Beam Me Up, Scotty

I think it's time! :o)

Another Fuzzy Funny

Judson: Can I have dessert?

Mom: What do you want?

Judson: What do we have?

Mom: One cookie, lots of candy.

Judson: I'll have lots of candy!

Yet Another Judson Funny...

Yesterday in the car, Judson was sharing with me the story of Moses. You might recall, the last time he told me the story -- it was when the Israelites were crossing the Red Sea and he said God took a paper towel and dried up the water -- "a great big paper towel"...

Well, this time, he took me back to the beginning of Moses' life. He told a precious version of Moses as a baby all the way through the plagues. At one point he told how Moses went to the desert and there was a bush burning up. Judson remembered the Voice in the bush that said, "Moses, take off your sandals. You are on holy ground." At that point, Judson interrupted the story to tell me that that is his favorite part. When I asked him why he said, "I like the holy ground. It's cool. You can drop sticks on it and they turn to snakes!"... :o)

Well, I have to agree. Holy ground is very cool!

Another Funny from the Fuzz...

Fuzz: Okay, have fun, mom.

Mom: Okay.

Fuzz: I'm just kidding. Mom's don't get to have fun...

:o)

Should it worry me when...

I drop Josh off at school, and he is participating in "crazy hair week", but I can't tell which kids are and which are just wearing their normal style...

Happy Monday!

Earthen Vessel: Quirky Tag

Quirky Tag

I've been tagged by Amanda. I'll play along, but this will take some thought. Six unspectacular quirky things about myself...

1. I have a hard time sitting still. In fact, that is the most challenging thing about my job as a medical transcriptionist.

2. I find it difficult to pray when I am not moving. This is NOT related to number one. A few years ago I found that the best time to pray is when I'm out walking or jogging early in the morning -- can't fall asleep and/or get interrupted. The drawback is on those rare occasions the weather does not cooperate, I have to walk around in my house or on my covered patio while I pray in order to concentrate. Hmm, maybe it is related to number one...

3. I have a "black thumb of death" rather than a green thumb when it comes to growing things, which is a real bummer as I love flowers, fresh veggies, etc.

4. I have an eye phobia. I fear being poked in the eyes. I have no idea where this phobia came from, but I could definitely be goggle queen!

5. I'm not good with toenails -- especially on other adults. I don't like someone else to manicure my toenails, and I don't like to do someone else's toenails -- especially the clipping part. Polishing isn't so bad.

6. I have overcome my fear of spiders, thanks to my children. I have grown from having dreams of spider-covered hallway walls and taking literally days to move an encyclopedia off a recently crushed spider to killing them with my bare hands! Oh yeah, I am spider woman!

Here are the rules:
* Link the person who tagged you
* Mention the rules in your blog
* Tell about six unspectacular quirks of yours
* Tag six following bloggers by linking them
* Leave a comment on each of the tagged blogger’s blogs letting them know they’ve been tagged

Uh, I'm going to have to explore the world of blogging to come up with six bloggers. I'm sort of a loner in the blogging world at this point. I'll work on that one as time allows. If anyone has suggestions of who I can tag, please do pass them along. Those of you who are just readers and not bloggers -- get a blog and play tag with me! :o) Sadly, my blogging exploration time is fairly limited until school's out, so until June...

Out of the Mouth of Fuzzy

When you need a laugh, try checking this blog from time to time as I am going to attempt to keep his quotes updated. So many quotes, so little time...

Referring to his brother going to China..."I'm going to China. I'm going to Oklahoma first, and then going to China..." (After a recent baseball trip to Tulsa.)
"Everybody is not keeping the counter clean. I clean it and everyone else doesn't." (Referring to his recent obsession with having everything in place in the bathroom and in his room. My reply? Welcome to my world!)
"I'm not sick, I just have a stomachache!"
"...and God, I like the Devil, I just don't like what he does." (Bedtime prayer)
Some time ago, we were in the car, and I was zoning out a bit as Judson was telling me his very lengthy version of the Israelites crossing the Red Sea on their way out Egypt. I perked up when I heard this line, though: "...and then God took a paper towel and dried up all the water -- a GREAT BIG paper towel!"

A Fuzzy Funny

Fuzzy: "Mom, when was I born?"

Mom: "October 5th, 2002."

Fuzzy: "October 5th?!!! That's my birthday!!!"

Jane, stop this crazy thing!

How do we get from this....

to this...?
