    Wow! I always love a good stick up their butt person who can't see humor! My DAUGHTER and two SONS, which I affectionately call my spawn, crotchfruit, etc. know exactly what I want. They also know that thousands of homemade art projects, hand-prints etc are dear to me and in my cedar chest- never to be forgotten. They also know that I do not like breakfast in bed- the gesture was sweet, and I smiled and thanked them for their efforts each time they did it- but have since told them it's not my favorite. Since I am honest with my kids they aren't "crushed" nor are they upset in any way. They just come up with different ideas. You two are so completely ridiculous- that you actually think I would be so cruel as to mock a gift from my kids? My kids, who, if you read anymore of my blog you would know are the center of my universe? Again- it's called a sense of humor.....you both should get one. Oh, FYI, my children were sitting with me when I wrote this and then I read it to them. My 10 year old (who is autistic, BTW, and ANY gesture he makes especially spontaneously is more than well loved) said- "Well then, I am going to take you to breakfast AND lunch." good thinking kid. And my teenager laughed and threatened me with half frozen, half burnt Eggo waffles at 6:00 A.M. So, they won't be reading it on the internet, LOL! Even my CHILDREN have a better sense of humor than 2 grown ass women.... Thanks for commenting though- I needed my giggle for the day!

    Driving wasn't as bad a last week, but even in a 4WD I was sliding. There wasn't enough snow here to warrant school closing, but I believe there should have been a delay. Grosse Ile roads were crap this morning. I would never have put my kids on a bus in these conditions. I can't even imagine being a bus driver on days like this.

    I won't text and drive because it is flat out dangerous and irresponsible. My kids are in my car 95% of the time with me, and keeping them safe is my #1 priority. How could I do that if I was distracted by trying to text someone? What would I do if I were the cause of another person being gravely hurt or dying, or hurting my kids because of a text? Last year a good friend of mine almost lost her mom when a teen girl texting on her phone, driving too fast in a parking lot, hit a patch of ice and hit her. My friends mom spent 2 months in the hospital and is still going to physical therapy for the injuries sustained. Don't text and drive. Just don't. There is NOTHING worth risking your life or anyone else's. NOTHING.
