A little advice

I chose number 3 today although it is more of a warning than advice.

If you go into a store like lets say Wally World or Tarjay and your child begs you for a game that we will call Chipmunk Zoo, (not really the name, but I don’t want to be sued by said game maker), anywho do not even consider it..walk away.  This game all be it fun and gives you peace and quiet for hours because they are hard at work building their chipmunk zoo, but when they have saved umpteen zoo’s on your hard drive and you go in and delete quite a few because you computer is running like the slowest turtle that ever lived you will be greeted with crying and how you deleted the best chipmunk zoo they ever made for the same amount of hours that you enjoyed that peace and quiet while they were building the zoo.  So again run don’t walk to the nearest exit of the store and don’t look back…the hours of peace and quiet are not worth the hours of tears and looks of shear disappointment that you will be given.

The Prompts:
1.) Grab your current read. Let the book fall open to a random page and share two “teaser” sentences from that page, somewhere between lines 7 and 12.
2.) What do you aspire to be?
3.)Share a piece of unsolicited parenting advice...only I'm soliciting it.
4.)Tell us about your blogline...how long have you been blogging, when did you start, what were/are your goals for your blog, etc.
5.)If you had 5000 dollars to give away or donate to a charity...explain what you would do with it and why.

Which one will YOU choose??

Well I won them from my friend Greg @ Greg's General Store and we got them on Friday so on Saturday we were going to plant them but a Monsoon decided it wanted to visit us and ruin our whole day…the nerve, so we ended up planting them Sunday.  Here are some pics…Just to let you know it was 100 degrees and I was sweating something fierce, those who know me know I do not like to sweat ever.  Thank Goodness the pool was near by or I would not have made it.
