There are sooo many...I bought some stick flameless candles to put on the mantle for Christmas.I hadn't ever heard of them but the directions looked easy enough (you have to put a battery in them) all I had to do was make sure I put them in the right way...simple...So I did and I really liked them but the best part is they are timed to come on at about 7 and turn themselves off at around midnight...Fabulous..I didn't put them away.I redid my mantle and included them..I love when they come on...So little money for such a lot of entertainment...Mr. Crabbypants being the Fire Chief that he is, loved them too. You can get them on Amazon,Ebay,Overstock.I'm trying to decide what kind and color. Some of them color change and some come timed,some even come with a remote...Yeah this is fun and there are OH So many places o put them...I need an equivalent of a vat of flameless candles..

We need a link. Of course. :D

We have FED Ex, and UPS boxes right next to the USPS boxes.I was in line when someone brought a Fed Ex pick up note to the post office to pick up the package.I live in a small town.He looked so bewildered...like what is Fed Ex?... Aren't you all one and the same?..So Rose (our counter clerk) walked him thru calling the number and told him if he wanted it left at the door he needed to sign a certain part of it..Rose is a pro and an asset to the PO...She was a Marine in a past life and you can tell it.

Along the lines of getting your wires crossed, we had a customer come in today asking if we had seen a FedEx package she had mailed before Christmas (12/20)!! :blink: I think that was the weirdest question I've ever been asked! :lol:

And just so ya know, on the off chance that someone did drop a FedEx parcel/envelope in a USPS mailbox - one of the guys would have dropped it into the FedEx box across the street on their way home. :) And mistaken UPS stuff gets taken two doors down and handed to the brown guys. :)

I still quietly binge on Nutella...and Klondike Bars and Orange colored popcorn...As far as the bread and milk.I do nothing with them.That's why I have 4 loaves of bread and 2 gallons of milk.It keeps snowing here so everyday I sen Mr. Crabbypants to Walmart to get more..It's a snowfall rule...I think it's under 4652R of the Union County revised code...I'm not kidding...

VERY. I'll be completely at ease once my last folder is fully restored.


And what does one do with 4 loaves of bread and 2 gallons of milk?

Did you remember the Nutella?


:facepalm:

Of course we do...


Liked and unliked. I made a preemptive like.

You should live with Fire Chief Crabbypants....I light my Yankee's and he has a meltdown..Get it a meltdown??

That's a pretty neat concept. It would work good here since Alex blows out all the candles I light. He's afraid of the fire hazard. :facepalm:

See..We all need to get them..I want one in my bathrooms and on my kitchen table and sofa table and ....It's almost as fun as buying Provari's..I said almost...because there is no greater joy than a Provari with PIEunless it's an MVP with HOUSE..

The ones my BF has is made of wax and run on batteries. They have an adjustable flame and the little bit of heat from the bulb makes it smell just like a scented candle. Neat

Nothing is less creepy when dressed in a TuTu...
Naaaahhh. It's going to be clothed when I can get a tutu made for it this weekend. :laugh: Yes, I'm serious. So maybe he's a she. She came with her head detached. :lol: And I got her for a purpose, as a mannequin for my new stuff I'll start to sell soon.

I have lost almost 10 pounds.I attribute it do my new diet of orange popcorn and Klondike bars at midnight.It seems to really take it off you...
And with that... Im going to stretch out on the couch and let my awesome dinner settle and read a book. Mrs E made breakfast for dinner. Complete with pancakes (thanks to Bisquick), eggs, sausage, and BACON. And Im STILL under my calorie limit today!!!

Yeah, Im back on trying to lose some weight... Not as a resolution, but just because it needs to be done.

Goodnight all!

I'm still using it for my next puppy or....I can name the feral kitty cat that sleeps on our porch Biojux...It needs the X tiff.It's not the same without the X.
And the winner is Bijou. I literally wrote the names down, crumpled them up and had hubby pick one. What does it mean again? Jewel did you say?

Thank you for helping me name the tutu dog. :laugh:

They won't care.They will just pee on it...
I think it fits. Especially once she gets clothed and positioned next to the fireplace. Did I mention that she has moveable limbs? I can position her to sit, stand or lay down. Wonder what the dogs will think?

That goes without saying.Anyone that would dress a dog live or dead in an ugly Christmas sweater IS creepy...
I'll tell you what is creepy. I had a client once that had their dog stuffed. It was a shih-Tzu I think. Anywho, the whacky lady kept it on her dresser and changed it's clothes for whatever holiday it was. That's weird. And creepy.
