Your Mom Gets An "F"

I was reading My failure as a homeschool mom over at Principled Discovery, and it reminded me of a story. Here is the email that I sent my family...

Today has been one heck of a day. Tracker & Squirrel were on the washing machine(why I don't know). I told them to get off the machine. Next thing I know Tracker is on the ground screaming. When he jumped down he got his foot caught in a tall hamper. Well the hamper went down with him. When I got there his right leg was a t a funny angle. I had to call dh home(he was on duty) so I could take him to the dr. The thing that was bugging me the most was his lower leg. It seemed to be looking funny. Dh agreed and off I went to the dr. We were in there with 7 people that were there for their manadatory drug & alcohol testing. Well, I can safely tell you that everyone of them failed. How would I know....because I have never seen such drunken fools. Anywho, I had to fill out forms and I kept asking Tracker questions...are you a boy or girl? Are you married? How will you pay for this sir? Just really making him laugh. By the time i had finished his forms there was a couple of us laughing out loud.The doctor was great even if he did give me the evil eye when I said we homeschooled. Here is a conversation.. d+doc T=Tracker

d-Tracker does your nose hurt?

T-No why?

D-because your feet smell so bad it hurts to smell it.

(At this T was laughing sooo loud).

d-did I hear right that you fell off of the washer?

T-No my sister pushed me.

d-did you hit her?

T-No, she's smaller than me.

d-oh I guess you can't hit her then.

T-no she is only 5, I'm 7. I am much bigger and stronger.

d-well, she will have a great protector then.

We got some x-rays and they were fine. The X-ray tech was awesome. She told him everything that she was going to do AND even showed him his xrays. She even looked through the discarded ones for a broken bone, but they didn't have any. It turns out that he twisted his knee.

Before we left the doctor and T were talking again. I was not really paying complete attention when I heard: "I guess your mom fails dryer dismount". I am not really sure what was said, but T and the doctor were laughing pretty hard.
