Drama Last Night

t2003 0130power out0005
We had a bit of drama last night.
The wind knocked down a power line. The neighbors across the street were kind of funny.
They had parked their cars under the power lines.
When the lines came down they were trying to get the cars moved.
They were running around like chickens with ….

“WHERES THE KEYS’
WHERE IS THE DOG”
Etc…
If it were me, forget the cars they are replacable I am not

Anyway, the cops were first on the scene – then the Fire Trucks showed up.
The one that got me was the AMBULANCE, NO ONE was hurt , that was just too funny.

Practical Jokes

new host While I was surfing the net the other day I ran across this site Practical Jokes Shop
They have:
MAGNETIC BUMPER STICKER
SHATTERED WINDOW
RUDE & INSULTING FAKE PARKING TICKET
Just to name a few.
There are some funny Practical Jokes there!

Handmade Soaps

The other day Suzie and I went the local craft fair here in Holland.
We walked around for a couple of hours and there were a lot of cool crafters there.
The only thing we did buy was some handmade soap
While I an not into that kind of thing I was very impressed with it.
I got the Bay Rum, this is from their site about the handmade soap Great Lakes Soap Co.
“The scent is spicy, crisp and sharp. Formulated to be used as a shaving soap, but also makes a great shower bar to be used on your face or on your whole body. The addition of cocoa butter makes it a moisturizing bar with a thicker lather. Also great for women to use in the shower for shaving.”
I have tried some other Handmade Soaps that did not live up to what they said.
But Great Lakes Soap Co. has an outstanding soap.
They also offer Gift Boxes so if you are looking for a gift here you are.

Confessions of a Bingoholic

I have been playing online BINGO at a site called BINGOS.Com Everyone at the site is really friendly and I have done well there. We had a tournament last night and I tied for 2nd place ( $300 ) . It was fun ! This is the best bingo site that I have found , not alot of people and Jackpots that can actually be won !

New Shed

Sue has won so much money at BINGO

that we decided to build a new shed.
We had been wanting a shed for a long time.
We looked at a lot of the pre-built ones from the hardware stores.
They just wanted too much for them.
I know I can build a shed for less and have a better one.

We are good to go with a 8 foot by 10 foot and a flat roof.
I hope to have some pics of the project soon!
