Suomynona-

I forget you live way over there, I was jealous that you got to sleep during the day until i realized it wasn't "day" there. hehehe. I abhor glitter, and I plan to shake the teacher silly for the latest creation- A glittered pencil - you cannot write without getting it everywhere! argh.

I can't believe you posted 2 posts while I was sleeping!! Bonus! I already read your latest post...then idly scrolling down the page, I notice yet another post I haven't seen yet! I'm glad my children are now on 8 weeks holidays....we will thus be spared the onslaught my 7 yr old would usually be bringing home in the next week or so. Our Christmas tree is festooned with glitter stars, glitter pine cones, glitter angels, glitter wreaths..the list goes on......all of these items hearken back to my first child's days of kindergarten and the following years up to the present, when some years I would have the artistic efforts of 3 children to throw in the bin....er...I mean...in the decorations box! Luckily I pulled Halle out early this year as with 3 brothers home on holidays, I felt it would be unfair for her to trek off to school for another 2 weeks! I was also hoping to avoid any more glittery treats.

LOL ISN...

OK - here is the story. My Mom's boss is shaving his head to raise money for the Kids Cancer Care Foundation. Now she has never had a boss who would do something like that - he's going to do it on the college campus in front of a whole bunch of students. So she wants to make him a badge or button or something that says "HERO" on it. She want's to spell it out in Glitter... so she, of course, calls me - the ultimate authority on all things glitter.

Don't make me publicly admit that my life is pathetic and this is the best thing going right now.

My Mom is making something for her boss.. (long story) and needed glitter - guess who she called for her supply... yup the old glittery homestead. That glow on my skin that everyone comments on is actually glitter... LOL!
