• I win the world's WORST mom award

  Now before I can let you read further of this blog, you have to swear--and I do mean swear----pinky swear, swear on a grave, a bible--I don't care, but you have to swear never, ever, ever, ever tell my daughter about this.  I mean never ever.....NEVER EVER....... If you are unable to swear then please leave the blog...for those of you who can...read on.....
  
  My dad came and picked up the children today.  Yeah for me--quiet!  In the process of getting ready my children have been doing laundry.  Which means they took out my perfectly clean clothes from the dryer BEFORE they were dried and put in their own.  This also means, when they left--they did not put my clothes in the dryer.  So when Dad and the children left---I put the few damp clothes into the dryer to be dried. 
  
  As the dryer started I heard a thump thump.  I figured Jacob was drying a pair of shoes.  I mean, we do live in the country and shoes get wet all the time out here---especially if you are Jacob and have been playing in or around something you shouldn't have.  Figuring the thump thump was shoes, I left to adjourn myself to Freddie's computer so I could rip music to my mp3 player.  A good way to pass the time.
  
  While the music is ripping I took a shower.  After my shower and after determining I did not want to wear what I had picked out orginally I decided to get my good panties out of the dryer.   Mind you I said my GOOD panties.  These are the nice ones that I paid actual decent $$ for ONE pair of......  These match my bra and are girly and lacey.  So as I OPEN the dryer door, still attached mind you, flops the cat's tail.
  
  If you aren't getting it----the cat, MY DAUGHTERS cat was in the dryer.  The thump thump sound I heard was NOT a pair of shoes, but my daughter's cat "and bits"  (that's the cat's name And Bits---her brother is Kibbles and we have another called Iams)
  
  I KILLED MY DAUGHTERS CAT  
  
  I don't often succomb to hysteria, but for a moment I did.  So I called Becky, who being the friend she truly is, started saying "it's okay" between the giggles.  Mind you Becky is not a cat person and for most NONcat people there is sick and derranged humor in the fact I dried the cat.  For those who are animal people, and cat people---well go ahead and throw tomatoes.....I didn't mean to kill the cat, honest.  She is NEVER in the dryer.  She is in the sink on occasion but never the dryer!
  
  She is still in the dryer waiting for Freddie's return.  Freddie will have to take care of this.  As for my GOOD panties--they are going in the trash along with a pair of good pants etc.....  *sigh*
  
  I think I am off to finish ripping music and to find some asprin.
