Pretty useless things to say in the Meity motor home….
“Please be quiet!” Right.
“Where are we staying tonight?”
“Will you please move out of my way?”
Ok, where to? It’s always in someone else’s way and then….
“Will you please move out of my way?”
“Has anyone seen my ____?”
Chorus: “No”.
“What time is it?” I forbid a gaudy clock hanging on the wall….
“I thought I said – be QUIET!”
When looking for something you KNOW you put in a certain spot. It vanishes.
“Ok, who moved the _____?”
(Kid 1) “I didn’t”.
(Kid 2) “It wasn’t me”.
(Kid 3) “I never saw it”.
(Kid 4) “Never seen it”.
(Mom) “Don’t ask me”.
Mr. Invisible strikes again!
“What’s the date?”
“Where are we going tomorrow?”
Usually only Mom knows, and, she’s usually on the phone when asked.
The question is eventually answered, and, inevitably another little person who was “listening so carefully” will say…..
“Where are we going tomorrow?”
“Ok…Who tooted?” Like anyone’s going to admit that in 270 sq feet of space!

Wal*Mart – Our Favorite!
We are camped tonight (again) at our favorite location!
Kudos to Wal*Mat – they’re pretty smart. Every stop usually withdraws anywhere between $50 and $200 from my bank account. It’s amazing what they have in there that fits in the motor home!
It’s mostly food (of course).
Well….I thought I’d share our Wal*Mart list with you. A bit of insight into what we buy every once in a while…
The Meity Walmart List (or varients thereof)
Marshmallows
Chocolate
Graham crackers
Cookies (if not vetoed by wife)
Veggies and fruit (to offset above items)
Flip flops (yeah, like we’ll find these in Maine in September! KC – think again baby…)
Frozen fruit (if blueberries weren’t available for picking at the campsite)
Paper plates, cups, bowls
Plastic silverware
Knitting needles
Yarn
Smelly tank treatment stuff
Quarters (yup, always “buying” these for laundry!)
Pens (somehow they still get lost)
Videos – 2 for $10 (no kidding)
Crackers, snacks, and anything else that fits in little baggies
Baggies for all the snacks
Batteries
Shorts, t-shirts, shoes, flip flops, or anything else needed to replace the latest stained, ripped, or otherwise ruined item as a result of the last hike or load of laundry
…..you get the idea.
May you enjoy your next Wal*Mart run.
