Smart Jana

Those of you who know me know that I'm a pretty smart person. I am a smart person - I got good grades in school (with the exception of calculus - but really, who in the world needs calculus in the real world? Besides, I have Dave - he's a math wizard). I got good grades in college. I'm smart. I'm not trying to brag or be conceited, I'm just putting it out there - I know who I am and I'm not going to pretend to be someone I'm not, so there it is...

Sometimes, though, I do something that leads me to think, "Where in the world did Smart Jana go?" Here are two examples from today...

* We were going to have the Fulmer's over for dinner tonight (and have cancelled since the big P came lurking). I was going to make cream of brocolli soup and bread bowls so I bought 4 loaves of frozen bread. I figured they would need some time to thaw so I took them out of the freezer two nights ago and put them in the refrigerator. Guess what? They rise in the refrigerator, too... Okay smart Jana - what were you thinking? (obviously I was thinking that they needed more time to thaw and they wouldn't rise in the cold - not so smart).

* Right after the bread dough escapade I took the girls upstairs to help me clean the toilet in our bathroom. They eached helped me brush the toilet. Ryann was taking her turn and I had to run downstairs to grab one more thing and told Ryann "Keep the brush in the toilet." I came back upstairs to find water all over the floor - oh, she kept the brush in the toilet but she did a fantastic job of swirling and splashing the water all around so there was some sort of tsunami in the bathroom:) Smart Jana - Brilliant, in fact.

I do believe that each pregnancy has drained more and more of my brain, which is yet another reason why we can't have any more kids.
