Power Of The Universe

I decided to put a major thought out there: "I want to get one hundred dollars." ... With the thought verbally said to my car and the air around me I smiled, truly hoping my wish was heard...It was heard! While at work my friend came up to me and asked me to run to the bank across the street and break a hundred dollar bill for the cash drawer. I was glad to help, but as I put the $5's and $10's in my pocket I started laughing, because I 'got' a hundred dollars...I just forgot to tell the Universe I wanted to KEEP it!

Nap Time

There are times when I have that beautiful moment when I can fit a nap into a day. It used to be that sometimes I would have trouble getting to sleep, but never again! I discovered The History Channel! Now, don't get all upset! I love the History channel, and I only discovered this secret by wanting to watch a show on something I found interesting. But as I sat there listening, the announcer's calm steady voice put me out. I remember being a bit upset the first few times, but then the light bulb went off and I knew I had discovered the perfect bedtime stories for nap time. Not all the shows work, but the ones that do are saved and ready.

Flick Him In The Forehead

I get annoyed when Paul starts blathering that he thinks he has a fever. I know what he wants, and if I try to ignore him he'll keep it up until I give in and get up and feel his forehead. Almost every time he's never even warm. If I try to just hand him the thermometer he'll say he can't read it on his own so I still have to get off my butt. I've had to stop myself from flicking him in the forehead for bothering me more than once. I really ought to start that. Every time I have to stop what I'm doing to feel his forehead and he's NOT at least moderately warm, I'm going to flick him in the forehead! If I have to pour the Pepto Bismol into the cup for him because he's 'too weak' or too dizzy to stand up and do it himself I'm going to flick him in the forehead! If I have to run to the store because he wants something he knows we don't have I'm tipping myself from his pants pocket...and flicking him in the forehead!
