I love romance novels. Especially the steamy ones!

That reminds me of that Friends episode when Joey found Rachel's romance novel hidden in her bed.

That neighbor's wife sounds like a cook!

That's a whole other matter!

Once she gets over her snit, she always brings over a plate of cookies "for the kids." It annoys the crap out of me, but I always feel like since it's for the kids and we keep them out of it, I should accept.

But NO MORE MRS. NICE GUY!

I told DH that once she recovers she better not bring over a plate of cookies, because I am NOT going to accept it under any terms, and will give her an earful from me! In case you haven't figured me out, in real life that will turn out to be me being nice but telling her in a nice way that I'd appreciate if she'd keep her pubic hair matters and lusting for my husband to herself.

At least grandma isn't around because when the parents say no, that's when you ask grandma!

No kidding! DH's father is terribly indulgent (so is his wife), and I am just SHOCKED at how much my own parents cater to my children! My mom just chuckles at them and lets them do things she never would have tolerated from us!

But she's not responsible for their behavior, it doesn't reflect on her. Her job is to just love them and have fun with them, and she does. She and Dad also enjoy laughing about my kids' antics, because it's not THEM going through it anymore.

Thats what grandparents are for! oh... and the spoiling. OH MY. My kids dont get it much anymore.. but my dad was CRAZY when it came to getting them stuff. The year Mikalah was born, we went up there for Christmas... Just like every year... There were so many gifts, you couldnt even see the tree! It was UNREAL!! I never had Christmases like that when I was little!

My mom was like... I dont know where this stuff all came came from! There was my dad in the corner..

Ok this is going to take forever to type, but I need to tell you this story. Kind of another homemade redneck one.

This past week a friend of ours from church had someone try to steal some copper metal from him. Now let me tell you. This is the new hot item to steal by us. People take scrap metal into recycling yards and make pretty good money. Well he got tired of this happening to him, so he put an alarm on all of his pumps. He is a dairyman with lots of land. The pumps are for irrigating. The alarm is hooked up to his cell phone. Well in the middle of the night, his cell alarm goes off. Well let me tell you..................you don't want to mess with Johnny. He has a gun colletion, and knows how to use them. He is also 6'4" and very fit. Kind of like John Wayne. He probably even wore his cowboy boots and hat.

So he jumps in his truck with his shotgun or rifle, to confront these guys. In the meantime he has called the sherrif. So he drives up, and sees the chain that they are trying to pull his pump out with. The thieves see him, and take off in their car. Well he is so pissed, that he actually has a high speed chase after them. He bumps them with his pick up and they fly off into a field. One of the guys runs off, and he yells at the dude in the car, if he trys to get out of the car, he is going to kill him. The guy is so scared that he falls to the ground and starts to cry!! The other one stops and comes back. Finally the sherrif pulls up, and thanks him, cuz they'd been trying to find these guys. Can you imagine this?? It's like a bloomin movie. Oh, and Johnny even likes to ride horses!!

Serves these guys right!!!

Now THAT is my kind of guy! Good for him!

Stealing metal is big up here too... Im surprised that hubbies shop hasnt been hit. They have some really odd types of things they work with, and they are VERY expensive.

 

[Alex2kMommy]

Woweee!!!

Yeah, copper pipe and wiring theft is big around here, too. Kudos to your friend for helping to capture these guys.

But honestly, I wouldn't be surprised to hear of some lame lawsuit from the thieves, saying he threatened to kill them, or ran them off the road or some fool thing. I'm constantly amazed by the things people bring to court.

Yeah the folks around here are starting to get pretty upset!! One guy even had his water truck stolen, and happened to see it driving by the recycling yard. What gets me is.................how come the recycling people aren't more suspicious??? Huh?? Come on guys.............a water truck that is still good and usuable??

 

[eatmypixiedust]

Yeah!! LUCKY!! I cant WAIT to go to WDW!! Well... actually, I can. I will gladly wait another year or 2 for the little beastie to get older.

She wants to ride the new Yetti ride. That looks so fun!

I asked if she's going to Epcot and she said: "No, I've already been there." WHAT THE HECK??

She's going to be there for a couple of days. I want to go to WDW again.

Oh- do they have that feature where you can talk to Stitch? I wanted to do that here in DL but they told me they got rid of it. Never got to try it but it looked like fun! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJAvxAOrpLs&feature=related

That's what I wondered about these people stealing pipe and wiring. You got the same people coming in all the time with that stuff, shouldn't that raise a few eyebrows???

 

[tinkermell]

Well that did take forever to type, and my steamy book is calling to me.

Good night friends!

They are starting to do stings at some of the recycling yards here.. I havent seen it for a while, but I think they are really cracking down on them. Since they started taking bridge railing and such.. Costing the city money.

Exactly!!

Oh and one more thought.

I guess Shawna pooped out on us, and doesn't even know it.

 

[funnygarcia]

There have been a few listings of foreclosed homes in a decent area here in Metro area, cheap!

pause to wonder..

ok what gives??
