so funny. I remember when my dd was four and asked what "to dial" meant.

My kid (he was 6 at a time) was hysterical because he couldn't pause the tv show. I couldn't explain to him what live television meant. He thought I was making it up.

I was in an old office building with 3 young ladies, all clients in their very early 20s. Two of the ladies went to get a snack. The third sitting next to me asked me what is that little room used for. it was about 3x3 with a small stool and bi-fold doors. I was shocked and asked her if she really didn't know. Then the other tow ladies returned and asked the very same question. Again, I asked if they really didn't know what a telephone booth was.

Was that before or after the trick-or-treaters started showing up? ;)

Lol. We were good and ate very little. Maybe 3-4 rolls of Smarties.

My kids were up by 6:30, an hour and a half their scheduled time. By the time I figured out why, the entire table was covered with empty candy wrappers.

LOL!

I love it.

And bring back my body to me, to me...

:)

My dad used to play this on the ukulele!

That's a wonderful gesture.

I feel terrible for laughing!

Well he finished the book and when I asked him about it he said he needed to talk about something else. :-(

yes. I have never seen so much lightning and thunder. It has been almost a year since the last rains.

Oh no!

Can I ask what roof you decided on? We are in the middle of looking at bids.

PMing you

Hmmm...sounds legit!

That sounds like a very nice obsession to have!

Mental health does equal a clean house here as well! I'm working diligently on improving the mental health today!!!

For me, cluttered house = slowly encroaching insanity. We have to take one of these mental health days regularly!!

Yeah, I get depressed if it gets too messy or disorganized. It's like all those things encroach on my mental space. Glad people understand!

Sure was. I hope this El Nino comes through this winter.

I'm tempted to spend every summer weekend at the beach.

We're near the beach! Come visit!

Seriously, that was an awful fall.

I know, his poor head.

I was, but for home use. I didn't send them to the potluck.

Oh no! Glad you were able to rescue them.

Thanks!

Ooooh...I hate that part!

:(

Thanks....

You are just a homeschool mom. It's not like you were going to actually do anything today but sit on the couch, eat bonbons, and have the kids play video games...right? ;)

Sigh...I had to put my bonbon down to wrap the floss.

Bummer!

I'm just waiting for a rain forecast that actually pans out! We were supposed to get 5" this weekend - we're waiting!

The system broke apart a bit and the second part is delayed. The heavier rain will be later in the week. SoCal will get heavy rain; the delay has allowed the system to tap into tropical moisture coming from Hawaii. If it hadn't been delayed they would have received much less rain, so that's good at least.

I think you're in the north bay? If so you're probably going to get some thunder/lightning this evening.

Amen! Your post made me want to cry. I remember when ,y dh was off in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It doesn't matter where your dh was. It's still nice to know they're safe.
