[CustardTart]

We cannot wait to get a Wii!!!!!!!!!! They were in stock around Oct. but we figured we'd be able to get one closer to Christmas. HA! Fooled us! We don't have any other gaming systems. Just patiently waiting for a Wii...

You'll love it, Abby! Good work out machine too...

Good luck with that!!

Karen-

In 2005 it was listed in Entreprenuer (sp?) magazine as one of the top 20 home based businesses. At that time I was also doing two home based businesses along-side my current full-time job, but not getting anywhere with them. So I researched poop scooping for about 9 months, decided to do it, and the very week I filed my business application and was about to order all my supplies, someone else in my small town started up their poop scooping business!!!! (go figure) I have since put it on the back burner with the economy/gas prices and such. May do it later. It's a dirty job but it pays well. My name was going to be Reporting for Doody. (we live close to an air force base so that was kind of my inspiration) One guy I've talked to is VERY successful with his business. He lives in a super nice house and he calls it the house that poop built. Not sure why I remember that. I'm always on the hunt for new things to get in to.

Planning on The Little Mermaid? Our DD is still too young for that, but DW and I may go.

Looks like a great production...

If you are in city - try Nintendo World (Rockefeller Center). During the holidays they rec'd a daily shipment and people lined up at 6:00AM - not sure if that has gotten any better or not. I was in Toys R Us last year and they had a stack of Wii's... DS wanted to buy a few and make some $$$ on EBAY, but I wouldn't have wanted to been wandering around NYC carrying those.

I like the way he thinks...

What poop would you scoop??? Poop on the road or in people's gardens???

That's funny! My boss was playing the bowling and her DH was yelling at her for "bowling" so hard. So he took the controller, bowled as hard as he thought he needed too, and his ball stopped near the beginning of the lane. Mr. Smarty Pants didn't realize how much force goes into those games! Anyone have the boxing game?

Yes! It's tough...

 

[CustardTart]

Me too!!!!!

Congrats on 4000!!!!!!!

People's gardens(yards), apartment complexes. Fun eh? I'm easily entertained.

Good Morning!

Good morning Harry! A few minutes of downtime before the running begins!

DS walked by (finally going to bed) and was not happy to see I posted his SISTER and not him!

Great photo!!! Love the Everton shirt... It's all exciting here in England today as Newcastle United has a new manager, the soccer legend that is Kevin Keegan... Honestly, if I hear the theme tune to Local Hero one more time...

 

[CustardTart]

Well just growl back at it

 

[CustardTart]

Great pics Harry! Here is DS playing his favorite baseball position.

Cute guy...

Also, found out last week my step-sis will not be coming on this cruise after all. She and her DBF of 4 years broke up, so now she's back to single mom, 1 income.

That's a shame, Abby!

While we are on sports pictures here are a few pictures of my son from the Superbowl this year. They ended up winning 28-14!

Zane and my brother after the game.

So cute and I love you brother's supportive hair/beard decoration!!!

Morning, well I have to wait for 15 nights on the Magic through Panama first then think of this one. Lets not wish our life away! It will come!

Too true!

OK TBH I didn't understand before - now I think it's a brilliant idea!!! I would definitely pay someone to do that here... However, I've never encountered it here sooooo maybe a business idea for me...???? What sort of equipment do you get???? In Paris I've noticed the street pooper scoopers seem to dry freeze the poop before sort of hoovering it up - OMG I hope no one's eating!!!!
