102

 (2013) Remember that I mentioned that it is 102 degrees here in Myrtle Beach?  I just discovered that Lily left a half eaten Hershey bar in the back seat of my car two days ago ....

Purist

 Robert Skeet Taylor and I got frozen yogurt at a place that had over 40 toppings ... and Skeet got NONE!  Just plain chocolate yogurt. HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?!!! I had mini M&Ms, kit kat pieces, rainbow sprinkles, mini Reese's, Oreo bits, Heath bar crumbles, AND a blue gummi bear on MY yogurt!!!  Skeet calls himself a "purist" ... I call him WEIRD!!

Bloated

(2013) Dylan and Lily are going to watch a Lego Batman movie and they want me to get out the air mattress for them to lay on while they watch.  Lil just came running into my room and said, "Mom!  We need to get the air mattress all bloated up!"

Yogurt

(2013) I am definitely raising a Southern girl!  I just asked Lily Claire what she wanted for a snack and she answered, "Yo-Grits", which is what she thought was the name for "yogurt."  Love it! 

Cruel

 (2013) I am cracking up at Brandon because he is OUTRAGED that ESPN is showing some international spelling bee instead of baseball.  A cruel twist of fate for a 15 year old boy stuck at home this evening!  Hahahahaha!!!

Hunk

(2013) Lily was describing Robert Skeet Taylor at lunch: "a person with black white gray hair, wrinkly forehead, hairy arms, and a scratchy face." WHAT A HUNK!!  I am laughing soooo hard!!! 😂😂😂 

Bonfire

Seriously considering burning all the dirty laundry in a bonfire in the backyard rathering than doing it all today!  No one would notice a twenty foot burning pile of cloth in my backyard, would they?!!! 

Gerbil

 (2013) Lily just asked me if she could have a JEWEL-BALL.  ????  Finally realized she was trying to say GERBIL!  I think the Jewel-Ball is a better option.

Lipstick

 (2013) So I delievered some news to Lily Claire last night that was followed by ten minutes of uproarious squealing, jumping, twirling, and clapping with delight.  Did I tell her we had won the lottery?!  No.  Did I tell her we were going to Disney World?!  No.  Did I tell her she could wear pink lipstick to her ballet recital tonight?  Yes!  It was a major lipstick celebration at our house.  :)

Concert

 I signed up for this site called "Bandsintown" that tracks when music groups that you like are going to be in town doing concerts.  It automatically gets information from your Itunes playlists and puts those artists in a tracking system for you.  It then gave me some suggestions for some other groups I might want to see in concert based on my current favorites.  I had to crack up when it suggested that I be notified when GENE KELLY was coming in concert!  That concert would be quite a marvel since he DIED in 1996!!  I DEFINITELY want to know about THAT concert so I can be the first to get tickets!

Baconator

 (2016) ONLY for her 16 year old son would a true Southern woman ever be caught dead ordering something at Wendys called a TRIPLE BACON-ATOR BURGER with extra bacon, gynormous supersized fries, and enough sweet tea to fill a bathtub!  Even the lady at the counter was laughing as I stood there ALONE in my pink sweater and pearls ordering that monstrosity!!! I must have said "It's for my son" eighteen times!!!! Next time he's getting a side salad and a diet coke.

Weights

 (2019) Lily was using some of Skeet’s handheld weights this evening. After about ten minutes of pumping the weights up and down, she informed me that her arms were now very “musculent.”  😂😂😂

Naked and Afraid

 Robert Skeet Taylor loves the show Naked and Afraid, and I must admit, it sucks me in every time! The other night while we were watching an episode, I asked him, “Do you think we could survive 21 days in some terrible, wilderness, survival situation?” 

Skeet: No answer. 

Me: What?? You don’t??

Skeet: Not really. 

Me: ... Why?? Would I be the weak link?!

Skeet: No answer. (smart man)

Sheesh!! I have NO IDEA why he would think that!! I only constantly complain if I’m tired, hungry, thirsty, hot, cold, dirty, itchy, cut, scratched, sunburned, sore, scared, wet, damp, near a bug, or in any way slightly uncomfortable!  WHY would I not be the ideal partner in the jungle for a month?! 😂😂😂 Skeet must be crazy to pass up that kind of paradise!

Skeleton

(2012) Life with Dylan:  This morning we were talking about Easter and I said, "Jesus died for us then rose from the grave three days later!"  Dylan:  "Cool!  So Jesus is a skeleton now?"  Sigh.  "No Dyl, Jesus is not a skeleton!" 

Favoritist

 (2012) I gave Lily a new Berenstain Bears book this morning and she gasped real big and said, "Wow! This is my most favoritest book I never seen!"
