I don't really know what that is. But last Christmas I got a lot for one of my kids at school. I noticed around November that she was wearing the same thing every time I had her for class. Once I noticed that I would intentionally look for her every day. She always wore the same ole grubby outfit. It was horrible. It broke my heart. I went to the guidance councelor and told her that I wanted to give her a nice Christmas but didn't want her or any of the other kids to know it was me. My DH and I got her a winter coat, gloves, hat, bath and body works shower stuff and lotion, hair ribbons, shampoo, gap sweatshirt, jeans, shirts from Sears and K-mart. I also got her some jogging type pants. I told the lady at Sears what I was doing and she got her manager. He gave me a 40% discount on the total because of what I was doing. Then I got her arts and craft supplies. The police officer who runs our DARE program delivered it to the door on Christmas Eve. He also delivered a food basked with Turkey and all of the trimmings that was put together by my husbands Sunday School class. That way the only people who know what was going on were my family, the guidance councelor, and the cop. She was beaming when we got back from Christmas break. Her regular classroom teacher said she over heard her saying that Jesus must have given her an angel to bring so many things. The other teachers didn't know it was me...I did it for her...KWIM? I overheard her classroom teacher saying it in the lunch room. That will always be a special christmas to me.

I always donate stuff to the Bethany Children's Home...but that is going to a faceless person (I don't know them.) Last year was just different...if that makes any sense!

Sorry for the long post...I just got on a tangent...a feel good one.

My DW is a great cook! (wait 'til you see me then you will know for sure!) One time she forgot about the eggs until we heard this loud popping sound. The water was gone and the eggs had exploded! All over the the place including the ceiling!

Morning fellow cruisers!

 

[MommyMinnie]

Good morning everyone!
Now for the AM news from Atlanta

It's warm and Humid here today. 60's with frizzy hair

The kitten is attacking the tree and capturing ornaments to hide. Don't bother hanging them higher, he's just climbing the tree.

Yes Todd, I know you had the real deal rings, I was only teasing about the catalog. Who do you think I think you are anyway?

I woke DD up this morning and she asked for 7 more minutes sleep. 7?

 

[MommyMinnie]

Kevin you just made my day.
Don't tell DH.

 

[elaineteresa]

I think almost all irons are like that these days. You actually have to buy an iorn on purpose that stays hot. Sewers like them, Moms don't.

I was surprised how fast mine heats up again when shut down. It's a Rowenta.

I'm in the no makeup group too. If I have time I will run out and buy a mascara - I get a new one each time I decide to wear it. Like every few years or so. LOL.

Maybe we could have PJ etc. give us some tips.

 

[elaineteresa]

of course I can always borrow Jaea's makeup - she is bringing a scad of it.
She mostly puts on a ton then wipes most of it off and goes with what is left - this all takes about 1/2 hour. I wish I had that kind of time.

 

[elaineteresa]

I bought Giona some loafers. I am very happy with these because I don't like the dress shoes he has and the loafers can be casual or dressy. Now he has to break them in.

 

[elaineteresa]

My Oriental Trading stuff is here. I had to ship it rush because I procrastinated about choosing something then hubby threw the catalog away and I had to plow through the online site.

USPS needs me to sign for it for some reason - they must have sent it that way so either I need to go over and get it or hope I am home when they come back.

I don't think I can turn the goodie bags around fast enough to ship it to the port so I will have to carry it.

Egads! I haven't worn mascara in years and years and years. It is filth to clean out of glasses. Did I say filth, what I meant to say was

F I L T H!​

I have a Rowenta too. It does heat up fast.

If you don't wear makeup then who's teaching Jaea?

 

[goofyforlife]

I hope my new Disney crocs arrive before we leave. I will be so bummed out if they don't make it in time.

Drum roll please

On this the occasion of my 3000th post.....I would like to thank you all for the laughs (there have been many), sharing your tears, and everything else in between.
But on a more important note:

I got my Mickey Crocs yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[lillygator]

7 more sleeps!

 

[MommyMinnie]

Kristina those are adorable! I had no idea they would be so cute!

 

[elaineteresa]

I didn't know that happens - I will be more careful because I don't mind throwing the egg out but I don't want to have to clean the skylight. LOL.

when you meet her you will know the answer to that - just ask Kristina. LOL.

she's a card, that girl.
