Okay, I have kids and I have been known in the past to pull a pacifier or teething toy from my purse when I meant to get something else, and have gotten weird looks and snickers for having a breast pad fall of my purse out once while I was still nursing. So I get that and it's established that mothers pull weird things from their purses, right?

But could someone please tell me why when my daughter asked for a pen while we were out last night I reached deep into the bottom of my purse, scrounged around a bit, and pulled out something that felt like a pen it was a...

FORK????

Now how did a fork get into my purse in the first place? Granted, I am fluffy right now, but I swear I don't carry a hidden fork around on purpose. I mean it isn't as if I thought I would need to tuck into something and wouldn't have a fork available. So where did that fork come from? My daughter looked at it and then at me as if I were nuts and we both burst into laughter, but seriously...a fork?

Ever had an experience like that?

You have kids, that should be answer enough.

Ohhh, so YOU had the fork! Yesterday i had two small pieces of fish, part of a piece of meatloaf, and some chicken in my purse.


i think i may know where you left your pen.....

Maybe we already did! That explains how you got my pen and I got your fork. After all, this is the Twilight Zone

It was the mutant pod people. They have stealth technology and attack mothers. Next you'll find a piece of Hershey's pie in there, like that would ever happen!

Yeah, right. If they only leave me forks and no food, I can't see any Hershey's Pie in my future....but it's a nice thought

Could be worse. My washer decided to throw up the morning, flooding the laundry room and half the kitchen. It seems the little valve that is supposed to shut off filling the tank didn't shut off! Water overflowed the tank, ran down the base, shorting out the thing then flooding the floor. Yay! I used every towel I could find plus about 3 rolls of paper towels. Hubby made a dash to Lowe's which was crowded and only had a display model of one that wasn't the----- high efficiency, low water, special soap, locks up all day, had twenty returned---- model. It had a dent BUT he got 10% off and it was under $250 even with tax!!!

So far so good. Floor is mopped, towels are washing, I have coffee and took a shower. All good again.

Now then, who did I tick off for that to happen????????

Must be some bad Karma!!

Oh geez, that sucks!! I hate you had all that to clean up:( I'm glad he found one you are happy with...it's fine if there is a dent at that price...but that sucks there was a mess you had to clean up.


For some reason I read this three times as , "My mother decided to throw up" instead of washer, and I couldn't wrap my mind around how a person could do that and flood the whole place I have no idea why I was reading it that way...more Twilight Zone today I guess.

someone is sending us bad energy!

I'm a firm believer in the energy of thoughts. A few months ago a semi acquaintance said work had dropped off and he was having business problems. He was very worried about it. I started sending out good energy/thoughts and it wasn't long before business picked up and, according to what he wrote not long ago on fb, business has been good for the past few months.
Being a bit miffed, i know i can't send him bad energy...my spirit won't let me, but i can stop sending good energy

Send some energy my way Puf, I iz pooped.

you'll have a better day tomorrow

The world is an amazing place......the more we learn......the more we realize how little we actually do know............
