The Truth is- That since I started doing "The Truth is Wed" I will have conversations with people or things will happen and they will say "Hey, you should use that in your truths!" For example....

The Truth is- that in the past few weeks a few different people have told me out of nowhere that Preston looks like Jimmy. Personally I don't see it. I'm not trying NOT to see it, I just don't see it. And normally I would think that Jimmy told them to tell me that Preston looks like him as a joke, but he doesn't even know one of the people who have said that! He think's it's pretty funny and said "hey, you should use that as a truth." Consider it done.

The Truth is- I think I've been playing too much Mario Kart lately. I say this because we'll be driving around and I'll see someone on a motorcycle and I'll think to myself "I wonder how that bike is on speed vs. acceleration" or wonder why they aren't bumping into people to push them out of the way, like on Mario Kart. But then I'll remember we're in the real world now. Might be time to cut back.

The Truth is- That Preston can say "mama". But it doesn't count because he doesn't know he's saying mama. Mostly he'll do it when he's crying or getting whiny. But it's just sounds he makes. He doesn't associate it with me. Which is sad, but also brings up the issue of can that really be his first word if he doesn't know he is saying it??

The Truth is- Everytime I smell or make Top Ramen I think of University of Phoenix. SO many people (myself included) would eat Top Ramen for lunch there b/c it was simple and quick and you didn't have to wait in line to use one of the 3 microwaves they had. But I haven't been able to eat Top Ramen since leaving UOP. I smell it and think of work. Then I think of how much sodium is in it. Lose lose situation.

The Truth is- I'm not a good Hobby Lobby shopper. I go in and completely forget all crafts that I'm working on and what I need or don't need. I never have a list. Or measurements of what I need. Or anything really. Except the weekly coupon! I always have that! Which is how I ended up with no glue sticks, 2 extra bottle of sea foam blue acrylic paint and needing to buy fabric but having no idea how much I needed. The store just overwhelms me! Moral of the story: Make a list before you go to Hobby Lobby. And always check next door at Dollar General before making purchases at Hobby Lobby.
(btw, that conversation happened with someone who also said "you can use it as a truth!")

Yes I was one who said p-bibby (as in baby. It's a new nickname) looks like Jimmy. Also, so true abut HB. And I play Minesweeper and Tetris in my mind at night because I play them so much.
