    My favorite show! Love how they take a line or a scene to the nth level. I'm sorry, I haven't had those days (childless), but anyone who did has my sympathies.

    Ha, too funny. My little monkey will go looking all throughout the house for me, screaming, "Mommy, where are you?" just because, "I wanted to give you a hug, and one more kiss!"

Weekly Winners Sept 7-13

My weekly winners this week are all taken from my Project 365-Boys Play that I have been working on this year. We decided to paint the boys' room this week. Word must have gone out about it because while DH & I were moving the furniture around, these guys showed up: Contractorsaurs.  They had their own equipment so we hired them but soon there problems. They seemed to have issues with the spackle   I'm fairly certain some child labor laws were being broken   That doesn't look like painters' tape to me   Watching paint dry. We're not paying them by the hour are we? 5 days later (3 days longer than planned) the room was finished        For more Weekly Winners please visit Lotus at Sarcastic Mom

The brake rotors need milled or something. They stutter when you hit the brakes, the brakes still work just fine but you can feel the stuttering in an alarming “Good God the brakes are going to fail sooner rather than later” sort of way. Though I am told if it takes me 9 months to get the job done mostly I’ll just need new rotors & the brakes themselves will continue to work. But nevertheless it is alarming. I was told that about 3 months ago & for various reasons have been putting it off. The dealership, who told me I needed the milling, quoted me a price that seemed really high to DH who once had rotors milled back in the 20th century. So he’s been sporadically calling around looking for lower prices. It appears the costs of brake repairs have in fact gone up in the past 2 decades. Should we be w...
