When the Dog Bites, When the Bee Stings, When I'm Feeling Sad...

Things that are awesome:
just the cherry....don't bother bringing anything non-frosted my way. What's the point?


Mmmm bagels. SO tasty.

but not without this:

The cheese can hold it's own without the bagel...but the story is not the same the other way around. Bagels must have cheese. Lots of it.

Yum.

"Much too good for children."

Things that make me happy to see.

The rules for garage sale-ing:
Always have a list of things you are looking for. (Dora bike, wooden bench, wheelbarrow found one today for $3 yahoo!)
Don't feel guilty for not buying anything.
Don't buy crap you don't need.
ALWAYS offer less than marked. If its $15 offer $10, if it's $1 offer 50 cents. Always.
If you see the homeowner smoking or caressing 100 cats, get back in your car and drive away. Ew.

The tearing down of the sports net. This was a father's day present for Aaron a few years ago. He really wanted it. I purchased it, under the impression that it was "collapsible" and only 3 or 4 feet tall. I was not aware that we would have a 7 ft nasty white mesh tent in the middle of our ward for 2 years. It's huge, it's ugly, it's impossible to mow around, so it's always surrounded by 2 feet of chigger filled weeds, and I swear I've seen homeless people camping out in there. He did use it, though. He really enjoyed it, too. Reese even drove her first few golf balls into it. I'm not sorry I bought it, since he enjoyed it so much....but I AM happy to see it go. Thank goodness for the thunderstorm that finally took that mother down.



Ahhh...sleeping children....a beautiful sight.

And since this is Aaron's blog too... a few of his favorite things:


I feel like I should give equal credit to the LA Dodgers for Aaron's sake....but I don't want to.
Go A's!
