Ice cold, hand-churned, low-calorie, refreshing awards. It's the hand churning that took so long. ;)
Sue wins the Good Day, Sunshine Award for lovely weather and a personal afternoon. Yay! And, many thanks for joining the hosts. And, hippo birdie, two ewe!
Happy Anniversary to Queen of West Procrastination! Best to you and yours with the big move.
The Decisions, Decisions Award goes to JenR, who is making some big ones.
Esperanza wins the Ain't Summer Grand Award, for broken AC in high heat, resulting in an entire festival of sibling crankiness and fights over toys. Very old skool.
Adventures in Teething Award goes to QWP's Lil E -- may there be a breakthrough soon!
The Medical Miracle Award goes to Sue, who made the appointment, saw the doctor, got the prescription, and got back to work in just about an hour. We think that national health care stuff sounds pretty darned good!
Many hugs to Liz and her family, and many thoughts for MIL and her husband. xoxoxo
The Disgusting Creature Feature of the Week is: Ticks! Ewwww! Ick! Yuck! We wish Liz's friend a swift and full recovery from a tick-borne ailment. ~~shudder~~
The Cluestick Posse will pay a return visit to Downstairs Girl, who thinks pounding around looking for her mail at 11 p.m., after she moved out, is neighborly or something.
Thanks for playing! See you next week, when the fabulous Sue will host!
