Practicality

Recently I came to the conclusion that I was so over my monthly payment for the Tahoe, insurance and gas (ugh!). But mostly, I am so over breaking my back trying to buckle my two gals. Seriously. I am 5'2"...literally climbing into the truck to buckle kids, is way over rated! So I ditched the Tahoe and got a minivan. That's right, I said it. Minivan. And I gotta tell ya...I freaking love it!

So, it's a Honda Odyssey and I must say I am in love with Honda and all of their fabulous practicality.

Hot mamas drive minivans. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

Someday...

My Julia is obsessed with infomercials. She watches them diligently and then suggests who she thinks will benefit from the product. For instance, the "big city slider station" she wanted to get for me because "mom's love it." She still wants the "touch and brush" for herself because there is "no mess." What ever the tag line in the ad is, she fits it to someone! I have grown accustomed to her watching these infomercials and when she asks to have it, I tell her "maybe." Literally every commercial/infomercial she sees on tv, she wants for herself or someone else. So when an ad came on yesterday for some new Sketcher shoes that she wanted I told her "maybe."

She politely asked, "Mom, can you say 'maybe someday' ?''
So I did.
Her reply really got me off guard....

"Good, can someday be Saturday?"
