I feel sure that was invented by a cook who worked hard on the crust and hated seeing it left on the plate. ;-)<br />My own teacher adage was that if I scolded the entire class, the only ones feeling bad would be the ones who hadn't been making trouble in the first place.

The reappearance of the earring is truly a mystery.<br />I had just cleaned the bathtub, it houses the drying rack for my running clothes.<br />Here is the strangest part, I was wearing the earrings and when I saw one in the bathtub I first thought one had fallen out. I reached up and felt, earrings still intact in my ears.

As for the car thing, the last car I paid off made it five whole months before some lady decided she could beat me through an intersection (I had right of way). Or maybe her elderly Nissan Sentra just wanted to die. But did it have to take my spiffy black 45th Anniversary Edition Mustang GT down too? And here I sit, only a few months from paying off the replacement Mustang. I'm starting to worry.Gigi Norwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00495357787099352860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-22951951697330944872019-09-13T14:57:07.229-04:002019-09-13T14:57:07.229-04:00She obviously has catsShe obviously has catsFintahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17087809450585073206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-45778353403652123502019-09-13T14:45:31.264-04:002019-09-13T14:45:31.264-04:00She had a tough recover, poor thing, and they didn...She had a tough recover, poor thing, and they didn't want to release her until she could take at least a litre hydration by mouth over the course of a day.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09553268569509053159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1001156153899984046.post-73736308819462315112019-09-13T14:44:32.018-04:002019-09-13T14:44:32.018-04:00In the bathtub?!?

One month before their final payment some texting driver slammed into his back end while he was stopped at a red light, and propelled him into the also stopped car ahead, accordioning their previously pristine car.

That it's a full moon on this particular Friday the 13th, is lots of fun, too. <br /><br />Love the new superstitions commenters are leaving here. One I'd like to add to justify my book buying is the following. Pass up buying a book you want and you will live to regret it. Another book one might be that not taking a book to read at a doctor's appointment ensures that you will have at least an hour wait time.
