In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of “word for the day”. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of the day”; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Subbie Slip has her whip, handcuffs and legcuffs today.
The rest of the stuff is locked up in my drawer. I’m just letting all the new students know that we behave as if we were ladies and gentlemen in here. Those two words “as if” can get you an A if you make the subbie laugh.

GMTA!!!!!!!!
we are watching the same thing, gabz.... : )
i am freeping, watching fox and baking, it doesn't get any better than this. i just made a huge batch of DOG TREATS for the bake sale. using T5's recipe that she gave me last year.
I"m sorry...truly
I'm freeping, have fox on in the other room, have my dining room table covered in Jax clothes........sorting the stuff to store for next year, what goes to the food bank and what goes into the rag bag. and all the laundry is done!!!
I'm glad it's raining........gives me more incentive to do the stuff in the house that needs done, then I don't have to spend my weekend doing it.
Jax found a recipe in her reading book for sidewalk chalk.........so I promised her we would do that Sunday. It calls for the shells of 8 eggs...there is my incentive for making my crepes for canneloni.
I was just going to ask you to email me that recipe......... my niece has a baby dog this year and I want to make those treats for a Christmas present..........
sure, i will. it is easier than cookies, i swear, even though it is a roll out recipe.
I am fussing in the kitchen getting ready to bake pumpkin bread and watching Fox.........
don't we all sound so housewifey???????
- I think NOT! We are multi-tasking.
that's me, HAUSFRAU : )
LOL!!!!!!!!!!
Be sure to write to Sen. Frist and tell him to just say NO to Sen. Specter in charge of Judiciary.
So cute!!!!!!!
Hubby informed me that when we lose our big girl (she's 11) there will be no more inside dogs.......sigh.
I like Ti's description better!!!!!
Good Morning Slip. Todays word reminds me of a court decision in Utah some years back. (Beautiful place, but, I don't live there). The court determined:
The new legislation is more pornographic than the movies and acts it seeks to regulate, and truly is an antinomy of itself.
well you guys like big dogs and having those inside would be problematic. Lucius is 17 lbs fullgrown and perfect inside, in fact, he won't go OUTSIDE if it is raining, cold or snowy : ) he is a PANSY in other words.
