You know it's cabin fever when...
- you won't let the kids have a brownie for breakfast, but cin. toast crunch is okay?
- your daughter's usual speedy morning 'pick out clothes' routine goes something like this...
- um..no those unbuckle when I play with Sam
- um..no those make swishy sound when I play hide and seek and he always finds me
- um..no those are too hot
- those are too cold
- I like pink, but those are not my favorite color pink...
- your son convinces you that you are a bad mom because you threw out the broken tool bench so you fabricate an alternate one using a cardboard box and some tape. you stupidly let him watch you while you stab the box with a scissors to make nail holes.
- while you are in the first shower you have had in 3 days giving yourself a mini facial your son asks you every two minutes...mom, what's this thing for? mom is this the drill? mom is this the saw? (so much for washing your face)...mom, I am going to make more holes in the box, I don't have enough... (so much for the shower) What,? NO! wait for mommy...
- your life motto changes every 10 minutes between No Diet Today, and Calgon Take Me Away...
- your daughter asks if the interstate is open so daddy can come home yet.
- your daughter decides to pray for everyone to get better so the hospital can close like school.
- your daughter wants to finish the art project you started with her last night; while you are in the shower for the first time in three days.
- you hop out of the shower and open the closet and the cat jumps out at you... he somehow got locked in?
- your only contact with the outside world is email and blogging - wait that's normal!

I had to laugh at that first one especially, but all of them are so very very true! I found you while partying at 5minutes. I enjoyed your posts, and I think I just might be back. :) Stop by if you get a chance, k?
That made me smile. Just dropping by on the party circuit to say Hi from England.
