The 18th Official Leisurely and Erudite Discussion for TPBM (18)

Man I just opened up a two pack of Reese's peanut butter cups and it looks like someone jammed their finger hard into one of them. That sucks, I can't eat that.

I did Cat. I have almost an entire fridge (the garage one) full of goodies. loaves and loaves and bags and bags of cookies. I'm almost done. Just baked caramel corn and fudge to go oh and lemon bars. That's all tomorrow.

Kona already has 3 or four nicknames.

Kona Nobis Pachem
Kone of Silence

That one would be the 'title' of a song... Dona Nobis Pachem.... instead it is Kona...One of my favorite songs to sing acapella in a round!


Ok seriously.... night now, I've finished the rounds of the house before turning in....

We went to the un-lake today, and lo and behold there was SNOW. A good amount of it too.
The girls had a BLAST. And I'm so glad I took my camera with me today.
I thought you'd like to see how desert dogs play in the snow.
This was Amikah's first time in snow that was deep enough to play in. Ginger's been in snow before, but it's been years.

Great photos!! The first one made me laugh.

G'mae all

Just to say hi. Still busy. Mum's still in hospital - probably be the New Year before she comes out. She's still really confused - with time and language . I'm not really doing a lot at the moment - work and visiting seems to be tiring me out at the moment. It doesn't help that I seem to have a lot of negative attitudes around me at the moment. I'm trying to stay as positive as possible but it's a bit tough at the moment so I thought I'd pop in for a bit of a lift. {{{{TPBM}}}}

It's helped just catching up a bit in here.

Hope your mom heals soon.

After my nap, I went to get my boys. They were at my parents house for the day. I collected all the baking goodies that they had made with my mom and headed off to CVS Pharmacy to get me some sinus meds. Got to CVS got to the pharmacy with the little card to collect my medicine. Realized that my drivers license wasn't in my wallet... So in tears headed out the door.... Got into the car, and started backing up... the SUV across the lot from me was doing the same. She says she beeped... I can barely hear my ears are so stopped up so I never heard it and ran right into her. I was already in tears... that just made me bawl.... She was very nice and it didn't do any damage so we went on our way. I was still pretty upset/frustrated.... So I'm driving through the parking lot of this strip mall where CVS (river ridge for Wooly) and a car pulled out in front of me. I had to slam on the brakes to avoid hitting the guy... in the process it THREW the boys cupcakes and cookies into the floor.... The guy just smiled at me and waved.... I burst into tears again.... I felt so bad about the cupcakes... I apologized to the boys all the way home. We pulled in the driveway and I looked between my feet... there was my drivers license... I guess when I slammed on the brakes it threw it out of where ever it fell... Sigh..... *slams back second glass and ponders how this will make me feel with the sinus meds, the pain meds for my back which is in pain tonight, and the asthma meds*

Sorry you had a rotten day.

Kona Turner Von (or Vaughn) Campbell

That sounds cool! I like the Von/Vaughn touch!

Make a snowflake.

I just made a new banner for my smugmug. Would you all take a quick look at it. I did the images in portrait but I don't like that and will change it to landscapes. This will also make the banner wider and move the slideshow up so that it is on the page.

In general do you like it? Try to envision the coming changes.

I'd still eat it....probably just the result of a mother wrestling the candy away from a child.
