Distractions while Driving

I must say with 5 kids in sports and school and with social lives and the fact that we live in the country, I do a lot of driving. That being said there are plenty of distractions in the vehicle. Some distractions are loud and boisterous outbursts, while others are of the silent but deadly variety.

Last night we were driving home and someone claimed they smelled something. Denial filled the air along with an unfavourable aroma. I said, maybe it is the mill.

Then when we were just about home the smell hit again. We were 13km from the mill at this point and all fingers pointed toward Noah. He "took credit" for what he had done and blamed it on the fact that he had McDonald's for supper and that he hadn't had that in a long time, so his body wasn't used to it. Dom indicated that McDonald's does not seem to disagree with his gastronomical system, but he goes there once a week with Nanny for lunch.

To use a word that Zach created, the smell of Noah's little bomb effumulated within the cabin of the vehicle. Everyone expressed their disgust and Dom added that if he "lit a match in here we would all blow up."

I don't need to be pulled over and ticketed for using a cell phone when I drive to distract me. I just need to be driving with the bunch of yahoos I chauffeur around on a daily basis. :)

And yes, this is my life.
