Previously Ignored Laws of Physics

There must be invisible magnetic fields we create by our focus. Otherwise, the following can not be explained:

After sweeping the crud into a pile on the kitchen floor, I turn to pick up the dustpan. When I return my eyes to the pile, it is smeared across a couple of children, their clothes, feet, and blankets.

My cat and anything I am reading. She sits right on it.

Grape juice and white clothing. Especially 1) favorite clothing or 2) dry clean only.

Children and coxsackievirus infection.

A freshly cleaned room and children/toys

Bisselled (real word. I made it up myself) carpet and a cat's throw up hairball

Grilled meat and the cat. I am really ticked at the cat. Is it obvious?

Any sock left on the floor and the dog. Why is the dog in the house?

The dog and the man. 'Nuff said.

When you turn one magnet around, the opposite affect occurs. They repel one another. Once again, another law of physics ignored:


My second oldest child and her homework.

My oldest son and clean socks

My oldest son and clean underwear

Me and my bed, spandex, and exercise.

What gravitational force have you noticed and with what?

  2. Oh yeah,

    My children's clothes and the floor = attraction

    My children's clothes and the hamper = repulsion

  6. So funny!

    My oldest and her ability to get food in her hair

  7. Combine Laws of Physics and Murphy's Law, and it makes total sense.

  8. How about the unmentioned law of gravity that affects previously perky pre baby curves and results in them hanging somewhere down by ones bellybutton....

  9. Repel-Clean laundry-closets / dressers. They cannot be forced together (unless you slip them in when it is dark and very high humidity).

The Most Dreaded Words

 Everybody knows that Christmas is about keeping the Santa Secret and pleasing your children. Therefore, the most dreaded words are uttered on Christmas Eve. "I changed my mind, I want a [pony, scooter, bike, Red Rider BB gun]" A close second place winner is, "Can I have a New Year's Eve party?" Then, "Me, too?"

Too Sick to be Sick

I am sick.  Really and truly sick.  I even took a sick day and felt no guilt whatsoever that maybe I wasn't sick enough to have a "sick day."  Because I am.  My 5 year old was sick, too so I took him to the doctor.  I refuse to acknowledge that I'm sick because I don't get sick.  So with absolute glee, my little boy climbed up onto the table, stuck out his tongue and conversed with the doctor.  I heard something about cloudy ears and antibiotics and then I just turned it off. It hurts when sound reaches my eardrums. We drove back home, I turned on the television, brought in the dog, and let the babysitting begin.  I crawled back into bed and swam somewhere between consciousness and unconsciousness.  The kids came home from school.  I might have acknowledged them.  I made chicken noodle soup from scratch.  I couldn't even think.  My husband caught me in a sway and asked what he could do.  I grunted some terse instructi...

What We Eat

Check out the good looking crew.  Just to clarify.  I'm the pretty one. There's a little mountain resort in Northern Utah that is invaded every July by this group of people. We are an intimidating bunch. 5 years ago my brother brought his Nepalese bride to the United States.  She lived in a country where she had no expectation to ever drive a car.  She bought her food daily from the market and ate it.  She taught English, although her accent was so strong when she arrived I questioned her grasp of the language.  We tried to be friendly and accepting.  We ended up scaring the daylights out of her. She thought we were crazy.  Her words, not mine. Although I think she tolerated me a little better than the others because I had the brand new fair-haired baby that she continued to steal.  She wanted a blond haired, blue eyed baby and wondered what her chances were now that she married an American. We take turns cooking for the family dinners. ...
