This week’s grandma.

Okay it’s not that bad. It’s just odd. Last week I was out and having fun with the boys. This week I am at home making sleepy tea and stressing out because I should really have already been asleep by now. On a Friday. Dude. What a difference a week makes. Gotta love the J.O.B. yo. Anyhoo, water is boiled. BRB. Okay. So while that steeps I should like blog about something… Hrm. Actually I need to fold laundry. The buzzer just went off. BRB.

Okay. Back. What did I miss? Oh! I was going to blog something. Right. Well, I have to say it’s been a slow week. work has been good. Really good in fact. Except for that part that I have to keep going back day after day. Heh. And.. Wow. That’s all I have going on right now. Mmm, tea is ready… I do have a work story I could share. You see, I was at work the other day (duh) and there was this woman I was helping with some question about underwear. Her kids (all three of them) were in an uproar behind me as we spoke. She was getting visibly irritated and finally said to me “Will you please tell my kids to stop running around?!” It was spoken like a demand. Like it was my job. “Excuse me?” I said, “I am not the parent in the situation. I will not be disciplining your children!” I mean can you even? She went on how she was the parent, “I just need you to...” I cut her off, still declining. So then she turns to her brats and shouts “See? He said you have to stop that right now!” Now I was annoyed. I turned to the kids and said “I did NOT!” Srsly. What is wrong with parents nowadays?? *sips tea dramatically*

Okay. Happy weekend.

I was shopping yesterday with my 5 year old daughter and 3 year old nephew in tow. After about 45 minutes they got bored and started acting like brats. They got 2 warnings.

Guess what happened the next time they started running around? We left. I can’t even imagine a situation where I would ask a stranger to discipline my kid for me.
