I can remember innumerable afternoons waiting with ringing ears for her father to return from work so HE could listen to her while I hid in the bathroom for a few minutes to give my ears a rest! Twenty years later, it doesn't happen as often, but she still retains the ability to make my ears ring from her continual chatter. I love listening to her, but it does boggle the mind that she can talk for so long without pause!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-91554967344521578472012-03-06T12:19:28.259-05:002012-03-06T12:19:28.259-05:00There's nothing like two hours alone in Target...There's nothing like two hours alone in Target to steel you for whatever else the day may bring!

When my middle complains about the youngest talking his ear off I just laugh at him. Hello, Pot.

If there is one thing raising four children has done to help me in the work world, this is it. I can function extremely well with all sorts of commotion going on about me.<br /><br />And I love being alone with the quiet, something I never realized how much I enjoy.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08556301919720689325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29186394.post-28462876471896514952012-03-06T03:48:24.775-05:002012-03-06T03:48:24.775-05:00I have Tuesdays and Thursdays from 12:30-2 when al...I have Tuesdays and Thursdays from 12:30-2 when all the kids are in school and the house is quiet. It's wonderful.
