good grief--get addicted to Facebook and PUFF!! Your blog goes down the bloggy drain!
OK let's see......
This is my nephew David and my sis--his mom Angie...I can hear u now...You have a sister??!
OH the things you don't know about moi...
anyhoooo....David left for bootcamp on the 4th. And I don't mean the she-she-poo-poo bootcamp all the skinny moms are doing to get ready for spring break....I'm talking ARMY!! Believe me, I tried everything...bribes...lies...blackmail...but he still went. I know I know!! I should be ashamed, but honestly I just don't want anything to happen to him, so then my Taylor says to me, Mom, don't you know God's hand will be on him? (Thanks Jesus) So what do ya say to that--who knew a 13 yr old actually listened...didn't work when I told her to clean her room.
Anyhow, ARMY---ya know, I couldn't do it....crawling in the mud, sleepin outside, and really what would get me is being yelled at. Now, don't get me wrong, I can take alot, but just signing up for some Joe to scream in my face isn't my cup of diet coke. I would just opt out, 'eh, I'm gonna have to pass onthis one, but Thanks!'......so I will be an Army aunt, mail whatever he wants and smuggle him into Canada, err, I mean send lots of postcards.........
What else......sold my 1st set of life insurance policies and cancer policies...........LOVE my ENLYTEN stuff and everybody needs some/should sign under me and GROOOWWWW........
Won at Bunco and didn't even roll the dice.....;)
oh yeah, life lesson here--our dishwasher broke and repair guy says just buy new one, soooo
the kids have gotten a new treat...washing dishes....(b/c I haven't bought one yet--its only been 2 days) SO.....my son--who can tell you when something isn't scientifically possible, name every stinking detail to some 3rd world country and spell every word I've never heard of--has NEVER hand washed dishes. So, I get him started--meaning I sat at the bar and supervised and it occurred to me that he was washing yet not rinsing....hhmmmm, uh son, you gotta rinse them off. He says, no you don't, the soap will just slide off as it dries.....did he just say..........(I'll wait for u....I know, I was stunned too and then had to laugh awhile until I realize he's serious) uh, no son, you have to rinse the soap off or it will create a soap residue that won't taste so good w/your chicken.
No mom, it will just dry off, it will be fine.......(insert bell sound here b/c round 1 is off & runnin)
we go round & round....literally for half an hour on this.......I ended up finishing them b/c he was mad at me. Gary then comes home and gets the details and just looks at him and says,yeah son you gotta rinse them off....so then he stormed off to his room............AHH LIFE W/TEENAGERS! I say to Gary---maybe we should not get the dishwasher so quick, unplug the microwave and hide the TV remotes b/c our kids don't have a clue...........my mom didn't even HAVE a microwave until AFTER I was MARRIED!!
I wonder how much they pay for the family TV reality shows........"Hangin w/the Hollons"..........
"Callin All Hollons"........"HAHAHA w/the Hollons".....I could go on for days........... ;)

I would've said "because I said rinse them". However, I've found that as the kids get older, even that doesn't work.
(you do know you can leave comments on my blog too, right?)
I would watch a reality show about your family and not just because I {heart} reality shows......you're special.
Really...you need to take your family to that place where you live like it was the 1500's!!! Now that would be hysterical with the Hollons!!!
OK...this really made me laugh. We have no dishwasher here...yea...miss it. Poor Brady..all that knowledge, at least you can still teach him something!
