  • A timeout.  There are days that I think I'd shell out money to get a few minutes of silence in the corner alone.

    That’s a good one...Just one hour of silence in the corner. Maybe you’ll get that in 15 years? I’ve Lost track of your kids ages :)

  • 15 years is a possibility if they don't turn out to be freeloaders.

    You can always have a time out on the corner of my couch... just sit there and be silent! That would last two minutes though  Cos I never shut up ;) You probably get more peace at home with screaming kids lol.

    Lol, I’ve seen you post you don’t have friends before and I find that hard to believe...You’re one of the most easy going likeable people here. Are you a monster in real life????

    What's up with the holes in the board? 
    It seems like that would make it more like a whiffle ball!

      That’s so the meat gets sucked into them upon impact, causing both more pain and a tiny circular welt . . . listen, it’s much more difficult to explain, I’d rather demonstrate it to you. Be right there.

    Oh, I think you can like me.  It's still a punishment to me too BUT it is also a Goal!!
    Big winks and smiles!!
    ... Don is a big contributor to my ongoing punishment on this matter.  The GOAL is to get him to to pick them up, as well.  His and mine!  ;) :)
    Such a simple task.  It's not like we live in a mansion.  From our bed to the laundry basket, let alone the laundry room, is a mere 7 steps.  You have to walk around the kitchen. 
    I'm tellin' ya.  It's a journey!!

    Lol! I like you! You know that. I meant it like this: “ I wish I could, like you.” And now I see the importance of the comma -_-

    Did not like taking naps as a child , as an adult after work I love coming home and sneaking in a 20-minute nap if I can. :)
