Don't judge me, again

Ever had one of those days? I am constantly amazed at the noise level in my house. With the extremely loud boys and crashing cars and toys, and (I adore her....however,) Katelyn has.. let's just say a LOUD voice that carries. ( carries in a horrific way to pierce the center of my ear drum!) Anyhow, it was dinner time and my nerves were shot. I lovingly placed the beef strouganoff on the table with the yummy asiago cheese artisan bread from Harmons bakery and I really wanted to enjoy my meal. I went to my newly organized phone desk drawer and pulled out two of the most beautiful ear plugs I had ever seen. I took my hair out of the poly-tail (for camouflage purposes) and put in the heaven sent noise reduction devices. Dinner was nice. I could still hear everything I needed to all the while my ear drums were protected by my new neon orange friends. Half way through dinner Jared started laughing a little and (he has always been my fav....I mean a great boy) stifled his emotion and kept my dirty little secret. Thanks....there will be a little something extra in your allowance this week Jared!
By the end of the meal, I had had enough quiet and took them out. I highly recommend this to anyone who needs a little less noise in their ears for a moment. Trust me, everything is still loud enough to hear, but stifled enough to enjoy. Try it, you might like it.
