May I have your Attention - Again!


I am the meanest daughter in the world. I have given my dad a heart attack and he yelled at me! Our conversation went like this:

D - "Do you have something you want to tell me?"

S - "No, should I?"

D - "What is on your blog?"

S - "I don't know, what?"

D - "You think you are moving and you did not tell me?"

S - "Sorry, we were not sure about it yet."

D - "Well, I hope Christopher likes to hunt. Because I will be up for the white tail and the pheasants."

S - "OK."

D - "Are you really moving?"

S - "Dad, what day is it?"

D - "Wednesday."

S - "Dad, what is the date?"

D - "You little ****!"

I thought all morning of a good April Fool's Day Joke. I thought about the pregnancy scare, but most everyone already knows I cannot have any more!

A few weeks ago I started joking with my kids that we were going to move away. I looked up job openings in Christopher's company and found one in Minot, North Dakota. So I sat on the computer and looked for a house. I would call the girls over to have them give their approval.

Rylie would cry and cry, then say, "I'll move there if I can have that room!", "But I'm NOT moving!"

So, sad to say, we are NOT moving to Minot, North Dakota. We are staying out in our little hillbilly heaven!

I knew it had to be an April Fool's joke! I mean why would anyone in their right mind move out of Randolph. Good one though Shelly!!!!

You got Judy soooo good. I had to remind her of the date before she started crying. For my joke, I called up all of the neighbors looking for an unused pregnancy test that I could take to my other pregnant neighbor to "positive" it for me. Do you think I could find one?!? Doesn't anybody ever worry that they're pregnant or anything. Earl probably would have divorced me though. April fools-Gotta love it!
