In the beginning....then there was Swiffer!

It has been said that with each new beginning there has to be an ending.  With that being said I must say I am going to miss my Mater Car.  With barely a dry eye I signed her away at the dealership and took possession of my daughter's SUV.  I know it will take time to get accustomed to her but I will always miss my Mater car.   After all she was grandma's chariot.   I took a lot of good trips in that car.  Shared a lot of good memories with friends and family alike.  Oh well no one can say I'm not a good mother can they?  My daughter needed my car to trade for a new one.  That's what happens when you love your child, you sacrifice everything.  Expect nothing in return.  You won't be disappointed I promise.

Well it's the first day of August and we are still awaiting the arrival of Ella Claire.  I have never been good at waiting for anything.  Patience is hard for me especially when the outcome is such a wonderful thing as the birth of a baby.   I have waited a long time for this baby, now if I can just contain my excitement a little bit longer.....Oh and learn to share of course!  lol

I have found a new way to use my Swiffer!  Several people have told me to write the company and tell them this new idea.  I may yet do so but I thought I would share my idea with you my dears first!  Recently a mouse dared to poke his head in my house!  Yes he did!  He made it thru my vast yard filled with black snakes and cats!  Amazing I know!  And then he met me in my kitchen late one night.  I sized him up and grabbed my swiffer!  I chased him while Baxter barked!  (useless dog!)  Ran him into the utility room!  And lo and behold there was no cover on the electrical socket!  Hehehehehe  Yep you guessed it I poked him in the arse til he ran up the wall into the socket and electrocuted himself!  Ahhhh Victory!  Score One for the Mama!  Of course Baxter the dog is still barking!  So I took the handle of my Swiffer and drug the mouse out until I could flick him out the back door.  I was so happy I failed to notice an American cockroach making his entry into my house.  As I slammed the back door there HE sat, staring at me as if to say "What?  I live here now what are YOU going to do about it"  I never flinched I just smashed him with the other end of the Swiffer.  So when in doubt my dears, Swiffer to the rescue!

Well that's the way I see it today.....perhaps you do too?  Until we meet again, God bless you all!
