Gosh. I hope this never catches fire! It is fire season though. There are lots of unexplained fires.

I love it -- but I fear the jealousy it will inspire.

well i got a nice sweater that is a size too small and a turtle neck... i can't wear turtle necks i have no neck as it is.



Just got back from my in-laws from our final Christmas get-together.  This year my in-laws got me a toaster.  But this time, hidden in the crumb tray was $250.  I must say they've improved from the folding chairs I got several years ago.  I'm likin my inlaws more and more.

I think I can find something a little better to spend it on.  Besides, I still have the last ones they gave me.  They get used maybe once a year.
