Oh my...you and Kristie must be in the same lost land between "January can't be over! and Are you serious? It's February."

My butter bell broke too and I was very sad about it. I'm back to a cube of butter still in it's wrapper sittin' on the counter again....

Kristie said...

See, if you had stopped at "I lost" and "I broke" I would have assumed we were the same person. :)

What a creative post Alisa! Praytell, what is a butter bell?

Last week I could not find the top to the ranch dressing after dinner. I searched everywhere for it. The next day, one of the kids found it ON THE FLOOR OF THE CAR! I still have no idea what happened. This list is hilarious.

Remember when we both gave each other the butter bell? I was saddened to hear of yours passing.tenizin

Ok i typed the word verification it asked for and the word ended up at the end of my message. I'll add that one to my "Jay" list.

I would be in the nut-house right now - I can't stand loosing stuff! Makes me feeling like I am loosing my mind - I should try your "moving on" trick!

Alisa--don't feel bad...at least all the stuff you've lost is relatively small! I don't know if you remember, but years ago I bought a 3 ft. and a 5 ft. shelf to see which one I liked on my old purple wall (Provo house). I decided on the largest one, put the 3 ft. one in the corner of the girls room and literally NEVER saw it again.
I finally came to believe that my girls must have taken it outside to show some friends and it must have gotten stolen. For months I asked myself...How do you lose a 3 ft. shelf in an 1100 sq ft house??

When I got down to the end and saw november marked out, I cracked up because that's so how I feel sometimes!
