Good News, Bad News

The Kids and I have said a fond farewell to the Wife, as the latest installment of Harry Potter has arrived. She does not interact, eat, or tend to her hygiene whilst reading Harry Potter. This is a 'good news bad news' situation. The good news is we will have a few days peace with no Honey Do list. The bad news is she does start to attract flies after a couple of days.

200 Doughnuts

The Boy and the Girl recently spent some time with their grandparents. Grandpa challenged the Boy to a foot race. My son graciously accepted, and the trash talk began...
Grandpa: Wanna race?
The Boy: OK,
Gr: Are you sure? You know I was the fastest runner in my school.
TB: Yea, that was before you ate 200 doughnuts.
Gr: You have your father's sense of humor.

The final report was that Grandpa won the race, but he cheated. I told him that was OK, that's the only way Grandpa can win a race.

PSA

This is a public service announcement. The following blog post was entered by a drunk person, a stinking drunk person. Kids, please don't blog after abusing alcohol. Blog first.

Kites

I am writing for Potland who is too busy to blog as he has dishpan hands.

Me: What kind of kite do you think your kids would like for vacation.

Husband: Why are you buying them kites?

Me: To fly at the beach - what do you think they would like?

Husband: We are not buying kites from a website, we can go to Walmart and get kites 4 for 10.00.

Me: Great, so when their cousins are flying nice kites what are they going to say?

Husband: You just tell them Walmart kites or a stick.

Me: (Laughing) I am not going to tell them that, be serious!

Husband: How much are you spending on kites?

Me: 15.00

Husband: What that's 60.00!

Me: There are two of them. I am not buying you a kite. You can go to Walmart if you want one.

Husband: What? that's nice........ Fine, if you are buying kites I want to pick one out too.
