I just don’t get that. It should SO be
‘ You’ve been lying in that bed now get up & make it yourself!’
It just doesn’t make sense the other way. WHY would you lay down in a bed that you JUST made? What’s the point of makin it? If I were going to (& I totally would if I could) get right back in my bed a few minutes after I get out of it…do you really think I would go through all that trouble to make it first place???? Cause it’s just so hard. Or maybe I’m just that lazy.
Sorry for ranting. Apparently I have cliche issues. I think I’m over them now.
Okay Brit. Forgive me. I didn’t mean to leave you hangin on the Bruce Almighty thing. I really … don’t know where I was going with that. You know that part where he’s on the bridge…and he says ‘Smite me Almighty Smiter’. It just randomly popped into my head when I was thinking about , well, I don’t even remember exactly what I was thinking about. But it made me laugh. And then I thought “Maybe I shouldn’t say that cause it might offend somebody”.
OH I remember what I was thinking. I was in the middle of realizing that I have pretty much been a snotty bitch my whole life. SO I’m working on changing that. And if you happen to be reading this, and that does offend you… well, just think how much it offended me! I was shocked! shocked! to realize that. That’s one of the fun things about the Truth. It ain’t always pretty. And you usually don’t want to admit it. But there it is. For whatever it’s worth.
- 1. You’re better than I – the only time my bed gets made is when I put fresh sheets on.
2. Love the movie Bruce Almighty – great stuff.
3. I’m sure I’ve got ya beat in the snotty bitch category. Don’t feel bad. - You are totally [hehe] standing next to me !
Anywho … that was like … not what i expected …. :]
- You mean y’all MAKE yer BEDS? and GIRLIE! I cannot, cannot picture you as that snotty B-word~NO WAY!
I REALLY, REALLY have enjoyed your comments~that long one was RIGHT ON, and we are surely kindred spirits! Come on and move on across the street from me, ‘kay? Ya wouldn’t be able to get rid of me! LOL! (((((HUGS))))) sandi
- OH! and I LOVE being your Bloggy Peep! LOL! (((((HUGS))))) sandi
- Hey girl. I know what you mean. What’s up with that bed making stuff? I don’t even bother anymore! I hate making my bed. Oh well. LOL!
I’m not very easily offended; been there, been and DONE that! It’s good when we can ADMIT our faults instead of sitting on a high horse acting like we’re “all that” ya know? I appreciate your honesty. Apparently you appreciate mine too! LOL!
- My bed only gets made when I have company over…always too busy just getting the really important things done to get back to it.
The thing I liked most about Bruce Almighty was what they said about God essentially lending a hand when we need it instead of sending out billions of “miracles”. It implies that when we run across someone in need and we help them, we become the miracle, the hand of God.
- MADE YOUR BED? I think I did that once in 1974 or thereabouts
! And that snotty bitch part? Vive le snotty bitch–HAHAHA! That would probably be why I felt so compelled to comment to you, cause I’m a snotty bitch, too! And unapologetic about it. The nice thing about being “older” is that you get to care less and less about offending people. They’ll get over it. Or not. Whatever. Just my opinion but, however you are at any given time? That’s just FINE! Also wanted to say thanks for the support last week; it made a difference for me!
- It’s reassuring to know that no one else makes their bed around here. Although it’s been difficult to train my kids to make theirs, considering that they rarely see Mommy and Daddy’s bed made.
I won’t say anything about the snotty bitch reference, because a guy can only get in trouble from getting into that discussion.
- I’ve been known to make my bed mere seconds before climbing in at night because it used to bother me to sleep in a bed that hadn’t been made. Now, however, I can’t recall the last time the bed has been made. It looks, actually, like a stopping off point for transients.
And I’m inclined to go there now!
- I don’t know WHY I wanted to come and tell you this, but I did. My eyes are literally BUGGING OUT from transferring my blog~and I’m still not done! WHY is this important to me? LOL! (((((HUGS))))) sandi
- Make the bed? HA! Not me! I might be tempted to lie down in it and never get back up!! Have a great day!
- Hey, I’ve got to get into my own unmade bed so I’ve got to make this quick. Just wanted to say thanks for being such a loyal blog friend and thanks for the Tuesday night invite. Probably won’t be able to make it, though. I try to avoid driving at night because my night vision absolutely stinks, and my husband is usually working or at a meeting in the evenings. Hopefully we can get together sometime soon, though. But for now, good night!
- Becca~ somehow I have a hard time believing that last one;) You are just too sweet. And I’m so glad I *met you in ‘kenessee’.
Brit~ ya need help! But I love you anyway girlie!
Sandi~ thank you. You change my life way more than you realize:) And I would happily be your neighbor ANY day. Now I just gotta talk the biggest Thing of them all into it. I’m sure he would think that’s an excellent reason to move. And I love you & I’m glad you’re my *bloggy peep too!
LooneyMom~ lol. I most definently appreciate your honesty. & I love your blog.
Crazy Computer Dad~ There were alot of implications in that movie & that was definently one of the ones that stood out to me also. I was quite surprised really. I’m not a big Jim Carrey fan.
FTN~ really. You are a smart man for *keeping quiet. lol.
for a different kind of girl~ really? You made your bed just so you could get in it?? & here I thought I was anal. lol. I was very inclined to get back into mine yesterday too:) Hope atleast one of us made it there.
Diane~ I hope you slept peacefully!
Kim~ ROFL I just can’t picture you there either. And I am *so glad that last week turned out to be such a great week for you!
tegdirb92~ lol. it’s very tempting. However, the little Things that would totally tear the house apart while I was in it motivates me to just make it & get out.
I have a confession to make. To walk in my house, you would think that I’m a pretty clean and organized mom. That’s because I’m a FIRM BELIEVER in surface cleaning (shhh don’t tell my mother!) If the bathrooms are clean, the counters and tabletops are clear and the floor is picked up, it’s clean enough for me! I threw my perfectionism out the window about 4 sets of dirty hands and feet ago. And I can live happily with that.
But the laundry…the BANE of my very existence…that’s a completely different story. If you looked into my laundry closet you would probably NEVER speak to me again. I have this theory about laundry trying to take over and rule the world. You should hear it sometime. Or maybe not.
I am SO waiting for some wonderful genius woman to invent *disposable clothes. That would be the most wonderful thing EVER.
We have ALOT of laundry, as you can probably imagine. I think the baby is actually the cleanest little person in our house. How sad is that? Or maybe it’s my oldest son. This boy, will take a shower and try to put on the SAME DIRTY BOXERS that he just took off! I have actually had to start doing a daily boxer check on a 9 yr old! What is UP with THAT??
My girlies ~ the self proclaimed princesses ~ they LOVE to wear pretty dresses. I don’t know where this fascination came from. It’s a lucky day for My Love if he comes home to find me in jeans instead of pajamas. Fear not, he is very aware how HOT pajamas are. You don’t need to tell him. Truly. He knows. I love pajamas. I will seriously take a shower only to put on MORE PAJAMAS. But they insist on wearing ‘princessy (YA that’s a word ’cause i just made it a word) clothes and if they get even one teeeeeny tiiiiny spot on it they MUST immediatly be regarbed in proper princess wear.
My toddler *the moose, is just a MESS. He somehow manages to get dirty no matter WHAT we are doing. Every Sunday I have to explain to the girls in Tiny Tots that YES he WAS clean when we put him in the truck and NO I have no clue HOW he got so filthy in the carseat. This child here, he is the only child I know who can actually get dirty IN THE BATH TUB. So, when I can manage to keep clothes on him, they are only clean for roughly…2 minutes. Really. I’m not exaggerating. Not even a little bit.
But I digress. I’m just procrastinating so that you won’t see what a terrible ’sahm’ i am.
I don’t have alot of time to mess with the laundry. Ok really, that’s just a different way to say that I procrastinate when it comes to laundry too. I wait and wait and let it pile and pile until it literally eyeballs me from the closet, which by this time is open because the laundry is finding it’s way out the door, and practically BEGGING me to just WASH IT! And finally I will. And that’s when the CLEAN laundry takes over my bedroom. And Bathroom. And wherever else it will fit.
But hey, the floor is clean enough to eat off of, which is a good thing because Chloee oee oee has a particular fondness for hiding cheerios under the furniture…just in case she gets hungry later.
- Haha, that is too funny. I understand the dislike of laundry though my most dreaded sahm ‘duty’ is grocery shopping. We had those same taunting piles of laundry with all the kids at my house and now with my two and all hubby’s uniforms…anyway, this is your blog and not mine. Happy laundry time
- hmmm… i don’t mind grocery shopping so much. Unless I have the zoo woth me. Shopping with monkeys is definently not something I recommend.
- Oh my!!! I understand completely and feeeeel your pain!!!
I needed a good laugh tonight! Thanks for sharing!!!
