Mission Impossible?

Today's Mission: Make it to school without a meltdown and with our glasses.

1/2 Mission Completed: We made it to school with our glasses. We had a semi-meltdown over the air conditioning in the van. Someone was cold. I thought that I would never say this...this subject was never spoken about when I was growing up, my Mamaw Brawner, to the day she died, whispered the words like ovaries, periods, and sex...now I am going to say it...I do believe that a certain 13 year old is experiencing PMS. One second she is a cute little lamb, with her little make up and cute little head band in her hair...and the next second, someone has let a hungry lion out of the cage and we are alllllll raw meat, no one is safe, not even the air conditioner. I felt sorry for me, Taylor and the air conditioning control this morning. Enough said.

Oh, not enough said...I forgot about this yesterday in the mist of the eye glass ordeal. I asked Mary Margaret in code, since there was a MAN present in the van, if she had remember to carry "something" in her purse for "just in case". She said no I forgot, but I have some in a cubby in the back of the Van, I'll get one. (I'm sure Tim knew what we were talking about, the "code" just makes MM feel better) TAYLOR who was not listening because of the blubbering over her glasses says to Mary Margaret..."What are you going to get, some pads for your period? I don't have mine yet. I don't have to wear a pad!" Mary Margaret: "OH MY GOD, TAYLOR. Now I'm so embarrassed! I can't believe you said that! I'm so freakin embarrassed. Now Tim knows everything!!!!" Taylor: "Tim already knows everything, Kaye tells him everything." Mary Margaret: "Now I'm double embarrassed. Gee Thanks!"

So I guess we really had two meltdowns yesterday. I thought that MM's meltdown was funny, (let me point out, I DID NOT LAUGH AT MM, I am smarter than that). The eye glass meltdown was not funny.
