Negative Blog Comments

Sunday, October 10th, 2010
Well I guess I'm a "real" blogger now!  I got my first nasty blog comment today.  After almost 5 years of blogging, I guess it's about time.  It kind of cracks me up.

Today I got an email showing that I had a new comment on my Calgary Corn Maze post from last year.  When I opened it here's what I found....

"From Anonymous:


Im looking for information on the Calgary Corn Maze and I find this. Why do people put this garbage on the internet. Why would you report to the world that you went to a corn maze? Stunning clutter.

Dave"


This really makes me laugh for a few reasons:

  1. He actually commented.  How long does it take to just click "Back" if the page brought up by Google isn't the one you want.  I BEG readers to leave comments but this is what I get.  Ha!
  2. Has he SEEN the internet?  If I'm clutter then what are all the spammer sites, p0rn sites, etc?  Really!
  3. No I don't give time/date info for the corn maze but if you have small children, reading a blog about the experience of someone similar to you can be helpful.
Anyhoo.  I just thought I would share because I thought it was hilarious!  So have you gotten negative "troll" comments on your blog?  How do you handle it/what do you think?  I would love to hear your experiences!

Oh and Happy Canadian Thanksgiving!

Who’s Afraid of a Turtle?

Monday, March 22nd, 2010
Evan....that's who!  We brought him this turtle backpack from Mexico and he won't even LOOK at it!  Whenever I try to show it to him, he says "I'm busy mama!"  I then put it on the bed & went into our ensuite bathroom.  Evan went over to the bed & flung the turtle in the floor.  He said "Mama I throwed it!"

Who know this could be so frightening!


Good Mommy or Bad Mommy?

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010
Things have been crazy busy around here the last couple of weeks. Dewey and I are able to roll with the punches but often Evan is the one that gets the short end of the stick. I'm trying to get better about making sure that we do things especially for him sometimes instead of just "around" him. For example...tonight I thought I would take Evan to the mall b/c he likes to eat out occasionally and I could take the purse I got for Christmas back b/c it's falling apart. 2 minutes up the road I thought "Am I really doing this for him or am I doing this to take back my purse?". I turned off at the next exit and went to McDonald's. He LOVES McDonald's. He says "Buggers and Fwyes are my favrit!"

So the good mommy/bad mommy comes in when I think...."Am I teaching him the right thing by taking him to McDonald's as a treat?". I tend to subscribe to the thought that as long as he doesn't eat it all the time it is fine.

Oh...and did I mention that this McDonald's has a PlayPlace? One that is in a separate part that has the WORST ACOUSTICS EVAH???? Ugh. There were big kids running amok & screaming everywhere. I told Evan "I don't think you should play b/c those kids are really big." He was hearing nothing of it. He stood on the edge of the playground for a while before he ventured forward. Then next thing you know he was climbing up into the play structure.



THEN......he got stuck. He stuck his face to the plexiglass and said "Mommy come help me!" So, I had to take off my boots and climb in to help him down. Once we got out I said it was time to go home. The little monkey was already climbing up the other part of the playground. I stopped him before he got too far & off we went.


Happy Friday!

Yay! The week from hell is over!

We have our friend Rune visiting from Austin. We love visitors! For Dewey & Me it means adult conversation and maybe a few glasses of wine. For Evan it means a new person to talk to non-stop. He talked to "Roooma" all night. So cute. When we put him to bed he said "I wuv you mama!". I said "Do you love Daddy?" Evan said "Yep, and that other guy."

He is so funny!


Wordless Wednesday - Evan’s a Kitty!

Thursday, February 4th, 2010
Well, yet another week with no What's Cooking Wednesday. I'm sorry & I hope that next week I will be back at it. It's been crazy around here with work stuff so know that it's not that I don't WANT to post!

Here are some pics from our trip to Kimberly. I gave Evan some dry Cheerios in a bowl. He decided they were cat food & here's the result. Crazy kid!

WHY GOD MADE MUMS

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

My friend Jenn sent this to me and it was so cute I thought I would share. Enjoy!

Answers given by 2nd grade school children to the following questions:

Why did God make mothers?

1. She's the only one who knows where the sticky tape is.
2. Mostly to clean the house.
3. To help us out of there when we were getting born.


How did God make mothers?

1. He used dirt, just like for the rest of us.
2. Magic plus super powers and a lot of stirring.
3. God made my Mum just the same like he made me. He just used bigger parts.


What ingredients are mothers made of ?

1. God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and everything nice in the world and one dab of mean.
2. They had to get their start from men's bones. Then they mostly use string, I think.


Why did God give you your mother and not some other Mum?

1. We're related.
2. God knew she likes me a lot more than other people's Mums like me.


What kind of little girl was your Mum?

1. My Mum has always been my Mum and none of that other stuff.
2. I don't know because I wasn't there, but my guess would be pretty bossy.
3. They say she used to be nice.


What did Mum need to know about Dad before she married him?

1. His last name.
2. She had to know his background. Like is he a crook? Does he get drunk on beer?
3. Does he make at least $800 a year? Did he say NO to drugs and YES to chores?


Why did your Mum marry your Dad?

1. My Dad makes the best spaghetti in the world. And my Mum eats a lot.
2. She got too old to do anything else with him.
3. My Grandma says that Mum didn't have her thinking cap on.


Who's the boss at your house?

1. Mum doesn't want to be boss, but she has to because Dad's such an idiot.
2. Mum. You can tell by room inspection. She sees the stuff under the bed.
3. I guess Mum is, but only because she has a lot more to do than Dad.


What's the difference between Mums & Dads?

1. Mums work at work and work at home and Dads just go to work at work.
2. Mums know how to talk to teachers without scaring them.
3. Dads are taller & stronger, but Mums have all the real power 'cause that's who you got to ask if you want to sleep over at your friend's.
4. Mums have magic, they make you feel better without medicine.


What does your Mum do in her spare time?

1. Mothers don't have spare time.
2. To hear her talk, she pays bills all day long.


What would it take to make your Mum perfect?

1. On the inside she's already perfect. Outside, I think some kind of plastic surgery.
2. You know, her hair. I'd die it, maybe blue.


If you could change one thing about your Mum, what would it be?

1. She has this weird thing about me keeping my room clean. I'd get rid of that.
2. I'd make my Mum smarter. Then she would know it was my sister who did it and not me.
3. I would like her to get rid of those invisible eyes on the back of her head.
