Mickey Mouse

I admit that I’m intrigued with Mickey Mouse. The little magical rodent that wears the white gloves seems to make mommy smile and therefore that makes me happy. I do admit that she goes over board at times. I’m not saying all of the time – but there have been a few times that I’ve had to second guess her decisions.  You’re probably asking yourself what I mean by that statement.  Let me show you a few examples to clarify what I mean.

A good example –

Mommy bought stock in the Walt Disney Company.  This was definitely a great example of something good.  She bought in cheap and it has been religiously going up every since.  She even gets a dividend check every December.  The check is not much by any means but at least she’s getting a check and not paying anything out, right?

She has her stock certificate all nicely bounded and framed.  It’s hanging in her office behind her desk. A lot of people inquire about it and make comments.  No one is shocked because well it’s Disney.

.

In the frame on the bottom, is a small plaque that daddy had made special.  Can you read it in the picture to the right here?  Sweet huh?

Mom also has a big thing on the Seven Dwarfs.  A little tidbit for you – mom has all Seven Dwarfs here at the Hotel Thompson.  They are about 3.5 feet tall each.

That is definitely a story for another time.  That’s my mommy – Disney crazy.  Of course, daddy just says she is keeping her stock going up in value.

Another good decision –

Mommy went to the store one time and found Mickey Mouse shaped cheese.  Now this is awesome and I agree with it wholeheartedly.  It’s fun to eat.  I prefer to eat the ears first and work my way down.  I know – it’s sick but I like it.  One time, she also found Mickey Mouse shaped hamburger patties.  I bet that was hard for the cows to make huh?  But they were fun too, especially with the little wedges of cheese.  And when she fixed hamburgers with the beef and cheese, she cut her bread with the Mickey Mouse bread cutter.  That was a fun night for dinner.

Now, a bad decision –

If you’ve read my blog in the past, you might have heard me mention that mommy has a tattoo.  First of all, you have to know mommy.  She is as straight-laced as they come.  When people find out she has a tat, they are amazed.  Heck, I know I was when I first saw it.  WOW mom – you went all out there huh?

I agree it’s different and does show her love towards the mouse.  Every tattoo has some meaning and hers does as well.  And it’s some place where the normal person would not see it unless mommy wanted them too.

So there you go, good decisions vs bad decisions.  I’m not saying mommy’s tattoo is a bad decision.  It was strictly up to her and I do somewhat find it fascinating.  I think it’s the brilliant colors.  Even though she has had it for years, the color is still so bright.  I was able to snap this picture the other day when she came out of the shower.  It is totally mom.  And with knowing mommy has a tattoo, snorts – there’s not much she can say when I come home with my very own tat. 🙂

Hope you had fun with my posting.  Have you ever made good decisions vs bad decisions?
