Yes, I did get the bite when I was trying to catch the bunny. I don't know where he is now. Such a shame. The rain has forced the fire ants out of the ground and they are in the lawn. |
I'm just glad we don't have fire ants, yet. I'm sure they'll find a way at some point. My brother lived in Texas for a few years. He doesn't miss the ants. I'm looking at yesterday's paper. Kids are fighting. Nothing new. |
In my Sunday paper was an entire page devoted to lobster roll. Mentioned the Lobster Shack and Eventide Oyster Co. A Weasel reminder. http://i60.tinypic.com/2hnxb1x.jpg |
Big S it was most definitely shame. That's one big thing I am working on in therapy. Hope you get your wheels back soon. I could eat a lobster roll every day and never get sick of them I would however get sick of the Spanx I would have to wear to compensate for the lobster rolls. Not fair. |
I can relate 1 Attachment(s) This is how many of feel here in Texas and OK |

Never mind. :peek |
I don't know, EndGame. Go all out and Google Keeping Up With the Kardashians. I'm going to meander over to my parents' house now. I have to simmer down. Son has a book report to do and he doesn't want to sit and do it. Drives me crazy. Plus they want a ********** presentation. For 4th grade. That flummoxes me because I don't know ********** and neither does my son. Tried to get him to do a handwritten outline to plug into the slides but it's a losing battle. I guess I'm resigning myself to the fact that he isn't going to do well with advanced academics. Smart, but no focus |
Why did they ex out power point? |
Because it's a very naughty word. Or else some moderator really holds a grudge against a job where they had to do a lot of ********** presentations. I used to post on a website where one of the moderators banned the word "Mr. Peanut" because of a childhood trauma suffered at the hands of a supermarket salesman in a Mr. Peanut costume. |
Always good to have a spare fan belt , spark plugs & leads , rotor arm , dizzy cap ( depending on you vehicle) 1 1/2" -2" hose (depending on your car) and a few cir-clips jerry can of fuel and enough water and coolant to charge the system IMHO . tyre weld in a can . Wont take up much room in your trunk but it'd sure speed up the repairs if you have issues bigS . I tend to have 2 spare wipers in the boot too as when they go wrong it always seems to be in the middle of a rain storm . I tend to keep the old parts after a service as it can still be a useable spare . |
Great advice, Mex - my alternator belt gave this time, and one of the pulleys was also pretty mucked up. Sure would have been nice to have a spare belt - especially since it's a rather odd size and can't be found easily. Looks like everything should be taken care of by 5pm today, wish me luck on my journey. It will be a good excuse to stop by the nice grocery store outside of town on the way home, perhaps pick myself up a reward (Haggen Daaz). In the meantime, time to hunker down and watch the Twins beat the Red Sox! |
4th Grade is 8/ 9 year old isn't it? That seems way too young to be doing power point presentations. Mind you I was 26 before I could tie my own shoelaces. I still struggle with ties I've had a sober long weekend and I have done a lot of work on my Lancia but it hasn't been an especially enjoyable one Even the limited social life I "enjoyed" when I was drinking, well it seemed to revolve around drink. Fed up of not going to things because drinking is involved I want to stay sober but was hoping for a bit more recovery by now Sorry for being the class whiner |

Wow! I missed a lot on here being busy this weekend! Sorry to hear about the flooding, fire ants, and the lost bunny Art. Glad to have another weekend under my belt! |
This site also asterisks out the plural of license for some weird reason. Ok, did my neighborly duty and went to the indoor cookout.....brought a veggie tray and an olive tray. However, I couldn't get on board with the kids pranks this year......I could see potential lawsuits in the making! Saoutchik.....you aren't whining at all and I think bigS has some really good suggestions! Mecanix.....I don't even know what half those things are much less have them in my car! Or maybe I do have them and just don't know it! Blah! Im so unprepared! |
