Lice, seriously??

There's lice in Kindergarten. An OCD mother's worst nightmare, let's not even think about the consequences of getting lice in this head of hair I sport.

I was spraying Hannah's hair with hairspray before school the other day in an effort to keep the bugs away and tried to explain that it would help the situation. She let it pass with few comments.

The next morning I got her all ready and as we were finishing up she says: "Mom, are you gonna spray some of that bug spray in my hair?"

I can only imagine that she went to kindergarten that morning and announced to her friends that her loving mother had doused her hair with "bug spray" before sending her to school. In my defense it really would be hard to get it out of my hair. In fact I think we might have to just shave it and start over.

• We are off to see Elmo Live tonight, and spending the night in a hotel. This of course means we are on "vacation". It doesn't take much to impress kids.
• A branch fell across the street effectively knocking out our Internet service for two whole days. I am recovering from severe withdrawals. Abe also tried to maul the repairman this morning. That's always fun.

I was watching "Super Hero Squad" with Will yesterday. He is convinced he's Wolverine, claws and all. I mistakenly said I was one of the other characters who happens to be a bad guy. I obviously didn't know this at the time. Before I knew it he was on top of me, attacking me with his claws, and bouncing on my belly. Talk about shock. This gal is getting a bit old to defend myself in a moments notice. From now own I think I'll just watch silently.
