I thought we needed to start a new one.
To play this game you ask a question, and the next person will anwser with a yes or go fish. I will start it since I was the last one to ask a question on the last topic.
Do your have to repeat things to your kids over and over, then when there dad gets home they ask them once and then they do what ever they werre told to do???

Go fish! Its the opposite here. Shannon knows Daddy wont press the issue, but she KNOWS I will! So he can ask her several times to do something & she will keep putting him off, then I'll come in, ask her once & she will immediately do it! It makes him SO MAD.
Did you ever invent anything?

Go Fish
Have you ever gone out clothes shopping and was shocked at how big you were in the 3 way dressing mirror? I'm slighty depressed from my quest to find a few summer tops...aaarrrggg!

Yes!!! That is why I dont try the clothes on anymore, at the store. Have you ever went to the store looking for something that you really wanted, and it was all out?

Thats a real problem around here. Being such a rural area, even the larger stores have a problem with having enough of something that goes even a little better than they thought it would. We have a certain chain store that gets 1 or 2 of any items like cameras or electronics and advertises a sale. They do it just before Christmas a lot and a rain ticket isn't enough. You don't have time to get it before Christmas.
( I have to try everything on in the store. I put a petite back and picked up a regular in the same size as the one I tried on and the regular is way to small and its a name brand. )
Have you ever looked at your kid and wondered how they got so big so fast, like they went from 2 to 10 overnight?

Almost every single day! Especially lately...Lord help me. A couple of weeks ago when Josh was at school, I pull out all his baby videos and watched them all afternoon. I boo hooed until I had to go pick him up from school. Time is so precious...
Do you ever think way ahead, like when your kids go off to college or move out, and you just break down in tears just thinking about it?

Go fish! I just can't think that far ahead. I start feeling panicky when I consider it, so I don't let myself. I do have to remind myself that if he doesn't leave and become independant, I didn't do my job right.
Have you ever told your kid you hope they have a kid just like them?

Go fish!! My mother used to say that to me & in some ways, I did! Shes just as stubborn as I was...lol.
As for the thinking ahead question, I do that all the time! I think of Shannon graduating, getting married, having babies. I wonder what she'll be like & what kind of husband she'll choose. It'll be sad and exciting at the same time. Their childhood goes way too fast, but watching them grow & become productive citizens can be rewarding as well.
Did you ever meet a celebrity?

Yes and eventually (after meeting many) I decided they weren't worth my awe.
Have you ever actually told someone off you've been wanting to tell off but never had the courage?

Yes and eventually (after meeting many) I decided they weren't worth my awe. I would like to meet Ellen Degeneres & David Lettermen. I'll have to travel to California someday if I'm ever gonna meet Ellen. They both seem like down to earth, genuinely NICE people. The celebrities I've actually met are local newscasters & they were all pompous! JJ's question still stands: Have you ever actually told someone off you've been wanting to tell off but never had the courage?
