I have to be careful of what I say ’cause I’ve got a boy and a girl, but some of these others look like they’ve come out of my mouth a time or two…
Especially that screaming bit. I had to hand out a few spanks for THAT one yesterday. Grrr….
Happy TT!

My Tt could be 13 things I regularly want to say to Tom, but it would be unpublishable

Caylynn and Sonny- I figure if I start early there will never be a question about what is okay.
Tink, Silver, and Sanni- Thank you. Thank you very much. *grin*
Susan- Do they know anyother way to vocalize? At parent-teacher confrences I was told by both teachers that they are working on not being so loud. Does that mean I’m prob. the loudest?
Gypsy and Sparky- That’s the clean/not pissed off version.
Jenny- I like it. For some reason males don’t. *shrug*
Linda- Come back and post them here. When are you getting a blog?

Oh, yeah, my daughter knows other ways to vocalize. She’s four and she’ll talk your ear off if you’re not careful. Her vocabulary is amazing at times.
Problem is, she loves to be coddled and has found that a lot of times, if she acts younger than she is, others will buy into her act.
And no, if your kids are loud, that doesn’t mean you’re the loudest. But it could mean they feel that their teachers don’t hear them unless they ARE loud, ya know? Kids percieve things SO differently than we do, and they all seem to want ALL the attention, ALL the time. Being loud might be the only way they think they can be heard.

Susan- My little demons, I mean darlings, talk nonstop. When nap time comes I don’t know what to do. I don’t do baby talk though. It irritates me. Unfortunately, my girls know this and occasionally will use it to push my buttons. I think you’re right that in their eyes “being loud might be the only way they think they can be heard”. We’re working on it.

Good luck!
I don’t do baby talk, either. Nails on a chalkboard!

1. Learn a real vocabulary before you start making up words.
2. Can you see past your own nose?
3. You are a f______ idiot!
4. Never talk to me again.
5. Do you realize that you’re a perennial joke?!
6. Silence would be better than that little clucking sound you make.
7. Do you have to stand there with your hand on your hip, isn’t SOUNDING like a woman enough?!
8. Must you preface every statement with “on that same note” or “on a different note”?
9. Wash your own collection of crusty coffee cups.
10. Make a new pot of coffee when you use all but 1/4″.
11. I am not your Mom, clean up after yourself.
12. Spell and pronounce customers’ names correctly.
13. Nobody cares (or believes) that you were the best lineleader to ever work here.
I cleaned it up pretty good, didn’t I?

Linda- I love them. They are so true. What about him reminds me of a used car salesman?

I have used my Social Security number while on the Internet so now I am afraid to make any credit card purchases on-line because I think it will make my credit card account vulnerable. Right now I’m thinking about applying for a credit card online but I’m not sure that it is safe. Do you now what kind of security system they use at
