Thanks, Jen, for the Military Spouse Day notice! Thanks to all the spouses of this great military of ours. :)

[Billie]

You will, of course, forgive me if I don't thank my ex-wife, for whom one man just wasn't enough while I was deployed overseas....

Yikes! :(

[Billie]

Hi, Dansy girl.

"The table and the book? Tables have legs, but books?"

The table would carry the book on its surface! Without the book, the table would have no reason to leave.

Haven't you seen "The Brave Little Toaster" series?

[Terabitten]

Yikes! :(

Fear not. Life is much better now, Miss Billie. :)

[Billie]

It was the most awesome thing! To watch it all happening so close...to hate to disturb them when we did have to answer the door or something. :)

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Oooooh. No I have not seen "The Brave Little Toaster" series. Are they books or videos? Are they books and I should wait for the video?

[Billie]

Thank you for that precious picture, Billie.

Welcome. :)

I missed it when you posted it before.

It's been a couple of years. :)

If it happens again, put up a sign, "Go to the back door, please do not disturb the bird family."

I have seen birds build a nest on someone's front door wreath before, but I don't remember now who's door it was on. But like you they did not use their front door much either.

[Billie]

I think you and MamaBear are hooked so I won't have to worry about running low. LOL

You got that right! I have the *most* fun doing them!

[JustAmy]

" a mild obscenity in Serbian relating to her parentage. "

LOL .... good for you.

The children suffer when a marriage fails. I've known couples who stayed together for the children. I think the children see thru this. Just make sure she knows she is loved.

"maybe there's a FReeper lady out there ."

We do have some single FReeper ladies. Hope you meet one of them.

[Billie]

:) I shouldn't have said anything - realized that after *you* posted *you* shouldn't have said anything! LOL!

At any rate, the best is (probably) yet to come! :)

[NicknamedBob]

They are kids videos. I wouldn't go further than recommending the first one.

Warning: It is syrupy-cute, so don't watch it without at least a four-year old escort. My personal favorite is the radio character. Picture Conspiracy Guy as the vacuum cleaner. (Sorry, Guy, the role sucks, but he's the hero.)

I'm not afraid. God has a plan for my life. Just because He hasn't seen fit to tell me about it yet doesn't mean He doesn't have one.

[Billie]

Right now, our door is bare - no wreath! Not because of birds and bird nests - just because it was time to replace or refresh 'that' wreath and I never have! :)

[JustAmy]

LOL

We look forward to seeing you again soon. Hmmmm ..... now you need to work that into your busy schedule. ; )

[Terabitten]

Yeah, I read Amy's reply and I was shocked at how bitter and jaded I sounded. I'm really not that way, I promise! :) Most days I'm a happy wolf -- just ask Amy :)

[Mama_Bear]

Great, great, great!!! You have captured their cranky little personalities perfectly! LOL!!

You write those poems so quickly! It just comes to you? Nothing like that ever just comes to me. LOL.

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

LOL!

So where do I get it?

[NicknamedBob]

You are all poets in training. It isn't the ability to rhyme words, it's in the way you look at the world.

Confirmation, Guys?
