So What Wednesday

Okey dokey.  I fell off the “So What Wednesday” wagon last week.  So what, right?  My little family and I had to jet out of town because our power went out for five days.  Yes, five.  And it was nearly 100 degrees everyday.  Lovely, right?  Anywhoo, we’re back and I’m sitting here — in the A/C — nursing my wee-est one while my other wee one naps.  (How would that word work anyway?  Wee-est?)

So…here we go.

• So what if I am always — and I mean ALWAYS — covered in baby spit up.  They are worth it, right?  I sure hope so because I walk around smelling like vomit 75% of the time…
• So what if I needed the computer to speak the “please prove you’re not a robot” words while trying to comment on a friend’s blog the other day.  I sat there for what seemed like fifteen minutes trying to figure out all those dang letters.  Is it just me or have those things gotten out of hand?!?!?
• So what if my mailman caught me yesterday morning before I had a chance to put on a bra, brush my teeth or comb my hair.  I’ll redeem myself when we see him this weekend.  (Yes, our mailman parties with us on the weekends.)
• So what if I just lied.  So what if it was really noon-thirty when my mailman caught me in such a dastardly state…
• So what if I like to squeeze Reddi Whip directly into my mouth.  On a daily basis.
• So what if it’s taken me so long to send a friend’s new baby gift that I had to keep the outfit for my newborn and buy a new 3-6 month outfit for her baby.  Yikes…that’s a doozy, isn’t it?!?!?
• So what if I’d rather jam a pen in my eye than cook dinner.  Come 5 o’clock, you’re lucky if I’m still upright.  You have no idea how fortunate I am to have such a chef of a husband.
• So what if the thought of my toddler being able to climb out of his crib gives me more anxiety than being buried alive.  My sanity depends on his napping…
• So what if I spent $100 on Wallflowers from Bath & Body Works.  I really love Eucalyptus Spearmint.  And Beachwood Mango.  And apparently Tiki Beach.  {wink}

Okay, this is too fun.  It seems a little “wrong” to have such a laissez faire attitude toward some of that stuff, but it feels so good writing it that I think I’ll check my OCDness at the door every Wednesday.
