I'm working again all day today. My little parttime job has suddenly turned into fulltime! I didn't expect the long weeks until closer to Christmas. And speaking of Christmas, we started putting out Christmas stuff at Michaels yesterday!! We've got all the ribbon out and started putting out the crafty stuff which I guess people need if they start their Christmas crafts now or make stuff to sell at craft shows. At least we haven't put up the trees and ornaments yet!

Have a wonderful day everyone!

It's Thursday! I've *got* to get to the grocery store. My sister is away again, so we have use of the pool if we want. I'd like to get some swap stuff done and I really should vac and do some laundry.

Hope everyone has a good day!

Good Morning...

Pam - love the sticky idea...If there is anything I can help with let me know. Oh and I do have the magnet Xyron thingy if you need it.

Jennifer - Sarah was in bed early and I don't expect to see her anytime soon. They had such a great time

Randy is telecommuting today so I may get to run some errands by myself.

Need to find some colourful shade loving plants that will look nice in October (any ideas anyone?) for the yard. We are having Randy's mom's services here October 9th and I want the back yard looking nice. Usually I plant some annuals but didn't this year. Don't know if I will be able to find any impatients this late in the season - so off to the nursery for me today.

Laundry
Clean kitchen
Make up Camping Menu
Dinner ?
Shopping for Pants
Play with Happy Hauntings with the Bean

Have a great day everyone...

Been a crazy one around here, a babysit kid came to the house this morning with an infestation in her hair....I immediately called her dad to come pick her up and have been stripping beds and cleaning like a mad woman for the past 2 hours. Didn't see anything on the boys thank goodness, but I have to make sure there's none in the house. Ah-the joys of having an in-home daycare! Sorry-needed to vent a little...

[ddavis860]

OK, DH keeps talking about a tempurpedic mattress. This is an ongoing conversation, so I'm thinking he is serious. Anyone have one? Like it?

We need a new mattress, so I'd love to hear anyone's thoughts.

 

[ddavis860]

Hi SDSorority! Glad you found us!

OK, the oreo truffles are SO RICH!! But they say you are what you eat, so I had 2

Recipe is from bakerella and is easy peasy! I'll post it later. But I'm not getting the candy melts to "melt" like I want. I got a melting pot, but I think I like the way it comes out of the microwave better...sigh...

 

[TinkerBean]

Welcome SDSorority

Deb - I bought everything to make those oreo truffles this past xmas but then lost the wind from my sails and the kids ate all of the oreos...now I want to try them again

 

[ddavis860]

DS22 just sent me this...

We had a 4 inch thick temperpedic mattress topper. It was quite comfortable but HOT! We finally got rid of it.

Thanks Linda. I've heard that they get hot. I hate to sleep hot!! Reviews say that if you can get past a few weeks, you get used to it, but that some people never do. I'm just worried I'll be one of those that never gets used to "hot"

 

[morgansmom2000]

Oh, no...I'm not a fan of hot. As it is, I sleep in a t-shirt with no covers and DH is wrapped up in a blanket with sweats on. Thanks for the info!

Sigh, did you all know football starts tonight? Isn't it still August?!
