(Prison) Sentences

Here’s a sampling of some sentences I uttered this weekend…

I don’t watch TV to learn.
(This was in reference to the marathon of How It’s Made on The Science Channel and Tate questioning my disgust after hour 10.)

Welcome to my life.
(This was in reference to a comment Tate made about never getting anything done due to having to tend to the kids.)

Oh no you dint.
(This was in reference to a hint that whipping out the magic boobs might get the baby to finally go to sleep.)

A trip to the grocery store alone doesn’t technically count as a break thankyouverymuch.
(This doesn’t need any explanation.)

Is it Tuesday yet?
(This also doesn’t need any explanation.)

    I love this. Every so often Paul complains about having no time to himself, or about how things get dirty right after he cleans them, and I’m like, “HELLO!!!”

    Right on, sister! (Or maybe *write* on.) I use the “welcome to my world” one a lot! A LOT! I still don’t think he gets it.

    Thank G-d that long craptastic weekend is over! I thought it would never end.

    I hear ya on How It’s Made. SB and D can watch that for hours and while it’s educational and interesting for about 5 minutes, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!

    D. is also under the delusion that the grocery store is a fun way for me to clear my head.

    We have a deal around here that we take turns getting up at 6am (much earlier than we normally get up) because the baby gets up so early these days. But the thing is, David thinks this is “fair” and I appreciate his help but don’t equate it to equally sharing the load, because I do all of the night time parenting. (Which usually involves nursing from 4-6 am and then rising for the day.) Would HE feel like it was “fair” if he was woken every day at 4 am and sucked on for 2 hours, only to have to get up at 6 am FOR THE DAY? No, no he would not.

    This was a LONG long weekend, wasn’t it???

    To me, going to the grocery store alone, humming through the aisles, READING the frickin’ labels, now, what was that serving size, oh, where was that made, real ginger is in there, hm, oh, syrah’s on sale, how about that? Oh, such thrills! (hey, it’s about all I get….)

    Totally agree with the grocery store and not getting anything done because of the kids. My husband thinks I enjoy going to the grocery. I do, just a little, since I get away from the kids, but that doesn’t mean I’m having a nice break.

    Welcome to my life has become the main phrase used in communicating with my husband in the three years Punkin’ has been with us.

    Besides fuck off and get the hell away from me. Not liking him so much tonight. Can you tell?
