Whaa?
Heard from the other side of the bathroom door this morning.
(Reece) "Give 'im some soup and put 'im to bed."
(Me, perplexed) "What?"
(Reece, again) "Give 'im some cold soup,..." (pausing to let me "get it" this time, then with a slightly frustrated tone)"...and put 'im to bed."
(Me) "Where did you hear that?"
(Reece) "Mr. Quack told me."
(Me, ???) "Mr. Quack? Who is Mr. Quack?"
(Reece) "The Webkinz doctor. He told me to give Dot some soup and put 'im to bed."
Dot being Reece's prized Webkinz cow (who, I assure you, is now tucked snuggly into bed with a cow cold or bovine flu or whatever.)
Just goes to show you me, I can learn something new every day.
And on another "Whaa?" note, that's probably what Big Doofus would have thought, had dh text messaged him back yesterday (Big Doofus is Miss Sniz' dh, for those who don't already know this.)
See, both guys are fans of the Big Red Machine (more of a little red engine these days, but you didn't hear that from me). Anyway, the Reds were on. Big Doofus text'd dh to see if he was watching the game. Why no, he wasn't. That's because Doofai has some fancy spancy dish deal goin' on. Meanwhile back at La Casa de Pobreza (pobre: poorhouse, squeezin' nickels 'till they birth if you will), no Reds to be found.
Note: I'm totally joking about the poorhouse, btw ('cept for that little stint with mini meatballs last week, that is).
So, dh attempted to text Doofai back. Only,...what's this? The message would only appear in Espanol (which I suppose could have come in handy if he wanted Doofai to know that La Casa de Pobreza no es la-seeing de Rojo's.) So, being the techie-less kind of people we are, dh tried to get rid of the Espanol. And he did. And all other visible screen print as well. Hmmm, should be a fun fix for "somebody" (not mentioning any names,...Toni).
Okay then, since this post ended on a Spanish note, I give you this little treasure. It's appropriately called,...ONE SEMESTER OF SPANISH Spanish lovesong. But first, be sure to move to the bottom of this page and turn off the play list if it's on at this time. Enjoy!!! ;)

Bwaaaaaahaaaahaaaaaa!!! He's not doing too bad for one semester. Sarah has taken three YEARS and her best sentence is, "You have fleas." Too bad our dacshund doesn't speak Spanish.
As a little side note......You can't have "I Can Only Imagine" and "Guitarzan" on the same music player......something is going to short-circuit : )
That is so funny! LOL!
Toni, I visited your blog today via the CKMB, and am I ever glad I did! First of all, I usually can not hit the mute button fast enough when blog tunes start blaring, but God had other plans this morning. What a blessing it was to hear "Wings". It was new to me (not sure how I've missed it for 2 years!) and I am totally in love with those lyrics. Secondly, the baptism videos! My 13 YO is being baptized in a couple of weeks, so I could pass these along to her with a 'mom warning", lol.
Anyway, thank you for blogging in the Truth, as it were. I'll be back soon! Kelly
Too funny.
I am so techy challenged that I would probably just delete the entire function of the phone lol.
Oh and guys and their sports. I'm so lame I can't even tell you what sport the guys are cheering for:)
Happy Late Mother's day btw
Oh my gosh - I laughed my tail off! I don't even know how I found your blog. But it was a highlight!
Thanks!
Karin
Ok, I was having a TOTAL conflict of emotions as I read your so very funny post but listened to that Mark Harris song which turns me into a sloppy, sobby mess! (since you KNOW I was already on a sentimental kick) And when I scrolled down and saw your playlist I nearly fell over in shock. I cannot believe there is another soul who knows about GUITARZAN!!!!! I am now utterly and completely convinced that you and I were separated at birth. It is freakish, I tell you.
I "texted" him a few weeks ago just to see if he'd get it. Lo and behold he wrote me back. So, I've found a new way to talk about the Reds with Carl. He's from West Virginia, so it takes him a while to figure out these fancy schmancy electronal deevisus.
