The whiteboard

My family is definitely on the "artistic" side. One example of this is the rather fair sized white board we have hanging in our kitchen for important information. Well what could be more important than expressing one's creativity?



This is our white board. As you can see, we started with the best intentions of having Ali's work schedule at the top...then it all went downhill.


The duck was just a doodle by Alicia. I just like the expression on his face.





Then, for some reason, she drew this paranoid booberry...looks a little stressed.

Then she really got creative and made the "loo berry," followed by my personal favorite...the "moo berry."


















Of course, then Kelly had to throw his two cents in with the "shoo berry" and so Alicia went with the "Atchoo berry!" Then she went "screw berry," which could have been way
worse. .. such as Her "poo berry, " and Kelly's "Jew berry!" How un P.C!














Well, you knew I was going to add my own little something, so I went with the "spew berry." How many things rhyme with "blue" anyway?!? This last one, Alicia was grasping at straws with the "glue berry."
They can't all be masterpieces, I guess. LOL.


Sigh....There's no room left...we're gonna have to wipe it down and start again with something new and equally inane. Take care blogging buds!

So my car met it's new mechanic the other day. We had it towed to this guy who came highly recommended by a client of mine. It was the weirdest thing...we took it in, we waited until the next day, we gave him some money, and we drove away in my running, heated car. It was so smooth. sigh.

Well, there was one day that I had to travel by bus to the beauty supply store. I had no choice. Kelly was going to take me, but his car crapped out on the side of the road the night before. Can you believe our luck? Anyway, don't even get me started on that.

I was chatting with a client about my bus experience (two buses there, and two buses back, but whose counting?) and she told me a funny bus story about her friend.

This girl gets on the bus one day, and takes an empty seat to rest her bones. She glances around the bus half noticing that there are some people standing, even though there were a few empty seats. "mmmmmm, I smell parmigiana cheese," she thinks to herself as she ponders dinner possibilities. "I think I'll have pasta tonight."
Coming out of her thoughts, the girl looks down at her feet to discover she's had them sitting in barf for the entire bus ride.

LOL! Isn't that hilarious? I was laughing out loud while typing it. Poor thing will never be able to have parmigiana again without associating it with some strangers barf.
