Good night everyone! Let's all have great dreams tonight. Maybe, if we synchronize our watches we will all have the same great dream. Sleep tight!

In sync now, did you mean digital or analog?

Good dreams tonight everyone!

I can picture his face but his name escapes me

I looked up the name, I remembered the actor - the face, the voice, like Madge says. It was... Lionel Sanders? STANDER is the last name, had to look that up again.

I am up late. On a wonky schedule lately and I'm enjoying my movies online, my naps during the day. It can't last but I'm enjoying it the past several days. :D

My understanding is that all carrots were purple, then they "bred" them to be orange. Why? Who knows. There's a story there, I'm sure. And all these different breeds of domesticated dogs... and cats. It's a wonder, really.

Lionel Stander is correct! He has quite a story online too. He was blacklisted!

Genetic engineering makes for purebred cats. (says my dH, but I will be sharing much less with him from here on, he confuses me).
But I thanked him for the help with t.v. titles and trivia.

Well Sharyn,I'm up to a room full of kittens acting very badly,giving me a real work out while my dH just lays in bed watching old TV reruns snuggling with the dog.
I'm debating eating the chocolate Easter bunny I got for him....

Thanks Sharyn,The ears will be just enough to satisfy me tonight and then I'll just wrap it up and stick the body in his Easter basket.Perfect!

SharynMarie...Did you ever get in trouble at the school room lunch table maybe saying certain words in Spanish?I sure got in trouble for shooting peas and this other time when we were playing "Hide the Nickle" at the lunch table.I hid the nickel in my sloppy joe and forgot about it and swallowed it and the teacher didn't believe me but Dad took me for an xray after school and the doctor said it would Pass and everyday I had my Mom look for THAT nickel and one day she finally found it and I still have it today.

Reminds me of the time my friend and I were playing dolls in her backyard and her brother, Fred, who always hassled us girls came out to yell at us and a fly went right into his open mouth. He shut his mouth with the fly in it and the look on his face was priceless.

Missing out on the fun while I am filing my taxes....
Luckylu, Tonight, be sure to bite the head off that chocolate bunny!

A group of children gathered at the table were rhyming things.....when I rhymed: "Pass the sugar buggar", I was sent to sit in the corner. So many years ago. It rhymes, I think.

I remember my mother flipping out on one of us kids and coming very close to losing her ever loving mind when she caught one of us calling another a "booger". She thought we said "buggar" which had a whole different meaning to our British mother than booger did to us American kids.

M2M you'll get this - my Dad told me that when he was a very little boy, his evil big brother taught him to say "I chased a bug around a tree - I'll have his blood he knows I will" and got him to recite it at the tea table. My poor Dad got such a clip round the ear.

Mom2Mom,
O dear, guess I was in the corner for saying the kind in your nose, booger?
What does the other mean, in British terms?

Oh, back to the days when swear words were things like gosh darn it! or you little beggar! or my father's favourite judas priest! I remember my brother and his friends got in trouble with a teacher for saying gee whiz because it sounded like jesus. Now we drop the f bomb with impunity.

Yeah, friggin is just as bad, or sounds worse! Sorry to those who use it with
impunity, but if I am talking (briefly) with a neighbor, spewing hate and that word, Please, get me outta here.

Great announcement to follow!......What thread is this? Let me look.....

Procrastination is a really bad thing. Maybe this behavior should have it's own mental illness title, instead of just being a symptom of things just are not right. Every tax season in the past, I would be searching for the latest mail drop nearby, just nearing midnight.

This year, there is still time, the deadline is postmarked by midnight on
APRIL 18th.

TODAY, April 15th, the mail was on it's way at 5:30 p.m. Saturday! Put into that box by 4:00 p.m.!

And my IRS and FTB envelopes went with it! Yay. Big accomplishment for me.

YAHOO!!!! And YIPEE!!!

We don't have to file here until the 30th. I'm basically done but I've been putting off going over everything and re checking, I guess because I don't like the numbers at the end. Since I've always mostly been self employed there's never been a rebate, it's always tax owing. At least filing online is easy, you don't even have to attach the documents anymore, just click submit and it's on it's way.

I have a tradition. I leave taxes till April 29th. Like CWillie, I live in Canada. It's the race against the machine for me. Will she get it into the mail before midnight?

Hey, idea for new reality show. We could call it 24 Hours till Tax Deadline. Contestants can compete to see who can leave it till the last minute and still make it on time. There could be a big clock that chimes every minute.
It might be a bit boring to watch but it couldn't be any worse than watching the Kardashians getting botox and taking selfies.

Lol, driving that car up to the nightdrop mailbox, or walking it inside for an earlier collection. So many things could go wrong, and do! The post office is out of stamps, the car doesn't have enough gas, the envelope tore, where is a new one, what is the right address, etc. etc. All this done last minute without eating......What a reality show that would be, then stopping to take a selfie when looking like you've stayed up for days!!

I know, selfies of caregivers at their worst!

Hey, Send, another great idea. We could call the show Caregivers taking Selfies whilst doing taxes. What a hoot that would be, yes?

I can hear the commentary already. Martha, forgot to put her teeth in...........oh, wait a sec. I think she mailed them with her taxes.

Uncle John, has poo running down his legs but he doesn't care, he needs to get that envelope in the box and he only has 5 mins. left. What a trooper!

Actually, high fives here when it was done. Then, um, then......
hubs asked if I wanted him to take a picture! ummmmm.....
puhleeeese don't, even though it was a hallmark moment I told him.

Sometimes, I am wondering if I am just living my life in shock. A reality show gone bad.

Send, that is an interesting way to put it, and I have wondered this about my own life...feel like a deer in the headlights looking at things unfolding in disbelief a lot of the time. If there is a good for every bad, then I am waiting for an avalanche of incredible things to come... Wait wait wait.....:)

Today is another day, just an ordinary day.
After getting thru jury duty, sending in my taxes, mailing in the rep-payee report, I am too exhausted for a holiday with all the stores and banks closed.

Happy Easter, everyone.

Hopefully it is a time of renewal for you.
