We’ll Return To Your Regularly Scheduled Programming After This Test…
I can’t seem to get my brain in working order today. It’s as though I’m running on auto-pilot. Perfect example: I took the kids with me to the grocery store. Whenever I go anywhere with all four kids, I get hit with a barrage of comments. I get a lot of non-plussed, Four Kids, Wow’s, a few ecstatic You Are So Blessed’s, and a smattering of angrily muttered Overpopulating the Planet’s every time. Today was no different, except for my reaction. My normal response is either a brief smile, a cheerful thank you, or a return glare, depending on the comment. Today’s response?
"I have a lot of kids."
Picture me saying that to 10 or 15 people in a voice reflecting about as much emotion as Spock could muster.
I ended up leaving the store mentally smacking myself on the forehead and trying to figure out just what is the matter with me!
Dear, dear, dear, how many TIMES do I have to tell you? DRINK (heavily) before you go shopping.

That can get quite annoying, all those comments on what should be your own business.
By the way, I just read your ” How to get dressed like a 4yo…” Hilarious! I go through the same thing with my 4yo son. Glad to know I am not alone.
