I got in my car this morning and smelled the scent of death. After much searching, I found a package of ground beef that I purchased on Tuesday that must have slid out of the grocery bag and never made it inside my house. It had been "cooking" in my trunk for 2 days. Even after discarding that beast I had to drive with windows down and A/C pumping the whole time. And pray that the stench didn't cling to my clothes or hair!
I took my son to the mall for a special ventriloquist/magician show. Show was not so good and within 5-10 minutes in Jackson was laying his head in my lap and asking to leave. We ditched it. After getting some energy out in the tiny play area in the mall, I tried to press my luck and shop in ONE small store. Just one. I had a 20% coupon off of sale items at the Loft, so clearly Anna and I HAD to check to see if any items were calling our names. I spent the next 10 minutes chasing my 3 year old around racks of clothes.
Oh yeah... THAT'S the reason I never go to the mall anymore... He's too big for the stroller and too wiggly to just stand with mommy. So not worth it.

Courtney, I'm so sorry, but I CAN'T stop laughing. That must have been horrible when you realized what the stench was!!! Gross.
That is so funny about the stench! You are not alone . . . I had fruit flies in my car for a few days before I realized I had left grapes from a grocery run under my passenger seat. They were a bag of mush!!! And thanks for the heads up- since Joshua is still in the stroller- I'm going to go to the mall as much as possible while I still can :)
Courtney, I can totally relate, I had a dozen eggs "hide" in my trunk a couple years ago... nothing smells worse than rotten eggs, and of course, like you, it was in the middle of the summer when it happened. I hope you are having a wonderful time on the "family vacation".
Love ya,
Barb
Courtney, same thing happened to me with Eggs... I couldn't figure out where that horrible smell was coming from (actually for a couple days)! YUCK!
Hope you are having a wonderful time on the "family vacation"
Love,
Barb
