It’s
always a risk to take St. Bob into public, but not for the reasons you might
suspect. It’s because he gets me
laughing until I cry, fall down, or both.
Luckily,
this time I had a chair.
I had been
invited to the annual Sacramento Women’s Expo last Saturday, since I appear
frequently on Good Day Sacramento as the YouTube Mom. And it was great fun greet many of my viewers
and subscribers, as well as to run a few of my “life hack” videos, as well.
St. Bob,
of course, always helps me schlep in all my props, a tremendous help. But then he sits there and gets me laughing
until my face is so red I appear to be choking to death.
One of my
videos shows you how to tell if a loaf of bread is fresh by checking the color
of the little plastic tag on the bag (see it here). Each color stands for a day
of the week, and the colors are in alphabetical order.
So St. Bob
gets the ingenious idea to make a nose ring out of a bread tag. Yes, folks, this is how his brain works. And, of course, he thinks it’s ingenious
because it’s completely free, interchangeable with other colors, and one size
fits all.
Suddenly I
can picture an entire Alzheimers’ home filled with seniors wearing these nose
rings so everyone will know what day of the week it is (Oh—look at all the blue
nose rings! It must be Monday!) and my
husband will be hailed as a trendsetter.
And that,
my friends, is why he gets Saint status. (By the way, I want to say, “Don’t try
this at home,” but surely you’re smart enough not to do this!)
