It's the....Wendy and Cyndi blog!
But seriously, the mysterious W and I seem to be the only ones with any free time to do an update or 3 these days!
If anyone wanted to know how old our bunch is looking, here is your opportunity!
Hey Wendy-- If I was coming over, I think that I would bring you a New York style milk chocolate cheesecake with strawberries and heavy whipped cream. Would anyone be bringing Grandma's refrigerator rolls? I would but I can't make 'em raise and mine are always like little somewhat softish stones.
Michael just walked up to me and told me that I have to find him something to do! I don't think that I can recall ever doing that to my mom, but I am sure that it happened. So I told him to use his imagination and find something to do and he informed that "that is boring!" If only he had cousins around and not just his sister to play with. We always had the BEST games that we came up with! If it wasn't so wet, drizzly and icky outside, I would send his behind out the door. It is so warm. (It should be a small relief on the heating bills for a month!)
So what was YOUR favorite game that we came up with as kids to play together? I think that "jewelry thief" was pretty cool ( when Grandma would let us destroy her catalogs by cutting out all of the jewelry and we would hide it all around her house), but it ranks right up there with cowboys and Indians when Brad, Kevin, Karen, and I would tie up the little cowboys to the light in front of Grandma and Grandpa's house then go play our own games!
I have had no book or author of the week because I just have not read anything worth mentioning. I did start reading Sue Grafton's alphabet series but it is ho hum... Hoping to get Phillipa Gregory's new one from the library this week, but as usual in this small town, they don't have it and they have to request it from libraries as far away as Indianapolis.
Well, I am off because I have to get ready to go and bar wench tonight- fun. fun. fun....cyn

I don't think many kids were as creative as we were. I was always partial to freeze tag - where we all froze in these really odd positions and waited for someone to unfreeze us. Of course, we had the robot/monster twist to the game going on. I also loved playing "Devil" at Aunt Jeannie's house on Bellamy. The blue carpet was the water and that was safe. The older kids would hide (really well, too) and then we would have to venture out into unsafe territory to try to find them - when they jumped out we'd run screaming hysterically back to the "water." And Kip always had ice cream sandwich cookies hidden in his room which was a bonus.
What is it about that yeast Ab? I just can't seem to do anything with it either! We are the Yeast Impaired Duo!
