    Nah I agree dara is good, heck they're all really good comedians, russel howard and franky boyle are my favourite panelists though, (david mitchel is my favourite comedian at the moment though :D )

    Morning guys!

    I redhed35,a mere woman,have just plumbed my new washing machine...

    All on my own!

    It was a bit messy, but I figured it out...

    As I was up too my back teeth in instructions,pipes and wrenches,my two teenage daughters looked on...

    I turned to them and said...

    This is what singles parents have to do!

    The thing about been a single parent is you have to learn to be meek and helpless to get help,or become independent and do it yourself... im a do it yourself kind of gal.

    I should really thank my ex husband...

    I listened to his constant yammering about D.I. Y for years,I guess something sunk in..

    Yeah, being independent is the way to go, meek and helpless isn't even attractive.

    Aaaah... Red, you have a spot of grease on your nose. :)

    Your up early stringer.

    Ciara my daughter is playing with the box the washing machine came in,she's 8,and still gets a kick out of the big boxes.

    What are the odds?
  • Oct 24, 2009, 04:54 AM

    Well, I have no doubt it will be a hut, a space ship,a car and god knows whatever else she will think of.

    I bet if I told her santa was bringing her a cardboard box for christmas she would not be too happy.

    But sure,right now she's playing away,leave her off,at least she is not wreaking my head looking to go places.

    That's a plus Red.

    I spilled a half cup of hot coffee al over the front of me. Argh!! Not going the best so far today.

    I am usually up around 5:30 AM even though I try to sleep in on the weekends.

    Cloudy, messy, drizzle. Chilly (about 40 degrees). After all that wind and rain yesterday, I have to go out and put my Halloween displays back together today. The wind was so strong yesterday that it knocked over my wood stacked for the fire pit.

    I like spring and summer better.

    Now I get to drive a stick and I never fully learned. At least it is a truck at work and if I tear up the clutch I won't get in trouble. Wish me luck. Its been a couple years since I tried.

    My kids always did the same Red. A couple years the boxes seemed more important that the gifts at Christmas.

    You'll do fine Adam, once you learn how to drive a stick, you always know and adjust.

    You are right Stringer. I hopped in it and took right off with no problem. Didn't kill it or anything. That was nice. Thanks for the confidence Stringer. Sorry to hear about your decorations. I hate windy days. At work I have to pick up paper that blows off the working face and at home I have to pick up crap that has blown everywhere. Haha

    Yesterday I went to Target Store and when I was there I saw their Halloween display and asked them if I could have their thick cardboard coffin that was there when they were done. They gave it to me, so today I am going to staple and cover it with a plastic, black table cloth and put it in my display too. I love doing this stuff, it should add to it. Have to be careful so I don't put too much out there and it looks jambled up...

    I'll post some pics later.

    Yeah, once you learn how to drive a stick, it's fun. I considered getting one in my C-70 but with Chicago traffic it's a 'bear' to constantly use the clutch.

    I would really like to see the pics when you get it done. I like driving around sometimes and looking at halloween decorations. Some people over do it and it looks bad so I understand you not wanting to over do it but I think yours will look awesome when it is done. I will get the chance to decorate mine sometime in the future.

    I would like to get a stick sometimes because I find them fun and I would finally master it and it would become second nature to me. I drive a lot of open roads so it wouldn't be bad. I could see it being bad in chicago. Hills are bad enough for me when I am stopped on them.

    It's fun to decorate adam, I really enjoy doing it and trying to be creative. I used some orange lights this year also.

    Yeah I learned on a 440 Mag Dodge with 400 hp, it was fun.

    Got to run to the store bud, later.

    See you later Stringer.

    I learned on a 97 jeep wrangler, then a 86 ford ranger. Haha, then a 80 something camero. They were all fun.
