About 4pm today, I was talking to Rebecca in her room when she pulled a sock out from the bottom of my shirt. This said shirt had been hanging in my closet for a few days and then hanging on my body since I put it on this morning. Why didn't I notice that sock there? Where did it come from? How could a sane woman have managed to go all day (or almost) with a sock inside her shirt and not notice??
A sane woman would have noticed. I didn't notice the sock. Therefore, based on what little I can remember from Philosophy 101, I am not sane. I should hibernate to save my family and myself from any acts of dysfunction that might occur and humiliate us all (imagine if I'd gone shopping today!!).
In honor of my hibernation period, I thought I'd share this wonderful email I received from a friend. It fits!
In this life I'm a woman. In my next life I would like to come back as a bear. When you are a bear, you get to hibernate. You do nothing but sleep for six months. I could deal with that.
Before you hibernate, you're supposed to eat yourself stupid. I could deal with that, too.
When you're a girl bear, you birth your children (who are the size of walnuts) while you're sleeping and wake to partially grown, cute, cuddly cubs. I could definitely deal with that.
If you're a mama bear, everyone knows you mean business. You swat anyone who bothers your cubs. If your cubs get out of line, you swat them, too. I could deal with that.
If you're a bear, your mate EXPECTS you to wake up growling. He EXPECTS that you will have hairy legs and excess body fat.
Yup, gonna be a bear!!!

I had a good laugh over that one, Mom! When it happened, and now when your witty post put it at its best. And you just gotta love the bear come-back.

HAHA!! Great! That is really funny...
Mom, c'mon! As Caleb would say, "What fat?" lol!
Love you!! Sarah
How funny! LOL!
I think people should hibernate too. :D In the past people have done less during the winter months.
My mom once took us to the store with her jeans on backwards.
I am also glad you didn't go shopping, since that sock might have dropped out and then it would be lost in a parking lot somewhere and you would be frustrated trying to make the pair! I've read that hibernation thought before and think it is absolutely hilarious!!! Great post. You've made my day.
Now that IS funny! A great introduction to your blog for me! I found you from the Spencers blog- thanks for a good chuckle!
Oh my goodness Mrs. H... That absolutely made my night. I miss you guys so much!
And just so you know... Sane people are BORING!
Love you H's! ♥♥♥
