What She Does When She's Bored | Chickens in the Road

She’s bored! Bored bored bored! Nothing to do. In spite of the 200 satellite TV channels, Nintendo DS, computer, 5000 cats, two dogs, and acres of woods and streams.

Bored!!!

So she painted her face. Then she painted her jeans. Her new jeans. With permanent markers.

She’s not bored anymore, ha!

We planted: green beans, carrots, spinach, onions, corn, squash, peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, and assorted herbs and flowers.

You?

I love spring!

LOL—oh that is too good! And she doesn’t look to be three anymore!!! Oh man, I thought there was hope. My youngest just took permanent marker to our entry way which of course we just finished painting… :eek: guess he figured he was helping….

My 5yo is bored too. He came home from playing with the neighbor girl. “Hi Mom! I apparently didn’t have a good time!”

Must hide the picture of your daughter’s face art from him.

Yeah, I’m with the mommies who were hoping it was a phase they’d get over. *sigh*

Yep. . . I’m really looking forward to 2.5 months at home with a bored teenager and two active preschoolers. Perhaps we should move to the country and I could put them to work!Ha!

"It was a cold wintry day when I brought my children to live in rural West Virginia. The farmhouse was one hundred years old, there was already snow on the ground, and the heat was sparse-—as was the insulation. The floors weren’t even, either. My then-twelve-year-old son walked in the door and said, “You’ve brought us to this slanted little house to die." Keep reading our story....
