1) SHE was the one who put the unnatural and/or inconvenient requirement of making the hot rough ridin' pan the last thing out the door. That's a decision she made, and it's on her. Maybe pick something more convenient lady?
2) If a pacifier is such a difference maker (I don't think it is, and if it is, you have much larger issues than not having a pacifier), then maybe have it more secure.
3) I would love love LOVE if my family was ready in the vehicle ass-in-seat ready to go at the time that was agreed to. I am certainly capable of planning ahead and having everything I am responsible for in the vehicle well ahead of time, and usually so that I can help get everyone else that's falling behind get ready. Maybe that's enabling, whatever, it's not a big deal. But this lady is lucky, yet says she is so damn busy, and yet (as rd astutely pointed out) posts a blog to routinely complain about how busy she is. What in the actual eff lady?
