Alabama Snow

For someone who has grown up in Utah and has waded there way through waste high snow and even did her driving test in a snow storm Alabama snow was not so scary. However the Alabama drivers are another matter. When it starts snowing everyone rushes out to by bread, beer, and batteries. People refuse to drive because of less then an inch of snow. It has got to be one of the funniest things to witness.

Silly me.

I was asked the other day to baby sit. Sure why not I can do this.... silly me. For some odd reason it never accrued to me that I would have to change a diaper... but when the mother started talking to me about where to find the extra diapers and such it struck me how silly that is of course you are going to have to change a one year olds diapers.. the child cant even talk yet... silly me. I did not know any lullabies and so when told that before he takes his naps to sing him a song and that it is when it hits me that i don't know any lullabies. The same two lines of Disney songs were repeated over and over again and then there was 'If i had a Million Dollars' by Bare Naked Ladies was converted to a softer voice and made into a lullabies.... silly me. Long walks were taken so as to divert the attention of the child. Also food became something that we could both relate to.... we both like it. The mother came home and we were both alive.
