tidbits

when john was in the army and we lived in watertown, NY for a couple of years, we used to go to this bagel shop and get our favorite bagel sandwiches.  and every time we would go there we'd pick up this free little newspapery thing near the door that was called "tidbits".  all i remember is that there was a commercial for this newpaper on the local TV channel and the commercial consisted of someone saying the word "TIDBITS" over and over.  so eventually it became a thing and our friends all starting saying it. 

and because this post is so random i'm officially dubbing it TIDBITS!


 **  is it me or is the pollen count like out of control this year?  i literally have the worst headache.  i'm considering taking a flask to softball to just survive.

** lately i've been considering getting a flask.  for real.  motherhood pretty much demands one.

**  yesterday i was in the car alone with the three kids for over four hours.  and then i sat through a full mass and then a baptism.  the good thing about being in the car was that we listened to all our beastie boys cd the whole time.  the bad thing about being in the car for four hours is just that.

**  today while i was driving around doing my usual banging in the car, someone rode up alongside me on the highway and started banging with me.  and smiling.  like this guy was SO HAPPY to be dancing.  most people either call the police on me when they see me banging or harass me for miles, ridiculing me, so it really makes my day when someone can just be normal and be happy for me.

**  softball games from 6-8p most days of the week are pretty much torturous.  lulu has to be forced to stay up way past her bedtime.  i have to keep them all busy and try to keep lulu from breaking more of her bones (there have been a couple of close calls).  so yeah.  flask.  necessary.

** today when i was listening to the beastie boys my very well-loved cd kept skipping.  and it was only skipping through mca's parts.  and it was freaking me out very, very much.

**  lulu kept declaring today "i love kombucha!".  it was pretty cute.  which is good because everything else she did today was less than cute.

**  3rd grade homework equals homework for mom

** kindergarten projects equals homework for mom

**  TIDBITS!



tell me some of your tidbits, please.  xx
