I was JUST reading through your post about the king size quilt and the calendar (that sounds like SUCH a good idea by the way...I'll have to figure out what absent-minded family needs that).

At first I thought...classic regifter...but now I'm thinking she's just scatter brained? Too funny.

So yes, maybe she was in my house. Only purple bathroom I've seen in 27 years!

Wow.  I like blue.  I like purple.  I like pink.  But....

I have hot pink :)  LOL, its ridiculous but I love it.

Hey-hey-hey!  Whoa now!  Don't be saying anything against a king size quilt!  THAT'S CROSSING THE LINE!

See, it's actually one of my secrets to marital bliss - king sized blankets on a queen sized bed.  Then, there's no fighting over the blankets!  Small annoyance, easily solved!  With a king sized blanket, we can have the blankets go OVER DH, under the dog and OVER me.  And it gets rid of that annoying "tent" that happens between you when you're both lying on your sides facing away from each other.

So yeah, you guys can laugh all you want about the blue, purple and pink bathroom, but step away from the king sized blankets!

Ha ha ha....ANNOYING TENT!  Never knew that was the name of that!

Snakes have never been a particular fear of mine --- until last week.  I read about a house in Idaho that is infested with snakes.  Hundreds.  At least hundreds.  The house is being sold (again) for $109K.  That's a discount of $66K.  It seems that the original owner had the house built on land where there was a snake den. 

I learned from reading web articles (http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/01/22/us-snakes-idUSTRE70L05F20110122 & http://www.mizozo.com/weird/01/2011/23/idaho-snake-house-for-sale-at-109-000.html), that snakes coat their dens with pheromones so they can find their way back home for breeding each year.  The house has become an extension of the original snake den, and most likely no one will ever rid it of snakes.


Pooh

ARRRRGGGG!!!  Now I have the creepy crawlies!  And can you imagine, since that is known...what kind of person would buy it?  I know...I know....one of my relatives (Beat you to it Laurie!)  :P

Ohhh that just made me cringe and I can't stop everytime I think about it!!!

Wasn't there some kind of movie a few years back about a town having a snake problem?  And it was traced back to a house or cave or something? (This is what happens when you get old.)
