you know you're in trouble when...

[la_rainette]

...a two-hour appointment at the dentist's seems like a wonderful opportunity to put your feet up and relax.

Quebec was wonderful and I have much to tell, but it'll have to wait, I have too many to do right now. Such as, buy more envelopes. Because Papy bought 110 envelopes altogether.

All of them too bloody small.

In the meanwhile: see the ugly pink backpack with a ludicrously happy Barbie on it? We've carried it non stop since last Wednesday.

Whoever is first to guess the main item it contains will get a Special Chocolat Shipment. And no, I won't give you any hints. Coz if you don't guess, I'll eat the chocolate myself *slightly predatory smile*.

Envelopes? Air? Headless Barbie? Barbie Head?

C'mon, have pity on a woman who will soon lose the ability to chew for an undetermined amount of time. Dental Solidarity! *smiles sweetly*

*winces* ooo, yes, you do have my sympathy. (says she who spent next to a week eating only chocolate under the fallacious pretext that "it melts in my mouth, do I can eat it even though I cannot chew")

Hum. I think I'll send you some chocolat anyway, even though you don't have the right answer. Cos you certainly deserve it ;) *Glances lovingly to beautiful pictures with little girls*

YAY!

Welcome back! I'm gonna go for... toilet paper. :D Or, diapers? Something related to the Tadpole Problem.

You're close, Tai. Very, very close ;)

Close?

I'm going to go not for snacks, nor for Tadpole-emergency supplies, but something you bought and cannot now live without. Or even more ludicrous, something you bought for pappy, cannot fit into a suitcase, and are forced to tote with you everywhere in that oh-so-pretty backpack.

Re: Close?

LOL! Nope, although that certainly makes a lot of sense.

Yay, You're back. So my guess is big girl underwear. In case of Tadpole accidents?
I can't wait to hear all about Quebec.

[la-rainette.livejournal.com]

You're close, too. :D And they did figure in there. But it's not the main item... ;)

how big is this bag? Could it hold a mini-potty seat? (wow you know I've been around kids to long when that pops into my head)

[la-rainette.livejournal.com]

SHE WINS!!!!!! She's got it right, folks. The backpack contains, indeed - more than just a mini-potty seat, a full Big Blue Plastic Potty. Tadpole's potty.

Chocolate coming your way, my friend *beams*

The Potty's Story, and new of our travels around Quebec, will be up tomorrow, hopefully.

*dies laughing* That's too fantastic for words. *hugs* I love that you traveled all over the place with your own potty. If I didn't have so many friends who are parents I would look at you oddly, but I know. I know what it's like. I have now found myself praising the use of the potty.
At the library the other day one of the little girls disappeared. Her mother and I didn't notice at first since we were talking and she can't get out without us seeing her. Anyway she comes running back and her mother asks "where did you go?" "oh I had to go potty." That mom was floored. She just looked at me with this expression of total happiness. Finally!!

:D Oh, and I'm glad to be back. I've missed you guys.
