    Default Fun ~ No Fun

    Fun~licking the bowl after mixing up some cookie dough

    No Fun~ Having to put a new roll of tp on the thingy in the middle of the night. I really think some evil person uses extra glue on the starter piece of the roll. Not so bad in the daylight but at night?

    Fun - walking around the house all day smelling a turkey cooking in the oven.

    No Fun - trying remove the gizzards and neck from a 13lb turkey, to stuff it, butter it, tent it with tin foil, and get it in the oven all by yourself with a crying 6 month old who just wants to be held.


    Fun - sitting on the deck enjoying the sunshine and dreaming about garden plans.

    No Fun - actually carrying that much potting soil up to the third floor deck to plant said garden.
