Mommy Day, Burned Hands, and The Dirt
May 11, 2008|Comments (none)
First of all, Happy Mother’s Day to all moms, grandmoms, and moms-to-be. And now on with the dirt:
IMPACT adoption class went quite well. They kept our group (who admits to being a bit rusty on proper classroom procedures) plied with soft drinks, coffee, candy, MSG-filled potato chip snack packs, and pizza. All that sugar was like a hoof to the braincase. Josh and I collapsed in post sugar-rush coma-like naps once we got home from our six hour junk food binge. We’re still recovering. Please send help.
A little bit of an interesting note: when asked to draw our idea of the perfect child — Josh and I drew the exact same thing without having peeked at each other’s paper. All of us were on horseback on a farm not unlike the one in the little clip art thingy. Yup. We’re on the same page. Great minds…
We did cruise the My Turn Now site upon waking all fuzzy-headed and weak. After watching a lot of the videos and reading 169 profiles, we were depressed and needed some distraction so we watched Over the Hedge before passing out.
Oh and I burned my hand. I picked up a HOT cast iron skillet lid (and then promptly launched it somewhere). The lid had been set on a burner which was OFF. One would think that the lid would have been cool to the touch but our old stove has issues. You see, if the oven is on — all the burners heat to the temperature of the oven. You can well imagine my frustration.
