get a headache, do what it says on the aspirin bottle:
"Take two aspirin" and "Keep away from children."

a few days ago I started a thread at DST about roasts because I've always had issues......
I've found out that I never gave them enough time to cook......

now.... time to share my funny bad day from yesterday with you.....
my dh decided to work from home yesterday because he had a headache.... ok, fine...no biggie, right?????? HA!!!!!! Guess what I forgot?????? It was his birthday!!!!!! oooooops! It finally dawned on me when I left to pick up Hudson from preschool. uh-ho! he called me shortly after I picked up Hudson and asked if I knew what today was, I told him happy birthday then & told him he spoiled the big surprise I was going to do later (something I still needed to figure out..which I ended up not doing)...........I dropped Hudson and Griffin off at my MIL's to spend the night. She had asked a few days ago if they could since her dh was going to be out of town. She told me yesterday that she offered so that we could also go out to eat.......for his birthday dinner! ....... HELLO! I told her she should have clued me in to that earlier since I totally forgot about it. Griffin turned 2 five days earlier, so that is the only birthday I was only thinking about. We ended up staying home and enjoyed colossal king crab legs and baked potatoes.....and then he pouted and went to sleep early. MEN! Instead of 41, he acted like he was 4. It was kind of funny.
but....besides that.............. I received a phone call when I was at the grocery store in the early evening from ADT Security.... my friend's burglar alarm went off & I'm the contact for it.....talk about a mini panic......her house/dog sitter accidently set off the alarm ...... OOPS!
then...... at home..... I was rearranging some beer bottles in the fridge (making room for some groceries) and I dropped one..SPLAT! ...it's a good thing we have tile in there
