And then there's the hearing problem.....
Okay here's what happened at Robbie's 8th grade graduation 5 years ago. We were sitting in the bleachers (in the hot, hot sun) waiting for his name to be called. Some idiot woman in front of me had a huge balloon bouquet and it kept getting in front of my face. I asked her three times to keep it lowered and finally she went off the bleachers onto the field (still in front of me) with the balloons still waving around blocking my view. Finally I had had enough and leaned over the railing and told her if she didn't keep those IUW$R#)JG)_ balloons down that I was going to pop every one of them!!! Would you believe that while I'm yelling at her they called Robbie's name and I missed it completely.
Now what are the chances that the same exact thing would happen at Maggie graduation? What - one in a million! Well I should be so lucky with the lottery because DANG! it happend again. When I took off after the woman to ask her to lower the ballons, Cat says, "Mom, where are you going?" as I turned around to tell her she is just shaking her head and says, "Too late, they just called her name" I'm thinking that when I'm on the warpath my hearing goes on the fritz because once again I COMLETELY MISSED IT!!! I promised my daughter that I would do better with my great grandkids. Giggles : )
Wishing you Joy and Laughter Everyday!
