Is it baseball season yet?  Hubby says they are getting ready for spring cleaning, I mean training.  Freudian slip, there....I need to get into spring cleaning mode.  I have various ideas of what to do and how to do it.  But that is for another post.  Today it is about-- You're OUT!

This past weekend another adult sponsor and I took 9 overactive teens to the hill country to our Christian camp.  I really thought they'd sleep on the way up.  Silly me! 

Every...single...one...of....them....said....they....would....sleep....in....the....van.  Every one! 

They were as wide-eyed and bushy-tailed as if it were Christmas morn and Santa Claus had come.  And I loved it.  My goal has been to start and grow a youth fellowship at this church.  Our first year, Hubby and Boy went (the other father and son backed out).  Our second year Hubby, Boy, and 2 other boys went.  This year, Strawberry, a Dad, 5 boys and 4 girls went!!!  I can't wait to see what next year will bring. 

Any who, I didn't feel like cooking and I did feel like a chicken sandwich from Mickey D's so Hubby and I trekked over there to order dinner.  Now I will say we have had trouble with this particular establishment before.  Career girl was craving one of those bbq rib sandwiches.  They were offered for a limited time so of course we crave them, right?  We get home and guess what? No rib sandwich.  This trip Hubby ordered and she repeated it back wrong.  No, this is what we want.  She repeats and asks an inaudible question. What?  mumble mumble mumble.  WHat?  gurgle gurgle gurgle.  WHAT????? I figured out she was probably asking about sauce for Boy's nuggets.  Now Hubby and I ordered the same thing and Boy ordered something that goes with a sauce so how did our order get so screwed up???  One chicken sandwich, one quarter pounder and no nuggets.  Because I know how this place operates, I told Hubby not to move an inch in the car till I checked the bags.  Unfortunately they gave us part of an order and told us to move up.  THREE times the attendant had to go back and forth with their mistake and then they were going to charge us for the mistake????  

The funny part about it is this was really our last time to go because Boy and I were planning a wheat-free cuisine from now on.  This was our swan song to fast food (for a while at least...don't be mean...I know you know me and I say this a lot but I truly meant it at the time!!!).

 Fool me once, shame on you.....fool me twice, shame on me....fool me three times,  YOU'RE OUT!!!!  Giving up this place will be easy!
