our pet... the great houdini

We loose our pet ALL the time. BUT... each time we loose him...
we find him or he makes himself seen!!!
I thought I would post little nut and the great houdini!

craigslist!!!

I am a little craigslist fool!!! I love it. Have any of you really discovered craigslist. P has been telling me that I would love it and I just haven't really listened, but now that I am going through this house with a fine toothed comb... I am coming up with all sorts of things to sell. I have sold these fine items below. I have also sold a baby monitor, a tv... well, I think that is all, but I still have many things posted and I tell you... I am going to sell them.
What a fun "past time"... whatever that means... for me it means that I should be sleeping, cleaning, making lunch for someone, cleaning, changing someones pants, making beds, cleaning (did I mention that already?), getting ready for the day, getting ready for bed, reading, making dinner... well you got the point a long time ago... anyway, it is fun for me right now!
and as a side note... I lost my cell phone and so for 2 weeks I have had to live without texting... WHO IN THEIR RIGHT MIND DOES THAT???? I am so happy to be back in that world again. Okay, enough of all this babbling... all anybody really wants to do is see pics. I will post more as all my junk sells!

PS... this ann taylor purse... I think I more than quadrupled my money there! and the dresser... don't even go there baby... I made it big... of course I did house it for plenty of months.

January

This sums up P's holiday!! I can't find any pictures of crazy ladies pulling

all their hair out. Otherwise that is what would sum up my holiday!

It was a great holiday inspite of loosing one of our dearest pets... yes we did loose our snake... AGAIN!! And yet... another recovery! We have renamed it...

the great houdini!! I think it is very fitting.

It was a blast to take pictures of the little guy.

Spell Bowl

Peep has worked hard 2 mornings a week for over a month at her spell bowl words. A couple of nights ago p was testing her on them and one word was cerebellum.

P wanted her to come and show it to me. I told him it was too last for theatrics.

He said " This is worth it!"

She had spelled it... sarahbellum!

Tagged!

Tagged!!! what is that? Just kidding, I was actually thrilled to get tagged twice. I still am one of those "new" bloggers that look forward to those kinds of things.
so...
Quirks???...
I know I have some... it's just sharing the best ones.

1. I LOVE matlock! so, when they changed the time from 1 pm to 8 am I was so upset. I emailed them and all. I then started recording it every morning. (from 8 to 9am is a very hectic time of the day for me!) Anyway, it is awesome. I now can watch it whenever I want. I am MAD if I forget to record it. I have started setting my phone alarm to ring at 8 so I won't miss it!

2. I think I am with kk on this... I have to have my bed made ... even if it is 3 in the afternoon and I haven't had time to do it until then.

3. I am not much of a tv watcher (except matlock, of course!), but I LOVE music. Many days you can catch me jammin' to something or other cleaning the kitchen and dancing around! (is that considered a quirk?)

4. I just went into p and said: "honey, what are some of my quirks?" He said: "honey, I know where this is headed, what are some of my quirks... lets here it, what are some things you'd like me to work on?"
SO, I guess that is one of my quirks. :)

5. I have a highly sensitive nose!!! now this is truly a quirk!

I think this is hitting my quirk thinking abililties.
I hope you all didn't get too bored by this little activity.
I tag... carolyn, linda and holly!
