Guesses-
#1 tin man and buckboard
#2 columbines
Melinda

Jeez, Melissa! If that happened to me, I probably would NEVER go back to the dentist! Maybe you need a new dentist??)

Earthly, yeah, that sounds about right. You could put all I know about computers on the top of a pinhead . . . maybe the point of a pinhead. Disregard anything I ever say about them, LOL.

I was sure Treasa had it with tricycle. This is tough:

1. Tin man and skateboard
2. Columbines

Dottie

1. buckboard and tin man
2 columbine do I got it yet ? how are the octoplets doing miss bunny. it's snowing like mad here not sticking to the ground tho hugs ready to play for april carol

Carol~ We found out that they're all identical. All boys.

Melinda, Dottie & Carol have 2 answers correct now!color>
Still looking for the second correct answer for #1. :O)

lol
it must be

1. tricycle and tinman
2. columbines

have a great day everyone.

Okay, Melissa, is it-

1.tinman and train
2. columbines

Melissa, would love to see pics of the octopus.

Carol, I suppose you have 21 feet of snow by now?

The ocean in my front yard looks so peaceful today. My cats went for a swim after boogieboarding.

Maryanne, I will join this month.
Mary Ellen

YAY!size>color>

We have a winner!

Congratulations, Mary Ellen!size>color>

My grandma does indeed have a TRAIN (an old one from a miniature train set, it has a bench seat for kids to sit in & ride) and a TIN MAN (he's about 4 foot tall, and has a hole on top of his head....this gets filled with seasonal decor- last July 4th, it he had flags standing in his head..LOL).

As for the columbines....I have no idea how they got into my flower bed....unless the girls scattered seeds there. Which they probably did, that's how I got poppies last year. LOL But the darn things are taking over now. That's OK, though...at least they're pretty. :O)

Mary Ellen~ I'll be getting your prize out to you ASAP.

Thanks for playing, everyone!
There'll be another game posted next week.

Congrats, Mary Ellen!!!
That was a toughie! Good job Melissa!

Ladies, I feel really, REALLY guilty for winning this game. I just read through the comments and deduced what the answers had to be. I feel really weird winning this. So why did I guess? Umm...I don't knowww...as the kids say.

The wind has been blowing like a son of a gun the past 3 days. Almost unbearable. Too much to be outside to even try to do anything. Besides, it is a cold wind. Spring, where are you??? I see some daff leaves coming up and tulip leaves, too, but that is the extent of it. Sounds like more snow/rain tomorrow.

Marie, I think of you now and then during the day. You're such a nice lady that I just want things to get easier for you.

Some of you and dentists--I just don't know. When I was growing up, the dentist we went to did not use anything--novocaine, gas, etc. For years after that I would not go to a dentist. We finally found a pain-free dentist about 25 years ago. Give me the shot and the gas and I'm good to go. Don't stress about it anymore.

Frances, praying that "stuff" quits happening to you and life gets back to whatever normal is.

Carol, are you better yet, my friend? The kids at school have been coughing and sneezing all over me. I still love 'em though. Woke up with a sore throat this morning but it's gone now. I just CAN'T miss anymore school!

Sue, I'm sorry to hear about your wall. At least noone was hurt.

Remy, I planted all of the tomato seeds that you sent me in the seed swap a couple of months ago. Each variety has some coming up. Yahoo!!! I hope I can keep them healthy enough to get them outside. Hubs is thinking of putting some of them in the bottom of 5 gal. buckets and hang them. Grow them upside down. Tried it last year, but the place he had them hanging from was not stable so the bucket kept falling. So, no tomatos.

Well, I have decided that I am going to retire from teaching in 1 year. In other words, I will teach 1 more year and be done. The school board offered a retirement package that was hard to refuse. There will be about 5 other teachers retiring the year after I do. I will be a rather young retiree--56 by then--but that is fine. I absolutely love what I do, but I don't want to do it til I'm 65 or whatever. I will probably find some kind of part time work and/or sub. teach.

That's it from here,
Mary Ellen

Congratulations Mary Ellen...WAY TO GO.. How nice to be able to retire in another year. I guess since I do not have retirement where I work I will have to work forever. I messed up staying as long as I did with the job I now have.

Melissa-I figured out the train when you mentioned we were on the right track...great hint, fun game.

Maryanne-You sound like DH pulling your own teeth. I beg for the novacaine when I go to the dentist, I'm the biggest chicken ever.

Shirley

mary ellen, tsk, tsk...you should feel guilty - these ladies were working so hard and you came in and kicked them out!!!!! melissa, send her a prize from the broken prize box LOL (ME - you know i'm just playing with ya, right?) congrats on the retirement plans.

I posted this over on the MNF forum, but it's just so darn humorous that I have to share it with ya'll, too.
True story, I didn't make any of this up. (I wish I had, though!)

We did have an exciting April Fool's day here, though.
Ya'll know we're cleaning up from that darn ice storm we had back in January. (UGH!) It's amazing the sheer number of branches and twigs that are still on the ground. And when you've got 2 acres to clean.....OY.....
ANYWAY. When the limbs & trees snapped from the 3" of ice on them, they were so heavy that when they hit the ground, many branches got pushed into the ground several inches ( I was pulling some out yesterday that were as deep as 12"!)

So basically, what you have is a yard full of booby traps. Nice little spikes sticking up out of the ground anywhere from 4" tall to a few FEET tall. And the little ones are HARD to see.

So what happened is Adora was walking outside BAREFOOT (which I did NOT know!) and she happened to step on one of the 4" high ones. A nice, jagged one. Luckily, it only took a big chunk off the side of her foot, and didn't go through.

THEN, as I was loading the back of the truck up with branches (that poor, poor truck...it looks like it's been through a war after all this!) a big limb knocked me upside the head (like I needed that, I'm nuts ENOUGH as it is!). So I've got a 1.5" long cut & knot on my forehead. But if it was an inch lower, I'd have a black eye...so THAT'S good.

AND THEN!!!! Hubby was up on our hill, doing cleaning up there, and he walks into the house a bit later, and says.."I'VE BEEN STABBED". I'm thinking...."ha ha, april fools...ha. ha."
He's like..."No, REALLY, honey....I've been stabbed!"
And he pulls up his shirt, and SURE ENOUGH....right in the gut!
OY OY OY.
Seems one of those broken off staubs got him as he was coming down off the hill. He jumped the last few feet of a ledge, and came down on the staub. UGH!

Yes, so our day was ever-so exciting.
I'm glad it's over.

I'm not doing yard work for at least another week.
:P

Maryanne, My dear and wonderful "friend!" I will have to remember you on your birthday with a broken gift. HA! Of course, I know you are kidding. :)))

Melissa, Sounds like the stick monsters were out to get you yesterday. I thought maybe you were going to say that you pulled on one, and it turned out to be a snake.

I am IN for this month, Maryanne.
ME

Last night, my dh came down in the basement where I was tending to my little seedlings. He was, oh so serious. Said he saw three mice in our bedroom. Fat ones. Three of them. I was so bewildered. How could he have seen three fat mice? I haven't seen a single one anywhere. Then, he said, "And, one of them has three eyes". Then he said, "Got ya!". I was relieved, cuz I have "places" that would have made excellent breeding grounds.

Hey, Mellen, lucky for you that I was at work, and wasn't home to put in one last guess. ; ) LOL Treasa

Sorry to be so long in deciding, but I think I will sit out this month. Things have been really busy here and I just need to get caught up on all the stuff that I have not found time to do here at home.
Speaking of April Showers - yes, we have them here since April began, yesterday and today. LOL
Have fun!
Jeanne

OUCH melissa... all of that sounds horrible. i have been dumb enough to lean over to pull a weed and get a stake in the eye. believe me, it's not fun. i am forever doing damage to my eyes.

treasa - mice...not one of my favorit things. before i purchased my house, we were living in a rental unit that was infested. it's how my son contracted lyme disease. maybe i should make a contest and have you all guess how many i trapped in just one day. or the time i was taking everything out of the pantry to put into containers and i could hear that scratching sound and i pulled out a box of rice and one ran up my arm, across my chest and down the other side until i threw it hard and far across the kitchen. we moved real quick from that place. other than clothes and some kitchen items, we never unboxed our life while we waited for the house.

hmmm, no april fool's joke shere - thank goodness.

maryellen, i re-did the list to add you and forgot you. so sorry.

i am hoping to get my car back tomorrow. three things got changed in it and the last was something to do with the computer. thank goodness, because this bus riding and relying on people to get me where i need to go, and believe me, the only place i've really gone is to work, has been rough. makes me really appreciate what i have.

here's our update. i'm going to come up with a game soon. it's all about the fun things i've talked about and then some. put your thinking caps on.

anyone watching dancing with the stars?

UPDATE - waiting to hear from those in bold.

Hi, Ladies-Maryanne, I will join this swap & sorry it took me this long to decide. Sounds like another great one.

Amy & Sue-Sorry for all the stress in your lives at this time. I know getting involved in these RR's sure help me with that & it is so much cheaper than other things we could do to cope!

Shirley-I really enjoyed the pictures of your place & the trees. They are just beautiful.

Theresa-I loved your pictures of your flowers & the mommy bird. What is the beautiful blue in the 1st picture? You are an expert with PB it seems. I am trying to learn more but haven't had much time to do that lately.

Marie- I loved the pictures & what a talented lady you must be with quilting & all. The horse pictures are outstanding.I do hope things clear up for you soon. Seems you have had lots of problems lately.

Bunny-I love your pictures of Lili. What a precious little one. I can't believe you are getting more ice. The game you had for us was great & caused lots of interest, too.

Welcome to all you new members. I know you will enjoy this group of lovely ladies who are so helpful.

To those who can't join this month-please keep posting here. I know we all enjoy hearing what is going on in your worlds.

It is cold, windy & rainy here with a chance of snow the next few days. Seems more like fall than spring. At least it makes me feel not quite so bad as I don't have my WS'ing done yet.

Looking forward to the names being posted & thanks Maryanne & Melissa for hosting. Blessings, Margaret

Congrats MaryEllen and Bunny on the 8 boys. If I had to be beaten I am happy it was you. we were all copying each others guesses so enjoy your gift you deserve it big hugs carol. should have known that if there was trouble to get into Adora would be there, glad no one was seriously hurt. don't let Adora take lily out to the yard. just joking but she does seem to be a lil redhead. can't wait for my name I did a lil shopping today, still sick but wanted to get out of my germs. hugs carol

Melissa,
Oh my gosh! Your poor little girls foot, and then your head and then your poor hubby... geez what's next for you guys?

Sue,
So sorry to hear about your beautiful vine.

I think Mellen should get something from the "broken prize box" too! Sneaky gal! he he. Just kidding Mellen.

Shirley,
I'm with you in being one of those chickens! I hate going to the dentist.

Carol,
Hope you are feeling better soon. Took me 2 months to get over my cold.

Getting my sutures out today. I know it's healing because feels itchy in my mouth. That sounds odd, but only way I can describe the feeling.
Taking my Mom around town today. She has alot of shopping to do. She doesn't drive and my Dad gave up driving 4 years ago so they both really rely on my younger sister and I to get them around.
I enjoy it though. My Mom is only 72 and never did learn to drive. All of us tried to teach her when she was much younger but it just always ended up scaring her. I can't imagine not driving myself, but we are all different.
Later today I hope to get my tomatoes planted in w.s. containers. Also do some more soil amending and weeding.

Hope you all have a wonderful day,
Cindy : )

Oh Dear, Melissa! What a day.

Margaret, the blue flowers have a story to them. I was out in the garden walking around wondering what was blooming with such a heavenly scent. It wasn't until I looked up that I saw the Wisteria in the tree was in bloom. It is easily 30 feet tall!

Yes, I have been watching the birds again today and they are definitely chickadees. Funny thing is that the research I have done online does not show them existing here. Maybe just passing through but they say that they like a permanent residence. Hmmm....

Theresa

Melissa-No wonder you guys are not doing yard work for another week, it will take that long for your wounds to heal. OUCH

Cindy-Glad to hear you are healing. When I have something getting better it always starts itching in the healing process.

Maryanne-I watch Dancing With The Stars. Who do you think will win this year?

I have a funny mouse story to tell. I was sitting at my desk one day and heard a scratching noise coming from my desk. I just knew a mouse was in my desk and was afraid to open the drawers in fear it would jump on me. I called Matt (a co-worker) and asked him if he was afraid of mice. He said no why, and I told him I thought one was in my desk. He came into my office and started opening each drawer to see if there was a mouse.

I was standing behind him in case he found it. Well he opened all the drawers and no mouse. I said I swear Matt I heard scratching noises. About that time he spied the wooden platform under my desk that a guy at work had made me to rest my feet on. He kicked it up and there was the mouse in a corner of that foot rest. I let out a scream that would wake the dead and Matt said I just about gave him a heart attack. Ernie my boss came running down the hall yelling what is it? When he found out it was just a mouse he said "Women". They ran that mouse all over the offices in and out, and up and down the hall with a broom. I was up in a chair at this point. They finally killed it with the broom. I'm not afraid of spiders but mice and snakes I don't like.

Shirley

Hi All,
Geesh, it has been too long since I posted.
I got home from the annual Easter season visit to the Broadway Market a little while ago. I know I've told you older members before, but the Broadway Market is a very old place in the now really bad section of Buffalo. At Easter though lots of people go, and it is nice. I took Hilde my friend from Norway so that worked out nice being she had never gone. She loved it.

Mellen,
Congrats on the win!!
It will be nice to be a young retiree!
I'm happy to hear your tomatoes are coming up.

Melissa,
Please don't go to the same dentist, lol. I'm sorry everyone in your family is stabbing themselves. I just cut myself on the new knives my MIL gave me. Gary warned me and I still cut myself, lol. So I'm here typing with a paper towel over my finger.

Sue G.,
I'm sorry to hear about your damage.

Amy A-Z,
I hope your weather is getting better.
Wax figures, So if you ever come to Niagara Falls you don't want to go to Mme. Toussaud's Wax Museum? Lol. I don't like them either.

Theresa,
You've got Carolina Chickadees. They look almost like the Black Capped Chickadees and their song/call is slightly different. Carolina ones stay to the south.

Dottie,
Once you get the pics on photobucket, I can talk you through getting them on here : )

Cindy,
I'm glad you are healing good.
It is funny how so many of the older ladies never learned to drive. My one grandmother never did. My other grandmother did only at my mother's insistence since she and my grandfather were both ill with cancer. Thankfully she did learn to drive since they both died, but now she can't again since her back got so bad. I'm glad though because now she is getting weaker and would be a road hazard.

Treasa,
That was a good April fool's joke. No one played any on me this year.

Shirley,
That is too funny about the mouse. I'm not too scared of them since I used to have pet rats(lab rats, not wild ones, lol.) But if I'm somewhere and one jumps out of something close to me, I'll scream too!

Hi to everyone else!! : )
Remy

Here is a link that might be useful: Carolina Chickadee

Hi everyone,

Hope you are having a good weekend. It's been another one of those busy weeks. Just wanted to pop in and let you know that I would like to participate in the swap this month. Will write more later when I get a chance.

Dianne

Here's where we stand.

what i jammed pack morning i had. got up early, transplanted a bunch of tomato seedlings, then i scraped all the old caulking from around the tub and scraped and sanded the wall around the tub where the paint was chipping away, then took a break and watched two episodes of a series i'm trying to catch up on. then i took my son to an appointment and while he was there, i food shopped. on the way home we stopped at a few farmer's markets and then went out to lunch. came home, put groceries away and then i went to #8 (see game question) to avoid #6. other than dishes, was very lazy the rest of the day.

some good guesses so far girls. cindy, you made me laugh on answer #2. that's not half as embarassing as what i actually did! you are the closest on #5. carol, you are so very close on #3. jeanne is in the right ballpark on #7 and shirley, you are dead on with #6.

maryanne

I received some special gifts from Melissa today for winning her game. She sent lemon fragranced hand lotion, B&B cucumber melon hand sanitizer, and some coneflower seeds. Wonderful!!! Thanks so much, Melissa!

Maryanne, here are my guesses:

1. 7
2. passed out
3. fair one/light one
4. Depends
5. 14
6. clean house
7. tea cups
8. bathroom
9. crime/mystery
10.7 1/2

Well?
Mary Ellen

Good morning girls.
I'm heading to Home Depot and then out into the yard, but first, I thought I'd take another shot:

1. 13
2. wet the chair
3. Godsend
4. lawn chair
5. 4
6. housework
7. teapots
8. yard
9. horror

10. 9

Mellen~ I hope you enjoy them, I know I go through both lotion & sanitizer like crazy.:O)

Maryanne~ ICK YUCK GROSS! With the mice! I can relate- the last duplex we lived in, we had mice. We didn't know just HOW bad until we moved out, went back later that week to clean....and they were literally an inch deep in my boy's bedroom closet! There must have been hundreds of the critters.
I don't think I stopped shuddering for a week!
I STILL freak when I see a mouse in the house.
UGH. Never again.
*shudder*

I hope everyone is having a great weekend so far! We're in a for a hard freeze in a few days, so I have to bring all my plants BACK inside, and I'm glad I've been lazy on starting the garden this year. LOL No seedlings to worry about.

Have a good one, everyone!
Melissa

good morning everyone

maryellen - depends was one of the funniest things i ever received (thanks carol) but not the strangest.

dottie you are over on 1 and 10 and way too low on 5 and even though jeanne and mary ellen were in the right church, wrong pew, you are spot on #7.

so now, 3 of you guessed #6 correctly.

i'm trying to figure out how to give you a clue to #2, but i'm loving all the answers to that one so far.

beautiful day out today, especially after the outrageous winds we've had for the last few days. but as of right now, i'm inside, doing much needed and overdue #6.

have a good morning, be back later.

maryanne

Shirley,
Too bad! You have to get up this way sometime.
I had a dream the other day, I forgot to tell you. It must of been the tree pics. I went to visit you in my dream, and it was so pretty.

i am having a lot of fun with this game.

cindy and carol, on #2, i laughed so hard at your answers. i will say cindy's mind is working towards the real answer. i am wondering if anyone will ever get it. just think of all the actions a dentist does to prep you - well, at least my dentist does it (and dang, is he one good looking man !!!!)

amy was the closest on #1 and then shirley answered it correctly.

#3 i might take some liberties with, because several of you are close, but i guess it's tough if you don't know her name. i think i've only used it two or three times in previous posts.

finally, someone got my shoe size.

the right answer to 4 has been guessed and answered correctly twice today, although in different words.

so now, 1, 4, 6, 7 and 10 have all been answered correctly.

and carol, yes, the razor was a great gift and to this day, i still use the same kind.

i'm starting a new post where partners will be assigned.

i'll post this over there as well.
