Sneezyone Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) My child was at a "birthday party" and the 18yo driver wanted to "socialize" more. I threatened to call an Uber or leave the house in my mumu to retrieve my child so she would be curfew compliant. The driver agreed to return my child. Lessons have been learned. Discussions will be had. Edited February 13, 2022 by Sneezyone 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drama Llama Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 I definitely belong on this thread more than the “no rules” thread. Gonna use my mumu for enforcing all the rules. 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grace Hopper Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 It was meltdown day here, I finally took a shower and exchanged a rumpled mumu for a clean one. Well ok they were just nightgowns but I’m gonna claim mu to the second power because I’ll need it in the morning. Just a whole pot of smallish stressors reached the boiling point, finally got my tearful teen to sleep. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was, seriously, a 16 Candles event in a wealthy neighborhood. The tea is pouring forth, both amusing and ridiculous. Now, finally, I can go to bed!

Harriet Vane Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 (edited) The threat of the mumu reminds of when Ree's mom knocked on the window of Marlboro Man's truck when Ree and MM were um, "talking," in Marlboro Man's truck in the driveway: "Worse--it was my mother. And she was wearing her gray cashmere robe." *From Black Heels to Tractor Wheels Edited February 13, 2022 by Harriet Vane 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SKL Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 LOL I need a mumu to threaten my kids with. (Though the threat of me showing up in just my long johns and t-shirt seems to be working so far.) I have to chuckle at "it's almost midnight." If I'm ever in bed before midnight, it's because I'm sick or pulled an all-nighter the previous night. 😛 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenmom5 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 When I do it's because my cortisol is high. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairfarmhand Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Well my dh sleeps in his boxers and a T-shirt and I’m sure it would be just as effective as the muumuu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
