that is what I call a positive for real Rose.

I'm still trying to come up with one today.  Your positive is big enough though.  I'll just share it for now.

Oooo...you make bags jbeany??!! Where do you sell them? Do you have a website where we can see them and buy something?

No website.  I'm signed up for my first flea market in two weeks.  If it goes well, I may get ambitious and figure out how to put stuff on etsy.com, though.  I'm afraid if I start though, I'd spend all my hard-earned cash on the other great stuff on there!

Nice job advocating, Rose!

Manda, Pan Pizza?  Oooooohhhhhh - I'm jealous!

Don't be Jbeany I am paying for it today.  Like everytime I take my pee pill it is all or nothing.  Today it is all.  I went and got my labs done and the doc just called me. My Potassium is way to low, so he has me taking 2 freakin supplaments every 4 hours.  I just started to :puke; cause like always I can only handle so much.  He says if I pee to much more I need to go in to the ER. What the hell is to much more?

Ahhh I could shoot myself for eating that pizza!

Oh and what kind of bags do you make? Do you have any pictures to post?  I wanna see.

And Aleta your pole dance looks like a lot of fun.

The 6th graders finished writing their final drafts on their stories.  I have three, two absent and one slow thinker still working on theirs Monday. I love it when a plan comes together.

Hmmm - okay, now I'm glad I stuck with my nice, safe chicken dinner!

I started out with basic totes, now I'm playing with purse designs.  I need batteries for the digital before I can post pics.  If I can remember, I'll but some on the crafts and hobbies thread.

Hello?  We do know what that pole in a May Day dance was meant to represent, right?  It is a fertility dance for spring, after all!

Hey, Dan,
Just in case you aren't being a smart a**, here is the info from Wikipedia:

According to the polemic anti-Catholic pamphlet, The Two Babylons, the origin of the maypole dance began in ancient Babylon during sex worship and fertility rites. A carved upright representation of the human penis was danced around by young females and woven with ribbons to ensure offspring.

See why I did NOT want to get into that on TV??? :rofl;
