I do hate them and I can't wait to brush my teeth without them. It is such a project right now.

What is everyone working on right now? I am finishing up minis tonight.

Carrie~sure~I'll be right over to help peel those potatoes.

Here's another thing~the orthodontist kept repeating~"You're going to feel alot of pressure. Do you feel that pressure?" I wanted to scream. And yes the best part is that while they were reapplying the brackets and they have that lovely plastic thing that holds your lips out and make you look like a chimpanzee. Well, don't you know I had to cough. I was holding it in and tears are running down my face. I thought I was going to send all that stuff flying right out of my mouth. It's terrible because I had to sit there so long with them drying out my mouth and my throat got dry. It was all downhill from there.

Had to be there.

Jess~I have a beagle and she went crazy over a bunny one day and took off running. I had to chase her. I can relate. So not fun.

ooh, Jess, I know what you mean about the chasing the puppy, I'm having to chase either my husband's or daughter's dog around our neighborhood every now and then and it definitely is not fun, especially in the crusty snow! Especially when you get up within 2-3 feet of them and they turn and run as fast as they can the other direction...

Hi Ruth: I am good. Was really, really sick since Thursday (but still had to go to work:( and did a lot of sleeping all weekend. Felt icky this morning, went to work and as the day went on, got better. Just chilling out now, watching tv till bedtime. How are you?

Oh Jess: You know I love hoosiers too. Hope you get it. Mine is still my BEST piece of furniture ever.

Well, this guy thinks 100 is way too low, he really thinks he has a special item, but it has been painted, does not have original hardware, and is missing at least one door...I told him to let me know when he would be ready to take 100

Get a radio fence Jess & Suzan- you'll never chase a dog or lose one to a car again!
I LOVE ours- only cost around 100-200 for ours but it's a large area-maybe 2 acres are fenced.
Very easy to train them to it and easy to put in.

Blessings,

Jess: If anyone offers more than $100, they are paying too much. Especially if the hardware is not original, parts are missing and it's painted. You live in Hoosier land don't you?

Jess~When he doesn't get any better offers he will realize that 100 was a good one. What does he expect?

Sheryl-lyn~Sorry to hear you were sick. I'm doing ok~besides the dumb ortho visit.

Feeling a little tired now, so will sign off for the evening. 24 is on pretty soon, so will get settled on the couch (my bed while I am sick!!) and have some tea. Have a good night ladies. Miss you all now that I am so busy working all the time.

Autumn~it's amazing he made that from the junk pile. My son keeps asking me to show him the picture again. When I told him he did that in one afternoon he couldn't believe it.

By tomorrow he may have it wired or a jet booster to it
or it may be dismanteled and find a new life as....who knows what!!!!?
You should see some of his inventions!!!

His oldest brother did the same thing- ever hear of Domino Ralley?
That was my oldest boys invention-still have the paper and registration papers- the company that advertised for patent info took the idea to production within 6 months of his submission to them. We didnt have the cash to secure the patent or litagation to fight it-but he'll always get bragging rights from me!!!!
