I have to draw the line somewhere
Child 1: "Mom, someone didn't flush again."
Mom: "Please remember to flush the toilet."
Child 2: "But that takes a gallon of water everytime."
Mom: "It doesn't matter...flush!"
Child 2: "But we need to conserve water."
Mom: "Stop taking 20 minute showers, then I might talk about not flushing the toilet. OK?"
Child 1: "Mom, someone didn't flush again."
Mom: "Please remember to flush the toilet."
Child 2: "But that takes a gallon of water everytime."
Mom: "It doesn't matter...flush!"
Child 2: "But we need to conserve water."

Hi Beverly:
How funny : ) Yet isn't it a typical scenario of all kids to pull that trick over the years? I know my girls tried it with me too : ) it must be built into "kids" no matter who or where.
Really funny : )

Great Blog. I added you to my blogroll, Cancer Blog Links at www.beingcancer.net
Take care, Dennis
Open invitation to you and your readers to participate in the Being Cancer Book Club. This month we are discussing “The Last Lecture” by Randy Pausch. “...the lecture he gave ... was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because “time is all you have…and you may find one day that you have less than you think”). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living.”
Monday is Book Club day; Tuesday Guest Blog and Friday Cancer News Roundup.
Also check out Cancer Blog Links containing almost 200 blog links and Cancer Resources with 230 referenced sites, both divided into disease categories.
Please accept this invitation to join our growing cancer blogging community at www.beingcancer.net
Take care, Dennis
