An addendum to yesterday’s post
June 27, 2011
I want to add a little note to my post yesterday particularly concerning the part where I talk about our smallish table being only able to seat 8 of us. Now, anyone who can subtract 8 from 10 realizes that leaves 2 people out of the action and not just one and you would be correct. The other person who usually waited for a spot at the table was Matt. Sometimes it was Jeff or Chris, but most of the time it was Matt. I know he wasn’t thrilled with it, but he didn’t often complain either. Big family life does have a lot of perks, but there is a lot of sharing and sacrifice involved too and my kids have learned a lot about those things. So, I just wanted to make that clarification. FWIW – one of these days we will have a new table that will have extensions so that we can ALL eat a meal together. Of course, once people get married and have kids we’ll be back to the usual or have to add card tables to seat everyone. Oh well, at least we know the drill :-).
About Me
Hi - welcome to Oh Crap! and if you come back enough times you'll soon find out why I named my blog that.
I am an unperfect mom to 8 great kids: 5 boys and 3 girls (and I had them in that order too).
I have been married for either 39 really long or really short years depending on how my day is going.
Even though I have homeschooled my children for the last 30 years, I am certainly no supermom - unless you count the days I have to rescue my daughters from a moth in their room.
I love coffee, chocolate, and music from the 80's. I enjoy reading books, chick flicks, and thirtysomething.
So, that's me in a nutshell (and I'm probably more of a nut than you know). Thank you for visiting me on my blog!

It doesn't bother me having to wait. Once I have a spot, I know everybody else has gotten their fill and I can feel less guilty about taking more ;)

Hehe - yeah, kinda thought so :-). One thing about you and I waiting around together was extra time to chat - always enjoyed that.
