that there has to be a male conspiracy involving sweeping floors. They MUST be some special prize they compete for that involves finding the most creative place to hide the floor dirt without actually using a dustpan.

Boys... little secret: if you put it in the garbage can, I will NEVER find it there.

Get a dust buster. Guys like cleaning better if they have 'power tools' that help to do the job. Very Happy

After three years of owning a brand new sewing machine, I FINALLY learned how to use it and hemmed my own pants today!!

*Skips around in circles*

I can't tell you how awesome this is for someone with short legs!!

there's not much that is more exciting than the thought of turkey dressing... especially right before Thanksgiving.

Turkey hands are not very good at opening canning lids.

I just sliced the top layer of skin off of my finger. I don't want to get stitches so I put a bandaid over it and it has finally stopped bleeding.

Just call me 'Frankenfinger'.

Turkey's have fingers????? Shocked

I took the tip of my finger off with a carpet knife when the grubs and i were alone at the cabin several years ago. I had no vehicle there. the tip sorta flew across the room. Grub 1 screamed that the dog was eating it. Grub 2 got real pale and ran downstairs to make tea (damn british genes). I stuck the tip back on, taped it together and bandaged it. now it looks like i have a little Jelly ToT candy stuck on there.

Good one Mary, get me going in a whole new direction, LOL.

I was just going to say, "NANO? I think I can...I think I can." I'm getting excited.

Thanks Mary. I want to prove you right more than anything. Day four and I'm 7662 in. It's looking doable. I'm happy though just seeing the ideas have started to flow.
