Since I gave up the single life and settled down to become a hip suburban mama, I have found more then a few annoying questions for which I have no answer.
Is there no answer…or am I just that blond?!
Where DOES the other sock go?
Why DO men think it’s OK to fart in the marital bed?
At what point do us young, vital women, start making that odd grunting groaning noise as we drag our behinds off the floor?
How is it that in a house with four people, two of which are adults, the wife seems to be the only one who has mastered the art of changing the roll on the toilet paper roll?
Why is it that men get better looking with age, and women just get old?
When did Kraft dinner with a side of wiener and an apple become a well balanced meal?
What did I do before kids?
When did the definition of an amazing evening change? I’d gladly pass up a night out at a bar in exchange for a quiet evening at home with Hubby, a bowl of popcorn and a rented flick.
At what point did I stop just grabbing clothes off the shelf in the store that were “my size” and taking them to the cashier? Now everything must be tried on.
When did finding a bikini that actually fits, or a pair of jeans that look fab become a true victory?
When did I start to get excited about a sale at the grocery store?
How did a quality carpool become something to envy?
What happened to my boobs?
Help!
Oh I recognise a lot of those. Although strangely my experience of buying clothes seems to be the other way round. I don’t have time to go to shops and try on stuff (or if I do, daughter runs off when I’m down to my underwear) so I just throw something my size into my trolly at Tesco and hope it fits. The only label I wear at the moment is ‘Florence and Fred’!
Your boobs have gone to where all mommy’s boobs have gone before, and back!
LOL…nobody changes the paper towel roll at my house, and nobody takes the trash out til’ I scream about it! And shutting the front door, what is up with that?? My kids don’t know how!
I know what happened to my boobs, KIDS! The day I can afford a boob job I am SO getting one! Thanks for coming by and remembering me!
It may not be a technical error on your end. I changed somethings around to enable the subscribe by email function. I dont think that I have added back the RSS yet. I am kind of going through a mini redesign at them moment.
See, now I’m rambling 🙂
go braless – it pulls the wrinkles out!
And if he only does it in bed you’re very lucky!
LOL.
I’m so glad I found your blog, you make me laugh. And I desperately need to laugh as often as possible.
I live with 3 boys: my husband, my almost 12 year old son and my 8 year old son. Imagine living with these guys. Do you pity me? You should…They don’t know what a hamper is, definitely don’t know about replacing toilet paper or putting their trash INSIDE the trash can, everything and I mean everything ends up on the floor, the counters or the kitchen table. And I can go on and on and on. And mind you, I explain how to and what to do with these things daily, but to no avail. But I still love them, although I may endup at the looney bin.
What?!! You can still wear a bikini? Oh, you lucky girl. Don’t want to hear any complaining from you!
great questions
my sad question is why do I have to dye my hair every 6 weeks because of gray hairs when I used to just dye it to change the colour????
and seriously what is up with the toilet paper roll????It’s not rocket science.
When you find those answers, let me know, I will have a unicorn delivered to your door. 🙂
I ask myself some of the same questions every day…. lol. Great post!
Love this post! I also am the only one who knows how to change a toilet paper roll in our house. And sadly, I too would pass up a night out to stay in and relax if I could. I haven’t watched a movie in forever!
Wait………you serve apples with your mac n cheese??
Man my kids are deprived!!!
And the boobs are still there…just look farther down!!!
Oh and you forgot to ask the really good question………..
What’s all the popping and creaking noises during sex???
Wait….
What??
It’s just me and my knees? (sigh)
hehe! i love this list… a lot!
Lovely post as always! Again made me laugh so loud I made Lola jump!
Take care!
