She's usually a weekly-do kind of person. <br />Oh, I know they keep coming back! My son is a sophomore in college and will be home this weekend. But it isn't the same when he comes back, even though he and his sister fight like he never left.

My cousin just joined her local Red Hat Society chapter and has been posting red hat pics, might have to do a side by side like this and send to her! <br />It's adorable you think your daughter will be off on her way at 18! hahaha Unless she goes off to college, then she will be off for awhile. I feel like my son will be in and out of this house for decades yet and he turns 20 this summer :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15170306739961711124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814181789754982227.post-60167643208497459922015-02-10T14:43:15.090-06:002015-02-10T14:43:15.090-06:00I can find the thankful in the worst of situations...I can find the thankful in the worst of situations. <br />Worst thing to fold EVER. Plus they hide other pieces of laundry within their elastic corners, so when you pull them out of the dryer to wad up, I mean, fold, pillow cases or the occasional sock are hidden in there and roll out, still damp.Dyanne @ I Want Backsieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04946323852124525597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3814181789754982227.post-72797408091233789342015-02-10T14:40:22.261-06:002015-02-10T14:40:22.261-06:00Thanks, Mary!

WOOT WOOT! :D So glad you liked it and that it got you writing. Been there done that and got some good ideas from others, so glad to pay it forward.<br />Wow...some real crap in your week, but really none that were horrible, right? And you turned all of them into great things. Especially glad you didn't land in the poo. More glad Ruby (and my Rotten three) do not have opposable thumbs. That makes me feel much safer.<br />Have a great week!!! And thanks for coming around and catching up on all of mine when I saw all those comments in my spam I got very happy.

When I called to say she would be late to school, I said she wasn't feeling well, which was true; she nearly threw up three times, THREE TIMES, in the license office before she took the driver's test.<br />Isn't that picture hilarious?! At least she has a good humor about it and saw it in herself!<br />I don't know how I can be around that much snot and not be sick all the time, unless I have built up quite an immune system! The steel barrier was breached, though. I'm glad it was over the weekend.
