Isn't it funny the songs we make up try to help  I had a little boy tell me the other day that I was silly. Now he was in Kindergarten, but at least he knows what he's talking about ;D We always dance around in the morning. So by the end of the school year, at least a dozen kids will be morning people ;D Oh they think it's great if they start talking at once an dI cover up my ears and LOUDLY sing LALALALALALALALA. They know to stop too  Oh about the witch......if he sees you writing it all the time, it isn't any wonder  The peanut gallery is now dismissed ;D |

LOL !! Hey.... I prefer Jacob's spelling of that word!!  As for the singing ... oh boy ... I rarely tried that one .. Singing and me just don't go together well!! ...  I remember trying out for the school choir when I was about 11 (I didn't actually REALISE I couldn't sing at that point!! ) and I gave that audition my VERY best shot ... but what I can remember is the teachers shaking their heads amongst each other in despair... and NO I didn't get into the choir!!  Still .... who needs to be able to sing anyway  WITCH brings me back to Jacob and his spelling!! LOL .... ;D ;D |

hey! Whatever works I say! I've always noticed how easily and quickly kids can learn song lyrics, so I always helped Cami with difficult words through singing. It always worked too.

I saw on the weather channel where y'all are already having lows of 39. We're still in the 60's for lows and 80's for highs. supposed to be 85 today. But, we have a "cold" front coming through this weekend that'll drop us into the 70's next week. Reckon I better break out the coat! ;D |

NO THANKS, I listen to my husband whine as it is. We are constantly going back and forth with the thermostat. He turns it up I turn it back down. We don't even tell each other anymore, or we would get into a big arguement, so it's fighting without words around here Then again the kids want to run around with shorts on and complain its cold. GO PUT SOME CLOTHES ON!!!!!! >:(DUH |

Linda, Of course you know I was kidding! But you're right when you say I would probably freeze there in Michigan! I have a nephew that passed away many years ago in December. My brother was living in Hammond, Indiana at the time. Of course we all went up there for the funeral and one day while up there we went into Chicago! Man, that wind there was cutting thru me like a razor! I have NEVER felt such cold - 'course us southerners didn't quite have the coats y'all have to equip us for it! Luckily my sil had one that fit, plus snow boots. The ground was so hard from the cold and snow they couldn't dig my nephews grave! We also went another time in July, and my bro took us to the great lakes to swim. I step into that water and it felt like needles pricking me! Brrr! I remember wearing a sweater alot, esp. at night, and thinking how weird it was to be doing so in July!
