Good Morning Ladies!

Megan, Did you see the ones at Costco? You got the Arena plus about 4-6 ball things and the animal looking things i think. Anyways, if my grandsons had been older, I would have bought it for them.

Tell me what you think of the it after you have played with them.

I have heard that they have them there.. But I havent made it out there to check them out.

My dear friends ,

Somewhat embarrassing to admit, Christmas is tight this year. I will be making bedroom slippers for you all as gifts. Please let me know your sizes. You'll most likely agree that it's a splendid idea, and should you wish to do the same, I've included the instructions below.

How to make bedroom slippers out of maxi pads:

You need four maxi pads to make a pair.
Two of them get laid out flat, for the foot part.
The other two wrap around the toe area to form the top.
Tape or glue each side of the top pieces to the bottom of the foot part.
Decorate the tops with whatever you desire, silk flowers (this is most aesthetically appealing), etc.

These slippers are:
* Soft and Hygienic
* Non-slip grip strips on the soles
* Built in deodorant feature keeps feet smelling fresh
* No more bending over to mop up spills
* Disposable and biodegradable
* Environmentally safe
* Three convenient sizes: (1.) Regular, (2.) Light and (3.) Get out the Sand Bags.


Awaiting your response. It's crucial that I get the right size for each one of you.

OMG. THAT is to funny.

How are ya?

Target has a coupon (printable or from their toy book) on the arena too.
I had to ask J what the heck they were and look at the website-- oooooo so like Pokemon and Transformers got busy and made babies?

 

[dizzyami]

Dizzy!

How are ya?

Alright. Frantically cleaning - entire family will be here Thursday (and some on Wednesday). But I work at 3 today, and ALL day tomorrow

But I figured I would check in real quick

 

[funnygarcia]

oh fun fun fun.. I hate cleaning. Thus I am playing on the computer instead of laundry, dishes, vac, etc etc etc..

Yep, understand that one. I think I made a decent amount of progress in the three hours I had today - hopefully DH and DN will finish it tonight

 

[dizzyami]

We could get up to a foot of snow over the holiday - so we will see how they deal with that

 

[funnygarcia]

I have a bone to pick with the inlaws.

BIL had all week off and came to visit his mom in WI.. think he could drive u here to visit or we could have Thanksgiving together.. NO. He planned a dinner with MIL .. and no one else.

Grr, Fine we will see them Christmas break right? School schedule, we have two weeks off. Nope, again BIL, SIL and MIL have planned to go out to eat in some bodunk town in WI. Well fine that's Christmas Day, I wouldn't want them around anyway.. but they are planning to vist or have us visit.. right??

Guess not.

It infuriates me that once hubby got married, they basically dropped him as a family member. I don't get it. Hubby is very much a part of my family, he doesn't particularly like spending time with my dad..(I don't think any of us do ) but we still go because that is what you do as a family.

I think now that he has a stronger bond with my sis and BIL than he does his own brother and sister.. and that is just sad.

We have a few flurries but it doesn't stay. Hasn't been cold enough.

You have them trained? Good for you. I haven't accomplished that .. yet.

But I try, I do try..

Aww, that sucks. Sadly I actually get along better with my inlaws (the ones coming up) then I do my own family . I figure at least I have one family that I like - two would just complicate things

wow! That will be fun !

That's crazy - I would expect different. We got three inches a few weeks back. Lots of fun - we snuck out behind our house (forest land) in the dark (with flashlights) and followed the critter prints in the snow . I do feel bad for the bunny though - we followed a bunny track - then it was intercepted by raccoon tracks...they both lasted for a few feet, into a tree, then the bunny prints went away

Very much so

Hey Alex - things are good - hectic, but good. I snuck on for a few minutes in between cleaning, but will have to get ready for work soon

Raccoon? They don't eat bunnies? Unless it was a baby.

 

[dizzyami]

Yep - the poor thing.

Sadly, I hit one the other day driving to work, and was pretty shook up about it. I told one of our regular customers - and he just looked at me appalled....











...that I didn't stop to gather him up and make stew

 

[dizzyami]

Hmmm...well then maybe he got away

We do have mean raccoons though - I swear one tried to eat Stitch (our beagle)

Because I am a curious creature wikipedia

Contrary to popular belief, raccoons eat birds and small mammals only occasionally, since the demanding hunt to catch them usually does not pay off.[73] Instead, fish and amphibians are their main vertebrate prey animals
