I woke up at 4am when my husband’s alarm clock went off. I couldn’t get back to sleep, so I made my coffee and breakfast, snuggled with my little guy for a while and got ready for work. Can anyone complain about working 8am to Noon? I won’t. At least not this week.
After lunch with my sister, I dipped the children in sunscreen (a 30-minute process when we all stay focused, which wasn’t exactly the case this afternoon) and hauled them to the water park. The first hour was rough. The water was warm and our tempers were hot. Want to adjust some attitudes? Concession stand hamburgers and corn dogs* are the secret to your success. Things were much better after the children dipped things in ketchup.
We’re home now and I am wiped. It’s 8:30. I still have to do laundry (necessary for work tomorrow), complete my grocery list and take a shower. And the fifteen other random things that manage to jump in my path between here and bed. But I am going to sleep so, so good.
Tell me, is “corn dog” really “corn dog” or should it be “corndog”? Could there be a more ridiculous word/phrase?







“Dipped the children in sunscreen.”
Snort.
I cannot think of a better phrase to describe that.
