Warning - This is a Sassy One (read at your own risk)

Two posts tonight.

Some days are just full of funny, and you find some sass to keep you going. Here goes:

Found this on the Catalog Favorites website. Jenn, this made me think of you and all your kitties. I should get a t-shirt that says ,"Everything I know about sarcasm I learned from my kids."

I also found this one:



Catalog Favorites website again. I was thinking it would be funny to wear to the Dave Ramsey workshop we're all going to.

And I found these on eBay, at a person's eBay store called Whimsy Under Glass. They are 1" x 1-1/2" pendants: "With ribbon, ball chain, or leather cording attach a pendant to a candle, the rearview mirror of your car, your purse, your belt loop, make it into a book mark or hang any where you want a little framed art!"

Gotta have this one, because some days are like this.

Frankly, I'm not sure exactly what the meaning of this is. Does it mean you should just own the ten pounds of ice cream hiding all around your rear end, or does it kind of a "cut the crap" sort of sentiment? But anyway, it sounds funny, and I might have to acquire it also.

And here are the lyrics from a song I stumbled across on a Napster playlist:
"Sometimes It Takes Balls to Be a Woman" by Elizabeth Cook

Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
Standing up to a test, while wearing a party dress
Sometimes looks can be deceiving when you're quietly over-achieving
Yeah sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

She's a socialite, a decent housewife and she makes a mean lasagna
So when the mechanic, said "Lady don't panic, but this one's gonna cost ya"
She said "I know I don't need my engine rebuilt, now just check the oil and
change the belt,
Honey, I know you thought you saw me coming"
Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
Standing up to a test, while wearing a party dress
Sometimes looks can be deceiving when you're quietly over-achieving
Oh, sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

He says I should repent for the money I spent on shoes and bags and jewelry
Well "To hell with that, my hard working ass ain't gonna sit before a jury"
Now isn't that a mighty small price to pay
For all the love I send your way

Honey when it comes down to the plumbin'
Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

Chorus
Sometimes It takes balls to be a woman
Standing up to a test, while wearing a party dress
Sometimes looks can be deceiving when you're quietly over-achieving
Oh, sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

Look at Dolly and Loretta, they still live it to the letter
Oh, sometimes it takes balls to be a woman
Sometimes it takes balls to be, big big big big balls to be
Sometimes it takes balls to be a woman

And this webpage has sooo many Mother funnies on it, I'll just put the link here, and you can go read it there - . It has a Mother Job Description on it. I may have to write my own version, especially put in a part about how a woman can NEVER, EVER leave the job site (men have absolutely no comprehension of the emotional/psychological strain of this, Sue when can we ditch our kids and go hide out in a hotel room and be completely useless?), but that's for another day. After all, I gotta quit staying up until 2am writing blog posts. I gotta get my exercising done before the kids wake up! 'Night y'all!

Loved them all...
Just a thought, but to me the "Big Girl Panties" is like "Cowboy Up". And you are already doing the "Giggle More" - and hopefully finding these cute motherhood quips, is taking some of the stress away and boosting your mood to a happier, more "I'm at peace with myself" place. So put on your party dress and You Go Girl. LOL
