Show and Tell

My five year old excited that the letter of the week at school was "G", tells me that she is going to bring herself, as her name starts with the letter "G". I tell her that she can tell the class that she is a "green eyed girl named G.G." Her response to that is "Mom, I think that they already know that."

So as show and tell day, Friday, approaches I ask her if she wants to wear her green dress for show and tell too. She informs me that she is no longer taking herself for show and tell that she is going to take something else.

Randomness

"Due to my lack of planning and my calender challenged mind... like my brother, he's fat, and he says that he is vertically challenged...  I will see you tomorrow."

"I know that I am fat, but fat people don't like to be told that they are. My friend she is fat too and we talk about it, which is OK because we both are. But we don't go into details."

"I love a man in a uniform. Although the only one that I ever dated was a garbage man. I used to tell him to take the uniform off, I wouldn't let him keep it on, because of the smell. A man in a prison jumpsuit would probably smell better."

"If left my heating pad on my neck too long I wonder if it would set my hair on fire."

Dreams

Ziggy talking about strange dreams...

"You should probably not eat cheese before bed or that stop smoking stuff. I had to stop taking that stop smoking stuff because I was having crazy dreams. Like this one... I went to the mall on my lunch break and went to the restroom before I left.When I came out of the restroom I kept getting stuck in mazes. So, everyone from work came to find me because it was like two hours that I was gone, when everyone got there they were all dressed in Mardi Gras outfits except the for one person he was dressed up as Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz with big red sparkly sneakers on."

Wonder what the meaning behind that dream was?

The Tooth Fairy

This past week G.G. lost her first tooth. So, we put in under her pillow that night, as every child does when they loose their tooth. The next morning she came to wake me up to tell me that the tooth fairy did not come last night... OOPPSS Big mistake. I told her that maybe the Tooth Fairy had a busy night and did not have enough room in her bag for her tooth or maybe since she lost it late in the day that she did not get the memo that G.G. lost her tooth. SO... How awful could I possible feel that day. So we left it under her pillow for the Tooth Fairy to come the next night. She did come and this is the conversation that we had upon waking me to tell me.

Mommy- sound asleep feels a slap on the head. Eyes slightly open turns to see what has hit me and I see a little girl standing there holding two $1 in her hand.
G.G.- "The Tooth Fairy came!!"
Mommy- "I see. How much did she give you?"
G.G.- 'Two dollars."
Mommy- "Ok, I think that you should put it in your wallet so we don't loose it."
G.G.- "Ok. I am ready for some cereal."

So we get up and we continue the conversation.

Mommy- "Wow, she brought you $2?"
G.G.- "Yeah. I think I know why."
Mommy- "Why?"
G.G.- "Cause she missed me the other night. So she gave me $2 cause she gives the other kids $1."

Daddy gets up and calls out to her.
Daddy- "Did the Tooth Fairy come last night?"
G.G. "Yeah."
Daddy- "How much did she give you?"
G.G.- "two dollars."
Daddy- "Wow."
Mommy- "Tell Daddy why you think that she left you that much."
G.G.- "Because she missed me the other night and so she left me $2 cause she left the other kids maybe, $3 or $4 or $5s."
Mommy-I don't think that she gave the other kids that much. I think that cause she missed you the first night he gave you $2."
Daddy- "I don't think that she missed you the first night. I think that her bag was so full that she could not put one more tooth in it or it would break."
G.G.- "Yeah you are probably right."
Mommy- "what do you think that she does with all those teeth?" trying to get her to say something silly...
G.G.- "I don't know."

So while I did not get a very creative answer with what she does with the teeth I did cover the Tooth Fairy's butt. I think that she may owe me one. A little girl was not upset and pretty excited to find $2 under pillow the next morning.
Lesson learned

Randomness

This posting is just a hodgepodge of things that I have heard out of the mouths of everyone throughout my day. Instead of making separate postings for these ones I thought that I would collect them all and when there are several I will share them all in one post.

Ziggy- "It takes me back to like the 60s/70s. Because I'm old ya know."

Guppy- "... I like fungus', apparently." The funny part of this statement is the apparently statement.

Ziggy- this was said about a male that came through the door that she found attractive. "I'll hold your flashlight for you. I'll make your light shine bright."

I came into work and stated that I thought the moon looked like a Chesire cat. Ziggy states the following... "Really, I thought that it looked like a pork rind."
I just don't know where these things come from.

Hair Color

While sitting with a friend one day we were discussing and looking at new hair colors and styles.

She shows me a picture and says...

Sadie- "What do you think my boss will say if I come in with hair like this... (black and purple)?
Me- "I don't know but, probably would not be happy. Most places have dress code rules"
Sadie- "I do not remember seeing anything about no purple hair."
Me- "I still don't think that it would be a good idea."
Sadie- "Well, how do they not know I don't come from planet Goofball."

I think that she was trying to imply that she could get away with the colored hair if she explained that she did not come from planet Earth that she was from planet Goofball.

Now also remember that this comes from the mouth of an adult and not a child...

High Heels

While with friends one day we were discussing high heels. There were a pair that I seen at a store that I feel in love with but they did not have my size. So we were talking about heels.

This is what one of the girls had to say about heels...

"I'm falling apart, I'm getting old.
I have heel spurs and arch problems.
I'm getting fat and my feet can't take wearing heels anymore."

You just gotta laugh, how can you not. She, we will call her Ziggy, even laughs.

"I Bit My Finger!"

While making dinner one evening, my 5 yr old daughter was sitting in the kitchen with me and this is the conversation that we had...

G.G.- "Mommy, I bit my finger."
Mommy- "Goof. Why'd you do that?"
G.G.- "I'm not a goof."
Mommy- "Well tell your mouth not to bite your finger."
G.G. "I did and it didn't listen. See, (mouth opens and finger goes in it.) Ow. It did it again."

Oh the things that little kids say...

Welcome!

I want to welcome everyone to the new blog!! I have always enjoyed writing, so I thought that I would start this blog to share so many things that I hear. A lot of the thoughts are going to be randomness. Things that I hear throughout my day that make me smile or make me say "OK, where did that come from."

I have promised everyone that I would not use their real names when using their statements on the blog.

The ramblings are from females that are apart of my life of all ages.
My goal is to write one everyday. Eventually I would like to get to a point where everyday of the week will have a theme. But for now, since I have a list of these ramblings I am just going to post them in no particular order.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope that when you are feeling down and come to the blog for a cheer up these brighten your day!
