Hee hee. Nope, this is practical. Not saying diamonds aren't.

First, Overit, a breadbox-sized diamond would come in pretty hand for me this week. We missed megamillions (265m$) by a mere 6 digits last night.

Okay. Practical, shiny, bigger than a breadbox, not girlie.

It's a ... circular saw.

Yes, I would take the sized diamond anyday..

Okay, when I said bigger than a breadbox, that was a figure of speech. It is probably as big as more than several breadboxes.

Oooooh, I would so love to have a copper mower!

Ang, you could send some of that rain my way. I like new mowers, but then, I like tools...uh, power tools and pick up trucks...and...flannel shirts...

I'm not a very girlie girl.

Tammie, I was married for 13 years and I don't recall my ex ever mowing the yard. Or, repairing anything around the house, although he would work on the vehicles...then, he decided I should really learn how to do that, too. You know, just so I wouldn't have to call him if I got stuck out on the road. LOL!!!!

I think all a women really needs are plants, Taco Bell, chocolate, comfy sneakers and a good toolbox. Cats, pick-ups, good lawnmowers and flannels are optional.

My husband does not even know what a mower is. It was just that "thing" the kid that he used to pay $30 per week for, brought to make the grass pretty and it made a lot of noise. So, I call him yesterday from the hardware store. Honey, they have this great last year's model mower on clearance for $229, can I buy it? Sounds like a good deal to me, he says. Put in on my credit card.


Wooooooooooooooooooo Hooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!

The way I figure it, it will pay for itself in two months!!!!!!!!
