by Teresa K  John was talking on the phone to Sheena. His reply to a comment I did not hear: "Oh, I'm not really into grooming." LOL No kidding. I told him to ask Sheena if she would still love him if he forgot to use soap in the shower or deodorant afterwards. "Oh, Mom!!!!" Later, I asked him about his conversation. Sheena had made a comment about her hair and make-up. What John MEANT to say was, "Appearance is not that important, I love you whether you wear makeup and have your hair fixed or not." Didn't quite come out like that. LOL Teresa Sheena's latest phone conversation was just hysterical. I can not hear what John is saying to her, but I overhear these words from Sheena: "Oh I do handstands all the time!" Ummm, No she doesn't. I look at her sideways. "Sheena, you have never done a handstand!" She said, "Well in water I do!" Okay, good enough, I tell her to explain to John that in WATER, she does handstands. Then, while I'm still laughing, I hear: "Oh yeah, I'm a total rope climber! I climb ropes all day long till the rope hurts my hands!" What is that? LOL Ummm, No Sheena has never climbed a rope! "Sheena! Stop that, you don't climb ropes!" Sheena explains: "Well, I could if the ropes didn't hurt my hands!" "Right - you could if they didn't, but they do, so you do not climb ropes ALL day long. Tell John the truth!" Shortly after this I hear, "Cartwheels are so easy, I totally do them!" Good Lord! No- She doesn't! "Sheena you can not tell someone you know how to do something you do not know how to do! Start being truthful with John and explain you haven't learn yet and you need more practice at these things and then you will know how." I'm ready to die. None of these things are true. I can't even figure out what in the world she is thinking. Finally she says, "I can shoot hoops" (meaning play basketball) Oh My God! No she doesn't, she can't! LOL She practiced once, and bounced the ball three times and gave her self a bloody nose. I explained if she kept telling John things that were not true, I would make her hang up and I would not let her talk to him any more. I tell her, you have one chance, tell the truth next sentence or off the phone. She scrambles. she searches for something she can do sports oriented, but she can' think of anything. She finally thinks her self out and says, "Okay John, I actually just can't do anything!" (refering to sports) She looks at me, with a pondering thought, and says "I said the turth, you can't make me hang up!" LOL Nan |
