dad-isms

my mom and dad came to visit. its always so fun when they come to my house because usually its me going to theirs. its nice to have them in "my world" once in a while. Even though they're in my world, my dad is still, my dad, and has little ways to make "my world" into "his world" 

welcome to "his world"

first things first. the bed in his room was turned the other way, and up against the wall, so my mom had to climb over him to get into bed and. that would simply not do, so he rearranged the room and moved the bed. 

problem solved 

 the closet in his room is full of my fabric and craft stuff. so there was no where for him to unpack his clothes (my parents LOVE to unpack) so he went to home depot and got him self some shelves so he had a place for his stuff.

problem solved.

it seems there was some confusion as to what garbage can was for trash, and what was for recycle. i've never been confused about it before, but apparently it wasn't clear. so he wrote TRASH with PERMANENT marker on my trash can

thank goodness there will be no more confusion

problem solved.

obviously the tools i had in my tool box were not sufficient.

dont worry, he and home depot also took care of that

problem solved.

he was a nervous wreck with niya outside, with no grates on the window wells. i told him it was on our to do list for spring. spring couldn't come quick enough 

so he ordered us some

problem solved

he didn't like the shower head in his bathroom either. 

naturally he replaced it with one he liked

problem solved.

these are my dad-isms. 

in "his world" problems get solved

im used to it. he's my dad. its a little endearing, pretty funny, and maybe some things even a little annoying. but im used to it,  he's my dad.

i love that he makes my world his, and spoils us rotten all the while

thanks mom and dad for coming to visit

we love you

come again soon!!
