LaLaGirl – Twinfinite Chaos! Parenting Multiples and Dealing with Autism

I always think I’m on the ball and ready for whatever’s on the agenda, and then I realize I forgot to buy envelopes for our Christmas cards, I’m out of tissue paper to go in the teacher’s gift bags, and I was supposed to cut up a big square of fleece so Mallory can turn it into a tie blanket at Girl Scouts. Gah! Santa, for Christmas this year I want a special day-timer that slaps me upside the head every 46 minutes and says, “Get off your ass! You need to brown the meat for dinner and put the clothes in the dryer!” That would be very helpful. Please and thank you.

In other news, my nephew Casey spent several months in South America, bumming around with a friend of his and taking amazing pictures of the scenery (and women.) He just got back into town a couple of nights ago and the kids and I went to see him last night. Gosh, we’ve missed that kid! Not that we would have seen him more often than we did if he hadn’t left town, but he just seemed so inaccessible and FAR away when I knew he was in Argentina! I’m so glad he’s going to be home for Christmas and get to spend time with his family.

And all of a sudden, it’s noon. Guess I’d better do some of that stuff I mentioned!

We’re having weird THUNDER SNOW and it seems like it’s causing me to have a weird day. In the span of about half an hour, I…

• Left my warm house in a blizzard with all my children for apparently no reason, because I ended up dropping Kayley at her dad’s house a half a mile from school. I feel relatively certain if we’d had better communication, K’s dad’s girlfriend could have easily picked her up and saved me the trip. But while I was stuck in the pickup line, I…
• Sent what I thought was a funny, kind of naughty text to my husband where I mentioned his weiner and the possibility of getting freaky tonight, except I didn’t send it to him. I sent it to HIS BEST FRIEND INSTEAD. So, while I died a thousand deaths, I drove home withOUT Kayley, where I…
• Got stuck in my own driveway because of all the snow, and had to put my Tahoe in 4wd to get up my driveway, even though we’re NOT SUPPOSED TO USE 4WD AT ALL until we get new tires, because one of our tires is the wrong tread size, and apparently, driving in 4WD while this is the case will cause the engine to fall out or something. I thought I could be sneaky and use 4WD for like, three feet, to get up my driveway and into my garage, but NO, now my Tahoe is STUCK IN 4WD and I’m totally busted! And speaking of busted, I decided to go get the mail while I was out there and I…
• Fell on my ass between the driveway and the mailbox while wearing Crocs in slippery snow, and left perfect assprints and a left handprint in the snow where I tried to catch myself. I would have taken a picture, but they’ve long been snowed over. While trying to nurse my wounded pride, I called my sister to tell her this story and she laughed at me, and then told my mom about me sending a dirty text to Paul’s friend. Thanks, sissie. Love you!

Colorado springtime snow, you can suck a fat dick. You’ve ruined my whole day!!
