I almost NEVER answer the phone why my kids are awake! Any time my phone rings and I even think about answering, the kids loose their minds! Any one of you moms that has kids at home can relate to this one!
As soon as I answer the phone why they are awake I instantly have telephone Tourettes! I can be having the nicest conversation with someone and all of a sudden BAM this is how the conversation goes down..
Me: Oh sure that would be great! Id love to come and hang out for some girl time!
Caller: Okay great just let me know when you can make it and well get something set up!
Me: OK sounds goo.. DO NOT HIT YOUR SISTER! good ill let ya know!
Caller: um.. okay then, ill get with the others and we can just plan us a girls night!
Me: Yes! That would be DO NOT STICK THAT UP YOUR NOSE! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU CHILD?! That would be great!
Caller: (laughing out loud at me at this point) What do you think we should plan for the dinner?
Me: Well we could do something…OMG DON’T EAT THAT!! Girl I’m gonna have to call you back when I get these kids to sleep and I can hear myself sleep! I mean think!
ya, so for me, most of my phone conversations during the day go down somewhat just like that. From the moment us moms answer that phone and our attention is no longer directed to our children every second, the never ending battle begins!
Thats when all you can do is hope that its a telemarketer calling before you actually answer and then it just becomes fun!
