Coie's Cow Trouble
Posted on 2006-Jul-1 at 09:16 - Post Comment
You know you're in Tennessee when your daughter has trouble getting home because a cow is stuck in the road. Coie spent the day down the street at her auntie's
house helping to hang curtains. She got home late (I was already in
bed, reading a book) and she came in to tell me about her day. Her cow
story was quite funny. It sounded like a cowspiracy (groan). This
bovine was determined to keep it's place in the road. You don't see
things like that in California.
I like my daughter, but
sometimes she makes me mad. After her cute cow story we got into an
argument about what state sits on top of Illinois. I told her it was
Minnesota, and she insisted it was Wisconsin. I was so indignant,
because I *knew* this one-- so I demanded that she fetch the laminated
placemat map in the dining room. Sure enough, Wisconsin sits on top of
Illinois. The little brat. I hate it when she's right. She just
laughed and said, "ha ha. I was homeschooled and you weren't".
Have a super weekend! Gramma Sally will be here later today from
Michigan (which sits on top of Ohio), so I am off to clean my house--
scratch that-- I am off to tell all my kids to clean the house. There are no child labor laws in The House of Igarashi.
Hahahah!

\"There are no child labor laws ....\" Priceless. You sound like me and I can\'t wait to use that line the next time one of my own heavy sighs and slumps off to do a chore I have asked be done! This is too funny!
