The butcher

One day I was trying to cut a frozen 3lb ground beef that I had conveniently forgotten to separate into freezer bags the day I brought it home when it was fresh. Jim was walking through the kitchen and saw me having some trouble and asked if I wanted some help. He gave it a go and wasn't getting anywhere. He puts the knife down and says he'll be right back. And before I can say a word he is back with the saw and cuts that baby in a few seconds. Of course I whip out the camera cause who does this. I just said thank you and was happy it was apart. (girls maybe we need to consider having a saw as part of our kitchen tools - in pink right?! I also cooked the meat extra loooong, so the sloppy joe's were a bit on the dry side if that is even possible. This is just one of the moments that I have chalked up as "my life is a sitcom". Some of the others include the father-in-law who washes his car in rain and sprays the leafs off the lawn in a wind storm(I do say this lovingly just so you know). The mother-in-law who washes dishes so fast that you aren't even done eating, get up to get seconds, and your cup and plate mysteriously disappear and you have to get another one. We don't' get to use a cup twice in a day. Needless to say we run the dishwasher A LOT. And the great grandma who is 93 is sleeping on the couch. And if the baby starts crying in the night waddles down the hall to make sure we heard that the baby was crying. I'm not saying I don't love my life, I'm just saying there are some funny things!
