It Does Not Count

 It seems to me that I need to CALRIFY what counts and what does not count as doing something. The Tech Monkey and Airborne have seemed to lost track of the real meaning of stuff so here goes mom rant #275

If you have not got your pants zipped, your shoes on, and your lunch made, it DOES NOT COUNT as being ready to leave for school.

If you grab a pop tart on the way out the front door, it DOES NOT COUNT as making your lunch.
 
If you watched me make dinner, it DOES NOT COUNT as helping mom make dinner.

If you put four plates on the table with no silver ware no napkins and no glasses, it DOES NOT Count as setting the table.

If you rinse one dish, put it in the dish washer leaving a sink full of dishes and don't START the dish washer, it DOES NOT COUNT as washing the dishes.

 If you eat a four course meal in the middle of the night it DOES NOT COUNT as a midnight snack.( Seriously clean up after yourself Techie)

If you fill the bathtub with hot water, leave it there for 4 hours then drain the tub, it DOES NOT COUNT as cleaning the tub.

If it does not involve soap on your body it DOES NOT COUNT as bathing.


If you take a shower in the evening and put on a shirt to go to bed, it DOES NOT COUNT as still clean and appropriate to wear to church.

If you drink my ENTIRE glass of water leaving the glass completely empty and walk away, it DOES NOT count as "sharing" with me.

If you put an item of clothing, that has been on the floor of your room for a week, in the dryer or spray it with Fabreeze, it DOES NOT COUNT as doing your laundry. Warm does not equal clean.

If you strangle, smother, or in any other way constrict the ability to breath of another person, it DOES NOT COUNT as a "hug".
