Daily Peek: Needles, Tornadoes and Grocery Stores

(the girls are sitting by the road watching for a neighbor’s lost dog. don’t worry, the road was not busy and they aren’t quite as close as it looks.)

Honestly today was a pretty crappy door day.  See?  I just typed door instead of day.  That doesn’t make one bit of sense.  I worked until 1:30 last night, still had issues this morning, had to get up early to get to the doctor for blood work,  got another shot, had a bad coupon experience at Harris Teeter, had an issue on my Danny site, blah, blah, blah…there was more but I’m just tired of hearing myself complain.

I did end the day with a little laugh.  Our conversations at bedtime can be pretty random.   Usually one of the girls say “how did we get on this topic”?  Here was one such conversation that had me giggling.  Maybe just because today was so bad.

Me: What’s the sound?
Emma: An airplane
Lexi: What would happen if a plane landed in our neighborhood
Me: It wouldn’t be good
Emma: The wings would hit the houses
Lexi: …and there would be no houses.  It’d be like the tornado in Africa
*pause*
Emma: It wasn’t even in Africa, it was in Haiti
Me: It wasn’t even a tornado, it was a hurricane.
*pausing knowing that’s not right but my brain? is fried.*
Me: I mean it was an earthquake
Lexi: earthquick
Me: it’s an earth QUAKE
Lexi: earthquick.
Me: quake
Lexi: earthquick earthquick earthquick.
Me: whatever
Lexi: When are we going back to Earth Fare?

I love how Lexi’s brain works.

Hope your Monday treated you well.  Bring on Tuesday for me!
