6/100

One of my friends had this on FB and I though it was interesting. 
The BBC believes most people will have read only 6 of the 100 books here. How do your reading habits stack up?Instructions: Copy this into your NOTES. Look at the list and put an ‘x’ after those you have read.

Does anyone actually fall for this?

Great news, Mr. Urge wants to give me his money.  Really, it’s not a scam or anything, because random people give me control of their money all the time.  (And yes, I am rolling my eyes as I type this.) 
Greetings,
My name is Mr vincent urge,I am a deteriorating and dying
man who had decided to donate what I [...]

If you need beach towels

I just got back from the mall and The Disney Store is having a sale on beach towels for kids.  They’re 50% off, which makes them $7.25 each.  I looked on-line and they have a similar deal but it’s buy one, get one free.  We walked away with four of them (Wall-E, Cars, Mickey Mouse [...]

Yum

We’ve been living on these for the past few weeks.  Sam’s has had the best grapes and blueberries lately.

We’ve also been living on guacamole.  My brother, Mike, taught Eric how to make the best dip.  Yum.

One more place to waste time

My SIL Amanda told us about this website.  Great, another addicting website to waste my time on.

My Fitness Coach

I am absolutely loving this Wii game that my boys gave me for my birthday.  Honestly, I don’t know if you would even consider it a game.  It’s more like 6+ workout videos in one.  
You sign on and then you get to pick:
1.  Type of workout you want to do - core, cardio, upper body, lower body, flexiblity or [...]

Movie quotes

Here’s something that’s going around on Facebook. 
Pick 15 of your favorite movies.  Go to IMDb and find a quote from each movie.  Post them here for everyone to guess.  Strike it out when someone guesses correctly, and put who guessed it and the movie.  NO GOOGLING/using IMDb search or other search functions.
Here we go….

Call my name

WFMW – Another free photo book

 
Sorry guys. 
It turns out the email I received was only for certain customers (although it would have been nice if it had said that).  I went around and around with Shutterfly to see if there was any way they would extend this offer to you guys.  And I basically got a big, fat no.  I tried. 
So [...]

F.P. makes me sick

That man and his group are in town.  They’re protesting up at the high school where my kids will eventually go.  I guess there are a few reasons why they’re up there:  a) last year the students voted for a gay student to be their Homecoming King and  b) one of the elected student body positions (president, maybe?) is also gay.  [...]

Dogs need a home

UPDATE:  The dogs have been adopted.

What do you do with old prom dresses?

I received this email from one of my friends:
Hey gals, 
I have never known what to do with my old prom dresses ’til now!  Just wanted to let you know I found a place that takes old prom dress donations in KC, KS.  They then have area high school students in the KC, KS school district [...]

Brrr

Our power finally came back on.  We lost it some time last night during that awful storm.  I guess they said that some places had winds up to 79 mph.  Crazy.  I can’t believe the rest of our fence is still standing (that was the first thing I checked when I woke up).  It got down [...]

1 out of 4

It’s snowing here today.  In fact, they say we might get around 5 inches.  While the roads aren’t horrible, you do have to drive SLOW.  I took the boys to get their picture taken this morning and passed 4 snow plows.  Guess how many of them were actually plowing the snow?  One.  I’m sure there’s [...]

Extended deadline and problem solver

The deadline for the free Snapfish photo book has been extended to Saturday, November 22.  I guess they’ve had such a high demand that they’re experiencing problems.  That’s great.  I need the extra time.
Also, some people aren’t showing the credit on their accounts.  If this is so, this is what you need to do:
1.  Log in
2.  [...]

Catholic Vote

I received an e-mail today from one of the women in my church group.  It had a link to this video:
http://www.catholicvote.com/
I really like.  They get their point across without flat out telling you who to vote for next month.

Nude beach

(I some how posted this as a page instead of a post this morning.  Oops.)
Okay, this is the first commercial that has made me laugh in a while.  Eric and I were both giggling after we saw it.
