A Top Ten sounds good!

With the happy butterflies in my stomach as I type this post, you would think that I just got asked to the prom.  I'm so excited to be here again!  The sun is shining through the trees as I type.  Those mini brownie bites are happily in my tummy, and I'm enjoying the peace and tranquility before the kids come barging through the door.  I can't believe how fast these past two months flew by.  It was a wonderful summer vacation full of laughs between the inevitable kid dramatic moments.  All in all, I feel rejuvenated and pumped for my re-entry into one of my favorite sanity-saving activities, blogging.

So where do I start? I'm busting with ideas and sarcasm.  See? Nothing has changed :)

What about a Top Ten list?  It works for Dave Letterman all these years. I'm sure he won't mind if this crazy suburban housewife borrows the idea for my return blog post.  So here goes:

TOP TEN THINGS SAID IN CRAMPED HONDA DURING 40 HOURS
OF DRIVING TO AND FROM FLORIDA

1. The DVD is not working. (I had to do some yoga moves to fix that problem over and over again.)
   
2. Can I pee in a water bottle? (traveling with boys)
   
3. These southern states are LONG! (We were at our breaking point often in the Carolinas.)
   
4. Mom, please not another car game! (I needed to keep the kids from driving daddy the driver crazy.)
   
5. Why are my cookies at the bottom of that bag? (Guess who said that?  Me, of course.)
   
6. Now I know what a sardine in a can feels like. (If I had two inches of leg room at times, I was lucky.)
   
7. Are you kidding me that we have THAT many miles until a rest stop? (leg and butt cramps: no fun)
   
8. Please Jillian don't put in another Barbie movie. (The boys started to know the songs by heart.)
   
9. Why didn't we fly? (My answer: money; Jillian's answer: too scary)
   
10. We can't wait to see the Disney World sign! (We fell out of the Honda and practically kissed that Disney parking lot!)

 I'll post some pictures of the trip soon!
