Imagine if you will a place which looks to be completely normal at first glance. But upon further inspection you realize some things are not as they should be. The mother is just not quite right. Things are in the wrong places and in the wrong order. Things are bizarely out of place and disassembled. Here are a few examples. . .


I walk into the kitchen looking for my keys about to run to the grocery store. Something smells strange. . .like a burning smell. I decide I should investigate. Then Jackson lets me know that he is "making" something for me. Inside the toaster (which is turned onto high by the way) I see all of my ziplock baggies (which are now burned and melded together) with the empty cardboard box behind the toaster. Lucky that I smelled and investigated and still have an in tact home.



Uh oh is heard as my angelic 21 month old son brings me this glass globe looking thing.



I then realize not only that I need a better "self cleaning" oven but also that Jack has climbed into the lower oven and removed the glass globe from around the light bulb. This is a picture of the upper oven. I still have not had a chance to fix the lower one.



Needing a few minutes to unload the dishwasher I gave Jackson the paper towel holder to play with for a moment. This is how he returned it a few minutes later.



Ahhh yes, my extra virgin olive oil. Just purchased it from Sams last week. It was full and never used and the portion that is missing Jackson poured out in the kitchen. Luckily he had been making music with pots, pans, cookie sheets and other cookware so barely any of it actually got on the floor.



If you find yourself in any of these situations you may have stumbled into. . .THE JACKSON ZONE. . .


*****These are all actual events which have taken place in the last few days*********
