Little Miss Dangerous

Today was a cleaning day and Katie helped; however, cleaning with Katie is dangerous.  I washed the walls in our guest bathroom and used a sponge mop to do so.  At one point, Katie got a hold of the mop and proudly announced that she was helping.  Two seconds later she accidentally whopped me in the head with the sponge end of the mop.  There I stood with Mr. Clean dripping down my head.  Then I had the step-ladder in the bathroom so I could reach the high corners of the room.  Katie moved the ladder so one leg was on my foot.  I didn't get a chance to say "Ouch" before she started climbing on it.  Her forty pounds of weight really hurt my foot.  About twenty minutes later I was wiping up juice that dribbled on the kitchen floor when Katie crashed into me while driving her Katie Kart and for good measure she ran over my foot when she backed up.

There were a couple of other accidents created by Katie that resulted in me getting hit or smacked.  However, because there were so many I began to question the accidentalness of her actions.

Katie also suffered due to her incoordination.  She tripped and ended up between the legs of the step-ladder; tripped while getting in the golf cart and ended up on her hands and knees on the cart's floor; catapulted off of her hoppy-horse and hit her head; and got smacked in the cheek by something--I wasn't in the room at the time.  Yes, it was a dangerous day at Corinth West.

As for the pictures below, yesterday Katie received a package from Rick's Mom and Dad.  In it was a hat and matching purse that they got at a Cracker Barrel.  Katie loves her new accessories and was happy to model them for me and you despite her somber look in the first picture.





Below is a picture of my Scentsy display that I set up for my Scentsy Parties.  I decided to go with a burgundy and gold theme.  It looks much better in person when it is not set up in a burgundy-walled room.  If you are interested in hosting a Scentsy party, just drop me a line.  You can click on the link on the right rail towards the bottom to do so.  Speaking of Scentsy, I had a party last night with a fellow MOPS as the hostess and it went really well.  Like with all things, you try to think of every possible question and scenario but invaribly a situation that you never considered will pop up.  Real life experience is always the best teacher and I learned where I need to further tweak my presentation.  And a big THANK YOU to Dianna for hosting the party.

Til later.........
