Now that cross nation is over, I really feel like I have been making an attempt to atone for the entire issues that I uncared for for the final couple of months. Particularly the toilet and bed room undertaking! I’ve labored extra on it over the previous few days than I’ve within the final month.
Anyway, for Three Issues Thursday at the moment, I figured I would write three issues that made me snigger lately…
This primary one had me in awe and I used to be cracking up. Brian came to visit at the moment to get the bath/bathe attached. It really works! We simply cannot use it till I end the drywall and stuff round it. However we’ve got operating water there now. Anyway, he introduced Riley with him (she’s my niece who simply turned 4 years previous in August). Luke is in kindergarten now, so Riley has been coming over with Brian when he is right here engaged on the toilet.
I’ve to say, Riley is actually the neatest four-year previous I’ve ever identified. I am not exaggerating or being biased as a result of she’s my niece; she has an grownup vocabulary and typically she makes use of phrases that *I* do not even know what they imply! She will work issues out in her head actually simply, too–how stuff works, why issues occur the best way they do, and so forth.
Even figuring out all of this, I nonetheless snigger when she says one thing that’s completely not typical of a four-year previous. So at the moment, she was sitting at my kitchen island (keep in mind the one which was a complete nightmare to make?), and she or he was asking me questions in regards to the footage on it and she or he was spelling out the phrases.
Then out of nowhere, she ran her hand excessive of it and requested, “Is that this made from epoxy?” 🤣 I had by no means even heard of epoxy till we determined to apply it to our countertop. Anyway, she is so goddamn good. Right here is my favourite image of her, so you possibly can see how cute she is as nicely:
The second factor that made me snigger lately was the primary Halloween costume I ordered for cross nation. I had a pair of muscle pants at residence (only a enjoyable pair of tights that I would used for operating) and I used to be searching for a shirt that will go along with them, however I had no luck discovering one.
I discovered a full-body muscle go well with, nonetheless, and it had next-day delivery (I wanted it for our trick-or-treat run on Monday, and I ordered this on Saturday). I wasn’t positive about it as a result of it had a hood that coated the face, which I wasn’t loopy about. I ordered it anyway, considering I might simply reduce off the hood if wanted. I discovered one other muscle physique go well with that will be delivered Monday and I hoped it might arrive earlier than I needed to go away for cross nation apply. Then I might return the one with the hood.
Nicely, the one which arrived on Sunday was SO HIDEOUS. It was completely creepy! After I put it on, I could not see something in any respect due to the masks, however Joey began growling and barking at me and even Duck ran away from me at full velocity. Since I could not see, I requested Noah to take an image. I almost died once I noticed it! Hahahaha. How creepy is that face?! It was bizarre as a result of it coated my complete physique, together with my arms and ft.
I’m SO glad that the opposite one was delivered within the early afternoon Monday, as a result of there isn’t a manner I’d have worn that one above to cross nation apply. The children would have cried, hahaha. This one under is what I ended up wearing–I actually prefer it!
And the third factor that made me snigger lately was what occurred to our poor pumpkins that we would carved. I do not know if it was the hotter climate we had for a few days or what, however they mainly turned completely black and moldy on the within, shriveling up and inward.
All of them regarded humorous, however Jerry’s regarded the creepiest. When Riley got here inside at the moment, she stated, “Jerry’s pumpkin seems to be very creepy!” So we ended up throwing them over the dike into the woods. However take a look at Jerry’s pumpkin. It seems to be so evil, haha.
Anyway, these are three issues that made me snigger lately. Now I’ll go work on the toilet some extra. Dave and Renee are supposed to come back over on Halloween, and I *want* to get the storage cleaned up. The mess is ridiculous–drywall, plywood, mud, and so forth.
