Four Things
1) I just wanted to clarify my last entry. I am not opposed to accommodating allergies. Not at all. I am opposed to accommodating allergies/people/situations that don’t exist. If we had a child in our group that would die from eating candy that had been in an egg that had possible peanut oil, than I would be more than happy to use new eggs. When we don’t have a child that sensitive in our group I don’t understand the point of making modifications. I would be more than happy to go buy more eggs, but my wee little green heart opposes the idea of generating more plastic trash when I probably already have 200 eggs and this hypothetical super-sensitive peanut allergy child is not someone who will be hunting for the eggs.
2) My sister. Oh lordy, my sister. She made a post on Facebook yesterday asking all her friends to post a comment with the number of people they’ve slept with. Really classy Facebook material. Then she answered “one!!!” Ummmmm. Seriously? Who does she think she’s trying to fool? Maybe she has a friend or two on there who don’t know anything about her (doubtful since she lives in our small hometown and everyone knows her name). Maybe she forgot the “hundred” after the one.
3) I forgot to mention the super fun game I made up yesterday! I bought Erik a pair of gardening gloves, and he was so excited he wanted to go do yard work right away. I grabbed a big tyvek bag from my pile of bags, took him outside and convinced him it would be SO MUCH FUN to be a community helper and clean up all the trash in the yard. He spent a long, long time with the game. Our yard and the mailbox common area looks great. We went down to the little playground to throw the bag out in the big garbage can down there and he tried to convince all the little tweenies to join his game. A couple of them even picked up a couple of things. It was very cute.
4) I’m off for a day of fun! I forgot to get my eyebrows waxed, which is the only blight in my plans.

We had so much fun with you today! I’m glad you came. I have pictures too! I need to email. We’re thinking the blogger meet up will be Sunday afternoon. I’ll email details asap.
