What I Meant to Say

Today is Wednesday, which means Chief is doing her "What I Meant to Say" Meme.





Let's see if I can come up with any...hmmmm...


To my children, when I say: "HURRY UP!!!"

I don't mean: "Sit there and move as slowly as possible, stare off into space or watch some more tv! Please I love it so much!"

I mean:"MOVE YOUR BUTTS BEFORE I GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO YOU TO PULL YOUR HAIR!"

(Aren't my kids lucky?)



When I said: "I'll think about it and let you know."

I didn't mean: "Please, please please keep hastling me about it and insisting until I give in. Its what I want oh so bad!"

I meant: "Get the crap away from me, I don't want to do that. And the more you ask and insist, the more I want to hurt you."



These paint me in such a great light don't they...I bet you guys are glad you only have to deal with me on here instead of real life huh? I'm actually really nice, I swear!

  1. I'm with you on the dawdling thing. Why are kids so good at that?

  2. Don't you wish you could REALLY say what's on your mind instead of being NICE. I would be in soooooo much trouble, even more than I am now. (I speak my mind way too often and it has bitten me in the rear end a few times).
    Love your posts and look forward to them.

  3. Hey, if you can't say it on a blog, where can you? I think most of us have had that kind of reaction to things.

  6. OMG, I love the first one. I tell my 5 year old to hurry all the time and I think he either doesn't understand the word or is deaf.

    Stopping by from chief's.

  7. oh, I so get you here. I hate it when I ask my kids to get something for me, especially if it's something I need RIGHT NOW while I'm changing a poopy diaper and they mosey up the stairs to get it.

    DRIVES ME NUTS.

  10. Even without kids, I have those moments where I can't really say what I am thinking. It would be so nice to just be really blunt once in a while!
