The term 'ole lady'. What is that? Is that the same thing as old lady? Living in the Bible belt of the south it is fairly common to hear that term. And when you hear a man saying the term, whether he is 25 or 65, he is usually referring to his wife. That annoys the hell out of me! I think it is rude and most of all disrespectful. I have heard this my entire life. But tonight I was watching this show where this man and his family are bail bondsmen. The wife is very loud and harsh, unafraid to speak her mind but her husband calls her the old lady and she doesn't really seem to care. What the heck???? My husband has never referred to me this way and I don't expect that he ever will. He wasn't raised that way and we don't really run in that kind of circle where those kind of remarks are acceptable. Don't get me wrong, he is not perfect and may often want to call me something not so nice, but I don't think old lady would be his choice. I just think the term is rude.
P is still sick. She coughs and coughs, sneezes and snots. She has been in the bed for almost 4 hours now and she is still coughing. It annoys me to take her to the doctor and they tell me she is only congested and we can't give her anything. So in the mean time, my exhausted little girl is coughing all night which means no one here sleeps. Poor thing is miserable.
I found the coolest thing yesterday in the store. It is called a Dripstik. I was waiting to see if the store had a coupon come out in tomorrow's paper before I bought them. But I just realized they had a website so I may just go ahead and order. I am going to try and insert a picture. This may be the best invention ever and guess who invented it?? A MOM!!! Go figure! This is a must for all kiddies who love ice cream! Check out their site:
