At the bank the other day, I know can you believe I decided to actually go to one? Hadn't been to one in years...but I needed to go to the teller b/c I had lost my check/atm card and needed money.
Anyhow, Athena is asking ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY questions (those who have met her know that I am understating that number) about the transaction, who she is, what she is doing, what am I doing, what's the suburban next to us doing, etc. We begin to drive off (as Athena yells from her window..."Thank you, tube lady"!! and this conversation ensues...
ABA- is she staying there?
me-yes, she works there.
ABA-works there?
me-yeah, like daddy works.
ABA-daddy works in downtown, not here.
me-true, but, well, everyone works and has some sort of job.
ABA- is that her job? I'm the trash helper in class this week.
me- well, she works at the bank. She helps people like me get to their money. She sends it in the tube.
ABA- oh. i want to work.
me- you do? where do you want to work?
ABA- ummmm. Subway.
me- Subway?
ABA- yes.
me- why do you want to work at subway?
ABA- so I can help people make choices.
me- choices? like what?
ABA- white or wheat? and what kind of cheese they want.
Shall I go and deposit the college fund back at the bank, I ask myself.

- "is this what you do all day" I have been asked, and I have to say "why, no of course not". (roll eyes and try to think of what exactly it is I do all day if it isn't kid or cuteness related). All new to the mom thing and to the blogging thing so I decided to merge them together as seamlessly as possible. Mother of two chicas and wife to an incredible hombre. Got a toddler's eye view of the world and lol'ing my way through it. I am a Stay At Home Psychotherapist and Cheesecake maker. Both exceptionally similar to me :) I travel extensively (mentally) and even have frequent flier miles to prove it.

LOL! Don't worry. At her age, my big ambition was to be a school bus driver.
Athena is a giver. ;)
I was a 'tube lady' once. LOVED working the drive-thru. Except this on time, when one of our tellers was robbed in the lobby. The lobby closed, but the drive-thru stayed open. So wasn't fair. ;D
Love the giving choices like white or wheat. lol
Well you know what mines wants to be but she hasn't decided what paying job she wants to have. ;)

better than aspiring to the pole.
My kid sister worked at Subway for a year. The horror stories she can tell about the bathrooms there...
Dear God, that was awesome.
Lana wants to be a flaming hula hoop performance artist. I knew I never shoulda taken her to that show!
