No, please, not the Bambi eyes!!!

I’m really sorry I’m not going to be in Balto that weekend. I won’t even mention my mom’s huge pickup that I could have used had I been in town. I can’t even volunteer my husband because he’s got to work weekends till some time in Sept, I think.

Hope you have lovely weather for your move!

I will pluck out the Bambi eyes after the moving is done, for the enjoyment of all present.

What? Isn’t that an incentive?

Here’s a bump as a reminder.

I am pulling as many strings as I can to get me and \<b\>baltotop\</b\> up there to help on Saturday. Will know my schedule tomorrow and I damn well better have gotten my requested day of Saturday off so I can help y’all. Not sure how much schelping we can do, he has had some car difficulties but provided I can get there I can haul stuff into other schlepmobiles with the best of them. But what is this with no cleaning Gingy? Hasn’t Dave ever mentioned my insane, freaky need to clean any and everywhere I go? I implore you…let me clean something if I can get there. Pretty please?

Lookit, weirdo. If YOU wanna clean, you can go right ahead. Considering the way she has treated us throughout the entire time we have lived here, she’s lucky she’s getting the house back in one piece and not-at-all-burned-down. I’m gonna do the bathroom, kitchen, and that’s about it. The floors can’t really be cleaned much as they are 162 year old unsealed hardwood.

So, we have:

Zappo  
Christina and baltotop  
Lucretia  
av8rmike  
Anita\_Vacation  
Tranquilis and Intaglio  
Perhaps Skerri, MsRobyn, and Airman Doors

Who needs directions?

Well, I need a course in String pulling 101 cuz I cannot get saturday or sunday off… blame it on the gamblers… I am the only 2nd shift person who knows lottery and has an ‘availability’ for weekends. Arghhh.

Now so far as my cleaning… I was thinking more along lines of washing the dishes after unpacking them… things for new house. The bitch form the 7th circle of hell does not get any of my cleaning help… the offer (which regretfully I cannot follow through with) was for the WeirdNorth household. 🙂 Sorry, again… Maybe if i find a rocket launcher to hit my lottery machine with?

I think that would make a few compulsive gamblers unhappy. Not to worry, Christina!
