Lost poop, x-mas socks in June and scarecrows in the snow!

Thanks for visiting my blog. I have been having SOOOOO much fun visiting new blogs during The Ultimate Blog Party. It ends today, and I've barely begun. I love all the unique designs, the funny things people's kids say and do, and all the cool give-aways. I HAVE NOT had time to even check them all out, so I guess I won't be winning any  :- (

Today is also Friday, which means Friday Fragments and Virtual Girls Night Out!

So let's get started!


Friday Fragments

Half-Past Kissin' Time

We've been doing a lot of walking with iPod, the puppy we are raising for Canine Companions. It amazes me how people will stay in their OWN lane, quite close to the shoulder, rather than down the MIDDLE of the road, like true country folk! Someone came dang close to hitting Rocky the other day.

I yelled, "Drive in the middle of the road like everyone else does!"

If you are a follower, you may remember my previous post about this subject.

You may have also noticed the title mentioned something about missing poop. You can find out about that HERE

If you think missing poop is mysterious............how come I can never find my Christmas socks at Christmastime, yet when looking for socks in July, all I can find is Christmas socks!

Gotta be the kids........

Speaking of being off season, the other night in journal writing class we were doing a particular journaling exercise.......I was sharing with the class that the first time I did it, I realized I still had a scarecrow from Halloween on my mailbox post and it was Springtime!

If you want to know what the journal writing exercise was...well you have to take my class. Ask me how you can................

Another Strange but True family story........

You'all may remember the story I told a few weeks ago about my great-great (great?) uncle, the bus driver.....Read that funny story HERE.

Here's another one....

This one involves my Grandpa G.(my paternal Grandpa) and Uncle B. (Married to Grandpa's sister).

They both liked their drink.....

One day when my dad was little, Grandpa G. and Uncle B. decided to build some new steps for the house.

They obviously liked their drink a little too much....

....and made the stairs backwards! The were SKINNY and TALL, instead of long across with only a few inches between steps. You needed to have legs 3 feet long just to climb the stairs!



Golden Child got a 91.66 average this quarter, and his GF got a 95.66 average! Congrats, guys!



The Whiz Kids





Ok, now this may not be too smart!



Testimonial

I usually don't promote my AmeriPlan business during Friday Fragments & Virtual Girls Out, but this was such a good one....

OMG!! I went to Walgreens to fill my monthly script. I'm only 23 years old, and having to pay $111.00 a month has been costly. With the card, my script was $12.00! I'm a living testimony! These savings are real! An extra 100 dollars in my pocket! WOO!!

...another satisfied AmeriPlan member!

So funny about the stairs! Sounds like something my husband might do if he ever tried household projects....

Stopping by late from Ann's VGNO! And count me in for UBP too! Come over & check out my latest creation, a mini album from local Portland area company Punky Sprouts. I'm very excited to share them with all the papercrafters out there & I'm sure even those who aren't will enjoy checking it out.

Oh my! Never attempt to build anything when you've been drinking is definitely the rule I think! Thanks for stopping by and for the follow too, I am now following you also
