Heres another vintage Buzz tale... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I thought the Martians had landed last night when a 'little green man' rushed at me, talons extended, roaring fiercely.........Oh...It's just Buzzard Bait...AND HE'S PAINTED HIMSELF GREEN ! Arrghhhhhhhhhhhh ! DARK green.....Expensive ENAMEL from the craft store green...........Oh look ! The brown carpet is green ............Oh.......just part of it...and the cut glass cake stand...and and and and.......................Aiiiigghheeee ! He had been playing in the dining room , answering that he was being a good boy when we would call him.........We could hear electronic toys humming, talking...Ahhhhh....just what we needed, a little quiet time to ourselves....The pecan pies are in the oven, black eyed peas , cornbread, and fried potatoes taking care of themselves with the help of the timer....Things don't get much better than that around Buzz..... Hubby's hands no longer sting from the industrial strength cleaner he had to use earlier when Buzz wrote all over our pretty toilet seat...I finished cooking the 'feast ' while Papa slathered a cheerful but respectful Buzz with 'Goop ' hand cleaner { After removing his poopy diaper...also painted.....which was adding insult to injury....} then he put him into a nice hot bath....Which is like throwing Brer Rabbit into a briar patch..... Epilogue: The holes in the toilet seat disappeared..possibly because of cleaner rearranging the plastic ? Most of the green paint came off Buzz AND the carpet, and and and cleaned up pretty well, thanks to Papa's rapidly depleting store of elbow grease.....I think he did all the cleanup because I showed some little hints of murder and mayhem, and he cleverly picked up on that..... Today has been fairly quiet....Maybe I just THINK it's quiet though , since Buzz ran full tilt into the side of my chin as I was turning 'toons' off while 'rassling' him into his clothes so he could go outside.....The kids head is harder than any rock, I swear...After an hour or so my chin hardly hurts at all, and I'm beginning to think I won't have to go to the Chiropractor ..............Maybe..............Jeannie T ____________________________________________________________ $65/Hr Job - 25 Openings Part-Time job ($20-$65/hr).
