Um, who's shorts are you wearing?

We have hit the point of absolute silliness here on the home front. I'm doing my "pre student teaching" this semester so I have to be in the classroom about 3 hours a week. To do this I'm at the high school for first hour 2-3 days a week (this means leaving my house at 6:15am, more coffee please!). I'm also going to tutor one afternoon a week. This drive to the high school is about 35 minutes without traffic -- an hour plus in the afternoon.

So, hubby was in charge of picking up the kids today and getting everyone changed for the soccer team pictures. He was late, again. (He's working again, just not getting paid -- gotta love small business!). You can only be late a few times before having your family kicked out of the after school daycare program. We've been late twice. It is only the 2nd week of school. Somebody get rid of all this construction! PLEASE! How pathetic are we that we can not be late ever again this year? Hubby said our name was written in THE BOOK. I think this will go down in our permanent record. 10 minutes late last week. 4 minutes late today. I am so ashamed :-)~

So, I race home from the high school tonight and we race off for soccer pictures within moments of my arrival. We get out of the car at the field and hubby looks at Super Girl and asks that magic question: "Who's shorts are you wearing? Are those MINE??"

Oh yeah, my 10 year old daughter was wearing hubby's soccer shorts for pictures. PRICELESS!!! He apparently handed them to her out of the dryer and neither of them noticed the size differential (how could they NOT notice?). I nearly wet myself laughing. (We rolled them at the waist, they still looked pretty silly).

I think this will be the craziest week of the season. I'm adjusting to my 3 classes, my first week at the high school, and also juggling my full time work schedule. The kids had practice the other day and then pictures tonight (on top of school pictures today -- money flew from my pockets today, that was the whooshing sound you heard!). Our street has the first layer of asphalt though -- I actually got to pull in the driveway!

Now that we are TV free, I need a new consequence for the kids (read that as THREAT if you must). It is hard when they are mouthy and I can't take TV away (we are TV free for the duration of the soccer season).

Hopefully we will all be wearing our own clothes tomorrow and going forward!
