These are some funny things that have happened this last week but won’t take up a full post so I’ll combine them.
1. On Tuesday TNT was driving tractor (the new one with auto steer) and he took my Nook & wireless internet with him. I get an email from Barnes & Noble thanking me for purchasing Angry Birds. I called him and asked what he’s doing. “Driving tractor” was his reply. I said I don’t think so I see you are playing Angry Birds. He started giggling and said oh yeah I owe you $2.99. sigh
2. TNT & his mom were both driving tractor on Tuesday and his mom called me and said TNT won’t fix my auto steer. I was thinking your tractor doesn’t have auto steer, but okay. She starts laughing and I said MIL don’t you think it should be installed first? lol You have to keep it fun while you are driving around and around.
3. Mildred is dating a new guy. We’ll call him Sweet Cheeks on here, but him and my hubby share the same name. Can you imagine how confusing that is? We live in a small town so I can already hear the rumors that will start TNT left Carrie for Mildred. Gotta love a small town.
4. On Tuesday night I drove over to the town Mildred lives in. Her co-worker who sells Premier Jewelry participated in an open house with Scentsy & Thirty-One. We were looking at the Scentsy stuff (I should mention I’ve never been to a Scentsy party or do much business with them) when Sweet Cheeks daughter who’s 10 said I love lip gloss. She was holding a little lip gloss looking container. I told Mildred I was going to buy a few for her. Mildred said Scentsy doesn’t sell lip-gloss. We got to looking at them and sure enough not lip gloss, but samples of wick-less candles. I’m sure you can imagine the laughter that erupted from us! Mildred said I can just see you walking around putting wax on your lips. But really is it any different than Carmex?
5. Before the party we went to eat pizza. Us three girls were sitting at a table and this weird guy walks in. He has crazy eyes and looks at each one of us. Me not wanting to say anything infront of Sweet Cheeks daughter I kept in my comment. Just then Little P says, “that was weird.” We started laughing so hard. Sometimes it’s hard to remember she’s only 10.
6. During that same meal I was telling Mildred I’d like to have a Tastefully Simple party, but I want a catalog party since I don’t like going to those parties. I told her that I emailed a Candy Casper from St. Francis about having a party. Little P said, “That’s my step-gma.” Again erupt with laughter.
7. Little P was telling me that she had gone to the pool with her dad & brother that day. And I thought she said her brother’s name but it was a kid named Sage. Anyway Sage jumped over some people and was put in timeout by the lifeguard. Well Sage lipped off and got kicked out of the pool. I asked Little P and asked if Sweet Cheeks was mad. She gave me a weird look and said no. I was telling Mildred about it and she said not Little K, but that kids name is Sage. No wonder Little P looked at me weird when I asked if her dad was mad. I also couldn’t figure out why Sweet Cheeks wouldn’t be mad because he tries to be pretty strict with his kids. Maybe I do need my ears checked like TNT says.
8. After the party I bought ice cream for Little P, Sweet Cheeks, Little K & myself. Mildred was talking to Sweet Cheeks on the phone and he asked Little K what he wanted. Little K said twist cone. Sweet Cheeks told him no that won’t work because it’ll melt before we get back to their house. So Little K said I’ll have a vanilla cone then. I had tears rolling. How cute is that? He got a twist ice cream in a cup in the end.
9. Last weekend we went to Nebraska for our second annual girls weekend to see Toby Keith & Brantley Gilbert. I bought a purse from one of the vendors there. It’s big and orange. Well I brought it to work on Monday and all the guys made fun of it. They asked if I had jerky in my saddle bag. My lady boss thinks its cute, but the guys all give me a hard time. They just don’t know style! But I even call it my saddle bag now! lol
10. On Father’s Day after spending the day with our Dad, Mildred and I headed to the wheat field. I rode in the combine with the FIL & Mildred with the MIL. On one round Mildred & the MIL flashed us (just lifted shirt not the bra). The FIL was on the phone so he didn’t see it. After he got off the phone I told him and he was all oh man I can’t believe I missed it. I told him he’ll have to flash them the next time. We were coming up to them and I said, Your UP! He lifted his shirt and showed off his belly with pride. Then almost ran into the grain cart. Everyone was laughing so hard! It was priceless!!
