9pm

We went racing and came home safe... Kameron took a 5th in Intermediate and Kieffer took a 3rd in Novice...

There was tons of traffic coming home... Holidays I guess...  We had to take my car [Excursion] to tow the trailer because the truck is leaking oil all over and has to go into the shop on Monday... Grrr....

Guess who is coming at 7am in the morning... My old housekeeper Marta... I will open the door, hug her and wait for her to drop dead of a heart attack...

OMG I just remembered a story about her...

She started working for us when Kieffer was a newborn... [September 1991]

One day she comes to me really worried

"Kendra, the baby is cold..."

I look at him, feel him... Kieffer was fine...

"No he is ok, why do you think the baby is cold?"

"Look" and she shows me his skin...

I start laughing

"Marta... the baby is not cold... the baby is white!" 

She thought because you could see through his skin the baby was cold... no the baby was white 

[you know how white babies skin is kinda translucent and Hispanic babies are not]

Anyway... I thought that was so funny...

GOD Kendra you and your WHITE, COLD babies. LOL. Yes, Kyan has a nice color thank you very much thanks to me because John sure didn't help in that department.  Poor Marta she will have a heart attack when she sees the laundry. Hope you have lots of detergent and supplies that will take a whole day or two on it's own.
Take care, Chrissie
