And if my second child had been the firstborn (instead of the way it happened...) he would have been an only child also!!
Not suggesting that he was difficult or anything... ;-)
The Biscuit seal:
![]() After Doggy kind had decided to live with Mankind he gave Mankind the recipe for an object that had haunted the imagination of Doggiekind since the time of Creation. This object of desire was the Bone shaped Biscuit. Mankind dutifully created this Bone shaped Biscuit, that was the desire of all canines. A thousandth of a second after Doggiekind came into contact with the bone shaped biscuit; Shrapnel was invented. Doggiekind rapidly created the soft ,ticklish covers that encase the sides of the mouth. These in Dog speak are 'Biscuit seals', They ensure that the shrapnel is mostly retained and none of the precious biscuit is wasted. |
that is good to hear!
Tom drove to his science lab successfully, then back home. THEN he went to Walmart and bought a large package of D-batteries with his own money, and returned safely. Camping this weekend, and he wanted to power his portable fan!
I’ll have to put gas in the car before Elen goes for a drive.
What a good idea for Pat, once we’ve completed review of all his Latin studies to this point.
Some kids need portable fans to demonstrate their independence. Doesn’t necessarily mean you failed as a mother LOL;-{). Good morning mom.
Good morning. I told Tom I wouldn’t buy the D batteries. It’s not as if his campout is in Death Valley! I also didn’t give him money to “buy meals during the drive,” which is only 2 hours, and I’d already served supper at home. (He may have helped himself out of my purse, though.)
That reminds me. When I was about 12 years old I would occasionally help myself to a few coins from my mother’s purse to buy myself a roast beef sandwich.
Didn’t have too much use for batteries back in those days.
She’ll never know.
If I said, “You shouldn’t have swiped money from my purse,” he would say, “You had an obligation to provide it, because it was on the ‘What to bring’ list for the campout.” Tom will be a successful corrupt politician someday ...
Anyway, I don’t know how much was in there to start with, so there’s no point even in mentioning it.
Way back when most mother’s had coin purses and coins where of some value... well, how long ago was that?
Really long ago.
Heh, I haven’t seen one of those in a long time.
Coin holder, or Edam Cheese on a chain?
No, of course not...
Seen one? I had one!
Like the folks who want to go camping to experience the fun of “roughing it” in nature but end up taking their air conditioned RV’s complete with satellite TV, refrigerators, showers and beds.
Yah. Like that! LOL!
Tom likes his creature comforts!
