morning:
I play dolls with kid
throw the Kong ball to puppy
and play dolls some more
.
later:
instead of rushing
to the store we meet up with
a caterpillar
.
afternoon:
I scream in the car
a tick on my tummy while
driving to Walmart
.
dinnertime:
8:57
kid’s still eating mac and cheese
puppy looks for crumbs
.
bedtime:
husband sick in bed
nursing a cup of miso
daughter rubs her eyes
.
night time:
pup goes out for one
last poop I close my eyes and
listen to crickets














Walmart !?!

D. Gale,
Have YOU ever tried shopping for a training potty in New Hampshire? Walmart or Target, take your pick

. . .Target. Union-friendley(ier).
Hey, I’m in the AFL-CIO. Walmart is anathema to all things civil and decent.

PS:
The only potty training I need is for my mouth.

Target Target Target. Do I need to say it again? Target!
I wouldn’t be a good Minnesotan if I didn’t take a moment to promote our hometown business! That, and I have a number of family members and friends who work for Target Corp and depend on their salaries. Target!
Other than that - I LOVED this look into your entire day. Very cool.
And the part about the tick — I would have been screaming with you!

So descriptive!!!
And on the topic of Target - none of these companies are saints: http://pol.moveon.org/state/target/?rc=fb

I know, I know. Target has gotten a lot of bad press, even here in its hometown, for this. But still. I’ll take Target over Wal-mart any day.
