Ohio jokes

You knew it was only a matter of time before jokes about how sad Ohio State is and how GREAT LSU is started circling the Internet. Here is the first of many. Of course I am also hearing jokes but they are too bad to put up here, right Mom. I tell you that woman’s mouth would make a Marine blush. Love you

The festival at Kokuseki temple

East Japan Railway Co. has said “no” to the promotion posters for the festival held at the Kokuski temple saying the posters amounted to sexual harassment.  I agree with the Rail company, what woman wants to see chest hair?  I know I don’t!!!!!  The festival has been held for over 1,000 years where men dance in loincloths and wrestle for charms made of wood.

One more night in the crib

Well she did not get out of the crib last night so we got one more night out of it.  I am trying to hold off for as long as I can before putting her in a toddler bed because I do not think she is really right now.  I am going to measure her tonight to see how tall she is because at 35 inches she has to come out of the bed.  I know she is not 35 inches but I want to see how much time we have left to prepare.  If she comes out one more time she is out of the bed completely I can not risk it.  I am hoping it was a one time thing and it does not happen again.  I talked to daycare yesterday and they told me that she has never climbed out of the crib at school so that is good to know.

Take control of your life

Do you think the just because you do not live in a famous city you can not get that same los angeles weight loss doctor? Well think again. You can find great weight loss doctors in Houston and Tampa also. Journey Lite has offices in three major cities for your convenience. Start your new year of right by doing something just for you. Take control of your life and body. Just remember you must do it for yourself not your boyfriend, husband, girlfriend, wife or parents, this is for you and only you.

Meanest Mom in the world? I don’t think so

Finally, I see an article about a parent taking responsibility for raising their children.  When Jane Hambelton bought her son a car she had two rules: no drinking and keep it locked.  Well 3 weeks after giving her son the car she found alcohol in it.  She placed an ad in the newspaper and sold the car.  Way to go Mom!!!!!!  We must teach these children that even though it was not your fault or it was a stupid mistake there are always consequences for the things that they do.  Here is the ad she placed in the paper and I love it:

“OLDS 1999 Intrigue. Totally uncool parents who obviously don’t love teenage son, selling his car. Only driven for three weeks before snoopy mom who needs to get a life found booze under front seat. $3,700/offer. Call meanest mom on the planet.”
