My beautiful Mom shocked me today by confessing that she sits down at the computer and reads my blog - or looks at the pictures, at least, every night before bed. She loves seeing all the pictures of the grandkids! So now I feel some added pressure - it has to be good for the BEST grandmother ever - right? Luckily my mom thinks most things I do are great- right mom??????
And one more story for the day - this one not kid related but pretty amazing none the less. CHC has a great program with Walgreens Pharmacy called a 430B program where uninsured people get drastically reduced prices on prescriptions if they are a patient of the health center and in return the Walgreens are housed within or very close to CHC medical sites. The program is unique and beneficial to uninsured and insured patients alike so I always try to get as many prescriptions filled there as possible for the kids and I. So I went in and had 4 prescriptions - I put them in and came back a few minutes later for pick-up. I was having a nice conversation with the new guy behind the counter - telling him what I do at CHC etc when he suddenly looked me up and down. He focused on my left hand and then smiled at me and said (this is no joke) "I don't see a ring on your finger - does that mean you are available?" I choked - literally on my own spit and responded that I was in fact married with three kids and another one on the way. His response was "I dig pregnant chicks and the marriage thing doesn't really bother me." I know I should be outraged and shocked but here I am wearing my frumpy Mom clothes, no make-up, grey hair (because I can't dye it until Monday at 13 weeks), and flip flops - filling prescriptions up the ying yang for a various array of issues (and pharmacy people know what these things are for!) and the guy was actually hitting on me hardcore! Is it bad that I'm flattered - big time flattered! When I told Bob his response was equally amazing - "It's not that shocking, honey, I'm sure you were the hottest babe that walked in there all day!" That is often what I'm referred to - a hot babe - right!!! So that was my fun story for the day!
I'm off to make a strawberry shortcake for Bob and I in preparation for American Idol. I was going to boycott because Carly got voted off but I HAVE to see the dreadlock guy finally leave - he barely keeps a tune and he is so NOT cute! UH-OH I try not to make inflammatory staements on the blog - to anyone who is a Jason fan I respect your right to enjoy him but I don't - get over it!
Good Night, Mom! Your darling daughter loves you like crazy!
