Another good one to be brought over to the new board.

I am making chili for supper tonight, in the crock pot. Was just going to start browning the meat which I asked Evan to get out of the freezer yesterday and put in the fridge. He did put meat in the fridge, but elk steak instead of burger.

I tell you that kid of mine has had no attention span whatsoever lately. The other day I asked him to turn the oven on to preheat so I could throw some french fries in while hubby was outside grilling. He got up to do it, walked into the kitchen, I saw him. But he didn't turn the oven on.

It's just his age right? (He is 11, soon to be 12). I remember Brandon being scatterbrained through the teenage years but it seems like Evan is taking it to a whole new level, God bless him. :confused: :)

Okay, I'll hijack this thread with a story.

Yesterday, I was going into the restroom to do my morning business. I set my nook upon the counter and reached to get my toothbrush. In my precoffee daze...I must have knocked into my nook and BAM right into the toilet!!! I was PI$$ED, (excuse the pun)!

Ask anyone in my family, my nook travels from room to room with me. Have an extra minute while waiting for the water to boil...read. Stuck between commercials...read. Waiting for the kids to get out of aThis nook is my buddy! I was soooo bummed! Well, after spending all day and night in a ziplock baggie of rice; I am pleased to report my Nook LIVES! YAY!

But honestly, think of the size of a toilet (ring down) and think of the size of a nook...if you were to try to aim and flick it from the counter to the toilet, it would be tough to get that sucker in the bowl. Like trying to bounce a quarter in a shot glass of beer. Not sure what the universe is trying to tell me but Karma sure has one he!! of an aim.
