Tooth Fairy Revealed...


   Today a fellow blogger has been dealing with one of her lil' turd makers first lost tooth and needless to say is a bit freaked out. It made me think back to my own short stuff's first tooth loss. What I remember was all the very distinct questions that arose from the introduction in her life of the magical Toothfairy. Oh sure she was very happy to receive her handful of change the next morning (mommy forgot to go to the bank for a dollar since with inflation that seems to be the going rate for a tooth.), but soon the questions followed that me and my future ex-husband tried our best to answer.
   "Why does the tooth fairy need all my yucky teeth?" little stuff inquired. I was quick to respond with "They are like money in Toothfairy Land!"
    Still suspiciously looking at the change from the bottom of my purse she followed up with "Then were do they get all their people money from?"
    My future ex thought about it for a second and replied"They poop it out. Money is nothing but poop in Toothfairy Land!"
   So tonight I leave you with the image of a cute fairy that sneaks into your children's bedrooms at night to collect the teeth to buy food so they can poop out money under your kid's pillows. For more tooth related post go visit my fav mommy blog http://holdinholden.blogspot.com/

Exercise might kill me!

I look at people who exercise regularly like other people look at heroin addicts. Most people don't want to get addicted to heroin and give up their time and money to feed a habit. The gleam in the eye of an addict who is jonesing for a fix can be scary. The way junkies go around trying to tell everyone it's not as bad as it looks... everything can be related to exercise. Half the time I want to work out I should not begin my day on facebook because I get exhausted just reading the posts from everyone else who managed to work out before I even woke up. Exercise cost money! There are special outfits to wear, supplies to buy and classes to sign up for! I could end up looking great but be broke. People get ridiculous about being fit and I fear soon I will be aching to work out instead of sitting around watching prime time tv.
Exercising can even have the side effect of eating well! What will happen to my poor child if I stop buying pounds of ice cream and cookies cause I want to be healthy... she will surely rebel when she grows up and feast on all manners of junk food after being deprived while young...
Honestly writing this post has exhausted me... I need to let my fingers rest now... For my own sake I will have to seriously consider if exercise will better my life till then I still have half a box of mint ice cream sandwiches in the freezer.....
