I awoke from a nightmare this morning – my bio-psych teacher had given a test and I thought I had done really well on it but when I got my score it was something like a D. She only showed us our score and refused to show us what we got wrong/the correct answers. I was really mad about this and especially hurt about her unfairness.
Hahahaha, I am too preoccupied with school.
Normally I would not be up at the crack of dawn but I had to get up this morning because I ached terribly and had to blow my nose/clear my throat. UGH, I am catching a cold. I got on facebook to cheer me up. I belong to a few stepmother groups on there and from time to time they ask questions about stepmom/stepfamily experiences. This morning the question is, “What’s the funniest thing your Stepkids have ever done/said?” Really there are too many to mention but here are two things that stick in my memory:
When my stepson was little he used to sit on my lap and ‘drive’ as I pulled into our driveway. Once I moved the seat up or something and he got squished a little. I made sure he was alright and said sorry and he said “Them were my nuts!” LOL
Once we were bike riding in a hilly area (Mackinac Island, my favorite). My stepson would go down a hill really fast and break. He got up ahead of me and went down a hill and around a curve (his dad was with him). As I caught up, he yells out to me “Hey Jackie look at my skidmarks!” I almost fell off my bike laughing and shouted back to him, “I’ve seen enough of those in your dirty laundry!” LOL
So those memories cheered me up immensely. That is a lovely way to have a happy morning.
Another stepmother’s story cracked me up. She said her stepdaughter said she hope her nose is not like her mother’s, all puffy – “it was too big and not pretty”. To top it off the little girl went on to say she hopes her arms turn out like her father’s because the are less hairy! Bwahaha.
