Okay, so i was wrong or DOES THAT MAKE ME CRAZY

Okay when the babies were growing up

and I would push my authority

they would angrily tell me

"OH YOU ARE JUST SO PERFECT"

and I would remind them that what made me

perfect is that when I was wrong I could admit it.

Of course I am not perfect

(sorry to disappoint all you readers)

but I can admit when I am wrong.

So I was wrong about not needing a land line phone.

Yes, it has been quiet and peaceful

if you don't count the times HOBL talks to his dogs.

It has had lots of advantages and I am not

completely happy about having to get another phone.

I did not take into account that when my

old Mumsie calls me I wouldn't be able to teach

her the delay it takes for the phone to ring

which put me answering the cell to her trying

to dial the number again while I patiently wait

for her to be done.

I did not account for the fact that when my babies

call me I would not be able to hear them or

their calls would be dropped.

Really these are the two reasons that we are

getting a landline once again.

So yesterday morning HOBL and I have

our discussion (cough argument cough)

over whether or not we will get a land line.

Oh whatever, HOBL we are getting a land line.

So I leave not too happy but HOBL can't stand

when I am not happy so he calls me on my

way to Mumsie's place and tries to lighten the day

by offering to tear down some walls so our cell service is better.

Last night we went to eat supper with baby boy, baby momma,

lovey and the other set of grandparents.

We tell baby boy and baby momma that

we are getting a landline again and both

give a sigh of relief and BB says he is so aggravated

when he tries to call and the call gets dropped.

Of course HOBL has to add that never happens to him

because you know, he is the King of cells and

a call would not ever be dropped when he makes it.

I tell him he is lying but I am not so nice about it.

Here is the part where HOBL and I may be crazy.

I share with the kids that HOBL offered to tear some

walls down to make the service better.

Baby boy looks at his daddy as serious as a heart attack

and says,

"Dude you don't think it would be cheaper to just

get a land line?!"

He honestly believes that we are serious about

tearing down some walls.

The funny thing is that you may be crazy when

you make a statement like this to your grown child

and he really believes you would do that.

I have to tell him that it was a joke and he

looks at me with that face that tells me

"I didn't know it is Dad we are talking about"

phhhhaaahhhhaaaa that is soooo funnnyyy!!!!!

We are crazy, crazy in love huh, HOBL?
