The funniest thing happened today. My mother-in-law sent us a package. My husband was on the phone with her while I opened it up, and I looked in the plastic bag that was on top. I said, "Um...it's a dead bird." My husband said, "What? She says it's something knitted."
It seems the Hitler cat killed a bird, and they put it in a bag and out in the garage to dispose of. And somehow that bag got grabbed when she went to put bags in the package for padding. It was the funniest thing ever. I can now say my mother-in-law mailed me a dead animal. I think that is a riot. My new favorite story.
The unfunniest thing also happened today. My husband's deployment got moved forward. He leaves soon now.

I wish I could fix it.
And I don't know how to knit. That peach premie was the f*ing cutest thing ever, EVER!! I want to learn how to do stained glass, but I doubt that I have the time or the patience.... It could be fairly lucrative, I suppose.
Do you ever sell your stuff versus give it away? Could I 'order' something from you and pay for it??? Please?
And if I haven't told you lately, I *heart* you! I do. I love you and Cali and Erin. (No, I am NOT drinking! Well, maybe a little.) No, no I am not drinking!!! You guys are just too kewl.!.

Posted by: prophet at May 2, 2008 01:22 PMIm not sure what I would have done with a package and a dead animal....it is quite the story....
I'm sorry about the deployment date.....but once it begins, it will also begin the start of being able to put days behind you and closer to it being over....but it still sucks.
