what the hell wednesday? 2 things!

what the hell ?
part 1

First do you see this bank? do you know what is in here?? it isn't money! let me just say some swifty (aka one of my brilliant chilluns) had the bright idea of saving their grapes in the change bank! this fabulous little jar bank adds up the money you put in. and keeps a running total for you, until you reset it or it reaches $999.99! yeah a thousand bucks essentially in small change. i told our kids they had to do their part to save up to go to Disneyland. when they reach the $999.99 we'll go! and i have to say it has done wonders for them . they are very careful with the change they find. and responsible with the jar too. until today!

see they have already saved ...
but it got too full so we had to put it in the bank. and this is what they do with it while it is empty? gimmee some quarters baby! EWWW on the grapes! i'm just glad i discovered it before they started to mold! because it would've gone straight into the trash . mold is not my friend!


I'm pretty sure this was the swifty behind the grapes. good thing she is cute!
and there was no mold! what i really wonder is what the other kids did when they witnessed the event in question? probably fought over who got to hold the jar! i heard a fight break out around it, but couldn't tell what was inside at the time. good thing i thought to look!

----------------what the hell?--------------

part 2

and did anyone try to see hotmama's blog? it has gone missing. we have some suspicions about it. see anonymous comment on the top ten Tuesday post. anyway hard to track down a missing blog. so no she didn't go private suddenly , her blog was STOLEN! and deleted!! shocking i know! So that is all we know for now but I'm sure she will resurface soon enough in one form of blog or another! Since she is obviously, seriously addicted like the rest of us!

---------------------------------------------

and update on the strep epidemic. so far Liberty didn't have it! yay, according to the quick test. and Lance and I have appointments tomorrow morning after the costume parade! i am so glad it starts early or i was gonna miss it because of the Dr's appointments! this is Peyton's last year to participate! and Joy's first! it is a big year! i'll be sure to take some pictures! i know you can't wait! my throat is feeling hot, and weird. and i have had a headache! do you think i have it? i can't remember the last time i had strep, maybe not since i had my tonsils out. HMMM interesting. I'll let you know!

Funny about the grapes. Good thing you caught it. And what a fun bank! Where'd you find that? Boo needs a new one and he is constantly wanting to count his money, so one that counts it for him would be fabulous!! That is so weird about hotmama's blog! How does that even happen??

Andrea said...

Funny kids saving the grapes! Glad u caught it b4 the mold. It's hard to be mad sometimes when they're so darn cute.

Weird about hotmama's blog! I just checked it yesterday morning or the day before.

See u at the parade!

hee hee You kids sound too funny. I'm sure my boys would LOVE your house! Lucky for you you did find it before it molded. My middle one decided to put cheese in his along with some change. It was the most discusting thing I have ever seen. I don't know how long it was in there but it was melted and green and (I'll spare you the details) but like you it was GONE. YUCK!!

I'm happy to hear that hotmama didn't just banish us all from her site. Weird to have your blog stolen. What the hell??

Joni said...

We have that money counter too! That could have been a great science experiment! I don't do mold either!

michelle said...

I think the Disneyland plan sounds fun! What a neat idea to save change to make it happen! Change does add up soooo fast!

What in the world with Hotmama! I just sent an e-mail to her. Darn those people that have to much time on their hands, and want to stalk! Eeeekks!

Have a wonderul Halloween! I loved reading your post this morning!

What a great little jar! I would have tossed the whole thing to if there was mold! Keep us updated on Hotmama.
Have a happy Halloween!!

Brandi said...

The things kids think of!! LOL-- That is nuts that Hotmama's blog disappeared.. I'm kinda freaked out now, that someone would be able to do that.. I'm curious to find out what actually happened...
