Some things never change

Sir lost a lot, the princess and other members of the royal family joined me for lunch today. This was day 2 of my unbirthday celebration.

As life and luck would have it I has my usual dining experience. The items I chose were either sold out or not exactly as I expected them to be. It all started when the princess ordered apple juice and was told there wasn't any. I tried my best to get her to make another selection without much success. Later during the meal the waitress was able to get the apple juice.

Then came desert. I order cherry pie. The waitress comes back afro minutes later. No cherry pie. I order apple pie. A few minutes later she comes back, no apple pie. I'm trying to keep a straight face since I have a knack for asking for items they have just run out of. Seems my daughter has inherited this.

Ordered a brownie sundae,with two spoons one for me and one for the princess.

She told the waitress about the unbirthday celebration. I was treated to an enthusiastic rendition of Happy Birthday from the waitress and some co workers.

What was I thinking?

The princess' teacher called this afternoon. She asked about an assignment from the previous day. I didn't have it and suggested she look in the princes' desk,shudder the thought. I also inquired about some things that hadn't come home.

You know where this going...

The princess' backpack was noticeably heavier than when she left for school.

I took a while to wade through three months of classwork. Some things were to be signed and returned,like 10 weeks ago.

The desk and backpack are now lighter and my dining room table now has a six pounds of paper on it, oh joy!

Time to oil the shredder blades, I've got to get my homework done.

Girl Scout Cookies

Subject: Girl Scout Cookies

The princess has been so enthusiastic about her first Girl Scout Cookie campaign. She set a very high goal for herself. She even tried tried to sell cookies to other Girl Scouts. LOL

Please remember our troops when placing your cookie order. Operation Cookie sends cookies to the US troops. For more information ask the Girl Scout council near you or send us a message.

Just watched Erma Bombeck: Legacy of Laughter on #PBS. Catch it if you can. She is the original mommy blogger and my inspiration.

The princess did not want to go to sleep. She's been reading by the hall light.

Tried to get her settled nothing worked until I told her she could stay up all night until the sun came up or the cows came home and she would be following her regular schedule. Asleep in 5 minutes. Life is good.

Attack of the toys

First day back to school. The princess was pooped but being a kid she decided at bedtime she was going to stay up all night and play.

She and her minions aka Barbie,tea cup piggie and friends launched a never before seen attack on the mommy monster.

They may have won the battle but certainly did not win the war. For those of you keeping score at home the series is now mommy 1507, the princess 6.
