Tattle Tale Tuesday

Today's Tattle Tale Tuesday will be a shock to all of you, so I want you all to take a deep breath and sit down before I tell you my tale. It is with deepest regret that I tell you the following.... Mom is NOT perfect. (No comments from you, Auntie!) Mom is not always great either, as the following picture will testify.

Mom had trouble judging how deep to put the outlets when she re-sheet rocked the walls. Consequently, when mom put the outlet covers on, the outlets were a little further recessed than mom wanted. Oh, electrically everything is fine. It's just that mom is mad that she tried so very hard to get it done well, and it isn't.

And that's not all! See this lamp? This is the lamp that she had to buy Auntie because mom BROKE Auntie's. Mom flipped it over to look at it, to see if she could help Auntie with it, and she snapped it right in half! Oops! So mom replaced it with this one. Auntie likes it. (phew)


And that's not even the end of it. See these photos? Do you think mom could give me a moment's peace for my ahem "necessities"? Nope! Not my mom. Oh, sure she covered up my spot thirteen, but come on, mom. As Monty would say, "Have you no shame, woman?"

What ever am I going to do with her?

The outlets don't look too bad, but I'm sorry they didn't turn out the way your Mom wanted them. It was naughty of her to take pictures of you while you were trying to have a nice scratch, Roxy.

Thank you for your comment that my limericks help with the sadness of losing our friends. Writing them helps me and I'm glad that reading them helps others.

We're sorry the outlets didn't turn out the way your mom wanted. But then again you're lucky and have such funny outlets that look like little surprised faces. Tee hee...

We love the blue wall so much we don't even NOTICE what's wrong with the outlets ... so we guess no one else will either.

Judging by the photo, the outlet looks fine to me!

Hello Beautiful Roxy!
I don't think the outlets look bad at all! Most of ours don't even have covers! BOL! Moms are always takeing pictures! They don't care what your doing, sleeping, scratching, taking a poo, they think everything is cute & want it ALL on camera! I mean my Mommy hasn't took a picture of me while pooing or nothing, but...you know moms!

We're kinda glad to hear your mom's not perfect. Makes us feel a little better about ourselves. ;-)

Even though you mom is not perfect, she is still pretty darn cool (even if the outlets are uneven)!
