A new name for mom

I don't know if any of you have experienced Mom's expertise in weather, but I've found that she is consistently more knowledgeable about my 7-day forecast than I am...and we don't even live in the same state! I used to have this little thing called weatherbug on my computer, which is basically a customizable program that pops up with your updated weather information whenever you want. I thought it was great, but Andy claimed that it bogged down the computer and brought lots of unwanted pop ups with it, so we got rid of it. I missed it for a couple days, but soon after I realized I no longer need weatherbug.

I have Mombug! I don't even need to go to my computer for weather updates - they come to me! If a storm is coming, a cold front moving in, unusually strong winds expected, or possible hazardous driving conditions called for, you can expect a friendly and knowledgeable update from Mombug. Better yet, the service is completely free!

P.S. I know a more literal and apt name would have been "weathermom", but it didn't have the same ring to it.

  1. I just read this post out loud to Mom and Ben. We all thought it was pretty cute! I think we should arrange for Mom to spend the day with Bill Stephen.

  2. He's my hero! You all have always thought I should marry him! Actually, Janell, I feel quite honored to be dubbed, "Mombug!" I will continue to do my best to keep you all duly informed and apprised of potentially hazardous weather conditions. I take my job seriously:)
