Is this the laziest man ever???:)

We are just planning to start designing our T shirts ready for the next show and Rosie wants to actually design them (what have you started Pophammy?

). Now our hamster and computer room is a loft conversion and Rosie was in the living room.

Bramble's Dad said "Do you want me to call her?"
Me "yes please".....
.....5 minute wait - Bramble's Dad hasn't moved from the chair...so I get up to call her when he says..
"I've called her"
Me "No you haven't"
BD "Yes I have - I just texted her"

30 seconds later Rosie appears

I don't know whether that makes him lazy or just incredibly clever to text a teenager when in the same house?? What do you think?

Hahah

You're right, it's lazy but clever too

**Spuds Mum** · 10-07-2007, 01:22 PM

Well as she normally doesn't hear me when I call her I think I may start that as well!
*tut teenagers*

lol I never hear when my mum shouts me so she ends up coming upstairs

Pophammy has a favourite phrase. It is 'in a minute'.
In Pophammys world a minute is a lot longer than in my world

**Spuds Mum** · 10-07-2007, 01:45 PM

In any teenager's world a minute is as long as it takes you to just do whatever you wanted them to do yourself

Bless Rosie is really good (as I am sure are PH & Jane) but sometimes I shout her upstairs and she ignores me so I shout again (no louder - exactly the same) "Abby/Emma is at the door"

and she is down in 10 seconds!

(at which time I then tell her what I meant to say was "pick your coat up from the floor"

It's the same in a 10 year old's world as well :P

Haha, I tend to use that phrase... a lot... perhaps too much :P

How about "I'm just doing it" for any task that someone has asked a teenager to do for the last hour/day/week????

It is amazing - I am awful because whenever I nag Rose to do something she was "just going to do it"
