day 6 - something you hope you never have to do

The first thing that comes to mind is this:

Hiking up a steep rocky area, in mid August, in Arizona, on day one of my period with only a pad (no tampon), without my sweating medicine, with a toddler. And a huge moth attacks me. Horrible.

But really, I hope I never have to be a single mom. I don't know if I could do it.

sheriece & Mckade said...: Amen about the single mom thing too. I really think I would have a complete breakdown.; August 20, 2011 at 12:23 AM
Maxdaddy2010 said...: Just so everyone knows she did this very thing, almost. We went to Lake Powell in August and she hiked in 100+ degrees to defiant house, on her period minus the pad ( I'm not sure but I don't think pads and swimsuits and in and out of the water, is a good thing).

Pet Peeves

--Truck nuts.
--When the 'poo water' splashes up and hits you in the butt.
--When you ask someone a question and they respond "Yes and No," ...
--Padded toilet seats.
--When you ask someone the date and they say "Yep, all day long!" Funny, smart ass.
--The phrase "fat & sassy"
--Anyone touching my nipple, especially, but not limited to, while I'm pregnant
--Spelling 'Jeff' "Geoff". Seriously. Seriously?
--Walking through someone else's fart.
--Porta-Potty's - but NO, not what you think. The nasty air that softly blows on your butt while you are sitting, that, I can't handle.
--Spelling Nicole "NicHOLE" Hole. HOLE. ?
--When guys have their hand in their pocket (especially sweats or basketball shorts) and are 'itching' or 'adjusting' or whatever they do and think for sure no one can see them. Come ON!!
--The 'auto' window feature in my car only working if you are rolling down.
--Public bathroom stalls with the door that opens IN. Not good when you are a biggie!
--The gas pump asking you, #1 to remove your card quickly, no matter how fast you do it, and #2 asking if you want a freaking car wash.
--That A-hole that when traffic is merging, speeds all the way to the front of the line and expects to 'get over' in front of everyone. No, you will not, my friend. I will total my car before that happens.
--People flicking my ponytail/bun.
--Bicyclers who act like a car and "blinker" with thier arm and drive in a car lane.
--The smell of ketchup.
--When singers, particularly guys, point to the sky while 'hitting' the 'high' note.
