Potty Training




I know very little of this subject, only that a) girls train faster than boys and b) kids with older siblings are faster learners. I have neither! Just a little boy who is scared of the potty! Where do I start? Why won't he just sit on the $40 potty chair i bought him? Why is it fun for him to watch Jeremy go, (and make bubbles) but not fun for him? For my own sanity I sure hope these questions gain answers quickly!!!

So I went everywhere in OKC today in search of those thick training underwear my mom keeps talking about, and had no luck. You know the ones that we wore 30 years ago? Apparently they have discontinued those (or so I thought) and are now making Pull-ups. I hate the concept of Pull-ups. It's a diaper! If a kid has on a 'diaper', they are going to pee in it. period. Everyone says well it is easier for them to pull them on and off. B.S. If they are able to pull down their Pull-up, then they can certainly undo a diaper!!! Besides, have you seen the price of Pull-ups? geesh!!!!Anyway back to the thick training underwear. I finally found some an Amazon.com after hours of searching and ordered them!! Why am I thinking these are going to so magic? They look magical, don't they?

Turning 30!



So I am turing 30 in one month from today. I really don't know how to feel about this. Once a person is out of their 20's they are no longer young. I can't say "I am in my 20's" and feel good about it anymore. That dreaded day is creeping up on me! I found these statistics for people turning 30 and thought they were funny.

  1. The average person has had 7.5 jobs, and you'll have 2.4 more by age 35.


  2. At age 30, you're older than 42 percent of Americans.


  3. You're 26 percent less likely to make a New Year's resolution in your 30s... but if you do make one, you're 26 percent more likely to stick to it.


  4. You're 26 percent less likely to make a New Year's resolution in your 30s... but if you do make one, you're 26 percent more likely to stick to it.


  5. 0.036 percent of people are in elementary school at age 30.


  6. One out of 33 men and one out of 25 women are virgins at age 30.


  7. 81 percent of women and 71 percent of men have been married by age 30 (and 16 percent of each have been divorced).


  8. The most common way to die at age 30 is by accident.


  9. 30 is the average age of retirement for NFL players.


  10. The odds you'll make it to your late 30s are 99,003 out of 100,000, or 99.003 percent.

Well it looks like maybe my 30's won't be too bad. I will just have to embrace this new decade of my life and jump in!! I will update you the actual day of my bday and let you know if I feel the same!!!
