Major Fail

Check List that must be completed EVERYDAY without fail:
1. Brush teeth
2. Style hair in socially accepted fashion
2. Wash hair more than once every 4th day
3. Wear a push-up bra...sports bras are not acceptable attire outside of a gymnasium facility.
4. Make-up is a necessity, not for my self esteem but for those I encounter.


Failure to comply with above stated "check list" invites the Universe to inflict random punishment. Today's punishment was having the Mount Mourne Fire Department witness me in all my home-schooling mom glory. You must know what this means.....stereotypical homeschooling mother:
1. Denim jumper.... Check
2. Unwashed hair... Check
3. Organic whole grains and leafy greens stuck in teeth...check.
4. Unflattering hair, non-existent make-up and husband's t-shirt.....check
5. Looking a solid 15 years older than my chronological age...check


I am tempted to call the fire department once more. This time I will have every detail in place. I need to set the record straight.
