Main Event: Ruby puts red nail polish through the wash. "What is that smell?" I wonder as I begin to pull clothes out of our supersize dryer. Out comes a dried out brush. Out comes an empty bottle of polish (MY OPI). Out comes a supersized load of polish-crusted clothing. I spend next hour cleaning polish off inside of dryer so I can move in my next load. Do the clothes come clean? To be continued...
Sideshow One: Ashton's room is a LegoLand mess. "Hurry up, Ashton, it's bedtime," I say. "Mom," he replies, "Slow and steady wins the race." Note to self: Too many readings of The Tortoise and the Hare.
Sideshow Two: Ashton, my beloved, turns 5-years-old. I am so thankful to have this bundle of energy in my life. I spend a frantic week prior to his birthday searching for a bike only to discover the Chinese shut down the bike factories and shipped out the workers during the Olympics. There is not a bike to be found at Toys 'R Us, Target, Dick's, or Precision Bike, but I finally find the prized bike at an independent. Ash, Wyatt, and I check out the helmets while the store manager secretly carries bike to my trunk. I'm ecstatic. Jeremy's response, "So what you're telling me, Brandy, is you overpaid." Guess we've been married 12-years.
Sideshow Three: Not to be forgotten, Cade remains fabulously tudie-ta free.
Sideshow Four: Jeremy and I go on a three day vacation sans kids to NYC to see the U.S. Open. I love every second of it (except when I start thinking about kissing Wyatt's cute chubs). Amazing sister Molly flies out from LA to watch the kids. When we get home at 2 a.m. the kitchen is clean, chocolate chip cookies are cooling on the counter, and the kids are happy. Am I lucky, or what?

So so funny. I had to read aloud to Steve on the couch. You should write a book about your life and sell it Brandy!
