[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

move out and draw fire

Congrats Deena! May you and your family have many many many happy years there.

I too had a Sunshine Family.

I bought a Magic Eraser on a whim, and the DH has become seriously addicted, wandering around the house looking for things to clean.

In related news, today was Spring Cleaning day. Several loads of dishes, laundry, much stuff earmarked for disposal. Windows thrown open to let in the birdsong and spring breezes. I also managed to make a bunch of baby food (chicken "kiev" with broccoli, pancetta with spinach, carrot and lentil stew) and we walked to Don Corleone's Creperie for lunch.

Exhausted, but happy.

I really see my Mother's point on Barbie. And she wasn't as hard-line as my Aunt who was a real bitch about it (well, about most things, really). But the cookies was going too far, dammit. Suddenly she cares about my work ethic? I wanted the damn t-shirt.

Your tag here.

Magic Eraser

Somewhere some marketing goons are wondering what the hell is causing this spike in sales of Magic Erasers.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Alas, Trudy, we have not the same mother, as I did not have the Sunshine Family. I had home-made dolls....

Which, actually was a good thing, because I learned how to sew and cut my design teeth making outfits for the dolls.

Mostly lurking...

Just talked to my little brother.

He's looking at buying a house.

Both of my brothers are going to own houses before me. Both of my brothers are going to be grownups before me.

I suck. I feel like a total failure. This is not a good day.

my little sister had the sunshime family. but there were barbies every wear. Barbies were fun to dress, but the sunshine family ment actually makeing clothes and furniture - so I think they were more fun.

vw- some people raise family, have jobs, find friends ,etc - and never own a house. sorry, haveing a house is not the only thing that defines a grown up.

Dealing with difficulties - part of what turns you into a grownup.

You've had your share.
