Geez, Woman

Me: "Huck, if you are going to sleep in here, then you need to clean off and make up the bed". What does Huck do? He stands on the comforter with a bland look on his face, as though he has no idea why I'm irritated. I say, "This is the last time I will tell you. Clean off and make the bed." He says "Geez, Woman!" and then does it at a snail's pace.

I say "I don't like being Mean Mama. The solution? You do what you are told, the first time you are told to do it, and you do not have to see Mean Mama. Stop pushing my buttons." To which Huck replies "The only button you have is a belly button and I didn't push it."

I buried him in a shallow grave in the woods.

That is some funny stuff. Sounds like my two smart-ass daughters. One phrase, I heard today at dinner, out of my youngest's mouth, "Mom ruins everything!" EXCUSE ME! My eyebrows shot up and I waited for Hubby to defend me. Meh, men!

Love the Garbo pic. Isn't she just absolutely beautiful? Even when she was older she looked great and carried herself so gracefully
