If, in the interest of both getting your son to work on time and combining trips to town to save gas, you find yourself in the middle of Wal-Mart wearing no make-up and with your hair pulled back in a ponytail – a style which neatly groups together all your gray hairs into obvious STREAKS of gray….. rest assured you will encounter at least three people you know.
2. If this occurs mid-morning on a weekday, and if you take care to let your children wear whatever favorite rag they pulled out of the drawer that morning, AND if you just-this-once-cause-we’re-in-a-hurry trust them to brush their own hair, and then promptly forget to follow-up on that ….. rest assured you will be asked why your kids are not in school.
3. If you want to commit family-time suicide, agree to play a game that both kids insist they know the rules to, but that you personally, have never played in your life. Croquet, perhaps.
4. Sugared pecans are evil.

I bet there is never a dull moment at your house!
I often get the inquiries as to why my children are out of school in the middle of the day.

That is Murphy's Law! The last time I went to the store looking terrible was a few years ago, and SURE ENOUGH, there was a guy there I hadn't seen in ten years.
