Miscellaneous Stuff ***Update***

First of all, what's up with all the wise ass anonymous commenters on the last post? "Anonymous" annoys the hell out of me when you don't sign your name. Plus didn't you read down a few posts where I discuss my sitemeter? You're never really anonymous. I can find you. Now I appreciate a smart ass as much as the next guy. Because I am one, too. And the comments weren't bad. But if you're going to step up and say it, at least have the balls to sign your name to it. It's a pet peeve of mine. And yes, it's a public blog that anyone can read. But when you comment, I feel like you are ~in essence~ speaking directly to me. I wouldn't come into your house without introducing myself. Don't make me have to start moderating my comments and deleting all the anonymous ones. Just play nice. Enough about that...

****Update***** Mystery solved. It has been confirmed. The smart ass anon is my little brother. ALL of the anon comments are him.....and have been for quite awhile. Even as adults they never stop screwing with you. Geez.... Oh and this is proof that smart ass-edness runs in the family. Yes I just made up my own word.

I owe an overdue thank you to my super cool Secret Pal. Here's what I got this month. Neat, huh? I love these Baby Einstein DVD's. This is one that teaches sign. Love it. Thanks SP!

These came from my blogger buddies, Dawn, Jacob & Lily over at Eggrolls & Chopsticks. Penguin biscuits all the way from the UK! Now here we just call them cookies. Hmmm...maybe they did taste a little fancier since they were British and all. I'm glad I took a pic cuz they didn't last long. De-lish! Thanks guys!
I'm making progress on my bedroom re-do. I've only had the time and energy to tackle it a little at a time. Which is why I've had a ladder in there for nearly 3 months now. But it's getting there. Pics soon.

ABSOLUTE FINAL LAST CALL FOR QUILT SQUARES!
And I mean it this time. My grandma is coming next Friday from Wisconsin to pick up the fabric.We'll spend a few hours looking through the squares, figuring out a pattern and deciding on fabric for the edging and reverse side. Then she'll go home and start the work on it. So if you want to be included in Mia's 100 Good Wishes Quilt this is your last chance to get me a square. Seriously. Last chance. If it doesn't get here by Friday, I can mail it on to her. BUT IT NEEDS TO GET HERE SOON or you'll be S.O.L. Click on the quilt link in the sidebar to scroll through what we have so far if you can't remember if you sent one or not. Drop me an e-mail if you're gonna send one. And thanks to everyone who contributed! I can't wait to see how it turns out.

My sister, Carla, jumped on the blogger train awhile back. You can follow her crazy life as the mother of four over at Tales Of The T's. Now we've gotten my brother on board too. Well, it's actually his girlfriend's blog but he has a starring role. Check out Travis, Kristy and her son, Braeden over at My Little Man. For anyone in the family that's wants to follow them regularly, there are links to both blogs in my sidebar. Now you'll never have to wonder what we've been up to cuz you can just read it. Why didn't we think of this sooner?? Certainly saves on long distance calls ....and you get to see pics of all the kids! Cool!

That's all I got for ya today. Peace out.

Great Gifts! I love the little piggy puppet or is it a sponge? Which ever it's adorable! I am going to have to check out some of the Baby Einstein videos.

Cool penguin biscuits! Dawn is so sweet!

Super cool goodies!

Anonymous comments on blogs annoy me, too. I haven't gotten any on mine yet, though. I'm hoping for some really ridiculous ones someday, haha.

Great gifts...

Hey, one of those anon's probably doesn't have the cajones to tell you he's 'David' ;0)

~Kristen said...

How annoying the anonymous people can be... I just don't get that!

Great SP gifts :o)

Abby's Mom said...

I'm thinking it was probably the same anon commenter each time. Some people just don't have anything better to do, Unfortunately.

Cute gifts :)

O.K. I am guilty of being the anonymous smart ass. Yes, all the comments are mine. Did not think you would have any problem figuring it was me. After all, you have known me for THIRTY years!
Love Ya,
Lil' Bro

Oh yeah, and I DON'T have anything better to do!

It's all in the family eh? ;0)

I give you props for your post though, it would have certainly scared the shite out of me if I were posting anon!

Great goodies! I can't believe someone thought of you when they saw penguins, funny. I'm still watching Connie's penguin video trying to figure out how I can get me one for a pet.

Cool cookies! That trio are fab. Love the SP gifts!

Keep smilin!

Krista you're a girl after my own heart! I would've said the exact same thing to anonymous posters on my blog. I'm not afraid to speak my mind and if you don't like it well, too bad! So far I haven't had any anon posts, but I'm just waiting for them! BTW, aren't younger brothers fun!!!!

Briana's Mom said...

Love the goodies! That is so funny that the anon was your brother. After all these years, he can still get under your skin!

dawn said...

I got my first anon comment today and even though it wasn't bad it bothered the hell out of me!

M and M said...

That's what siblings are for - to mess with your mind!!

Great SP gifts!!

Can't wait to see what the quilt will look like.

Donna said...

Tao's Mommy said...
