Yes, I've been MIA for the past month. But, I have been busy with home and work, I just could not justify time spent blogging. The good news, I still read your blogs :) Lots of happy events with all of my bloggy friends. So happy cheer joy to you. Thanks for keeping your blog updated so I can take a break from my life for a beat.
We live in a cornfield in a new home. We get mice when it gets cold. Every year I think, oh, this year we wont get them. Absolutely gross. This morning we were blessed with our first mouse. This mouse could not sing his name in a catchy tune nor could he cook. He was just gross. I heard those squeaks this morning as I started to shriek myself. I knew we had a captive. My lovely heroic aunt who watches the kids for me during the day was brave enough to dispose of the truant. If left up to me, that stinker would have been left for the hubby to dispose of. So, now back to tiptoeing in my home and looking around corners. I just know I am due for a micey to run up my leg and scurry in my hair. Worry much? Bleh.
Speaking of little Rattioulle, my son was SO excited about his visit. He could not wait to tell everyone at Pre K. I am sure he will have LOTS of friends over now to the mouse house.
The white Catholic vote. I heard that term several times on the news last night. I was proud that Catholics seemed to rally against this mess that is happening. I cannot believe that our government wanted tax payers to pay for contraceptives and abortions. COME ON. MY MONEY!!!! Right. The whole idea is abhorrent to me. I do agree that there are varying degrees of the Catholic. Those who just identify as Catholic and those who practice Catholicism. Maybe it was just the fact that no one is happy with government. And frankly, most people are either Practicing or Pretend Catholics anyway. Maybe its always been a "Catholic Vote" Either way, I was proud that we made a difference in our vote. Now lets see the REAL change that we have all been waiting for.
We were all out eating a few days ago. At the table next to us was a couple and their baby. My daughter looked up at me and said "Take it!!" I said "What?!" Again she said "Take it" She wanted me to take their baby! The couple heard, I laughed it off. But, I guess they are ready for a baby brother or sister. I will also make sure to patt her down when she is near any baby...just a precaution.
So there you have it. Blogity blog silence shattered. peace.
