Fall break

We are out of school this week on fall break and have done nothing but be lazy. My goal for the week was to get Adam's room cleaned up, but here it is Thursday already and it's not happened. Oh, well.

I have learned how to blog from my cell phone. I'm awesome like that.

Trying to catch up

I'm a really bad blogger. Now that our lives have settled down a bit and the worst seems to be behind us, I'm going to try to do better. We made it through Bobby's illness and death, and are looking toward the future. I have started seeing a great guy who is having a positive impact on all of us. It can only get better!

Adam: When Grandma's trees start hatching pears, can we have some?

Adam: Footloose? It sounds like their shoes are untied.

Me: You're the biggest pain in the butt there is! Adam: Well.... in the United States...

Adam: Once I invent a time machine, I'll show ya!

Adam: Wow, this is award-winning fog!

Adam: What if we had a voodoo doll of Mom? Imagine what we could do then! Me: How do you know about voodoo dolls? Adam: Well, I do watch a lot of TV...

Adam: I don't have the diarrhea anymore, I just have the pee-arrhea.

Adam: Why are you out here? Me: To enjoy the quiet. Adam: You've come to the wrong place.

Adam: I can't help but notice that Aunt Ruby found her false teeth.

Me: I was so proud of you today. You did a great job! Adam: I don't think you should be all that proud.

Adam, to teacher at funeral home: Well, this is awkward.

Adam: I'm not civilized.

Adam: Are you going grocery shopping today? Me: I don't know. Adam: I can help you with that decision.

Adam: Rosie isn't skunky stinky now, she's just regular stinky, can she come in?

Adam: Did you eat that cookie? Me: No. Adam: That's what happens in court. Suspects always say no.

Having a hard time with the boy lately

I don't know if it's because of his dad being in the hospital on life support, or autism related issues, or just Adam being Adam, but the past couple of weeks have been horrible. I just can't get a break from him and he won't even go to sleep at night anymore. I need a nap.

Adam: I don't know why I cried. It was like I was in a movie for a few minutes.

Me: I want you to clean up your room, please. Adam: What's in it for me?

I told Adam to tell you thanks for dinner and he asked if you paid and I said yes, I have the card and he said "smart plan, twisted, but smart" (Ainsley)

Adam: It's never too late for grape juice!

Adam: I definitely know you do not like Transformers.
