Guest Post: Dear Someone

Hello everyone. I'm probably sleeping in right now. So, Amanda (shortmama) from Family of Shorts is filling in for me today. She's super awesome and does "Dear Someone" letters every Thursday on her blog. From time to time, I join in on those. Stop by her blog and let her know how awesome she is.

Hiya everyone! This is shortmama from Family of Shorts filling in for Steph sucker!. Every Thursday on my blog I do Dear Someone letters, basically writing anything to anyone...happy, sad, funny, rude...whatever floats my boat that week! Feel free to stop by my blog sometime and join in! Here we go...

Dear Mother Nature,

Please take the estrogen that I got you for your menopause. The hot flashes are unbearable. The pills may also take care of that "dryness" problem youve been having. So please return to a normal body temperature and let some wetness come our way.

Your burning up over here friend, Amanda

Dear sleep,

Why must you be so cruel? So nonexistant? Please come back! Im going to bed at a normal time and getting up bright and early to get Rhiannon off to school, Im doing everything right! Now get yourself over here right now! Meet me in my bed at 10pm, got it?

Me so sleepy

Dear laundry,

Quit breeding while I attempt that whole sleeping thing. Maybe its you that is keeping me up at night...hmmmm.

Washing and drying and folding and hanging...blah

Me

Dear my girlies,

Watching the two of you play freeze dance is hilarious. Rhiannon that rump shaking is a bit risqué but funny all the same. And Layla you are about 5 seconds behind on the whole freeze thing, but completely adorable. You exercise my belly with all the laughing I do...and Lord knows I could use all the belly exercise I can get.

Abs of steel...ok not even close

Mama

Dear Steph,

I hope you still had all the readers you had before you let me guest post. I tried not to scare anyone away..but well ya know I am kinda scary...all 5 feet of me.

Thats all for this week! Normally I would include a linky for all of you to write your letters and join in but since Im not on my blog I thought that might be confusing, so if you did letters just let us know in the comments so we can visit and read yours. And if you want to participate in Dear Someone letters next week just hope on over to my blog every Thursday! Peace.

Dear Someone

Today I'm linking up with Short Mama at Family of Shorts and participating and Dear Someone letter.

Dear Matt,

I'm sorry you've been sick. I did everything I could to make you feel better. I even made homemade chicken noodle soup for you per your request. I'm even more sorry that you have to sleep in a tent this weekend. Yes, I will miss you while you are at drill but let's try to remember the alternative here. I'd much rather be without you for 4 nights and 5 days than 428 days again. Have fun and shoot some cardboard terrorists for me. I'll have your favorite dinner cooked when you get home.

Your loving wife
Steph

Dear Ozzy,

Yes, I know daddy is gone. He will be back soon. I miss him too, but you don't have to whine all night long. You don't have to bark when a car drives by. And when it's time to leave to go to Grandma's in the morning, get your tail out of bed. Do you know how bad I feel when I have to drag you out from under the covers to leave? I know mommy's car isn't as cool as daddy's big truck, but we have to get moving in the mornings.

I still love you,
Mommy

Dear Car,

What is your definition of "soon" as in, "Service Engine Soon"? Why must you wait to turn that light on until 12 hours after my hubby leaves? He warned me it came on the other day but never for me until this morning. You dirty rat !#@$!@#. I will take you to Autozone and see why the light is on, but you are going to have to hold out until Monday.

Dear College Algebra,

You are lucky I'm not totally lost yet and still getting an A. No one cares about linear equations or graphing parabolas except for maybe engineers or architectures. I'm going to be neither. Please don't get too much harder or I'll be done for.

Yours Truly,
The girl who leaves class every Monday and Wednesday with a headache.
