If Today is Fun Friday, What Should We Call Thursday?

Schatz has swim lessons on Fridays.  Last Friday the leisure pool was closed for cleaning.  Schatz overheard her swim teacher telling me that the last six Thursdays in a row the leisure pool had been closed for cleaning and she'd moved her lessons to the deeper 25 meter pool which is tough because the littler kids can't touch the bottom. Today we were pulling up to the pool for her lesson...

Me:  Schatz, the leisure pool is closed again.

Schatz:  Will I still have my lesson?

Me: Yes, but it will probably be in one of the other pools.

Schatz (a little put out):  Why is the pool closed?

Me:  They are cleaning it out...probably somebody had an accident.

Schatz (stomping her foot):  Why did they have an accident today?  They are supposed to do that on Poop in the Pool Thursday NOT Fun Friday!

Interpreting P!nk

Schatz:  Can you turn on some music?

Me:  Sure.  What would you like to listen to?

Schatz:  Ummm.  The one where the girl can't find her husband so she decides to drink a beer.

Art Therapy

Schatz is NOT a morning person.  She was especially grumpy yesterday morning.  While I was packing her lunch box, she was sitting at the counter drawing in her sketch book.  Looking over her shoulder...



Me: What'cha drawing?

Schatz:  This is a girl who is mad because her mommy woke her up too EARLY.  She wants to be asleep!
