0 A Late Morning with Fred.




Lunch:  Pre-Fab Tuna Salad from Aldi, Crackers, and Grapes.

Snack AM:  Carrots, half a hard boiled egg bunny, and hummus.

Snack PM:  More Grapes and half a hard boiled egg bunny.

Yum Lunch?  
We thinks so.
The Tuna container was thrown away.


Today was a wake-up-late day.  Booo. 
I took benedryl last night, and woke with that awesome my-tongue-no-worky, my vision bleary, huh-what-am-I-doing, benedryl-hangover feeling.  

In fact, I was in the middle of who knows what and started muttering, "What am I doing? What am I doing? What am I doing?"

So my husband taught my son and I the Fred Schneider game his improv team uses as a warm up. In your best Love Shack voice, you say "Hey, hey Mommy (or insert name), what whatcha doing?" then the other person replies with a brief description of her or his activity. The goal is to do your best Fred impersonation, and stick to a love shack meter similar to "hop in my Chrysler, it's as big as a whale"

Kiddo picked up the meter and did a great Fred impersonation! We were WhatWatchaDoing all morning long, all the way until drop off.

Of course lunch suffered a little. I reached for pre-packaged tuna salad from Aldi. These cost a dollar, and have a proven Yumfactor, because my son and I ate them all summer.

Despite the jovial Fred-Schneider wackiness, I was still a sluggy stuffing-head.

Fashion also suffered - I had to drop boy off in my ugliest house-hag sweats complete with uncombed bed-head. Boy looked fresh as a daisy, although even he suffered fashion faux pas -- he somehow managed to grab a pair of mommy's socks! which had to be rolled down from his knee. Hopefully the rolled-down socks looked cute in a woodsy-mountain-bootish kinda way, and not pathetic, like a certain depression-era cartoon character's socks.



Oops - Mommy's socks.
