Ten Little Known Facts (if you care)

1.  A stray crayon in the dryer can wreak havoc on every single item in there.  (A large load of towels with blue spots all over them.)

2.  It will cost all of $10,000 to convert the garage to a Grandma room.  (Care to contribute?)

3.  A different grandchild is sick.  (Everyone has been well...what?...two weeks??)

4.  There are no exits between Brazil, IN, and Putnamville, IN, on I-70 east out of Terre Haute.  (I left my purse in a Terre Haute restaurant on Thursday after a textbook adoption fair.  Discovered the purse missing AFTER I passed the Brazil exit.  Thirty miles to turn around, go back, get the purse; then thirty miles back to where I turned around, and points east.  Sixty mile mistake!  So much for getting home early!)

5.  One 40-pound dog can make bigger messes than two pre-schoolers.  (Shredded tissues, poop on the floor, missed pads for urine, and one pile of dog barf at my feet in the computer room.  Anyone want a dog???)  And on the same note, my granddaughter attempted to step over the dog yesterday.  The dog got angry and actually chased Robin, growling, down the hall.  She only stopped when Robin got to me.  If Frodo had connected, she would be toast by now.  As it was, we just warned the granddaughter about the dog.  Sheesh!

6.  Chuck E. Cheese on a Saturday evening is a whacko place to be.  (Need I say more?)

7.  I can have a 4-day weekend next weekend if we don't have to take a snow day between now and then.  (Temps are dropping as I type.  Hopefully, the bitter cold that is predicted won't keep us out of school all week!)

8.  Christmas "stuff" that isn't put away just after New Year's will still be awaiting closure by Valentine's Day.  (I'm drowning!)

9.  God has a plan for all of us.  (We just don't know what it is, yet!)

10.  Fat doesn't go away by itself.  (I haven't figured out the secret yet.  Sewing lips shut?)

Hope your weekend is going well.

:)
