Six Thoughts for Sunday…
1. Yesterday my husband took a hunter education course so that he could go deer-hunting. He went hunting last year, but he had a deferral. This year, he had to actually attend the course if he wants to get his license.
And he was worried about the test. He studied. He fretted. He looked things up on-line so he could be prepared.
Him: “ I really hope I do well on the test.”
Me: “Um… honey? Have you *seen* some of the toothless nitwits that hunt in our great state? You’ll be fine.”
2. Turns out that the week after you get home from Disneyworld is chock full of laundry, homework, cranky children, and… laundry. Lots and lots of laundry.
3. Our fall schedule has now kicked into high gear, and I think we have something on the calendar for every single weekend until Thanksgiving. And I *wish* this was one of those times when I was exaggerating. (not that I *ever* exaggerate. Nope. Never.)
4. I love yummy, smell-good candles, and I love to burn them and fill up my house with the smell of fresh baked sugar cookies, or apple pie, or pumpkin bread (funny how I always pick food-scented candles.) But I have to admit that I’m forever astonished at how expensive wax has gotten. It’s WAX, people!
5. Oh, and speaking of candles… did anyone EVER go on a tour of that Candle Factory that was in Georgetown? I spent years driving past it, and reading their roof, but I never actually made it in. Was it actually a candle factory (aka: expensive wax storage facility) or was it a front for the Georgetown mafia?
6. No time for thought #6. As we speak, my husband is trying to pull my son’s tooth with a pair of pliers.
Yet another time when I wish I was exaggerating…

Don't waste your time driving to Georgetown in hopes of getting some great smelling candles. Instead you get the hippie looking multicolor, hand sculpted type of candles. Plus it's not very big either. Have you tried Scentsy candles? They last a lot longer than the flame kind and have all your wonderful food scents too.
Seriously, I pulled that tooth for a total time of an hour over the past week. If it hadn't come out last night with my last ditch effort, I had a pair of needle nose vise grips at the ready. True Story!
