I woke up this morning with cramps (ugh) so I went straight for the medicine cabinet to grab some ibuprofen. As I walked in the bathroom, opened the cabinet and grabbed the drugs, I heard this from the hallway (in a snide, 9 year old’s voice):
“Taking your tranquilizers today?”
Oy, she sure knows how to yank my chain. I was quite cranky when I woke up but her remark was so damn hysterical that I cannot stop laughing every time I think about it.
Ah-haa-haa!!! Out of the mouths of babes, right?
i once overheard my 14 year-old say to my eight year-old:
“Don’t mess with Mama today. She’s totally PMS-ing.”
My 8 year-old replied:
“Thanks for the warning.”
Of course, that made me upset still…
She was absolutely right. π¦
Hi c,
They say the darndest things, those girls, don’t they? Honestly, it was so funny to me that I still can’t stop laughing about it. Just priceless…the smirk on her face, saying it ever so calmly. She’s got her act down pat.
The best reply would have been to look her dead in the eyes and say “you’d better hope not, we ran out of those last week…”
Ha. I was actually thinking something more along the lines of, “No, actually…they’re for YOU”. Ooooo…that was gruff, wasn’t it? I’m an evil, wicked mommy! Mwahahahahahah, But you still love me, right?!
::high fives your daughter::
You want another one?????? Cause these is another on of her right here. π π
Oh, I’ll take you, dear! You two would get along famously!
one not on
She is so funny! I am on the same schedule as you! I finally snapped today “GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY AND DON’T COME BACK FOR AWHILE!!” They ran quickly!
Oh, she’s a piece of work, alright. Funny, it didn’t tick me off…it was just so funny, the way she said it so matter-of-factly, that I still can’t stop chuckling about it.
We’re on the same schedule? Do you know what that means?…our girls will probably ALL be on the same schedule as well. EEEEkkkk!
LOL. Oh, 2LD – I wonder where she gets that from? π I hope you’re feeling better soon and that you don’t get hooked on your “tranquilizers.” LOL.
Hi Teeni!
Hmmm…I wonder where she gets it from? I’m going to blame it on her aunt!
I am feeling better now, thanks! And I didn’t even get hooked on those ‘tranquilizers’! Hmphhh. Must not be very good ones. π
If you weren’t hooked, they were no good fo sho! I love to hear about your daughters commentary! She gets her quick wit from YOU! YOU GIRL! Hope you feel better soon π
No good fo sho! Haha. She’s a sassy one…and I know she gets it from me. I just don’t like to admit it! Thanks JQ…I feel much better!
That’s cute!
I remember when I was a preteen and my mom was being bitchy I used to ask her if she forgot to take her hormone pills? She didn’t like that very much. π
Thanks, Girly.
She’s a smartypants. I never know what will come out of her mouth!
HAHA!! What sass. I love it!
She’s at the top of her class in sass! Ha. Thanks!
Oh my God that is funny! I am sorry you girls have to go through with that. Would it make you feel better if I hit my thumb with a hammer for a few days in a row?
Thanks, Billy. Yeah, could you go ahead and hit your thumb with a hammer for, say, 4 days in a row. Great. Thanks.
Your daughter cracks me up. What’s she going to be like at 16? It sounds to me like she’s gonna be just like her mama with that wit of hers.
That is what I would like to know. If she’s acting like this at 10…what will I be up against in another 6 years? Yikes!
I have tagged you for a meme here:

I hope you can participate! No pressure, though. π
Oooo…thanks, Teeni! I’ll get on it right away…but may not post it until the weekend ’cause I’m working on my next Feisty Friday as we speak. Heehee.
They used to run these commercials for a mental health center called Charter. When I’d get grumpy, my kids would run around the house yelling, “1-800-CHARTER, Mom! 1-800-CHARTER!” Then I’d chase them around, tackle them, and beat them senseless. Ahhhhh…good times, good times.
Good times, indeed. She’s getting close to being beaten senseless but she makes me laugh so damn much that I forget that I’m supposed to beat her!
So did you give her a tranquilizer.
Hell no! Momma got the tranquilizer, and a beer, and another beer and another beer. Ahhh…all better now!
I so want to meet her LOL!
I’ve told her about you and she wants to meet you too!
I like to tell people my best friend is Pam. It’s actually Talea. But any medication that ends in ‘pam’ is sure to be fun times. As my dad always says “I’ll take a prozac and a beer”.
Hi, Pam. Nice to meet you. You’re my new best friend. Ha.
Beer (or wine) + anything = good times.
Gotta any extra you can send my way? Your daughter is hilarious, must be fun all the time! π
Sorry, DDTD, I’m fresh out! π
She’s a handful and fun most of the time…when she isn’t so snarky that I have to punish her.
aaaaahahahah! awesome.
the child calls mine chill pills.
Hahaha. Chill pills. Nice.
