My Crazy Life

After numerous suggestions about starting a blog or writing a book about the daily adventures that occur in my household, I have decided to take the plunge.  With Curran's crazy antics, Alexandra's quick comebacks, and my never ending struggle with arthritis, there is never a dull moment in my crazy life. 

This morning is a prime example.  Shortly after crawling into the shower this morning I hear the death screech, you know the one that sounds like two tom cats fighting it out for territorial rights.  I dash out of the shower, dripping water all over the floor and discover Curran chasing Alexandra with a table knife.  "Why?" you ask.  Well I presented that same question to my son.  His reply was, "It was only a joke."  After a lengthy time out and a discussion on the potential consequences of chasing someone with a knife, I was still no farther ahead in determining what in fact provoked the knife incident.  The wronged child in all of this is remaining suspiciously quiet on the subject; probably to avoid punishment herself.  

I did get to finish my shower, only a half hour later; the floor got partially mopped; and my son now knows not to chase someone with a knife.  My life can be a little crazy, but at least it's not dull.
