This Malibu Barbies strengths just happen to revolve around cleaning and doing servicable acts of kindness that effect the lives of people around her. She is a perfectionist and for us lucky ones that live by her we reap the benefits. She failed to mention that when she fell in the window well it was because she was talking on the phone helping a friend. When she spilled the hot soup it was because she was delivering it to an expectant mom of twins and she slipped and fell on the ice. No grace maybe isn't one of her Barbie traits but the thing that she and Malibu have in common is that people want to be like them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802790462395863282.post-88576984913393854152009-05-17T17:38:00.000-06:002009-05-17T17:38:00.000-06:00Okay--it is time for "Malibu Barbie" (and I use th...Okay--it is time for "Malibu Barbie" (and I use that term loosely)to set the record straight. First, the only way I could be called Barbie (I have never even owned a Barbie in my life until now)is to reverse the dimensions. Not nearly as attractive that way. And I have never been a blonde! I have a few lighter streaks now in an unsuccessful attempt to cover the gray. As for the early morning flags. I didn't shower when I got up and I was too tired to take my makeup off from the night before. My 50% off JC Penney "ensemble" was covering my dirty tshirt that I wore to bed. (Isn't my husband lucky?) In our school you "get" to be PTO pres. because you weren't smart enough to get out of it. (I guess that is kind of "Barbieish.) Cleaning is my hobby--but who doesn't need a little instant gratification? Ask my kids. They would like me to come up with a better way of channeling my psychotic hyperactivity. And just for the record. I don't scrapbook, blog, fix daily nutritious meals for my family, create recipes and crafts for the whole blogging community,keep my finances and the PTO's finances in perfectly graphed order, make more money through Box Tops than ever in the history of Box Tops,take my kids to the library...WOw! I think I need to make a Barbie for you, Chaos Lady--Jill. Instead--due to my hyperdrive, I fall into window wells, slip on the ice and dump pans full of hot vegetable soup all over me and my white coat, back into my brother's parked vehicle, back into the mail car...oh the truth hurts sooooo! So now you all know the real truth. Perfection?

She is running around doing everything because she cares about all the students, not just her own. And yes, many of our PTO moms don't work, but that doesn't make their time any less valuable. I appreciate all that they do, even if they look dang cute when they're doing it.Controlling My Chaoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02048341331287236076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802790462395863282.post-65999846869526321282009-05-15T17:14:00.001-06:002009-05-15T17:14:00.001-06:00Ohhh, I hate Mailbu Barbie!

You never see them eat and they run around doing everything like they are on speed. They are always so put together. The kind of women who would never THINK of strangling someone else's kid and yelling "How do you like me NOW F***er????" Those women are the best reason to homeschool that I have ever heard of!

I usually mess it up by gagging in the background, and I'll never tell them it's jealosy!<br /><br />:-P<br /><br />We all need people like this in our lives to inspire us. I love your Barbie and look forward to meeting you in person far into the future in our "cricut hell".Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06792414596633206657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802790462395863282.post-36830408054632782462009-05-15T11:53:00.000-06:002009-05-15T11:53:00.000-06:00Sooo cute!

She is S-W-E-E-T. And modest. And humble. The first time I called her Malibu Barbie she told me that it was the sweetest compliment anyone has ever given her. Now if she had done a hair flip and giggled, maybe THEN I could hate her. As far as getting a job, Girlfriend doesn't have the time. :)Controlling My Chaoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02048341331287236076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5802790462395863282.post-4457906181641206432009-05-15T07:55:00.000-06:002009-05-15T07:55:00.000-06:00That is funny.

I'd love to hate them but they are so sweet that it's immpossiable. In fact I just love the mom's that donate so much time and effort to the schools, even if they are perfect. Of course no one will ever mistake me for anything close to that.
