I couldn’t find my jeans. I was in a hurry since I had a “meeting” and waited till the last minute to get ready. Story of my life.
I raced to the laundry room, maybe my jeans were in there. My son was home doing his laundry. I glanced at the piles of clean and folded laundry. (He’s way too neat. Didn’t get it from me.)
“Are my jeans in here somewhere?”
He pulled a load from the dryer. “Here, these are your.”
There on top were my jeans. I grabbed them figuring I didn’t have time to handle the whole load right then. Besides if I leave them he’ll put them away later.
“Hey,” his voice stopped me, “take the whole load, they’re all yours.”
“You sound just like my mother.” I said, grabbing the bundle of clothes, not meaning this as a compliment.
To which my son replied, “Funny, you sound just like mine.”
Adorable!

You reminded me of something my wife and did accidentally–honest. lol We wore each others jeans and they fit fine. My wife said later she was wondering why the pockets were so deep.
Cute story about your son.

That’s so cute. I remember the first time I realized my daughter had my weird sense of humor. ๐ Deidra, I really, really need you to write a book! Or did I miss it? I’ve been off the Internet for a month or so. Let me know. ๐

Ok, for some reason your need to read something and my need to write something are aligning with the stars. I’m going to try something small first. Between work and travel, I’m going to try the airplanes. Wish me luck.

Yay! I’m so ecstatic. I know the airplane is just the place to write because you’re stuck there until it lands. No distractions unless you’re seated next to someone who loves to talk. Let’s hope not ๐

Just laughing and laughing. I’m a procrastination queen myself and almost always late for everything except the really important stuff. And that sounds like a great kid.

Thanks. He jokes so infrequently, that when he does with a completely straight face it’s hysterical.
