An oops and an uh-oh

This is what happens when little boys, who are constantly reminded to put their bikes away in the proper place, DON'T LISTEN TO THEIR MOTHERS!
Luke decided that the best place to park his bike today was in the driveway, directly behind our van. So, the photo isn't that great (I was trying to keep it together, I was a little upset) but pretty much says it all. I totally backed over his bike. The handlebar is almost bent completely in half, the left pedal is gone, chain mangled, tire flat, seat stuffing coming out......and now we have a huge inch-deep crevice in the street by our driveway. At first I thought the bike put a hole in our tailpipe, but after some investigating it seemed fine. I informed Mr. Luke that I would not be running out to the store to purchase him a new bike today (sniffles from his corner). I said he was going to have do extra jobs around the house to earn money to pay for a new bike (again, sniffles from his corner). So tonight I'm making a little list of odd jobs that he can do to make some fast cash...he's already made $1.00.

The Cronicles of Tapa...the cat.

OK Cat lovers of the world explain this....we're going on vacation and wanted to board our cat, but they wouldn't take her unles...
