I laughed hilariously at you parking in front of Target and sticking your tongue out at people! Isn’t it amazing what Christmas shopping will bring out of you. LOL

I’m glad your parents banned “the R word,” because it’s disrespectful and at the expense of people, like my daughter–who also has autism–and others with Intellectual DisAbilities. Yes, that’s the new term now and the capped “A” is my addition. Our culture has a number of examples where a segment of society has chosen to change what they wish to be called because one term becomes perjorative. The most common other example: people of color. So, the “R” word is not harmless. Submitted kindly here and without assumptions….

I found you in a Google search for something else and came here regarding the purse drive. I will give this some thought as I am in the process of doing such purging of my and my daughter’s “stuff.” Thank you for doing this lovely thing.

My best.

I’m such a bad present wrapper. I should take lessons.

Merry Christmas, Kelly.

Hey Woman, nice work with the mouse! You are woman – and now we’ve heard you roar!

Seriously Kelly, I wish you and the kids a very joyous Christmas.

Thanks for never failing to give me a chuckle/good cry/reason to think.

I was lying in bed early this morning thinking that I should send you a Merry Christmas email (no lie) and then you posted and saved my lazy ass from having to actually type an email–and you’d only be getting an email because I ran out of steam with the actual Christmas card.

And then I started reading your post and OH MY GOD the mouse story just about killed me! With your bare/gloved/bagged hands?!!??

And then that made me remember several years ago when we lived in an old house in New Jersey that had radiator heat and there was a hole cut in the floor for the pipes to come through and this was where the mice would come through…and I remembered being on the phone with my brother and watching the little bugger scurry across the dining room…and after I ran through a couple of mouse traps I had to go to Target on Christmas Eve to get more mouse traps. Because we had that many mice. But these were the cool kinds of traps that were covered so all you’d see on the way to the garbage can was a little tail.

Wow, I’m just worn out from all that typing and running-on sentence wise.

I do wish you a very Merry Christmas, Kelly! And go get the covered mouse traps before you have a nightmare involving you, Mickey and some gloves.

My wrapping skillz bite serious ass. I’m lazy enough to pawn most of them off on my kids One year, I actually made my daughter wrap her own gift. MOM FAIL.

I like your style girly, even when you eat candle wax instead of frosting. Glad I started following again and sorry I missed so much.

I feel so old and lame having to google Ross the Intern just to understand where you’re coming from. But I like a blogger that stretches me. You are the bomb for what you did to that mouse! OMG. I shudder to think about it. I jump out of my skin when I go in the garage and hear snow fall off the car, thinking it might be a critter instead. I’m with you on the wrapping skilz. Is it possible to regress in that area? I totally have.

Have a wonderful Christmas, and get some rest!
