Phew! Long Break!

Jan 08, 2009 12:49

That has got to have been the longest, most torturous (and tortuous, actually) holiday break in the history of Forever. Wow. I picked a lousy time to stop sniffing glue, that's for sure ( Read more... )

AHAHAHAHA!!!! This so reminds me of the barbies on the turned off ceiling fan. They'd all three climb on Nate's bunk bed, stretch to reach the fan, put the Barbies on, and then turn the fan on and watch them fly!

Too funny!

This is why you don't really need to spend too much money on kids - they make their own (destructive) fun!

LOL....when I stayed with the kids yo those many years ago when you had Julia also to help....the Span (I think he was 2) in a snit, threw his T-shirt, and it landed on the chandelier. He froze in mortification...and looked at me ashen-faced. I stifled a chuckle and gasped "oh my God, what are we going to do?"

Anyhow, with a broom handle we got it down.....oh...I never did tell you did I!!!

Heh, never heard that story!

the t-shirt did catch my eye, I don't know why, I guess one just naturally notices a t-shirt draped across a chandelier out of the corner of one's eye. It must be some aspect of natural selection that our peripheral vision picks up things like that.

Awesome. Oh, boys.

They are not like you and me.

My sister and I used to fling spaghetti at the wall to see if it was done. Then we would fling it at the ceiling. (We got in So Much Trouble!)

Humerous Spawn Ancecdote indeed. Much enjoyed this.

Great! Now will you come over and get the t-shirt down?

Um. I often throw items of clothing at stuff to dislodge it. Mostly dirty underpants (well, they're to hand, ok?) at mosquitos on the ceiling, so they fly lower and I can squish 'em. So I do see the thought processes here. And the photo made me laugh, too.

It's a shame about butt-ugly (I'm not going to deny it) lighting fittings that come with the house. We still have an unpleasant 'sheep's eyeball' spotlight affair embedded in the dining room ceiling which we haven't touched in 5 years. Neither of us are whizzes at rewiring, and the extant wiring in this house is crazymad anyway. The house was built in 1980, so it's not like there's an excuse. }:-(

Glad you survived it all, anyway! Don't roll on, spring break!

LOL, you must have some boy chromosomes in there somewhere.
