Easter eggs

Babysat niece and nephew so sister could get work done 2 days in a row. 1st day colored Easter eggs. Nephew asked why his mommy cooked the eggs. Beisdes the danger of the eggs breaking, we don't eat raw eggs. They taste better cooked. I added too much water so we got our fingers stained. Next we had a movie marathon until my sister came home to put the kids to bed. Nephew doesn't like watching anything new, but I make him watch new stuff. If he doesn't like it, then he play with his toys. Niece had to lay on the floor while nephew was playing golf (which he calls hockey). Niece complained that she got hit with the ball and nephew complain to get out of his way. I grabbed the ball, tossed further down the room and told nephew problem was solved.

2nd day, I didn't want to cook so picked up greasy chicken. I commented if the babysitter's dog could smell the greasy chicken on me. Babysitter asked if I just got off work. No, I said, I bought it. Kids loved the chicken. Brother-in-law called expecting my sister and I explained when she will be home. Nephew cried for his mommy and brother-in-law replied not to call her (they will cry more after hearing her voice). Decided to watch TV instead of movies. Nephew and niece picked a show each and then I took over so they would play. And play they did. SO much play that they trashed niece's room, which my sister made them pick up before bedtime snack. I got rid of some pennies that don't go into vending machines and donated them to the kids' piggy banks. They were so happy getting money.

At work, a little girl almost pulled a fire alarm. Her mother yelled at her to stop and come here before it went off. That would be exciting to explain to the manager wondering why the alarm is screeching. Hopefully the sprinkers wouldn't drown us w/out an actual fire. Life goes on.
