow.
Love the name of Bwad. That is a darling picture of the two of them.
ReplyDeleteYou are brilliant. I love the idea of disposable hot chocolate cups with lids.
Good luck, and I will be thinking of you. Are you going to have to make up a lot of Seminary?
