Cold weather here. Didn't get all the nasty winter mix that the news was predicting, but our temps did dip into the 20's. Pulled out the heater Jon bought me last year and Stevie has it in the doorway between his room and the sewing room...kind of keeps us both toasty. Only trouble is he feels the cold more than I do...so he keeps cranking it up and I keep turning it down. Finally knocked the Bah Humbugs off long enough to go and buy a Christmas tree...even strung the lights on it. Kids got it decorated while I wrapped up what I had already purchased.
Jamie had non stop Christmas music playing on the radio...I can feel those Humbugs creeping back up on me :-) I kept hearing noises and comments from Stevie's room.

"Dang. Shoot. Aw man."

 I look into his room and see him jumping around and bending over. Pretty much normal goofy behavior. Finally he comes in and plops himself down while I fold laundry.

"Um...Mom...you know that heater you gave me? How come I can't light farts with it?"

Heaven help me! I laughed so hard that now I am dealing with an asthma attack :-) Wish I had a hidden camera.
The real humor with our little episode...is that it is an entirely enclosed oil heater...you know, the roll around type...no open flames...and the child was totally dressed :-) I laughing explained he had the concept right but he needed to work on the mechanics...ROFLOL.
