1000 plus miles and three days later...
The kids were wonderful. There were some dicey times when I just wanted to pull into the nearest gas station and sob my eyes out because I couldn't stand listening to another knock knock joke, but all in all, it was a good trip. I can't say it was a relaxing one.
Too worn out for a blog entry of any interest or humor tonight, so I leave you with this teaser:
Plastic grocery bags + Nashville rush hour/Thanksgiving travel traffic = one good urinal.

I'm a mom of three peeps ... Queen Bee, The Door Man, and the Chandelier Monkey, and wife to Ace, the Helpful Hardware Man. I created this space to get away from the people known as my inlaws, and because life with three kids and a hubby is all Unexplored Territory.
The nine-year-old who seems to be growing older every minute, has an opinion and a comment for everything, and has a true servant's heart.
The seven-year-old who loves the organization of things, will someday be someone's therapist because of his kind soul, and will more than likely be living with us until he is 40 years old.
The five-year-old with the 13-year-old attitude, who has a dictator's personality, asks you to watch her all the time and say "hold on" to keep your attention, and will someday come home on the back of some dude's motorcycle with 10 tatts and a body piercing or two.
The man of the house, the fixer of things, the winner of prizes, and the only person in his family to escape the South.
I leave you to discuss this
Why I feel the need ....
Did he or didn't he?
I'm at it again

I'm glad you're home safely. (You remind me of the little green port-a-potty, I think it was really an old bowl, that my father carried in the trunk for me when we went on trips in the 1960s. No wonder I hold it now! I'd rather go in a plastic bag than in some public washrooms. Wait, how did I get on this topic...)
NO - you did NOT use a plastic grocery bag!
Eeeeek!
Glad you're back home and safe;)
Rush hour was so strange around here... really bad on Wednesday, then only bad around the malls today (as one might expect). But glad you had a good trip.
Jedimerc ... are you from Nashville? We were actually heading for Franklin, so we had to endure the 65/40 splitoff and then that other one that I can't think of .... maybe the 65 and something else splitoff. I don't know... I just know I was sitting in the van with preschooler on my lap trying to pee... so on to the story.
Nope, I'm from Dallas, but I consider myself a fellow Southerner; however I have been through Nashville a few times and know how horrible their traffic is... so much construction (I usually take the 240 bypass around the south end of the city I think) in that area, but it's been growing so much that it's hard to keep up... just like here in Dallas, once we finish one freeway we need a bigger one to compensate for the growth while the freeway was under construction.
I'm going to go read the story now, but I do have to say that you are so lucky it was a quality shopping bag without holes...because that really would have sucked. It would have been like a really bad water balloon. LOL!
