“Can I have some pretzels?”
“oops”
-Luke Passey
That’s how Hour 5 started…how hard is it to keep a bowl of pretzels from flying across the floor? After I got my Bella fix (she is such an inspiration)…I decided to tackle the Pantry. Sara was gonna get around to it this week, but got too busy – so this morning, in desperation, she offered the boys $3 to tackle it. They said $5…but apparently even that wasn’t worth their precious time this afternoon. So I dug everything out, swept and started putting stuff back. Found Max’s treasured yellow watch!! He lost this about two weeks ago and has been somewhat dissatisfied with every replacement since then. I’ll be ‘the man’ later when I reveal that prodigal toy. I also learned that, when working in the Pantry, I am about as effective in keeping my pants up as Luke – should have been a plumber. So I had collected the spilled crackers, macaroni, and fusilli noodles with a broom and asked Luke to bring me a small vacuum to suck’em up. His first question? “Will I get money?” - uh no… He sees that there are only about two brooms left to put back and asks... “Can I finish the rest so I can get the money” - nice try. I did find a sealed bag of Vanilla wafers though – spoils of war for me! Oh by the way – Brooke is not taking a nap – I went up and checked on her – Poopy diaper.
Under 50 hours left…
