Oh, boogers

This was supposed to be a picture-heavy post all about how I have jumped from my Hello Betty nine patches back to the pinwheel quilt and then over to an ill-advised project to use up a bunch of old jelly rolls that I bought on eBay in some place mats, which may end up being a quilt instead, 'cause the block I made was pretty cute...BUT I LOST MY CAMERA. I downloaded our Christmas pictures off of it, and haven't seen it since. I do also have a Pentax digital SLR, but I'd have to GO UPSTAIRS and CARRY IT DOWN. Then I'd have to TAKE OFF THE LENS CAP, which I would then lose, and there'd be that panicky search for it, which would end hours later when it would fall out of my bra when my husband decided to get all frisky while I was brushing my teeth. And I just do not have the patience for that today, since I had only been home from dropping off my kids for one hour and fifteen minutes, when the school nurse called to tell me Harper was having trouble swallowing and I better come get her before she goes into anaphylactic shock! So I rush over and take her to the doctor, and she seems perfectly fine the whole time, and the doctor looks her over and asks her a bunch of questions...and determines that she has post-nasal drip.

Post-nasal drip. I gave up my day for backwards snot.

Boogers? Seriously? That's all the game you've got today? I've gotta say I love your posts and I received one of your T-shirts for christmas and wear it when I work at the quilt shop. It's gotten an unbelievable amount of laughs!!

I usually find food items in my bra - popcorn bits etc. Oopsie.

They need to make a clapper for the camera- so it will beep when you can't find it! Or maybe a remote that will make it honk, like when you can't find your car in the parking lot! These little cameras are so easy to misplace. I keep mine in a RED case but even that does not always help.
