There were a lot easter eggs in last week's highly anticipated "Amazing Spiderman 2" teaser. One scene showed a display case in Oscorp labs which appeared to contain the mechanical arms of Doctor Octopus.
Photo credit: Screen shot from 'Amazing Spiderman 2' teaserNow comes this comment from B.J. Novak, who confirmed to Huffington Post that he's in the new movie...
I'm in a couple of scenes. Yeah, I was never told whether or not I could say. I can say that I work at Oscorp. And I am someone from the comic books, someone from the original. So, yeah, I'm somebody. I wouldn't say I'm pivotal, but I'm not an extra, either.
I find that to be extremely vague. However, it was enough for the fanboys to jump to the conclusion that Novak is playing Doc Ock.
A few months ago it was reported that Bryan Cranston had been cast as Lex Luthor in "Superman vs Batman". That report turned out to be completely bogus. Please take these rumors with a big grain of salt.
Speaking of Doc Ock... Tech Geek blog has stumbled across what may be the worst cosplay photo ever. I wasn't sure if this guy was supposed to be Doctor Octopus or the Jiffy Pop Popcorn Man.

I believe in student-centered learning, and I believe there is huge potential for this kind of learning to occur in online environments.

Well, here's a SHORT list from me -
1. Country stuff - ginghams, plaids, grungy solids with unique elements
2. Transportation/Travel - I have TONS of photos of car stuff to scrap - so generic transportation stuff - like license plates (make your own or FUNNY personalized ones that already have cute sayings on them), colorful road signs, papers with maps on them, cute word art (like...are we there yet?);
unique 'travel' elements.
3. BRAG BOOKs and BRAG Book Templates. This is the latest trend - and I've made up several brag books for my grandkids and they LOVE them. 4x6 inch size templates and books are the BEST! I can print 3 of them on a single photo sheet 8.5x11 at home - and then I laminate them at home and put an office ring through them and the young kids love them. Especially since they have 'dirty' hands a lot and can look at the photos of themselves and others - and it's portable - the 1 and 2 year olds love them in the cars to look at.
And it's a quick way to share photos with them in a creative way.
These also make NICE gifts to grandparents and in-laws and friends for any occasion - a real quick way to give a small keepsake album to friends for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, etc.
4. Anything Heritage related - I have tons of old family photos to scrap - vintage 20s/30s, vintage 40s/50s, vintage 60s/70s. Popular colors from those eras too.
5. Craft related - most digiscrappers are into other crafts as well - we are a creative bunch - I'm a sucker for anything sewing, quilted, or needlework related...like heirloom laces and fabrics, and sewing elements, cross stitch, embroidery patches/tags with cute sayings - like 'you are SEW sweet - etc.
And AC has the cross stitch and embroidery actions that should be able to make up some really cute sewing related tags, alphas, elements.
6. FRAMES - I can never have enough of these - of any kind.
7. Overlay templates - I can never have enough of these - the kind that you use quickly to grunge up or texture papers.
8. Cottage garden or shabby chic - I LOVE anything that is whitewashed! Can't get enough of this. And I LOVE picket fences and lattice backgrounds.
Even a template with a picket fence or lattice background on it. Memo boards.
9. Christening, Baptism, Confirmation kits, high school and college graduation kits, Wedding kits. Anything that relates to congratulatory moments.
10. Anything 'kid' related - we are always scrapping our kids and grandkids - can never have enough of these papers and elements. Tap Dancing, Ballet, Gymnastics, sports, swimming, trucks and cars and blocks, and video games.
And EDUCATIONAL ones too - papers with the alphabet and numbers on them. Templates with the alphabet and numbers.
Well - that's my short list - so far. If I think of anything else, I will add later.

Board seeks answers about cycling event
The UCI World Road Cycling Championships will take place in the Richmond region three years from this week, but Henrico County officials need more information before formally committing to climb aboard for the ride.
Officials from Richmond 2015 – the nonprofit organization that will host the nine-day international event – asked Henrico's Board of Supervisors during a Sept. 11 work session to contribute a total of $1.4 million to the championships during the next three years. But supervisors and County Manager Virgil Hazelett, while pledging support for the event in general terms, bristled at the request because it lacked the specifics they were expecting.
"It is clear to me that we do not have sufficient information," Hazelett said. "My main concern is the cost. I don't have a comfort level yet in what's going to happen."
Richmond 2015 has established a budget of $21.4 million, its CEO, William Flohr, told the board. The City of Richmond has committed a $2 million contribution, he said, and presentations to officials in Hanover and Chesterfield counties followed the visit to Henrico. The organization arrived at its $1.4 million request of Henrico by following the regional funding format that was used for the Greater Richmond Convention Center, to which Richmond contributed 50 percent, Henrico 35 percent, Chesterfield 13 percent and Hanover 2 percent.
Board 'disappointed' in approach
But it was clear during last week's work session that at least some county officials felt slighted by the organization's decision to approach them now to assist with an event that may have quickly outgrown its original scope – and by the implication among some in the public that the county was not being a regional partner.
During a steady and pointed line of questioning, Brookland District Supervisor and board chairman Dick Glover expressed as much, suggesting that Richmond 2015 officials had dropped the ball by waiting more than 18 months to meet with the full Henrico board.
He implied that if the organization had involved Henrico from the beginning (in late 2010), the county would have felt more like a true partner and less like a bank account.
"I am very disappointed that this is almost two years after [the process began] that the Board of Supervisors of Henrico County has been approached," Glover said. "I feel like you've left us out of the picture, and now you're coming to us with not enough information."
Varina District Supervisor Tyrone Nelson was similarly unimpressed.
"You came to us and gave us nothing today," Nelson told the organization's contingent. "I think it's a healthy promotion for our region, but you're asking us to spend a million and a half dollars that are not in our budget. We each have capital improvement projects [awaiting funding] in our districts, and I've got people in my district ready to shoot me because we don't have a new school yet."
Nelson also suggested that if the county were to donate the requested $1.4 million, it should receive more than just one of the 12 races scheduled for the nine-day event – particularly if Richmond's $2 million donation is enough to earn it nine races. (Hanover and Chesterfield also would receive one race each by contributing to the event, Richmond 2015 organizers said.)
Flohr, who joined Richmond 2015 in April, conceded that the organization might have done some things differently before his arrival, in retrospect.
"It perhaps should have been a regional effort," he said, "and we're trying to make it into a regional effort now."
Economic impact debated
Henrico stands to realize a $42 million economic benefit from the event, Flohr said; some 450,000 spectators are expected to attend the races. Flohr told the board that Henrico would receive an additional $832,000 in hotel and lodging taxes during the nine-day period, but Hazelett questioned his math, saying that the county typically receives about that much during the month of September, when the occupancy rate is about 60 percent.
"We can't double that [amount] in nine days with only 40 percent vacancy available," Hazelett said.
The race proposed for Henrico is the initial time trial for men and women, which might begin in Short Pump and travel east to its conclusion in the city. That race would be televised live on a national network, Flohr said. But though Henrico would receive commercials during the broadcast and the opportunity for other exposure, Flohr could provide no specific details. The organization must purchase TV time from a network and has not yet completed the negotiation process, he said.
Tuckahoe District Supervisor Pat O'Bannon told Flohr that the board would need to see a specific list of the benefits it would receive for a $1.4 million donation before determining how to proceed.
Hazelett expressed serious concerns about the costs associated with heavy police and security needed to protect the 1,000 cyclists – some of whom will represent nations with volatile political climates – as well as spectators and citizens.
Those costs, combined with shutting down more than 60 intersections for the race, could total nearly $500,000, Hazelett said – money that he said should be deducted from any donation Henrico makes.
To date, Richmond 2015 has financial commitments from five corporate partners totaling more than $2 million, but Flohr declined to name those companies. He promised Hazelett and the board that he would have specific details and answers to their questions by the first week of October, however.
The UCI event, which began in 1927 and has been held annually since (except for a seven-year period during World War II), will be held in The Netherlands this year, Italy next year and Spain in 2014. The United States has hosted it only once, in Colorado Springs in 1986.

Henricus Historical Park to host Publick Day Sept. 20
Citizen Staff Reports 09/15/2014
Henricus Historical Park will commemorate its anniversary during Publick Day, a signature annual event that celebrates the establishment of the second successful English settlement in the New World. In September 1611, Sir Thomas Dale, along with soldiers, tradesmen and farmers, ventured from Jamestown to create the Citie of Henricus. Leaders of Henricus developed the first English hospital, chartered the first college in North America, established tobacco as the first cash crop in Virginia, and created a place where Pocahontas lived and met John Rolfe.
Publick Day will take place Saturday, Sept. 20, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free and parking is $5 per vehicle. > Read more.

Lace Sensor Gold-Gold Dually Humbucker PickupThe Lace Sensor Gold-Gold Dually Humbucker Pickup combines 2 Sensor Gold single coil guitar pickups for noiseless tone.Lace has been building the Sensor Gold pickup since 1985 and it was used exclusively by Fender until 1996. The Lace Sensor Gold pickups you get today have the same specifications with the same great tone. Gold Lace Sensor guitar pickups are designed to duplicate an early Fender single coil pickup that had crisp top end and bell-like tone. The Lace Sensor Gold-Gold pickup uses the latest technology to provide excellent tone for today's players.Lace Sensors have a unique radiant Field Barrier system that surrounds both the coil and magnets, reducing annoying 60-cycle hum. The patented Lace Micro Combs replace traditional bobbins, yielding a wider tonal range and better string balance than traditional pickups.Unlike ordinary pickups, the Lace Sensor generates 36 separate magnetic "sensing" fields that, in the areas where they contact the string, "read" the strings' vibration. (Regular guitar pickups only generate anywhere from 4 to 12 fields).The Lace Sensor guitar pickup also has Radiant Field Barriers: metal slides that frame the inner core of the Sensors and perform two functions. The first is to shield the Sensor from the outside noise and 60-cycle hum. The second is to produce broader, yet more concentrated, umbrellas of sensing field than standard magnetic pickups.Less Noise, More HarmonicsAs compared to standard pickups, the Lace pickup reads a greater physical area of the string, while picking up less outside interference. This makes the signal-to-noise ratio nothing short of phenomenal for a single coil system. Also, a wider range of harmonic content is read by the Sensor, delivering a more complex tonal response.Increased Sustain, Truer PitchSince it operates so efficiently, Lace Sensors can use much lower energy magnets than ordinary pickups, and this in turn brings about a whole new realm of properties. In regular pickups, the magnetic fields are so strong they physically dampen, or drag on, the strings' vibration, reducing sustain and actually changing the pitch. But in the Lace Sensor, string dampening is virtually nonexistent. This means your sustain is increased dramatically while the string holds its true pitch for the duration of the note.Lace includes a three-inch mini data CD that includes all its latest wiring diagrams in color along with Lace's most current pickup and guitar catalogs. Also includes a warranty card and other useful information regarding Lace Music Products.

Initially, investigators with the National Transportation Safety Board ruled Spirit Airlines flight 165, from Dallas to Atlanta had an "uncontained" explosion. But, released Friday, new information shows the engine failed the way it was supposed to, according to NTSB representative Eric Weiss.
That may nor may not be good news for passengers on board the damaged aircraft. Many believed they were close to spending their last moments on earth.
But, from an investigative and mechanical standpoint, a "contained" failure is a way better scenario than "uncontained."
Engines are designed during certain situations, such as bird strikes, to keep any shrapnel inside the engine casing. Investigators said a "contained" failure is still considered catastrophic, but it's an event pilots train for and is not unusual.
In the event of an "uncontained" failure, pieces of debris could have ripped through the fuselage, ruptured the fuel line, or damaged the integrity of the plane's ability to fly. This "contained" failure is better for the safety of passengers, but at the time, many described the incident as the most horrific experience of their lives.
"It was just terrible," passenger Casey Rogers said. "We thought it was over."
The flight was en route from Dallas to Atlanta Tuesday afternoon when the aircraft's left engine exploded mid-air.
One passenger told CBS Atlanta's Mike Paluska the Airbus A319 was in the air for about 20 minutes when the engine exploded.
"All of a sudden, there was a bang, and thud, thud, thud, and a boom and flames," Randy Bryan said. "The metal flapping outside, and the vibrations were scary, that was the scary part. Because at any time, something could fly off and hit the tail and we could lose control."
Bryan recorded nearly nine minutes of video as the plane descended towards Dallas Fort Worth International Airport. The video shows some passengers praying and others in a brace position. During the recording, the airplane shakes violently, making noises that any passenger would be terrified to hear.
"It was making weird sounds," Bryan said. "It was shaking so violently, when you talked you couldn't help that waver in your voice."
"It was scary," Rogers said. "I knew it blew up because that kind of loud explosion and the flames coming out and everything. I didn't know it was that serious, that parts were leaving the engine, it could have been really bad for everyone on that plane."
Rogers was traveling to Atlanta with a co-worker, Fred Edwards. The two are working an RV show for National Indoor RV Centers. Immediately following the emergency landing they were listed on another Spirit flight leaving for Atlanta. Rogers said it has been a tough couple of days juggling work, with one thing on his mind - home.
"I miss my wife, I can't way to see my kids," Rogers said. "Right now, I am trying not to think about it. I am trying to keep my head in why I am here, and that is to work, and do what I need to do here. And I am going to continue doing that."
Edwards said he is disappointed with the way Spirit Airlines handled the initial emergency. Once the plane landed safely, with no injuries at Dallas Fort Worth International, he said the company treated the passengers as if what happened was a routine mechanical issue.
"You need to take care of your passengers, you need to tell them 'we are sorry' but no answer at all, we got a $7 voucher in the airport for dinner. Find something [to buy] for $7 in an airport," Edwards said. "When they came on the speaker they said, 'We are going to give you a $100 voucher to purchase another ticket on our airline.' I don't want to purchase another ticket, I don't feel safe honestly. I'm never flying Spirit again."
A representative with Spirit Airlines sent CBS Atlanta this statement regarding the mechanical issue on the plane and the passengers' concerns:
"We understand that this was a frightening experience. We have contacted customers on the flight to assure them that their safety, as always, is our top priority.
"We commend Spirit's pilots and flight attendants for effectively managing the event with expertise and in compliance with well-trained and coordinated procedures. They displayed great professionalism, care and compassion in communicating with customers during the flight by explaining the situation and reviewing safety procedures. They, along with multiple supervisors and customer service agents, ensured that everyone was fine on landing and also assisted in getting them to another plane to Atlanta.
"When the pilots received indication of an issue, they immediately put their professional expertise and training into action in order to safely return to DFW. One engine was shut down. However, it's important to know that all of our aircraft are designed to operate safely on one engine if necessary. Customers experienced vibrations as the plane was operating on one engine and as the pilots navigated a controlled path back to DFW through weather that was in the area. It was a normal landing and customers deplaned safely with no injuries."
The NTSB said the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder were recovered. The engine, an International Aero Engines (IAE) V2500, has been removed from the plane and will be shipped to a separate facility for a detailed examination and disassembly.

Texas' First Lady visits the panhandle. Anita Perry is committed to opening more doors for women, nurses, and businesses.
Given Perry has an extensive nursing background with a master's degree and about 20 years working in departments from pediatrics to administration, we asked her about improving healthcare in Texas. Perry says, "I'm one of those who doesn't agree with sending our federal dollars to Washington. And then I think they ought to be relocated back to the state."
Her efforts have raised more than $40,000 worth of scholarships for WT nursing students over the past decade. Department Head Helen Reyes says, "Because more students can go to school, and because they're helped financially, that means that we'll have more nurses out there working. We'll have really good qualified nurses."
She has also created a one day event called Texas Conference for Women to educate and empower thousands across the state. Perry says, "It really gives women a day to just work within themselves, and to network. And to find what is good for them."
Perry spoke in Childress Thursday kicking off the city's Main Street Program for revitalization and tourism. She says, "It's an economy booster, it provides money, tourism dollars. It provides jobs. It's also to me one of the greatest benefits, it brings the community together."
She hopes to continue providing more opportunities to Texans.

1/4 cup Splenda, Stevia in the Raw Granulated Sweetener, or sugar (use Splenda or Stevia for South Beach Diet)
2 T brown sugar (or use 2 T more Splenda or Stevia if you want even less sugar)

I hate that Old Yeller was included in your recommended Dog Father movies! This movie traumatized me as a child, to this day I will not see a movie or read a book with a dog or a horse in it because the animal usually ends up in a perilous situation that I just cannot tolerate. I have never forgiven Walt Disney for presenting this as a children's movie and I don't care how "classic" the story is considered, it is just HORRIBLE!!!!!!!

You forgot "Up" (Pixar). In this animated feature, the old grump Mr. Fredrickson becomes a stand-in father figure to Russell thanks mostly to the hard work of the surprisingly realistic efforts of the golden retreiver "Dug"
In the original animated version of "101 Dalmations" (Disney) Pongo is the moving force that rescues his own family puppies when they are kidnapped, but also takes fatherhood to a whole new level and adopts the entire group of pups bringing his family count up to 101. His wife, Mrs. Pongo is basically a supporting character while Pongo is the brains behind the whole rescue.

Select 12 charms from your pack- I chose a rainbow selection from MoMo's new line, Half Moon Modern, but choose what you like- sky's the limit.
Cut a 1.5" strip from each square. You can do up to 4 at once to make it even quicker.
Now open up your biodegradable organic free-trade cardboard cozy from the unnamed coffee chain of your choice, lay it out on the wrong side of your lining fabric and trace around it.
Now, layer some batting below the shape you just traced. I used Insul-Bright by The Warm Company, because hey, coffee's hot...but any batting will work, so use what you like.
Now don't freak out because you're going to have to do a tiny amount of free-hand artwork here. No biggie- just use your pen to extend the ends of your traced shape by 1/4" on each side. The shape is slightly curved so just do your best to follow that same curve.
Now lay out the fabric strips you want to use, and order them however is most visually pleasing for you- I chose in-color order because I'm OCD like that, but yours could be scrappy...(reminder: no rules!)
If you're wondering why there are only 10 strips in this photo instead of 12, it's because I needed to throw in one "mistake" to let you know I'm human. So there you go.
Now, fold your batting piece in half lengthwise to find the center point and mark it with a pin.
Grab your 6th strip from the left (don't run away- I promise this is super simple- it's just an easy way to get everything centered), and align the right side of it with your pin, right side of the fabric facing up.
Take the next strip to the right and place it over your first strip, right sides together. Stitch 1/4" along the right edge.
Now press open the top strip. Be careful not to fry your batting during this process- use a cloth to cover the batting area if you aren't sure. Cotton would be fine, but this Insul-Bright stuff would have a melt-attack!
Continue adding strips and stitching, until you reach the end of your piece. Note how I've aligned my strips perpendicular to the batting piece and not to the previous strip- so you will end up with a gap. This will help your piecing to follow the curved shape of the cozy.
Repeat going the other direction until the entire batting piece is covered. Ooooh, looking pretty!
Here's what the back looks like.
Now take your piece of lining fabric and center it on your piece front, right sides together and pin. It's important to feel around the edges to make sure there is batting under the entire lining piece.
Stitch on your marked line around the entire piece, leaving one end open. Trim down to 1/4" from your seam.
Turn the piece right side out, poke out the corners with your scissors or a knitting needle, and press.
Your open raw edge will look like this- not to worry- he'll be sewn up soon.
1 addictive little cozy that will be smiling at you the entire way to work.
Thanks for stopping by to check out my recipe! If you like it, don't forget to leave a comment, and pop on over to my blog to say hi and check out my other tutorials and quilty ramblings.

Hi You,
I'm so excited to hosting the next 12x12 Quickpage Exchange!
This time you can have my new Kit "Under the Sea" and it is available for -25% in the shop for the first week! So hurry and check it out ;)
Everyone who participates will get all Quickpages + my great 2 Pager Quickpage Set as below!
* Each participant will submit at least 1 quick page but not more than 2 using this kit only (but you may include any commercial use supplies as well).
* Sign-ups are requested for this so that we know who is working on pages. Post here to say you are planning on participating.
* Layouts should be created and saved at 12" x 12" and 300ppi starting with a transparent background.
* If you are familiar with creating a quick page in a transparent .png file, please submit it in that format.
* If you are not, we have a couple of tutorials to help you in this area: Paint Shop Pro & Photoshop
* If you are unable to create a .png file, please design your quick page by creating your layout and using a white or black area (whichever is of most contrast to your layout) for the photo placements. Save your layout as a flattened .jpg file at full resolution (unless you are submitting a png file already). Please share this file and then post in this thread that you need help poking the holes for the pictures and I will help do those for you.
* Please name your files as follows to help me track these easier. YourForumName_KitName_qp.png so as an example, mine would be vka_UnderTheSea_qp.png
* Save a preview of your quick page at 600x600 and upload it to the Quick Page Exchange Gallery for all the oooohs and ahhhs ;)
* I will need the .png or .jpg file at the full 12x12 size for each quickpage you submit. Please do not upload the preview to the QP folder below.
In an effort to get you the albums much quicker after the exchange is over, we're implementing a new way for us to share the files.
- please upload JUST THE FULL PNG FILE to Under the Sea QP Exchange Folder
- toward the bottom of the screen you will see an "Upload Files" small window. Click the browse button inside there and navigate to your PNG file and choose that to upload.
* Your computer will then upload the file so it may take a minute or two. After the upload is completed, you will not see anything in this folder even to tell you it was successful but I'll let you know if there's a problem.
* Please post here that you uploaded so I can make sure it came through OK.
* Once the exchange is over, I will figure out who hasn't uploaded or has a problem with their files and when all is good will make it so that you can see all the files that everyone uploads and then you can download them!
* The submission deadline for this round is end of the day on 2nd July
* The deadline to upload your zip is 4th July
Please remember to
*Sign up by replying in this thread
*Post again here once you've uploaded to the 4shared folder so I can make sure they're ready to go for everyone!
I look forward already to the great Quickpages!
Thanks for playing!

Good Mail Days
Most of all, I love what I call "a good mail day". A good mail day is not just ads and bills, but maybe a little check from blogging, sometimes a package or maybe a magazine that I can sit and browse through. Yesterday there were 3 packages waiting outside my mailbox- a good booksent from my mom (thank you, Mom!), a new nursing bra I had desperately ordered this weekend, and some cute Christmas presents I had bought on sale for the boys. Isaac's bank statement told me he is a great saver and a careful spender, and that he is working hard while attending school. Our basketball tickets came and I can't wait to cheer my Uncle John on this season. It's going to be a good one.
I don't know why something so ordinary like a 'good mail day' makes me happy, but it does. Maybe it's because sometimes the day at home are long, or a little monotonous, or maybe it's just because I like a surprise here and there. I haven't quite figured it out, but I never want to lose my gratitude for the little things in life that put a smile on my face.

Fun post Sarah! That's one of the main reasons I love December so much. Happy mail every day! :)ReplyDelete
Good mail days are such a wonderful surprise! Thank goodness for the little things - yes, even mail.ReplyDelete
My husband loves to get the mail because he's always hoping he might open up a big check from a long lost relative:)) Crazy guy!ReplyDelete
You are not alone! When I hear the clink of the mailbox I practically sprint to the door to retrieve the mail. Even the kids get excited now, and want to open something. I try to wait until the mail-lady is around the corner of the house before opening the door though. :)ReplyDelete
You're not the only one! Ever feel disappointed when it's a holiday with no mail? That's me! Fun post!ReplyDelete
Ditto! Love getting mail!ReplyDelete
I love mail too. So does my husband and we fight over who gets to the mailbox first on Saturdays. I usually let him win because I do get it Monday-Friday. We both have different ideas of what good mail is and what is junk though, so if he asks me what came and I say, "junk!" it usually means nothing for me and tons of magazine subscriptions for him. Christmas is coming soon and I love getting cards. I send so many in hopes of getting as many back.ReplyDelete
This is so me! Several years ago, I actually made a scrapbook page with a picture of our mailbox and wrote about my love of "good mail days". And one of my Project 365 days was dedicated "good mail day". It is such a defining part of motherhood for me and I wanted to document how this very simple, daily act brings me an immense amount of daily joy.ReplyDelete
It's the truth! Stay at home mom here too. Makes me feel like a retired grandma, who also are pretty swift with their mail retrieval!ReplyDelete

I remember when my boys were little I couldn't wait for the mail too. We live in the country and have a l-o-n-g driveway and in the winter I would bundle them up and put them in their sled and haul them up the driveway for the mail. We were on a very limited one income and I would ask for magazine subscriptions for Christmas and my birthday...what a bonus it would be when a new magazine arrived in the mailbox.ReplyDelete
Oh my goodness! I am laughing so hard - not AT you, but because I am the same EXACT way! Especially about waiting for the mailman to be out of view before I open the door to get the mail! So funny!!ReplyDelete
I love the mail too! I always tell the kids to "bring me some Valentines", whether it's February or not. Good mail = valentines.ReplyDelete
I am completely opposite. Oh I love to get fun stuff in the mail but that's very far and few, mostly it's junk and bills. I usually go a full week before checking the mailbox. I've even been known to have the mail-lady have to drive all the way up my 1/4mile long driveway to put my mail at my door with a little note saying the mailbox was overflowing. Sad, I know but as a single mama to three who has to work outside the home, bills are the LAST thing I want to see. I guess my mind says, 'out of sight, out of mind'. LOL.ReplyDelete
I love that you share this. I wish we got more fun mail. I loved your post about imaginary friends as well. My husband teases me too.ReplyDelete
I'm glad that I am not the only one! Great Post!ReplyDelete
I love mail! I used to have a cloth diaper biz and so I received LOTS of fabric and what we all called fluff mail, cute diaper made by someone else. I love my Amazon CC btw, it makes for great mail days:)ReplyDelete
I'm only laughing because I can totally relate! The other day we had an amazing mail day: my husband and I both got our magazines and my son got a (very belated) birthday check! Can't beat that!ReplyDelete
I feel completely the same way. I am actually even more excited for my 2013 mail... I was told that at my baby shower, each guest is going to write me a note dated sometime in the first year of my baby's life. My friend will handle mailing them all so I will have thoughtful, handwritten notes for my first year of motherhood. I am just about to burst with excitement... we live in an isolated area a few hours from close friends and family, so the idea of getting sweet snailmail every so often warms my heart!ReplyDelete
But back to the present, I don't even mind catalogs this time of year. Beautiful Thanksgiving tables and glittery Christmas decor. Nothing I'd ever order, really, but fun to peruse!
I read the entire post nodding my head in agreement. I am the very same way and so is my husband. You can only imagine the race we have to get the mail. (I usually win!)ReplyDelete
Great post and thanks for making me feel normal! :)
I laughed through this because I am the same way! I wait to hear that the mail truck drove away...and then I am out the door : )ReplyDelete
A good mail day is piles of magazines (of course I will settle for one.) It makes me so happy - and of course the fam teases me.
My husband teases me that the only time I'm interested in the mail is during December when all those Christmas Cards start rolling in. :)ReplyDelete
I am so with you! I love getting the mail, as well. We live in a city that has a lot of community locked mailboxes, so we love taking walks to the mailbox each and every day (sometimes twice if we go before it comes.) It looks like yours was an awesome mail day!ReplyDelete
Thanks for all the wonderful posts - I absolutely love reading your blog :)
I love this. I'm the same way. I love getting the mail....except when it's all bills or political ads which was really had the last few weeks here in Ohio.ReplyDelete
I am a mail freak too but it goes back long before I was a Mom. My Dad always like to check the mail so I guess I get it from him. LOL That definitely looks like a good mail day to me!ReplyDelete
Oh, this is so me!! Sometimes the kids will try to get the mail and I cry out "No!! It's my thing! Don't take away my thing!". I cannot for the life of me explain why I get such a kick out of getting the mail and going through it, but darn it, I'm sure glad to know I'm not the only one!ReplyDelete
Wow! We all love mail so much, we should start doing pen pals again! Do people do that anymore?ReplyDelete
I COMPLETELY AGREE! When I was down flat on my back for 7 months due to a twin pregnancy my doctor allowed me 3 things 1. shower 2. fix my own lunch if there was no one there to do it for me. 3. go outside to the end of my driveway and check the mail (I begged for this privilege). There were times when "helpful" children, family or neighbors would bring it in for me and I would almost cry. Okay - I honestly did cry a time or two when this occured. December is the best mail month of the year!ReplyDelete
Good mail days are the best - it is one of the reason I love to send people cards. That little personal touch in the mailbox can brighten someone's day.ReplyDelete
Are you kidding? Getting the mail at our house is also a very. important. thing! For the last 12 years, my husband COMES HOME FOR LUNCH everyday, just to get the mail! He springs out of bed on Saturday morning and heads straight to the mailbox. It's a very fun thing for me to tease him about. But I have to admit, it IS exciting to get the mail. Especially the fun mail!!ReplyDelete
I think my husbands main motive is to immediately sort, file the bills and throw away the junk. Never a scrappy piece of mail left lying around.
Looks like you have lots of fun things to open!
Getting the mail seems to be one of the highlights of my day, too. I always try to do it before anyone else. I joined a site called Postcrossing.com where you send and receive postcards from all over the world. It really makes checking the mail even more fun!ReplyDelete
Amen! I feel the same way!ReplyDelete
Let us know how the book is, it looks good!ReplyDelete
Totally laughing...because I am the same way!!ReplyDelete
Yes, mail is wonderful. When it's all junk, I still try to make the most of it and take a few minutes to look it over. And soon it will be Christmas card time! Some of my favorite mail to receive.ReplyDelete
I'm trying to find your bleach post. You are good at getting your whites white and I need the tip. Do you know where I can find it? thanks.ReplyDelete
tawnie 77 @ yahoo . com
The best mail day of all is when we return from our two weeks away in the summer. The mailman drops off the full basket of mail and I'm in heaven! One year, we decided to return a day early so I had to wait an extra 24 hours to get my hands on the mail. It was agony!ReplyDelete
I love this - and I could very well have written the same first paragraph, waiting for the mailman to leave included. :) Thanks for sharing. Your posts always stick with me and encourage me to love mothering more and more.ReplyDelete
I so agree! In an age of emails and texting and on-line everything, I adore receiving mail. Catalogs and magazines(while I do love my e-readers nothing compares to physically holding those glossy pages!), even flyers and coupons. The bills...I could do without those, ha! Thank you for being real. I read often, and often relate.ReplyDelete
I'm the same way! I love knowing that something is coming in the mail almost as much as actually getting it!ReplyDelete
I love mail too! So much fun. That reminds me, I haven't gotten it yet today....ReplyDelete
Mary, momma to many
You are definitely not alone - I LOVE mail! And, it looks like a lot of others do too. ;-)ReplyDelete
I am guilty of waiting until our mailman is down the street before I go out and get the mail too. Don't want him to think I have nothing better to do than stand by the window waiting for him :)ReplyDelete
My kids love the mail, too. But I love trash day. It's like getting a brand new fresh start every Tuesday:)ReplyDelete
Same here! Although the mail man has been throwing me off lately by coming early one day and late the next. Maybe he's on to me, lol.ReplyDelete
That's not crazy at all! I'm the exact same way! Unfortunately, I don't have many good mail days.ReplyDelete
I am exactly like that. I am obsessed with the mail also. I love to be the first one to get it and I get so excited. I even give my mailman Christmas cookies when he comes around Christmas time, fresh from the oven. I was like this way before I was a mom too and I am always shocked by people who just forget to get their mail.ReplyDelete
I'm the same way about mail. I LOVE it. I look for the mail truck parked out in the street everyday around 5:00. Yes I have to wait til 5:00 or later for the mail.ReplyDelete
I have been posting 30 Days of Giving Thanks on my blog Home Ec @ Home (I used to teach highschool Home Ec before becoming a stay at home Mom). You might enjoy my gratitude posts.
I am a little sad that "good mail days" will never be the same as they used to be.ReplyDelete
As a young mom (ages ago),I loved the arrival of mail, too. My parents lives overseas and I have many friends around the world.
A good mail day ... meant two or three long handwritten newsy letters from people that loved me.
Today, I would take the fun packages, tickets and good news that was outside your door. :)
People can laugh at me too because I too wait for the mailman to come. I can hear the rumble of the mail truck from a block away and I get all giddy inside. I may not be expecting anything, but it's great to get a surprise sometimes :)ReplyDelete
I love to get the mail too ! I always look forward to my magazines and packages (sometimes I forget what I have ordered) that makes it a fun day!ReplyDelete
Congrats on the happy mail load!ReplyDelete
Please be sure to tell us what you think of the book. It looks great! I am so touched that your Mom is sending you parenting books to encourage you. Obviously you are doing a great job thus far! So sweet.
I am with you on every one of those things! A good mail day is the best!ReplyDelete
I know my mailman - I'm happy to stand and wait for him when I hear the truck coming up the road.ReplyDelete
Hilarious - I was just thinking about this the other day. I STILL love getting the mail too and I too am annoyed when someone beats me to it. LOLReplyDelete
ME TOO!! I love getting the mail, and I get incredibly sad when we either get no mail on a particular day or I have forgotten that it's a holiday.ReplyDelete
