Events
Just a few of the recent things Zander has said:
“My nose is falling down” - referring to a runny nose
“bye-bye uckies” - while flushing the toilet (we broke him of saying “I love you, uckies” at the same time)
“but the sun is up” - in protest to nap time
“that’s not my choices” - when he doesn’t like the choices we give him
“now my abc’s” - instead of “now I know my abc’s” while singing the alphabet
“I want to go to NEW church” - after he moved to a new class in church (its in a different building)
“who let the dogs out, who, who, who let the cats out” - after watching Shrek the movie (the song is at the end after the credits - he added cats after I said - what about the cats Zander”
My recent favorite:
“can’t wait for Lexi!” - referring to his soon coming baby sister

myThoughts
Have ever seen the insurance commercial where some guy is trying figure out what a light switch does in his house and the garage door two houses down is going up and down, up and down, up and down on some lady’s car, as his flips the switch, then the voice over says, “Life comes at you fast”? The guy asks his wife to look and see if any thing changes in the house while he is hitting the switch - and she just sits outside his view reading a magazine saying, “nothing, nope, I don’t see anything”. Some days I relate this guy - having some switch in my life that I have no idea what it does, and no one is helping me to figure it out. Today I feel like the old lady down the street.
My life is getting slammed over and over and with no apparent cause. I just know that some guy two houses up is saying, “Anything yet honey?”. Nope, nothing yet… Look lady, just get up and help the guy - we’ll all be happier for it.
BTW - TV Fast is still going strong. I’m catching up on my reading. More on that later…

Moments Of Insanity
My first “Moments of Insanity” thought since I started writing the book - Saturday night (Aug 18th), on the way home from my brother’s house, riding in the car with Cher, Dad, Dianne, Zander, and Ava - I thought to myself - I should go a month without watching TV. It just hit me. We were not talking about TV in the car. It didn’t flow with any of our conversations of the night.
But there it was - no TV for a month. So I thought to myself, how do I determine a ‘moment of insanity’ from a wild crazy uninspired thought? Maybe I’ll have to explore that as a chapter in the book. Maybe I will also need a whole chapter on fasting - fasting food, TV, computer time, any kind of fasting. For now, I am forced to deal with this current idea of fasting television. Is it inspired? I’ll let you know after a month of no television (today is day 2 of 30).
… an entire month without any kind of TV?!?! That’s just crazy!
