T.G.I.F...I think.

It is here..the sniffling, sneezing, head cold because the weather went from 97 on Monday to 67 yesterday...add in all of the dust blowing from the A/C being turned on for the first time to the heater being switched back on...and then crying over a very sad scene in Grey's last night.....and a mini swarm of earthquakes....ack!!!!!

Nevertheless, today is Friday and to kick things off "Cast Boy" Ben & I are headed to the Orthopedic Dr. first thing to check the hand & speaking of hands , I am seriously up to my swollen eyeballs in kitting for Reflections...and Inspired...and my Doodle Class and a **NEW PROJECT** my Zutter hand is, well, I will cut to the chase...

I found a volunteer to help punch chipboard and pages for the kits...He showed up freshly showered and in his jammies....and although he really thought the dog should be UP ON THE TABLE while we worked ( I talked him out of that one!) he did a good job....Teresa has her Ty...and now so do I!!

I can not wait to see what I can get him to kit tonight...I may recruit more of our street men tonight since it is Friday and they will be out in front of our house looking at this

what is it you ask?? Oh, it is a big ol long shiny black Cadillac that belonged to an old jazz singer named Erroll Garner...in the 70's!!!

and why is it at my house you wonder (like the rest of our neighbors)..well, because long long ago, my great grandpa bought it from Erroll Garner...and he kept it (and drove it) and then my Grandpa inherited it...and then my dad inherited it....and guess who has inherited it now???? but guess what....

IT CAN BE YOURS (pictured those words flashing in multi-color) ...because we are selling it....

it is okay, you can laugh.  I just shake my head and twirl my eyes. 

You should see the size of this car in all of it's shining glory.  Last night as we came around the corner from Jr. High Open House, my headlights shined on the GIANT SHINY GRILL and you should have heard the jammie wearing Zutter Guy pictured above...you would have thought he'd seen Jesus!...hey, maybe that is why he was so happy to help me....

and get this....as I came home from teaching Good News Club yesterday, switching gears to get one to practice and the other to Open House, a bird poops on the Big Black Caddy...so my gosh, stop the presses....the entire car must be washed.....

take a look at the photo...TAKE A LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THIS CAR....it is no small quick job, and can I add that I have had bird poop, butterfly guts and random bee butts on my car for at least the past week and nobody seems to jump at that??????

so, just in case your husband is peering over your shoulder either because you are laughing hysterically at this or oohing at my studly man with the pink Zutter, you might want to see if he is interested in the BUYING the Big Black Caddy....please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I may even go as far to say that I will fill up the ridiculously sized trunk full of paper crafting supplies should one of you buy it...and THAT WOULD BE ALOT OF STUFF!!!!!

Don't be jealous, but this is what I see EVERY SINGLE GLORIOUS GOD GIVEN DAY out my front window...

 

and it can be yours....just send me an email and I will give you all of the details!

Have a wonderful Friday...

p.s.again, it is okay to laugh at this...it is NEVER a regular ol' dull moment around here.

You mean you don't want to keep this for Jack's first car? You'd surely be able to keep sight of him! That Valentine, what a sweetie! My hubs has been helping me with wedding wine charms and the like - what would we ever do without them? I am so excited for you for Reflections and Inspired - it will definitely be a great time!

[Deborah]

Oh my goodness, too funny. "The Life and Times of the Ackermans" would be a good title for a new album with a pic of the Cadillac, of course. :) I'm not even showing my husband the Cadillac pic, so sense giving him false hope for one of these. tee hee! :) Have a blessed day.

you could have at least got him a BLUE Zutter!!! i'll send mine down for cry eye!! poor Valentine!! Rah Rah for him helping you out tho!! i'm having the same reaction to our air/heater too!! i think swollen eyes should be the new FAD!! wink!! enjoy your weekend.

[Echo]

I love it! You should keep it for your son's first car. He'd get no where fast...0 to 60 in about 5 minutes! Thanks for sharing, it sure did bring a a chuckle this morning.

I too cried my eye's out at Grey's last night! I was so upset, that I told the hubby, "I'm not watching THAT show anymore. . . it's just too sad"! But of course, I will, my favorite! Have a great weekend!

[Linda]

mmmm - what a cutie! AND he crafts, no wonder you snabbed him up!

At least the car isn't yellow. My parents had a yellow one they inherited from my Grandmother.I called it the banana boat. It had to be the ugliest car on earth. I feel your pain LOL!
