Aaron’s Talking Points #7

Here are more of Aaron’s comments that I have collected over the years.  Enjoy!

 

Aaron told me that the other night he had one of Andrea’s hairs on his toothbrush. “Mom, some of Andrea’s hair leaked onto the counter and got on my toothbrush!”

It’s a good thing he doesn’t keep his toothbrush in my bathroom because my head leaks lots of hairs!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aaron: Mom! Did you know there’s an OLD Robocop movie that was around when Dad was around?!

I didn’t tell Aaron, but I think Gary is still around. I’m running down now to check, though, just in case he knows something I don’t know.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aaron got a little choked during supper. His observation:

“I swallowed it down the wrong throat!”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aaron saw the news and pictures of the nuclear reactor fires in Japan. So he asked, “Mom, what are those ball buildings?”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aaron also saw a nuclear physicist being interviewed. This man had some wild gray hair, much like Einstein, so Aaron got excited and asked, “Mom!! Isn’t that the guy that invented…….oh, what was it?………H2O?”

Ummm….No, Aaron. Different formula. Same hair, though.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aaron and I were just watching the news. A special segment came on about Michael Jackson. Aaron said, “Hey, I know some of Michael’s dance moves. Want me to show you?”

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aaron is almost as concerned with the weather as he is with keeping correct times. When time and weather collide…well, hold on!!

Aaron asked me on Thursday night when it was going to rain, as he does nearly every night. I told him that we might get some storms over the weekend. Silly me.

Aaron: When will it storm?

Me: Maybe Sunday evening.

Aaron: When is evening?

And before I could form a reasonable answer:

Aaron: What time is evening?

And again before I could answer:

Aaron: Is evening lunch time?

Me: No, not lunch time. It’s…

Aaron: Is it supper time?

Me: YES!!!! It’s around supper time.

Aaron: So it will storm at 5:00?

AAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!

My plan is to keep a close eye on The Weather Channel, Weather Bug, MyRadar app, AccuWeather, KAKE Weather, KWCH Weather, and 101.3 storm chasers. At the first inkling of a storm here, we are eating supper. I don’t care what time it is, we will eat supper, people!!!!!! 🤣😬💦💨🌩️⛈️⚡

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Last night Aaron wasn’t sure that he wanted to wear green today. “I don’t want to look like a vegetable!” he said. Well, he had four seizures last night so he didn’t get to go to his day group today. I have been counting my blessings today, and one is for Aaron…..that he didn’t have to go out today looking like a vegetable!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aaron told me that today he was walking downtown with his group and saw a German restaurant. He looked in the window (poor patrons!) and said that he saw bottles of wine. “So Mom, is that what Germans like for food? Wine?!! Is that all they eat?”

Maybe we should go and check it out!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Every time Aaron and I go to Dillon’s he must, if possible, stop by the fresh fish and seafood display. He loves seeing the shrimp, the lobster, the crab legs, and anything else that’s there. Today there was a surprise! Two whole fish!! Aaron was so thrilled that he pushed himself in front of a little family as he exclaimed loudly:

“MOM!! LOOK!! He’s all fish!!!” 😂😂🐟

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Aaron: Mom! If I had a clone, it would be the same of me.

Me: That’s a great way to put it, Aaron!

Aaron: Would you want a clone of me?

Me: NO!! I mean, no.

Aaron: Why not?

Me: Because ONE OF YOU IS ENOUGH!!!

Aaron: OK.

He just walked off with no reaction. Oh, the tragedy of so much wasted sarcasm in this house!! 😆😆💙💙

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And we’ll have more of the same of these Aaron Talking Points!

Trust me!  😊  😊

  1. Patty it is good to accept joy when we can find it, between leaking hair, looking like a vegetable, and the exact timing of storms, at least life isn’t boring. 😊🌧

  2. Smiles. These really made me smile. There is much sarcasm. 😁
    Especially the “….wrong throat”. These too – I don’t want to look like vegetable and ” He’s all fish”. 😁
    I hope there was no storm eventually?. 😊
    Stay safe. 🤗

    1. I’m glad they made you smile. I love sharing that side of Aaron! I don’t remember about the story because it was sometime back, but we probably did get one. He love storms, though, so he’s always happy if there’s a storm but not so happy if the electricity goes out. 😬 Thanks for reading, my friend.
