Getting Ready for Christmas 2010!

Have implemented “my buy something every month” for Christmas idea. I began today and now have something picked out for darling daughter for January and February! By December of next year… I’m going to be so ready for Christmas!! And if there is a deal to be found… I’m going to find it! This should make Christmas so much easier and much more affordable!

In Love With Ice Cream… is there anyone who doesn’t like it?? I do remember one occasion when my mom and dad wanted to make my eighteen birthday party really special and invited the entire family as well as a ton of friends to our house. Being the girly girl that I am, mom picked up this huge bucket (the kind that restaurants have) of strawberry ice cream. It was pink!! Well, someone goofed. It wasn’t pink. It was orange and black and tasted about as bad as it looked. Okay, I guess it would have been okay if you liked orange ice cream with licorice swirls. Too bad my birthday hadn’t been in October. It would have been really cool lol…

If each of us were to confess his most secret desire, the one that inspires all his plans, all his actions, he would say: “I want to be praised.

Just a Reminder

This might be a good time to test all of your smoke detectors to see if the batteries need changing. While you are at it, check the carbon monoxide detector too. Never know when they will be called into action.

My Shopping Trip

Well, it’s still on, but I still have that load of towels to wash. Actually they have been washed and now they are waiting to be hung to dry.  How can one family use soooo many towels in one week?

I Really Hate Salmon

Did I ever mention the fact that I really, really hate salmon. I tried again last night to eat the Teriyaki Salmon that my husbund cooked for me and it really should have been good… but it wasn’t. I just can’t stand the stuff. I don’t like the texture or the taste. I think what it all comes down to is something that I read years ago… which probably isn’t the case anyway, but it said something to the effect that the fish was full of little worms that would simply die when the fish was cooked, so it really couldn’t hurt you. So, if you read that, could you eat the stuff??

Somebody tell me that it isn’t true… please.
