140 or less.

Sometimes, I feel like people relay too much information. Take my children for example, they always always always always tell me when they are going to the bathroom.

Living in this house is like being on Twitter. The people who live here announce every tiny minute detail of their existence, and sometimes that makes me want to hop a plane to the Caribbean and not come back for a month.

If my children we’re on Twitter…..

“@Mommy, I am eating my bread.”

“@Mommy, I am going to the bathroom.”

“@Mommy, I just saw Andrew punch Zion in the face”

“@Zoe, you’re so funny and adorable!”

“No, @Aidan! @Zoe is my sister!”

“@Andrew, waking mom up from a nap! It’s Lunch time!”

“@Zion, waiting on dad to get home from work. That means it’s supper time!”

“@Mommy, It morning time! Where’s my food?!!!!!”

“@EveryoneWhoLivesWithIn5MilesFromMyHouse I need my button”    Note: A button is Zion’s blanket.

“is tired from a long day of making Mommy think she is losing her mind.”

“Heck yes! Go Diego Go!”

“@Zion, Heck no! Don’t Diego Don’t! We’re watching Barbie Island Princess”

“missing my mom. She walked to the mailbox w/o me.”

“poopin’ my pants”

“waiting on mom to change my diaper”

“refusing to use the potty”

“the potty is for chumps”

And the winner is…

I’ve been on twitter for a while now. I have a great many followers but, I feel it may have been a, “hey, you follow me, I follow you” type of thing. Plus, I have been following like 700 people, which it is impossible to keep up with 700 people on twitter. I’ve tried, but my children are starving because I can’t stop reading all these tweets. I mean, you have to tweet everything on twitter. Everything.

So, I made a new account so I can actually keep up with the folks I know on twitter and keep up with the tweets from the people I have tried to maintain an online relationship with. I’ve gone from 689 followers to like 9. But it feels honest. If you’re on twitter, and you’d REALLY like to follow me, because you want to know when I’m looking for my deoderant, you can, @ABossyBlog.

Anywho, my in-laws are coming this week. I am suppose to help a friend clean her house, and I have no idea where the free time to do that is going to come from. Maybe it will come from not reading 700 tweeters’ tweets. Also, I flipped a coin to see if I should focus more on blogging or sewing in 2009, sewing won. Don’t worry, I didn’t listen to the coin.

This morning, after all this talk of never getting married, Aidan told us she was going to marry one of her brothers. Ben said, “You can’t, it’s against the law to marry your siblings and cousins”

“But those are the only people I know!”

Thing is, we live in Alabama and I am just not sure Ben was right about that. I’m kidding! Hopefully.

AND, I have also decided to give the funniest blog award to Super Ninja Mommy at Two Under Two.  She got the most nominees. Plus, she made me giggle. So, go visit her, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. I know her blog will prosper, because of this amazing, coveted, blog award. I’m gonna make a little award graphic thingy, and send it to her! Other blogs that were nominated, and you should also read are, Foolery , Cupcakes For Dinner, Betty nominated her hubby’s blog, http://thejoereview.com/category/humor/, and I am telling you to read my sister-in-laws blog, The Life and Times of Laura. Oh, Oh, Oh! and My sister-in-laws sister, Beth has a blog, Please Mom, Don’t sing.  All good stuff, people. All good stuff.

Well, I have some very important tweeting to do. I also need to eat, and I still can’t find my deoderant, and that aint good. I don’t usually say, “aint” but it felt appropriate.

Later taters!
