mrrrrhh... 11-17-08 08:10am EST
this has been such a long weekend.
work was CRAZY.
welcome to mall traffic during christmas season.
we're not IN the mall,
we just share the parking lot,
and i am not excited about this.

i dont choose to shop at the mall.
but i am forced to fight the traffic,
almost every day.
and its only gonna get worse...

(this seems like a silly thing to whine about,
but it makes me feel better)



10 more days till i see santa!
whipsmileok...I avoid the mall at all costs during the rest of the year, forget about Christmas time! I do not envy you my firend. Well, on this matter at least. 
tommyswifeWell I do love the mall, but not this time of year! I have been doing a lot of internet shopping and with the economy we are going a little slimer on x-mas this year. I like to be able to research a product or gift, and the mall encourages more impulse buys! OK probably more than you needed to know, but I think you need to come visit. I would love to see you! I don't get to KY that often! 
scbrewerThe amount of molasses they put in... that's about it. Dark has a stronger flavor than light but other than that there would be no difference in using one in place of the other. 
scbrewerWhat do you need help with??? 
mockinbirdI am not a fan of driving any time of the year, so Christmas traffic is even more abhorrent. Luckily I have a lovey hubby who takes me out a lot, or even does it for me if I give him a specific item, the money, and the store to buy it at. He has more free time during the day than I do.

you thought i forgot... 11-11-08 10:50am EST
my favorite part is when my neighbor was wondering
who the stranger in my yard was...
(it was me)



whipsmileP.E.R.F.E.C.T. 
scbrewerAWESOME 
weekendsongservicewow, "Sunday Best" means different things in different communities i guess. 
madtomkiddThat's a pretty unlikely couple. But I LOVE your coat! 
mister_cYour husband totally rocks!!!!! But why is he posing with Gene Wilder? 
millychloeAre you Willie wonka? That is a great costume! 
bigdeborahcool!!! and yes, I did think you forgot. 
isabeau_danjouHahaha, I love it! Where did you get that jacket (and did you keep it, cause it rocks)? 
marlaAHA! I get the purple coat now... :) 
tommyswifeThat is classic! What a combo! He should have been one of the orange guys, I can't remember what they are called! 
mockinbirdWonderful!!! 
charliesangelyou look awesome, and your husband is a hottie!! i LOVE indiana jones :) 
cruisingmomI love the Gene Wilder costume too!
Someone asked me about the 'c' word. I told them I would ask what caused you aversion to them. Did your mom or dad forced you to eat some horrendous 'one' at a potluck or something??
 
tommyswifeSo what is your aversion to that word? Inquiring Angels want to know. I have a major adversion to potlucks! I do not like them. I go, I bring food, but I am very choosy about what I eat. :) 
scbrewerServsafe National Certification Exam 
lesleyawesome costumes!!! 
vanessamyou guys look great!!!! i wish that i could have seen ya!! I was a Christmas Tree this year! It was a lot of fun! 
ashleybhow cute!! very creative i must say!

wha???... 11-11-08 09:38am EST
so i walked outside my house this morning,
and all the leaves i just told you about having fallen to the ground,
are not there.

there are a few,
but most of them are gone.

?????????????????????????????????????

my guess would be that my neighbor raked them up,
cuz he's awesome and crazy.
but i dont know how he would have done this without me noticing.

very strange.
a mystery...
scbrewerthe wind maybe? 
mockinbirdjust like in Camelot!!! 
mister_cMaybe you live in Camelot? 
toad8029I took them for my yard. Should I return them? 
scbrewerIt's not really HARD as much as it is just labor intensive. The Philo dough stacking thing takes a while. 
whipsmile;-) would this be crazy Ruben? 
weekendsongservicei have an odd neighbor too. 
lefantstafno, crazy Charlie. i think. 
whipsmile:-)

that was fast... 11-08-08 02:20pm EST
so the beautiful tree in our front yard is a purple ash.
(im not even going to go into the future peril for my tree,
created by the evil ones- the emerald ash borers)

Anyway.
This tree turned a beuatiful yellow, and then purple.
And in the last 2 days,
all the leaves fell off.
Well, there are probably 7 or 8 leaves left.
But it was crazy! In 2 days, the tree lost 90% of its leaves!
(This is unlike the neighbor's giant maple and walnut,
that have been shedding fo a while, with LOTS to go.)

It was just neat. One morning-full.
Next night- empty.
Nature rocks!
scbrewerYay for leaf raking and jumping! 
cruisingmomNature does rock. We just need to remember to slow down enough, from time to time, to take it in.  
scbrewerYeah. I'm gonna want it too but use every ounce of my being to either say no or just eat one piece. 
whipsmilemoist 
whipsmile:-) nature so rocks! 
madtomkiddI'm just surprised it took this long. Usually, the leaves are all gone by now. Did you get a pic while it was purple? All of our ash trees are only yellow, and they look cool, but I'd LOVE to see a purple tree! 
mockinbirdNo trees in my yard, so no raking.

NO MORE MUD SLINGING COMMERCIALS!!!


this makes me happy.

i hate mud slinging.

unless its actual mud.
millychloeHa! 
dr_wormI think the candidates should just mud wrestle to determine the winner. 
scbrewerI have proof that you enjoy mud slinging. 
isabeau_danjouHahahaha....actual mud....or potting soil. Whatever the case may be. 
whipsmileAMEN! 
madtomkiddReal mud slinging is cool 
bigdeborahmud slinging is good...so is mudsliding...with the FC Spring Queen :) That makes me smile! 
vanessamTRUE THAT YO! When i went to vote there were names that i saw that i thought i am not going to vote for you because your commercials are sooo mean! :-) 
mockinbirdmockingbird with a "g" was already taken 
tu_madremmm...mud fights... 
cruisingmomI'm assuming if I mention the word 'casserole' it would ruin your weekend? Oops. :o) 
whipsmileit's so funny, I read the "c" word and actually thought of you. :-)

in my mind, you are forever linked with the "c" word AND the "m" word. :-)
hehehe 
mockinbird"c" is not the word I link with you or "m" (mainly because I don't know what it is. My link word I guess would have to be...poise.:-)
