Quotable Quotes #15

We had a pretty busy day, today. I had a pot of soup cooking, but not quite as fast as I'd planned it to be. While Bboo and I were at Walmart, she smelled a fresh loaf of bread, and since she hadn't eaten all day, asked if we could take it. Who can refuse a loaf of fresh bread? After we arrived home, only to meet up with Daddy and the Drama Queen, the following conversation takes place.

Drama Queen was asking for something…I don't remember what.

B-boo, "Stop complaining. Seems to me, you got Taco Bell. I only got bread."

Me, "Yes, dear, but as I recall, it was a whole loaf of bread!"

Quotable Quote #14

B-boo and I were watching, "Say yes, to the Dress."

Some of the dresses are very expensive. I told her not to count on a $10,000 dress.

Then I told her not to count on a $5000 dress.

Her reply?

"I'm not getting married, Mom."

I replied she would.

Her reply?

"I don't want the responsiblity of dealing with an emotional man."

Ya gotta love her!

Quotable Quote #13

B-boo cracks me up! She has some serious issues when it comes to people not walking straight. It's hysterical to walk with her in a group of people because it drives her crazy to have people walking crooked in front of her. Sometimes, just to have fun, I'll purposely start walking at an angle, pushing her over a bit…and it drives her bonkers. She's a very organized teen (that's why she's been working with me all week!), even when it comes to something as simple as walking through a mall…or a store.

Take Costco, for instance. We were walking down the aisles today and I need to go left. So, I started to curve to the left; only she didn't like that. So we have the following conversation:

B-boo: "Mommmm, walk straight!"

Mom: "I am walking straight. I needed to turn left. I'm curving."

B-boo: "You're curve isn't straight! Your making a swurvy curve instead of a smooth curve."

I never knew there was such a thing as a swurvy curve. Ah…she makes me laugh…and that brings me joy.

For more joy, visit Good, True and Beautiful.

Quotable Quote #11

I was at a friend's home the other day, talking to her husband while she was out of the room. We were discussing her lack of the ability to say, "No," when her 4 year old son piped up,

"I know how to say no!"

His father replied that indeed, he was very good at saying, "no."

To prove it, the little man proudly showed us.

"NNNNOOOOOO!"

Yup, he's pretty good at it! Maybe he should give his mother some lessons!

Quotable Quote #10

It's not often I have a quotable quote from the Good-Looking One, but yesterday's conversation had me in stitches!

I invited him to come along to the movies with us. The following conversation took place:

Him, "Sorry, can't make the movie, going to *** beach today."

Me, "Are you going alone?"

Him, "No, gonna go with J…pray for us that she doesn't make us crash the boat."

Me, "Oh, man! I will pray!"

Him, "Pray hard. Do hail Mary's…whatever helps."

Him, "When I am with J, I pray to everyone associated with Him, to make sure He knows I survive by His grace!"

Later, I asked him if was dead. His reply?

"Almost. She almost tipped the canoe."
