Oh Poo...

I'm such a naive mommy.  I thought that because baby girl was crying after the silent period that typically precedes her efforts to create a full dirty diaper, that it was time to go ahead and change her.  But apparently my little starfish wasn't crying to be changed quite yet.  No, as soon as I was mid tushy wipe I felt something warm on my hand.  At first I thought, "oh boy here we go again, she peed on me". 

But then I looked down just in time to catch the jet action of her little digestive system as she shot poo across my hand, onto the changing pad cover, then onto the crib sheet, and finally onto the packet of wipes at the foot of the crib. (she gets a 4 out of 5 for distance for sure)

All I could do was laugh. 

I knew it was gonna happen eventually.  I've been peed on already quite a few times so I was sort of prepared.  But her pee just dribbles and puddles around her little tushy and is pretty easy to clean up.  This was a completely different, projectile, beast.  One that required about 6 baby wipes and a quick one-handed change in bedclothes so a load of laundry could be started once baby girl had a fresh clean nappy on. 

I swear, she smiled the entire time too.  It's like she was waiting... plotting when and where she would finally poo on mommy. 

Touche starfish... touche.

There will be days when it seems that that your starfish will stare right through you. As to say what are you doing.

that the boy never peed on me, let alone hit me with a poop stream, is kind of a miracle. i always figured he would. sounds like your girl is a real, ahem, pistol.

Digital Camera Help...

I recently bought a Kodak EasyShare M863 camera at Circuit City. I am not thrilled with the quality of pictures and some of the camera's functions. Mind you, I've only taken about 50 pictures so far, but when I uploaded them to my laptop and viewed them on the screen, they just looked horrible. My old camera was a Sony Cybershot DSC-S600. It took GREAT pictures but it had a lot of mechanical issues. I'd sent it back to the factory three times and it could really be worked on agian, but alas, my warranty is kaputz. So I've snapped off my usual fare of en route, on the road pictures and all of them suck. I've tried about 5 of the major "settings" and it doesn't seem to matter what I do, but they all turn out grainy and "foggy" and just crummy. For the money I paid for this camera it should take better quality pictures. Of course, today I reviewed the new camera online via various sites and it seems that the "crummy picture syndrome"

Open Forum

I have been thinking about opening myself up for questions and inquiry on both a personal and professional level recently. Today I decided I'd go for it. I am opening the floor to you, my readers, to ask me anything. Now, please understand that I have the right to refuse to answer any question I do no feel will be productive or at least entertaining. I am hoping for some really interesting questions, so don't disappoint me! I also would appreciate keeping things G or at least PG, in case there are young impressionable's reading this blog. I am anxious to see what you want to know about me and my life on the road. As questions come in and I have time to answer them, I will post them as individual blogs. So stay tuned... this should get interesting!

Blowin' Stuff Up

Man, I've been seriously fortunate lately. Since I last posted, I had the pleasure of finally putting that darned HAZMAT endorsement to use by taking a load of potassium nitrate into Canada. Of course, my initial reaction was to wonder why my dispatcher hated me enough to do this to me. But then I realized it was just a fine opportunity to expand my horizons. I was afraid that the load was going to be a huge hassle when crossing the border. Turns out, they didn't give two craps about what I was hauling. I approached customs anticipating much ado and received...well... nothing. I was in Canada in less than 5 minutes upon reaching the border crossing. Woo hoo! So far so good. So I arrive at my destination and find myself thinking that finally the tables have turned and luck is running for the hills. The place I delivered to was a small "airline hanger" of a building on a road that was restricted to 5 tons per axle (which equals NOT ME). Of course, I had to tak
