So the name of one of our local hospitals is Christ Hospital.
One of the doctors from Christ Hosp. called me at work the other day.
The new receptionist pages me and this is what she says......."Sandy, Christ is parked on line one. Christ is parked on line one." Cracked me up. :O)

The racoons stole the gold fish from my pond..........maybe it was an opossum, or perhaps the neighbors cat?

I've been doing lots of work around the yard the last week or so................when we knocked down the ugly brick wall that sat just below the front porch I found one of my sons official T-Balls........it was filthy.......looks brand new since I've cleaned it.............and while removing some old wood from under the side of the deck I found one of daughters dolls. It hair was filled with little pea size dirt balls. I've shampooed it numerous times..........it looks better but not too great.............and under the porch I found an old McDonalds happy meal toy.................................................................................at one time I had stored in my attic space boxes and boxes full of sons and daughters old toys. I packed away the ones loved most by the kids...........and all the stuff that held special meaning/memories for me.
All of the boxes were taken from my house and given to a thrift store without my permission.
So when I find a tea pot under the floor of daughters old backyard playhouse, or hotwheels in a suitcase in the crawl space off sons old bedroom......it thrills me.

I'm making gift bags for the girls that cheer on the squad with my daughter. Most of the mothers take a turn making gift bags for the girls for before a game, or they bring cold drinks or fruit for the girls for after a practice.
I like making the gift bags. I'm a dork I guess because I think it's fun to come up with cute ideas...................this year I've made each of the girls a necklace..............................................and a skeleton cheerleader magnet...........I'll take pictures..............they turned out really cute!
