'Tis the Season

You "can" be trapped in a room full of snakes OR you "can" be trapped in a room full of spiders.*  Ooooooh. . .   Spooooooky. . . Halloween is no big thing for me.  Never has been.  And I always cringe when it's referred to as a "holiday."  A holiday is when things are closed and you don't have to go to work.  I always had to teach on Halloween, so. . .  Yeah. This is now finished and ready for framing. That's probably as fast as I've finished a piece.  Another from  Subversive Cross Stitch .  Words and borders are pretty quickly done, and I do enjoy so many of their designs.  You can buy frames on the site, too, which I've done a couple of times, but didn't for this one. *Spiders.  They don't bother me so much.  🕷

We're nearing the end of What Would You Choose.  Prizes are boxed up.  As for today: Would you rather never sleep again OR never eat again?

The GIF was from "Bewitched."  Join me in having that theme song stuck in your head, won't you?

Who knows where yesterday's GIF came from?  Not the site where I got it, but its original source. . . Life has been turmoil this week.  Plumbing problems that had me calling a septic service, only to be told it needed to be tended to by a plumber.  My bank account/debit card was hacked again --- 3 times in a month.  Trip to the bank to try to get things under control, and hopefully they are.  All that's left is for me to have all the adrenaline and worry and stress to dump out, and to catch up on sleep. Waiting for the service guys, then waiting to turn water on and off and on while they were here, I did a lot of a cross-stitch piece. Only "You" and the rest of the border to go. I got gas yesterday, and the amount on the pump from the person before me was $148.39.  OUCH.  I realize it was probably a big van or truck, but still --- OUCH. The only food you are allowed to eat will be picked by a 3-year-old OR The only films and TV you are allowed to see w...

You will be given $1 million if you post a selfie every time you eat a meal for ten years OR You will be given $1 million if you never check social media in the next ten years.  I don't do social media now.  Where's my money?

Hold On a Minute

Pizza and cake OR tacos and pie? Should we swap places with the desserts?  Does that make things better/easier?  What kind of cake?  What kind of pie?  What kind of pizza?  There are so many POSSIBILITIES!
