In middle & high school, my small church school did Gilbert & Sullivan plays. Anyone remember HMS Pinnafore? or Pirates of Penzance? or Aladdin and the 40 thieves? or The Mikado? Yep, we did all those. In Aladdin, I was an uncle of Aladdin in the first act and got drawn and quartered by, I think my cousin... then in the second act, came back as a thief. We didn't have enough kids for the 40 thieves, so we always made mention that the rest of them were hiding out back...
In Pirates, I was the old babysitter maid with dusted up hair. My sister was the misled young pirate, my charge, and when she pretended to slap me, suddenly really hit me and my head was in a cloud of powder. Totally unexpected... Poor maid is going to die from coughing, right there on the stage.. in front of you all...
But anyway, I've got a little list was from HMS Pinnafore, I think. "square of the hypotenuse... "
Getting to my post tho...
Hopefully... if Ryan will turn on his cell phone today... I'm going to hire him this afternoon to do some work for me around the house for a bit of the green stuff... He'd like that... I've made a little list, I've made a little list... About 11 things so far... Cleaning bathrooms, making up the spare beds, vacuuming, plugging in the freaky pilgrim people, doing a bit of outside work...
TURN ON YOUR PHONE!
Otherwise... I very well might lose my mind by Thursday...
Oops - too late.

You have freaky pilgrim people?? Awesome!
Hmmm, what are freaky pilgrim people? I have a ton to do around here today too. I actually got a little bit of a head start yesterday 'cause my parents came over to babysit so the house had to be clean. Of course, Nana lets the boys do whatever they want so, well... I'm pretty much back at square one with the cleaning.
BTW, just got the cookies!!! FABULOUS! I will try to get a post up tomorrow with a proper thank you, but as for now just picture us stuffing our faces! Thanks again, Val! :)

and why arent you a movie star with all that acting?
I have a list too,and 3 good sized kids to help me out,good luck on your list!
Well when you find your mind, see if mine is there too willya?
And if Ryan gets the phone turned on and your chores done, send him over to PA and I'll pay him big money to finish my list!lolol
If I was there I would do it for you, I figure I owe you for the wonderful cookies! Thank you not only for them but making me feel loved.
I am forcing my kids to help clean for the holidays. My son told me he hates Thanksgiving because he always has to clean.
DO you need a best friend or a wife? I'm here for both!!;) Those cookies are wonderful!!! Would you be willing to share the sugar cookie recipe or did I miss it? You are now my favorite person!
We never did those, but we did snow and the 7 dwarfs in French! Good times :) Happy Thanksgiving!
