True and funny stories from the lighter side of raising my sons and daughter. As the Southern mama of this crew, I'm usually somewhere between "Bless your hearts!" and "Y'all act like you got some sense!" If we ever need to find our way home, we just follow the trail of red clay and glitter.

Stop Calling, Steve!
My funny story for this week ... we have home phones that will "announce" who is calling once the phone rings. It's a lady computer type voice that can be hard to understand sometimes. Anyway, the other morning I was super busy trying to arrange haircuts, get house chores done, and get Bran ready to take to senior pictures, etc. And, of course, the phone kept ringing and ringing all morning. Every time the caller ID said, "Call from ... Steve." I never actually looked at the phone or number since I was busy and by the third call from "Steve," I was shouting back to the caller ID, saying things like, "STEVE, I don't know you!" ... "Steve, Quit calling me, I'm busy!" and "STEVE, GIVE IT UP! STOP CALLING!!!" Finally after about four or so calls from Steve, I stomped over to the phone as it rang again and I actually READ the caller ID ... which said "SKEET" NOT "Steve," as the lady computer voice kept saying! (Guess she didn't have anything in her database for the word SKEET.) Poor Skeet had been calling all those times from Pep Boys, needing a ride home while they worked on his car. Oh dear. I will definitely be taking calls from STEVE from now on! Hahahaaa! Sorry, Skeet! :)
