The Next Survivor (A Must Read) :D

This is pretty interesting (a friend emailed this to me), I am sure if hubby enters in this competition, there's a possibility that he'd win as the sole survivor eheehehehe. He sure is more organized than me. He is very good in scheduling/doing things up. However, I don't think he'd like to do these things for a very long time. :) I myself don't even do some of the things listed below... at least not yet.

***

The next Survivor Series has been announced...

Six married men will be dropped on an island with one car and 3 kids each for
six weeks.

Each kid will play two sports and either take music or dance classes.

There is no fast food.

Each man must take care of his 3 kids; keep his assigned house clean,
correct all homework, and complete science projects, cook, do laundry,
and pay a list of 'pretend' bills with not enough money.

In addition, each man will have to budget in money for groceries each
week.

Each man must remember the birthdays of all their friends and relatives,
and send cards out on time--no emailing.

Each man must also take each child to a doctor's appointment, a dentist
appointment and a haircut appointment.

He must make one unscheduled and inconvenient visit per child to the
Urgent Care.

He must also make cookies or cupcakes for a social function.

Each man will be responsible for decorating his own assigned house,
planting flowers outside and keeping it presentable at all times.

The men will only have access to television when the kids are asleep and
all chores are done.

The men must shave their legs, wear makeup daily, adorn himself with
jewelry, wear uncomfortable yet stylish shoes, keep fingernails polished
and eyebrows groomed.

During one of the six weeks, the men will have to endure severe
abdominal cramps, back aches, and have extreme, unexplained mood swings
but never once complain or slow down from other duties.

They must attend weekly school meetings, church, and find time at least
once to spend the afternoon at the park or a similar setting.

They will need to read a book to the kids each night and in the
morning, feed them, dress them, brush their teeth and comb their hair by
7:00 am.

A test will be given at the end of the six weeks, and each father will
be required to know all of the following information: each child's
birthday, height, weight, shoe size, clothes size and doctor's name.
Als o the child's weight at birth, length, time of birth, and length of
labor, each child's favorite color, middle name, favorite snack,
favorite song, favorite drink, favorite toy, biggest fear and what they
want to be when they grow up.

The kids vote them off the island based on performance. The last man
wins only if...he still has enough energy to be intimate with his spouse
at a moment's notice.

If the last man does win, he can play the game over and over and over
again for the next 18-25 years eventually earning the right To be called
Mother!

Mom's Day (Tag)

On the 11th, its Mom's Day. Being a Mother is the most difficult, challenging, 24-hour permanent "job" in sometimes a chaotic environment. Oddly enough, we LOVE doing it!!! Why? Because if we do it right, we get FREE hugs and kisses for life! :)

Anyways, here's the tag, by the way, this was passed on to me by Miss Juliana.

Here we go.....

Share your favorite Mother's Day quotes and place your blog/name right after the piece of artwork.

Like Ms. Juliana, I don't really know any Mother's Day quotes, so I just did a littel research too...

"Mother - that was the bank where we deposited all our hurts and worries." ~T. DeWitt Talmage

"A mother is not a person to lean on, but a person to make leaning unnecessary." - Dorothy Canfield Fisher

"The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new." - Rajneesh

I am not sure who I can tag, coz some of you might have done this already... but if you are a MOM and you'd like to snatch this one, feel free to do so. HAPPY MOM'S DAY!
