The Schmidt House rules according to JG

This morning JG snuggled in bed with me and listed off the rules of our household as he understands them:
  1. No throwing pillows
  2. No throwing pillows at lamps
  3. No throwing pillows at glass mostly water glasses
  4. No hitting your friends or sisters with hockey sticks, bats, dowels, kitchen things (utensils) or pillows
  5. You must keep your clothes on at all times unless you are in the shower because no one wants to see your underware - that would be way barassing (embarassing)
  6. Do not pour Tang in the refrigerator
  7. Frush (flush) the toy-it (toliet)
  8. No frushing toys or toothbrushes in the toy-it
  9. Tell mommy when I go outside in front, but I not go when mommy is in the shower cause she gets mad and she is wet
  10. Do not give the dog a bath with the hose and hand soap
  11. No drinking beard (beer) cause you can get sick

I honestly do not know where Rule #11 came from. I asked JG who told him that and he said he just found it out in his head. Let's hope that little voice in his head speaks to little man REALLY, REALLY loud when he is in college.

Whoa. Lots of pillow issues at your house! At mine, you could replace "pillow" in each line with "Molly's tennis ball." As in: No bouncing Molly's tennis ball in the kitchen when we have guests over and Mom has just put pizza sauce on two homemade pizza crusts, because there is NO WAY to salvage them once the dog-slobber ball has bounced its way through BOTH, with the dinner guests looking on in horror.

And as far as college goes: no comment. :-)

This past week or so has been a blur - We went to Iowa for a tournament - girls did fine - think that they got 3rd overall. Will meet up with the teams again when we go to Kansas in March. Got home from Des Moines @ 6pm Sunday, was at the airport by 8am Monday. Off to Kansas City for a training class, actually am really excited to be selected for this, it is "High Performing Managers" and there are only 15 people per class. I about choked the first day when they said that the company is making an investment in us - $15K each. I think that is more than I spent on my entire college education - wow. Got home Thursday @ 10:30pm went to work Friday, and then had a busy weekend. By Monday thought I was seriously having an aneurysm - ALL last week felt like someone was trying to put a stake through the back of my head and really couldn't focus at all. Think that the plane ride back to MN did me in. So went to Dr. who scheduled a MRI for yesterday a.m. Really kinda scared me to t...

Pleased as punch

We got our new vacuum cleaner last night. The home office was kind enough to pick one up along with our PF Chang's takeout. Take out Chinese on Valentine's is a tradition. Anyhoo, as you can see from the photo we basically sucked up an entire Pomeranian in our upstairs family room. I don't know if I should be embarrassed or pleased. I mean we just vacuumed on Monday with the Hoover and I knew it wasn't picking up everything, but this is ridiculous. The home office was so impressed with the Animal he went downstairs and vacuumed up another canine in the family room down there. I am still trying to figure out all of the gadgets on the machine. I seriously cannot figure out how to attach the stair cleaner. It is really funky how the thing is put together, efficient, but funky. I also for the life of me cannot figure out the directions. I dislike how all European companies, Dyson (UK), IKEA (Sweden) just show you pictures. I always thought I was a visual person, but I am b...

I am usually an open book...

however have made the decision to have The Schmidt House be invite only, you are the ones that I want to share our lives with - if there is someone that I have omitted by mistake, please let me know. Think that there are some family members that I do not have email addresses for, so will need to track those down. I have found that I have been a little blog "stuck" for the last few months knowing that there were a lot of people who read my site and I became a little self conscious about what I was writing as to not offend anyone - not like I go out of my way to offend, but after awhile you realize that there are some pretty sensitive folks out there. I know it takes all kinds for the world to go around, however I don't want to have to worry about it when I am here. So now I feel a little more free to speak my mind which you all know has never been a problem, but now I feel I am among friends. Thanks for sharing this little adventure with the Schmidts...
