Only My Luck

only dumb luck...

So, if your husband leaves you the "broken" car for the day and tells you to ONLY go to dance & come back home (as that's only 3/4 mile away) so that the car doesn't ignite,

be sure to NOT get locked out.

Also,

make sure your boy has underwear on before you leave for dance (& get locked out)

because he also has tumbling & that would be pretty obvious that he's gone commando.

And,

make sure he doesn't pull his pants down & urinate by the car

(notice a trend here?!)

because then the neighbors might have 2 reasons to call DFS.

Also,

when you ask your girl to grab her medicine bag & her dance bag,

be sure that she didn't accidentally grab her LUNCH bag instead of her dance bag

(which looks very similar)

because --

you COULD get locked out

then there would be no way of getting her dance bag

and she'd have no tap shoes or ballets.

and your husband wouldn't be able to help

because he would be 45 minutes away

with an expected return time of after 10 pm.

Remember,

no driving anywhere else

to kill time since you're locked out

until after 10 pm.

That would be unlucky.

(PS "Grammy saved the day!" Gabe said very clearly as she came to our rescue with a battery to replace Daddy's yucky battery in his garage door opener. Thank God that Grammy was close, taking "Woocy" to the groomer. Thank God Grammy saved the day & changed our luck.)

Very cute post. It's funny I always think when telling stories "It's funny while you tell it but not while you live it." I hope you have a better day and I'm glad Grammy could help!
