Mark Says I'm Not Allowed To Homeschool Anymore......

.....because it is apparently making making me stooopid. Last week, I walked into a men's room by mistake. How embarrassing!! What makes it even worse is there was a man in there!!! His back was to me. I'm not sure is he was at a urinal or a sink. Aaahh! That was Thursday.

On Friday we had to go to Birmingham. Mmmmm, Krispy Kreme is in Birmingham. On the same street we took to go home. So we stopped. Samuel showed me the doughnut he wanted. It was a powdered doughnut with a sign that said "Feathered Doughnut" (or so I thought) Granted, "Feathered" is a strange way to describe a doughnut, but hey, who am I to argue with the sign?? So I place the order. The lady behind the counter looks at me blankly and says, "Excuse me?" So I pointed and repeated it. Mark looks at me like I am crazy and says, "Do you mean FEATURED ?!?!?!" Once again, my face is blushing. A LOT. We laughed most of the way home.

On Saturday we went to McDonald's. Mark asked if I would mind doing the ordering. (Given my recent track record, he was taking a risk) I managed to get the boys' orders right. I managed to get Mark's order right. When I went to order my double cheeseburger, things got a little weird. Instead of DOUBLE cheeseburger, I said BACON cheeseburger. What makes it even worse is that I did not notice what I had done. Mark commented that he had not seen me order that before. I was thinking he was crazy, I order double cheeseburgers all the time. But no, there it was on the receipt, "cheeseburger, add bacon". Did you know that McDonald's does not have a bacon cheeseburger on their menu?? The reason is probably because their bacon does not mix well with burger meat. Bleh!!

Do any other homeschool moms suffer from brain melt??? Is this typical? My kids are getting smarter, but I'm getting dumber.
