Too early in the season for the "white stuff"
« on: October 16, 2009, 05:30:17 am »
Ok, who dun' it? Who blew this our way?  Not even Halloween, my patio furniture is still out, no dust collected on my bbq grille yet... the dog is none too thrilled to walk in this stuff..... and the bloke still has yet to learn how to drive in this stuff.  The picture timestamp IS accurate and I WILL hunt down the culprit!

Ok..... WHO SENT THE SPLENDA OUR WAY?!?!  :o  :o  :o

*eyeballs Yoo-Tee, others dropping halo's and anyone else inbetween*  :o  >:(  ;)  :-*

Oh my goodness, Phyl  :o

I am SO sorry about this.  BTW, my halo has slipped a time or two recently, but I'm not the culprit here.

Hope it melted fast.

Phyl,

You need to get a taller dog - then maybe it wouldn't be so traumatic to walk in the cold snow!   :D

It looks so pretty - as long as I don't have to see it outside MY window!

 :D  :D  :D Classic line, Lori

No offense, Phyl - to you or the dog  ;D

Aren't you glad that out of the three of us, at least Kaybo behaves?

Hi Phyl,

I'm not the one who sent the Splenda but it does look pretty from here!  Sorry about the dog though -- maybe you can get him/her snow boots.  :D  They actually do make them for dogs.   I have to agree though -- it's way too early for this stuff.

Very funny Lori -- I think you halo's slipping again!

so, my Pooter has taken blame, I see halos dropping everywhere (except for the lovely Kaybo, of course! ;) ) and its melted. The dog doesn't look good in doggy booties but did buy her a new sweater with hood today in preparation for future Splenda dumpage.

Oy.... far too early in the season for this!  And now prepping for a Nor'eata' tomorrow.  My hair can't take this! :'(

You know, I've been hearing that a lot.  What's the theory behind it?  Farmer's almanac?
