Industry

I started filling out my blog profile this evening. The "Industry" choice was so funny! Mom and homemaker aren't choices, but I was determined to pick something: Am I in the arts? Well, today, no... but the fisherman, the snowman, the snowflake, the airplane and the rocketship I painted on the children's feet yesterday all came off in the bath today (thankfully the children remembered that this happens now. The first time, they freaked and thought there were crazy monster bugs floating in the bathtub!). Am I in accounting? I try to be on Thursday during "rest time"... that's budget and the "big nasty" which is the drawer of bills and correspondence to be gotten to. Chemicals? Yes, I'm very familiar with chemicals; ibuprofen, tylenol, benadryl, neosporin, aloe vera. Though I majored in chemistry in college, the main chemical reactions I study currently are between Oxy Clean and blackberry stains. The reaction is quite remarkable, the purple turns black and then is gone! I am still doing research to find what will remove watermelon stains. I do know that Grease Lightening is swell on Eric's oil and grease-stained work pants after a day working on the Jeep.

Am I in Construction? Am I ever in construction... you should see the towers I can create out of oyster crackers, let alone our colored blocks.

I am the chief consultant in the house. Or I must be. I am expected to provide answers to all manners of questions.... how airplanes, helicopters and buildings are made, what an astronaut does after he goes to the moon, and where he keeps the tools he needs to fix the engine of his space ship. And those were just this weeks' questions.

I think perhaps this week Law Enforcement/ Security would be the best pick.
