Babysitting a ...... fish!

Yes that's what I mean. I am the proud temporary custodial parent of a beta fish named Sooie. Dana left the fish in my possesion when she returned to college for her last two weeks of her first wonderful semester of college. Please note the name of said beta..... Sooie!

My instructions are simple and clear. Feed him once in the morning and once in the evening and don't let him die. Well they seem simple and clear. There appears to be a major flaw in this procedure. I can't remember if I fed him. I walk past Dana's room and Sooie's temporary housing area several dozen times a day and I'm seriously afraid, he is either hungry or stuffed. I try to retrace my steps to determine if it is time for food, but retracing doesn't update the memory process.

The other unforeseen problem is the fact that Lucy, our spoiled childlike dog, is obsessed with sitting in the floor and barking at Sooie. She appears to be jealous that Sooie has her own room.

I'm seriously afraid that I should not be trusted with grandchildren. I'm just saying.

Happy Thanksgiving

We hope everyone has a wonderful, safe, healthy and happy Thanksgiving! Enjoy!

Making a list and checking it twice.....

What is your favorite color(s)? Good news is fabric comes in all colors!

Favorite Candy/snack? I’m just not likely to turn any kind down.

Magazine? Quilting, scrapbooking and cooking but the list is endless really.

What size sock do you wear? Normal size, bright crazy colors.

What is your LEAST favorite smell? I really can’t deal with coconut.

Do you prefer to write with a pencil or pen? Depends on the job I’m doing at the time. Pencil is fine if I’m just jotting a thought or two, pen if I’m signing checks.

What bookstore do you go to? I try to stay out of any bookstore because I spend way to much money in there.

What else do you want us to know? I’m a little compulsive about buying the perfect gift for everyone on my list so I’m secretly looking for gift receipt approval. Be warned.
