Need, Want or Desire?

So, in during my research into sock machine, I have found out that some VERY smart and talented person has taken the time to re-make these wonderful antique machines. Guess what is on my wish list? New Zealand Auto Knitter which is $1710 post paid to my door plus $200 to have custom painted. And if you don't know yet...my favorite color is RED.

HMMMM....maybe I should add a donation button to my blog and then inform all my friends and family that they should visit it...how cheesy would that be? Luckily, I have no problem with being cheesy.

I love you Mommy Dearest!!!


I have been outed. My family and I went to a July 4th BBQ at a friends house. The neighbor every year have a HUGE fireworks display. I can't even remember what my daughter was asking me for but the timing was just right for when I respond with "How do you ask?" I want my children to be polite and have good manners....please....thank you....is that too much to ask for? What does my daughter respond with? "Please mommy dearest?" Like I said the timing was just right...right between the fireworks and EVERYONE around me heard her. Granted, I don't beat my kids with wire hangers...I just won't respond without the right response. It was so funny. Sometimes I think my kids are seals and I need to train them. Sometimes, I just don't realize what sticks.
