Smells like old lady...

I love Ebay...I'm somewhat addicted especially when looking for cool things on the cheap :) I've recently gotten back into cross stich and purchased a TON of embroidery floss for next to nothing. It arrived today in a large box and when I opened it I had to laugh. It smelled like old lady. Not like nasty stinky old lady, but like grandma, that kind of baby powder and person smell. I started cracking up because of course its one of those scents we all know. Then the GS shows up wondering what I'm busting a gut over. So I tell him. He's going, "It can't smell like that", so I proceed to shove the baggies of yarn at him. Then he loses it going "OMG it DOES smell like that." The funniest part is that it isn't the yarn that smells...its the plastic...

Le Tired

School has returned to the Ennis Ranch, with a few interesting changes....

1) The bus now arrives at ten minutes to 7...or 20 mintues to 7 the driver isn't really sure which it will be. A much much earlier time than last years 20 minutes AFTER 7. This means actually hauling out of bed around 6 rather than last years frantic jumping up at 7 and throwing the children out the door.

2) The kids managed to awaken themselves for the past couple of days. I don't expect that to last long, once the excitement of school beginning is over. I give them until tommorow.

Exciting eh? The only other huge thing I've been trying to do is actually check out this site, which has been innudated today.

Dear God I need a life...

PS--Apparently I also need a brain as I saved this instead of posting it...
