1. Do your actions match your words? Elaborate.
I hope so. I like to think I can be relied upon to be honest. It's harder during the summer, when I can't do ANYTHING without having to open a juice box or answer a question about cats or settle a debate about anything...
2. Sick as a dog, go to the dogs, dog days of summer, dog tired, it's a dog's life, every dog has it's day, can't teach an old dog new tricks...now doggone it which saying could most recently be applied to your life?
Dog days of summer. It hasn't been that hot here, which is good, but it's closing in on the beginning of the school year, and we're running out of energy and time to do everything.
3. Your favorite book featuring a dog in the storyline? What makes it a favorite?
Is anyone gonna laugh if I say Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban? I know the dog was Sirius, but he was a good boy. Yes he was.
4. What's something you hope to one day have the confidence to do?
Speak up. There's kind of a lot of stuff going on, and I wish I had the spine to make my opinion clear. I feel like my own blog should be a safe place for me to say something, but I've seen people get burned by that in the past. The only thing I think we can all agree on here is we don't have the time or the place in our lives for hating one another.
5. August 16th is National Tell a Joke Day. So tell us a joke.
I stole this one from my son, who wrote it down and put it in his sister's lunchbox.
What sound do porcupines make when they kiss?

Ouch!
(Putting jokes in Sunshine's lunchbox is kind of our thing. I'm gonna need some ideas for the coming school year, so hit me with your best ones! She's gonna be eight in October, if that helps...)
6. Insert your own random thought here.
I discovered the other day that most of my tea towels have holes in them. What the heck? So I ordered a bunch of new ones, and I ordered some of those designs that you iron on to embroider over so they wouldn't be so BORING but turns out, I don't know how to use an iron because the pattern I was trying to iron on to a towel this morning only got half transferred. I have no idea what I'm doing and I kinda feel like less of an adult because of it.
I love the thought of putting a joke in the lunchbox :) A little something to brighten someone's day.
ReplyDeleteAs for the iron on transfer, perhaps the iron wasn't quite hot enough? I've had that happen before...
Have a great day,
Kathy (Reflections by Kathy)
She loves it! But it's easy to run out of age appropriate jokes she'll appreciate...
DeleteI think you're right about the iron not being hot enough. I'm so impatient when it comes to waiting for irons to heat up, or water to boil, or stuff like that...
I agree with Kathy. The iron may not have been hot enough, also make sure it's not steaming.
ReplyDeleteCute joke and putting them in the lunchbox is a neat idea.
Yes, IMHO you can use Harry Potter. Love that series (movies)
Thanks for the tip--I think you're right the iron wasn't hot enough. I knew it wasn't steaming because that was my first guess too, but it's shut off.
DeleteThe joke in the lunchbox is such a cute idea. I teach 3rd grade and the kids who gets notes LOVE them. Have a super week!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by! I only got to include notes in my son's lunch a couple times when he was younger, but he asked me to stop because apparently only girls got notes from their moms (which makes me sad to think about!). I'm so happy my daughter likes it. For my son we got a notebook that we write back and forth to each other in.
DeleteHave a great week!
