I survived QVC day

I'd pat myself on the back but my shoulder has been killing me. I DID NOT buy anything from QVC yesterday. I really wanted the 12" long reach stapler but resisted. Buying from Hambo Stamps Monday--HAPPY Birthday Monica.....and buying the latest release from PapertreyInk (cute halloween stamps) this morning do not count.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Glad you enjoyed my "Orientation" story from yesterday. I asked DS again last night what the Jungle comment means. He insists that he made it up and has no idea where it came from.

Yeah. Right. OK.

Bad storm last night almost made me "Loose my religion" as they say. I was trying to type an email with an attachment and lost it.. twice. That was after waiting almost 2 hours to use the computer cause it was acting up and DH had to fix it. ERRRRRRRRRRR.

WOW, just realized it is HUMP DAY. Cool. Half way to my Birthday next week. Shameless plug. Cards, well wishes and gifts will be cheerfully accepted. (See note above about long reach stapler if you are looking for a gift idea) Hey, I'm older than most (well except for maybe my mom & Kip & Jules..Hi gals!!) of my readers. I'm at the age I can say anything I want. Yes, Mom & Michele, I know I have done that since about the time I was 21 but old age has to have some perks. Right? Now NEXT year I really expect to be showered with love.

You have been warned.

Til later......................

You're not older than ME, little Sis-in-law, lol!

The jungle comment cracked me up, too. Maybe he's read "The Blackboard Jungle" about inner city school life? School IS a jungle these days...

Be glad you only lost internet service in the storm--we had a tree struck by lightning Sun. night. It fell two hours later and took out the power & phone lines for this entire section of our neighborhood. What a mess--police, power co. trucks, phone co. trucks, tree svc. trucks, forestry trucks, trucks from two different cable companies, whose lines our tree also destroyed...and now we have to pay to get three trees removed from our yard before they do the same thing! Ugh!!!

Love you!

Uh hmm, Birthday is around the corner. My MIL is the same age but older by 3 months, so next year you both will have to have a big celebration! ((I'm a good girl and did not state the specific age.))

Cheryl-- email me your address :)

Btw, you did better than I did with QVC, although I only bought two things and then called back and cancelled one of them! Couldn't resist the Heidi Swapp card kit that was posted about 11:30 pm.
I got lots of cards made while watching television, which was great...I'll try to post them this weekend on my blog...
