Dad was in a huge hurry to get to work this morning. He was in charge of opening the pharmacy at 9am. He said all his girls as he calls them would be waiting at the front door to get in. He quickly stopped by the house this morning to show me how to cook his chicken, pasta stars, and pork chop soup In the crockpot. I appreciate him taking the time to do that as that was always an endearing soup when I was growing up. I just have filled my large thermos full of the steaming hot and mouthwatering “pork chop soup.”
I also seriously need to get a sign on my door that says I sleep during the day and work third shift. I even had the Jehovah's witnesses vying for my attention at one point today. They were some of the most methodical and organized Jehovah's witnesses I have ever encountered including a Lincoln town car as a getaway car for transportation. Surely, I would have to put on some pants to fight these foes off my front porch!
Sadly, My Momma Still Dresses Me…
And yes, all my clothes are from Walmart. Mom went to work this afternoon buying me new Spring and Summer clothes. This was completely going against the burly, rugged, individualistic and independent male figurehead I was trying to portray and develop lately. She even had a tape measure to measure my waist and inseam to add insult to injury.

sleeping is hard when u work 3rd shift! Soup sounds good.
Take care, Andrew!
Even burly, rugged, individual and independent male figureheads have no idea how things look in a mirror. The alternative is to write it down and buy always the same.
Hey, free clothes are free clothes! :D
it's ok for men to have their clothes bought for them, otherwise most would just look like lumber jacks at all times. Now my mum still buys my clothes for me and i'm female we're supposed to be into buying clothes.
Happy birthday my dear friend. Another year has passed and look how you have grown. You are a man on his own and taking care of himself now and isn't that what you have always wanted? I am so proud that you toughed out your setbacks and were able to give yourself the gift of independence. You are amazing, I know you don't think so but we sure do. I hope today is quiet and enjoyable for you. You deserve the happiest of birthdays.
Laughing at your JW comments. You know if you DON'T put on pants, they might leave you alone. ;)
Happy Birthday!
Trouble is, if you do let everyone know you work the third shift, you are almost inviting burglars!!
You just can't win when you have to sleep in the daytime...
The trouble with us Moms is that we never stop being Moms. It's ingrained in us from the moment we give birth. No matter how old or independent you are, your Mom is still going to want to do for you. You're so lucky to have her! Oh, and...HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
Happy Birthday Andrew!
Happy birthday. My husband sometimes needs an intervention on his clothing choices, but then, he's red-green color blind. :-)
Happy Birthday Johnathon!
Have a great birthday!!! Since you're probably a typical guy who hates clothes shopping just think of your mother as doing you a big favor.
Happy birthday to you. I hope that you have a great day.
Happy birthday Jonathon. I hope you celebrated!
Your post titles have been hilarious lately. :)
Happy Birthday Andrew....That soup sounds good... I know other folk who are as old as you (Male & Female)who still dont like buying their own clothes..Until my oldest son left home he always asked me to go with him when he brought clothes...now his wife goes..but i dont think he would bother if he had to go alone...so youur certainly not alone in that.
