Ten things I lied to my husband about -- recently

1. Her Christening dress only cost 200.00.
(It was actually 280.00, plus 20.00 for the shoes, and 12.00 for the bib.)

2. I promise to sell her Christening dress on e-bay after the blessed event.
(I can't bear to part with it, so instead it hangs in her closet. I often go in and just look at it, it's so darn pretty.)

3. I paid that parking ticket forever ago.
(See previous post http://megandmommy.blogspot.com/2005/06/kids-are-costly.html)

4. The party we have to go to on Saturday starts at 2:00pm
(It actually starts at 3, but he's always running late)

5. I had to buy her a new dress for the party because she's outgrowing all of the other ones she has.
(I don't like any of them anymore)

6. The dress was only 9.99 and I had a ten percent off coupon!
(Why I threw in the coupon part, I have no idea...otherwise that one could have been lie-free. I think I am just used to taking 30percent off of all purchase prices)

7. I don't hate your sister-in-law. I just find her challenging.
(I never stop talking about how much I loathe and detest her to all of my friends, my sister, people on the train, my co-workers and anyone in the doctor's office waiting room)

8. (About my new tank top) "It's actuall a camisol to wear under other shirts". (Not true, I will wear it solo)

9. I did't tell your mom about our last fight.
(I tell her about all of them, and she tells me how to deal with him since he is EXACTLY like his father.)
(Except if any of them have anything to do with S-E-X, cause that's just weird.)

10. I am NOT high maintenance!
