Need Something?

We are on the final week of school wind-up and I am again meeting myself in the doorway, so I'm sorry, blogging is on the bottom of my priority list. However, since I value my friends (and people paid to come read here), I will provide a public service instead.
Don't bother working up a sweat trying to find that special item only available through a military base "For Sale" site-- I've done it for you.

Today's ads:

"pink strip dress". Yes, this dress from Mini Mode will be perfect for your 0-3 month-old daughter to do all of her Gypsy impersonations. Watch this site for pole dancing gear for your one year-old.

"Single Person Wanted for Trip Oct ". Yes please. Oh, you need a single person.
"Need info on cakes and beer kegs ". Nothing like a good stout to go with red velvet cake. Yum Yum.

"baby fluufy coat with ears". No matter how many times I google, "Fluufy" doesn't come up. I'm assuming one with ears must be pretty special.

"outdoor kids scooter ". This is really getting educational. I didn't even know they made indoor scooters. We had an indoor toddler's bike just after Christmas...
"native american indian tribes". I'm not entirely sure, but I don't think the sale of people is legal. A whole tribe? Where did this person pick this item up? How did they get it over here? Maybe that's not a sale item, maybe it's an incomplete sentence, or a declaration?

"Dinning/Pool/Ping-pong Table" I have been doing things wrong. I didn't know that one could dine (dinn?) as well as play ping pong at suppertime. My kids are going to LOVE this.
A little confused about the "pool". I'm assuming I should put a cue ball on the table and not try to fill it with water. That would make my food soggy I think.


I have responded to the trip ad and she hasn't returned my email. Do you think the five kids may have tipped her off that I'm not over here by myself?

Son Number One is on hold. Call me silly, but I had NO IDEA that Americans were queuing up to join the forces, but apparently that is the case. My J1's ASVAB testing date is the 3rd, so even though all of his paperwork is in with the Air Force, he has to just sit and wait for a couple of more weeks.



Here's what he does with his spare time:




Most people get photos of their kids in college or of their children's children. THIS is what I get in my email in box. FYI, his zoom lens isn't that great. He's an in-your-snakey-face photographer.

And no, I don't even freak out when he says he's been bitten by a sidewinder, scorpion or a rattlesnake. Again.

He should take out an ad:

"Snake Wrangler available for Children's Parties".

Anyone interested?

  1. Beautiful snakes but being bitten by them is definitely not on my bucket list.
    The Dinning/Pool/Pong Table sounds great! I love swimming and eating. My grandkids will love this one!
    And the pink strip dress cracked me up. Ha!
    Have a great day!
    Hugs

  2. Good luck to son #1. I'd say it's time for a career change, although PT Reptile around here makes a lot of money doing children's parties. Just sayin'.

    Love your list, although I will cop to having had a "baby fluffy coat with ears". It was adorable!

  4. I am very interested in the native American tribe. Is it local pick-up only or will the seller ship?

  5. What, no indoor scooter?! I was so hopeful.

  6. How about? Snake wrangler available for dinning adventures and knows about beer parings with cakes.

  7. I'm feeling quite fluufy today! :D

    Snakes--ACK! I'm not too much a fan of those. I wouldn't be getting in their face to take a picture. I'd be running the other way if I saw them in my vicinity. Hope you're having a good week, J! :-)
