I’m taking a quick break from the adventures in babysitting to let you all know that I am definitely not on vacation right now. And this is for sure not a photo of my family on the beach this morning. And there is no way that I wrote the previous two posts about babysitting before I left and had them publish automatically. Because, of course, I didn’t leave. Because I’m not on vacation.
That is why I’m posting. Because today is just a regular day, just like any other ‘ole day that I’m not at the beach eating my weight in ice cream and sea food. I haven’t been watching great movies with the man at night or swimming with the kids till my fingers get pruney. So to all you people who want to fork my house or put toilet paper in my trees while we’re on vacation, think again because we’re totally inside.
And we’re watching you.
(More things babysitters wish we knew coming tomorrow).



Have fun on your NOT vacation at the beach…and don’t eat too much ice cream and seafood, but just enough on your NOT vacation!
Haha. I can’t tell you how many times my family was pranked. Most of the time we were home. Sometimes we watched. The funny ones were the ones when my neighbors called the police and the police would wake up the family at 2 a.m. asking if we wanted to press charges against the “perpetrators.” Anyway, I love the picture of your family on your not vacation. Have fun!
That is a FABULOUS picture of your family not on the beach!
I love it!
Have a fantastic time while you’re NOT on vacation!
And how exactly does one “fork” a house.
Oh, how fun, not being on vacation and all. I hope you all have a great time at “home”.
Blessings~~~
Have a great trip! I wish I could NOT be on vacation too!
Kimba,
Enlarge the linked picture…
I’m not on vacation either. How I wish I was. You could still pull out the ice cream though!
How do you “fork” a house?
We just came back from our vacation at Tybee Island, GA and that not-vacation you’re not on looks a lot like Tybee to me…
several years back, I was a youth sponsor in our church, and a few of our youth pulled a lengthy prank. Every few weeks or so, someone involved in leadership with the youth would wake up to find a pink toilet in the middle of their front yard. It tooks us months to figure out who was doing it! Oh well, all in good fun! They could be doing worse things!
I am so NOT jealous of your NOT beach vacation! Okay… just a little
Oh, I’m so glad you’re not on vacation! I would just be too jealous to know what to do with myself! Although, with our basement flooding and all the heat we’ve been having lately, it kind of feels like I’m at the beach…
So maybe I’m not on vacation with you….(in a manner of speaking)
By the way everyone else, forking a house involves spiking a lawn with a million plastic forks (at least where I come from). There is also “flocking” a house – same thing with pink flamingos.
When you’ve been in youth ministry as long as we have, you learn these kinds of things…
Do not have a bad time on your non-existent vacations.
you have me totally feeling better from giggling at yur blog. I need that.
hope you are having fun at home, Not on vacation.
enjoy
I have wanted to not be on the beach for a long time so I’m not jealous…
Sounds like heaven being on your not vacation. Enjoy!
Hope your not having fun while you aren’t on vacation!
You are such a riot and I love how your humor comes through your writing. I hope you’re enjoying all this time that you’re most definitely not at the beach!
