Stopping in here before I can't hardly come up for air!! Canning season is full on right now! We picked 50 pounds of tomatoes and I am turning them into sauce. We also picked another 3 quarts worth of green beans that are waiting to be canned. Then I was given a case (think the size of TWO...

Something sweet.... My 15 (almost 16) yo went down to the neighbors today and came home with a wooden puzzle for 6 and 9 yo!! He did a really good job on them and did not even draw the puzzle pieces out! He just free handed it with a jigsaw!! 15 yo did something really nice and learned a...

Some people are just pathological liars! I am sure if she would have just told you that she was pg and needed for herself or just said THANK YOU with NO story you would not have minded at all.

Same here Aly!! We do not let our kids online either! Sigh.... Let's not talk about the holes in the walls. :rolleyes: Gina, I am really feeling bad for the girl. Most ALL of her drama is her own making! She posts about everyone always betraying her and no one likes her and talks bad...

Ok, a word of caution for parents to pass on to their kids! (Mostly 'cause I am cracking up and I have to share with someone! :lol: ) And that if your kids post stuff on FB other ADULTS could see it!! The last few days on FB have been DRAMA with the teens from my church! ZA: "I am...

I have had money before and we are not making it like we used to and I am sure feeling it! We are definitely poor financially right now! But when I look at the ones that are spending like it is going out of style and taking all kinds of vacations I remind myself that with my CHOICES I should...

Sigh... it is the same thing here! We put up fly paper strips in the kitchen and the chair was left by it. Someone....not sure who...took a screwdriver of something and put like 5 little holes in the ceiling all around the fly paper strip. They started peeling the paint and drywall up around...

Hmmm...another one I remember is all of them sitting in a chair with their legs crossed reading the newspaper so you can't see their faces and then the first person asks the next and goes down the line saying (putting the paper down so you can see their face) "Is it time yet?" The last person...

My favorite from when I was in girl scouts...not really going to help here, sorry! A fully dressed scout came running (all dishelved and real dramatic) in with a styrofoam cup of (water) yelling "Fire! Fire!" or "Move! Move! Out of my way!" Then the person speaking stops them and asked...

We lost the little doeling today. :hit She was fine this morning and then we left to go to our church picnic and we came back and she had passed away. We were only gone for 4 hours. There is no obvious reason for it. She was eating good and everything. She was a little wobbly legged last...
