My pond and rubber duckies
My pond is being invaded with rubber duckies....My tadpoles are running out of room to swim around..Do you have any idea who would do this? I thought of alot of people as suspects, including the blog elf..The blog elf has been gone for a long time now..I did find his picture on ties..I wonder if he is selling ties now? Did he have a fallout without Santa? I hope not..He could be trying to make some extra cash for the holidays...They are coming up pretty darn quickly..The holidays will be here before you know it...If you have any ideas, please let me know...I hope this not from the fallout with Speedy or somebody else....

Basic rules for driving
1. Turn signals will give away your next move. A real driver never uses them. 2. Under no circumstances should you leave a safe distance between you and the car in front of you, or somebody else will fill in that space putting you in an even more dangerous situation. 3. Crossing two or more lanes in a single lane-change is considered "going with the flow." 4. The faster you drive through a red light, the smaller the chance you have of getting hit. 5. Never get in the way of an older car that needs extensive bodywork. The other guy doesn't have anything to lose. 6. Braking is to be done as hard and as late as possible to ensure that your ABS kicks in, giving a nice, relaxing foot massage as the brake pedal pulsates. For those of you without ABS, it's a chance to stretch your legs. 7. Speed limits are arbitrary figures, given only as suggestions and are apparently not enforceable in the metro area during rush hour. 8. Please remember that there is no such thing as a shortcut during rush-hour traffic. 9. Always slow down and rubber-neck when you see an accident or even someone changing a tire. 10. Everybody thinks their vehicle is better than yours, especially 4WD drivers. 11. It is traditional to honk your horn at cars that don't move the instant the light changes. 12. Seeking eye contact with another driver revokes your right of way. 13. Never take a green light at face value. Always look right and left before proceeding. 14. Remember that the goal of every driver is to get there first, by whatever means necessary. 15. Real women drivers can put on pantyhose and apply eye makeup at 130 kph in bumper-to-bumper traffic. 16. Real men drivers can remove pantyhose and a bra at 130 kph in bumper-to-bumper traffic. 17. Heavy fog and rain are no reasons to change any of the previously listed rules. These weather conditions are God's way ensuring a natural selection process for body shops, junkyards, and new vehicle sales. 18. There is a common held belief that highspeed tailgating in heavy traffic reduces petrol consumption as you get sucked along in the slipstream of the car in front. This is true. 19. It's OK to cut off fully loaded semi-trailers, road trains and buses because they have brakes. 20. Always anticipate oncoming traffic while driving down a one way street. 21. It's O.K when driving in suburbs to air your grievances at bad drivers by giving the "one or two finger salute" while screaming out "fucking arsehole". But it is imperative you are driving a turbo charged V6 or a 5 litre V8, with a crow bar in your lap.

Laundry uses with Vineger
- Prevent lint from clinging to clothes by adding 1/2 cup white distilled vinegar to the wash cycle.
- To remove soap residue that makes black clothes look dull use white distilled vinegar in your final rinse.
- Get stained white socks and dingy dishcloths white again. Add 1 cup white distilled vinegar to a large pot of water, bring it to a rolling boil and drop in the articles. Let soak overnight. Some stains on clothing and linens can be soaked out using equal parts milk and white distilled vinegar.
- Before washing a mustard stain, dab with white distilled vinegar. Attack spaghetti, barbecue, or ketchup stains with a white distilled vinegar and water solution.
- Remove perspiration odor and stains on clothing, as well as those left by deodorants, by spraying full-strength white distilled vinegar on underarm and collar areas before tossing them into the washing machine.
- Forgot that you left wet laundry in the machine and it now smells moldy? Pour a few cups of white distilled vinegar in the machine and wash the clothes in hot water. Then run a normal cycle with detergent.
- Remove smoky odors from clothes by filling the bathtub with very hot water and 1 cup white distilled vinegar. Hang the garments above the steaming water and shut the door so the steam can penetrate the fibers.
- Keep the steam iron clean and in good working order by getting rid of mineral deposits in steam vents and spray nozzles. Fill the water chamber with a solution of equal parts white distilled vinegar and distilled water. Set it in an upright position and let it steam for about 5 minutes. When the iron is cool, rinse the tank with water, refill and shake water through the vents onto an old cloth. Test before using.
- Remove scorch marks from an iron by rubbing it with a warmed-up solution of equal parts white distilled vinegar and salt. If that doesn’t work, use a cloth dampened with full-strength white distilled vinegar.
- Remove musky smells from cotton clothes by sprinkling them lightly with white distilled vinegar and then pressing them.
- Get water and salt stains off shoes and boots by wiping them down with a solution of equal parts white distilled vinegar and water. Give patent leather shoes and bags a better shine by wiping them down with white distilled vinegar.
- Get cleaner laundry! Add about 1/4 cup white distilled vinegar to the last rinse. The acid in white distilled vinegar is too mild to harm fabrics, yet strong enough to dissolve the alkalies in soaps and detergents. Besides removing soap, white distilled vinegar prevents yellowing, acts as a fabric softener and static cling reducer, and attacks mold and mildew.
- Eliminate manufacturing chemicals from new clothes by adding 1/2 cup white distilled vinegar to the water.
- Remove soap scum and clean the hoses of your washing machine with white distilled vinegar. Periodically run the machine with only a cup of white distilled vinegar in it—nothing else added to the wash cycle.
- Bring out bright colors by adding 1/2 cup white distilled vinegar to the rinse cycle. Fluff up wool or acrylic sweaters (hand- or machine-washed) and rid them of soap smell, with 1/2 cup white distilled vinegar in the last rinse water.
- Get rid of the tiny holes left along the hemline when you take out the hem of any garment by moistening a cloth with white distilled vinegar, placing it under the fabric and ironing.

Summer vacation coming too soon!
The kids get out of school on May 22nd this year...I will never be ready for them to get out.I don`t think any parent is ready for them to get out. Just to think of the expense of feeding them and putting them into childcare which can be a fortune...I am currently trying to put all 3 of them into summer school right now..Still no word on summer school..It would be good for them and for my sanity right now. Summer time in Arizona can be very hot-which would mean the kids would be in the house all day..(that ain`t going to happen) With gas prices keep going up, i am not doing much with them except for our camping trip in July for Kayla`s 13 birthday.Camping is what Kayla want`s to do for her birthday with some friends up at the lake...They go back to school on August 4th...Summer vacation is too long in my opionion. What are you doing for summer vacation with/to the kids?

Who to operate on
Five surgeons are discussing who makes the best patients to operate on.The first surgeon says, "I like to see accountants on my operating table, because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered."The second responds, "Yeah, but you should try electricians! Everything inside them is color coded."The third surgeon says, "No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside is in alphabetical order."The fourth surgeon chimes in: "You know, I like construction workers...those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over at the end, and when the job takes longer than you said it would."But the fifth surgeon shut them all up when he observed: "You're all wrong Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no heart and no spine, and the head and butt are interchangeable."

Have you started shopping yet?
Have you thought about Christmas shopping yet? I will starting soon myself..I can`t do the last minute shopping anymore since the kids are getting older now..My friend and i were thinking about renting a unit to hide everything and keeping a table in their to wrap up the presents..We are going to be ready for anything this year..I already started stocking up on food for the holidays-i have big deep chest freezer storing stuff in it..Good luck to you all..I am not shopping like a crazy lady this year shopping at the last minute..
