Bad Mother Confessions - First Installment

I will be starting a new feature in this blog called "Bad Mother Confessions" - this will likely prompt to update more often because I have a landslide of these to share with you.

Part I

When Simon was still on formula, I used to boil the water on the stove in a pot to make his milk. One day, a couple of hours after I had made his milk, I came back into the kitchen to clean up. I noticed that there were two identical pots on the stove side by side: one held the leftover water I had boiled for the baby milk, the other had the oily water left from when Rich had made hot dogs earlier that day. Two identical pots. Side by side. The one for the baby milk seemed to have far more water left in it than there should have been.

To this day, I'm unable to confirm if I had made a batch of Simon's milk with distilled water or with hot dog water. Did I throw away the milk to be on the safe side? Hell no - because that would have invovled time that I DIDN'T have to make another batch.

Would you like fries with that?

Hilarious! I can't believe you still have stories like this on your mind! I am glad you started blogging again, I love reading your posts! I keep saying I really should start one because I always think of so many things I would like to rant about in an open forum (a great forum for'em) but never any time....maybe after the wedding, I keep saying! It is a good way to update a bunch of people at once on your life instead of individually emailing them. Only thing is, you have to be careful who you rant about (i.e. family or friends) depending on who u've given your link to!
