Good: The 16 Junior Mints that I am allowing to melt in my mouth one at a time even though I want to just dump the whole lot of them in all at once and choke on the minty goodness.
Bad: Cold toilet seats.
Good: Giggling baby who will stop mid-suck and grin at me while milk runs down his chin.
Bad: Babies pooping the peas I gave them for lunch yesterday. Whole peas, people. Do these kids not chew?
Good: I think our cat finally had her kittens.
Bad: I can't find her. Or the kittens.
Good: Naptime.
Bad: Kady is up from nap and sounds like a 2 pack a day smoker. Stupid asthma.
Good: I spent a solid hour with my oldest child last night, sitting at the dining room table. Just the two of us.
Bad: We were going over every assignment she did yesterday - or was supposed to do yesterday. Seems my little bookworm is almost failing a couple or three classes again.
Good: Giggling babies that give big open mouthed, slobbery kisses.
Bad: Fussy babies with intestinal distress. The little one is just gassy. The bigger ones - seems some idiot gave them all peas yesterday.
Good: The weather is actually acting like Spring today.
Bad: My sinuses picked up on the Spring thing way before the weather did.
I was born a semi-diva. I married a redneck. Through the magic of osmosis or just because of a serious lack of sophistication over the years I have found a balance of the two that make me who I am today. And then I write about it all, much to the chagrin of my mother.

love th 50/50! made me laugh if I had been drinking milk it so would have douched my sinuses as it pored out my nose.
Love, Tater
LMAO @ the word "farking"...I don't think that I've ever heard anyone else beside MrKB say that until now!!!
Note to self...don't feed the baby peas anytime soon...
Tater!! I'm so glad you got a job so you can use the internet again.
You just had to mention the nasal douche, didn't you? *gag*
MamaK, I'm trying really hard to not say fu*k so much. Fark seemed pretty close. I kind of like it actually. But more than likely this is just a phase and I'll be cussing up a storm in a few days, lol.
