May or May Not Monday

May or May-Not Monday: Where you can divulge the secrets of life's mishaps without feeling like a failure. So go on... own up. I may have...

I may or may not have been in Kartchner Caverns and been kissed by the cave. Lore says I will have good luck for a year. Let's see if having a drop of water hit me during the tour brings me great fortune!

We may or may not have come across a border patrol checkpoint and been ready with our I.D. card thinking it would be like a military checkpoint where you have to prove you're not guilty; and just barely coming to a stop, when the officer looked into our car at the two blond littles in the back and said, "You're fine. Have a good evening." My eyes wide with wonderment and the Daddy person just laughed at me.

Siri may or may not have taken us on another wild goose chase, but this time in Tucson, AZ, not some back country roads. Does everyone have this many problems with Siri?

I may or may not have been showing where the spear caught in his shorts came from when I got a wee bit too close to the cactus and been stabbed 9 times in my index finger. The worst is that I took that souvenir home and still have a tiny piece of that weapon in embedded under my index finger nail. I am reminded how often I use that very finger, constantly.

I may or may  not have been able to get the water for the shower to actually turn on. I called in reinforcements and he was able to get the shower working. Turning it off proved to be even more difficult and requring so much force that the shower knob broke and cut the hero's hand. *sad face*

I may or may not think that our family will have a mandatory fun vacation every Thanksgiving week. We may or may not have completely forgotten that the day exists. I suppose it's time to start saving up for airline miles, hotel & rental car rewards for next year. I definitely had a better trip with only having to pay for food, gas and souvenirs.

I may or may not be sick and tired of my littlest being called a girl. Get with it folks! One of these days, he is actually going to realize that they are referring to him.

I may or may not have visited my first Super Target. It was pretty super -- bigger aisles definitely enhanced the experience.

I  may or may not be completely frozen being overwhelmed by the utter mess that exists in my home. I came home and exclaimed,"Did I really leave my house like this!? Can you imagine if something happened to us and someone found our house in this state!?" Library books all over the living room floor (we're talking 50). A cabinet open with a puzzle and it's pieces falling out of it.  Kid's magnets scattered on the kitchen floor. A coloring station that covers my entire dining room table that has been up for over two weeks. 15 piles of laundry folded on my bedroom floor. All beds left unmade. The kid's room covered with toys on the floor. The playroom is cleaner than their room which never happens. Dirty clothes left in the boy's bathroom. Add to that all the unpacking from our wonderful trip to Arizona.
