Good morning everyone
Happy Wednesday
So I got a phone call last night from my sister asking if I wanted to go shopping with her today. Now I am not a big shopper but she mentioned the magic words "Christmas Decorations" so how could I say "No" !
This also gave me an idea for

Special thanks to most of you who voted......to the ones who didn't agree with the mighty me?....we'll talk.....soon
I can't refuse a trip somewhere even if its not too far.
I use an electric razor.
I can usually figure out todays technology, but still get confused by something thats been around forever. Women! I'm sure the same gets said about me.
I do have monopoly in the hosue, don't remember the last time I played.
Some of the offers I can't refuse? Half price day!! And am pretty cautious about that, unfortunately.
Been using the Gillette mach 1 razor and use Barbasol shaving cream for many years. I wish I could find an electric razor that doesn't tear up my skin.
I love Monopoly but some of my friends call it "Monotony". Always pick the race car when I play. And Doughnut Appreciation Day? Simply yums! Have a great day people!

Offers I couldnt refuse? Well, when I moved back to Calif, the rest of the original band members from 31 years ago asked me to re-group with them bringing back the old band with the original members....and I did.
No electric razor here. Simple soap/water and a dollar store razor has worked fine for decades and Im content with the results.
Todays technolgy? I would say the 'ipod'. Ive seen them, heard of them, but have no desire to own one. Same with a 'nav system'. Im good at paper maps, am old school in that way and again, have no desire to own a nav system.
We have a Pokemmon Monopoly that the kids can join in playing, but Im not really big on board games, especially Mono-tony!!! (Havent played that in a couple of decades!)
Offer you can't refuse???
Hmmm.... along with the decorating theme, Would you like to go ahead and put up the Christmas, Fall, Valentine's Day, etc. decorations??? (Decorating is a passion of mine.)
Shaving?~ that new Intuition thingy.
Technology? Pretty much anything. Thankfully, my husband's a geek.
Monopoly?~ Yes, we have one. Can't remember the last time I played.
Donuts? Yes I have noticed there seems to be lots of "donut" days. But then again, can there be too many???! LOL! I would bring donuts to work sometimes but most of the people are very health conscious here and tend to be real "stick in the muds" about donuts!
I hate to say so, but I believe you are mistaken. the donut holes are sold separately and are disguised at Dunkin Donuts under a different name - the call 'em "munchkins" but everyone knows they are the donut holes. They go down real easy, one right after the other.
