OK--so you can't see it in the picture, but below the pirate on I-man's onsie it says "If in doubt, swab". In trying to understand more about pirate speak I came across THIS website with a pirate speak glossary! Enjoy and practice!!! Sept 19th is coming soon! Posted by Picasa

Lucky nickname

So...the other day I was reflecting on the benefits of having a nickname like Moose. The cool thing is that whenever one of my friends or family members sees something with a moose on it they think of me! Just think...all these people who know me all travelling about their day and BAM...they see a moose t-shirt or a moose picture and BAM...they think of ME!!! Isn't that kind of cool? It also leads to them purchasing the SAID moose item and sending it to ME! I have quite a collection! Lets see...recently I received a nice photo card from my friend Lizard. She had been travelling in Alaska and sent me a nice card with a moose picture along with some moose bookmarks. Other friends travelled to Maine and Vermont recently bought me some "Moose droppings" (hard maple candy, actually) and a classy moose bumper sticker. Our other friends bought us the "gorgeous" moose lamp as a housewarming gift. I-man has a few moose-stuffed animals and even Maggs has a moose-stuffed toy. I have two pairs of moose pajamas, moose towels, moose mail holder, and a moose stocking holderMy MIL got me a nice moose trivet and a moose for the fireplace. She thought she was pretty cool in finding it until she travelled in the Mpls airport and saw the store dedicated to moose stuff. I'm trying to put together moose kids books for the I-man. I have a few, but need to get If you give a moose a muffin (one of my favs). Recently, I saw this moose print on the web. Think I should get it for the husband??

book club book???

I-mans favorite book this month is called Big Rex, a big cloth book that he can read, chew on, and hug!!! Sounds like a winner for an Oprah bookclub pick?
