Harley Davidson Jackets Look Good on everyone.. Right?

I’m not sure what to call this blog post.. The photos are blurry and out of focus. But they are classic to what my family is. I laugh looking at them. Here’s the background:

I bought a pretty cute Harley Davidson Jacket at a auction. I didn’t buy it for #2. I bought it for #4… when he was a baby.. I forgot about it, found it in the back of the closet, and got it out for #5 to wear. #5 wouldn’t wear it, so #2 tried it on. He was laughing so hard and moving so fast the photos are blurry and out of focus.

Don’t you like how it belts around him?

Showing his muscles..

#2’s best side?

The moral of this tale? Don’t tell #2 he can’t do something..

Oh.. and he even though this kid eats me out of house and home.. he needs to eat a sandwich!

(see definition of eat a sandwich)

Since #5 won’t wear the jacket, I guess I will be putting it up on eBay.

A watched Freight Truck Never Comes.

If any of my readers are truck drivers.. or work in the trucking industry.. could you tell me why I have such a hard time getting my freight moved from point A to my house?

I ordered a simple pallet of stuff.. and it sat on a dock from Tuesday until Friday.. and it was only when I called and asked where it was.. they went “Hey, you are right! We do have a pallet just sitting here.” They then promised me it would be here Monday, and well you guessed it.. it wasn’t.

It arrived today, (when I wasn’t there), so the Shipping Manager (aka #1) and #2 unloaded the freight, and took these fabulous photos for you. 🙂

Since I have the driveway from hell.. (I believe done on purpose so The Man can live a solitary life)

Here’s the truck sitting on the road.

#1 drove this beauty.. down to meet the Roadway guy.

We call this “the big white truck” (for obvious reasons). It used to be an old mail truck..

Now it’s an old eBay truck.

Here’s the driver and #2 unloading the truck.

#2 moves the junk to the end of the trailer and #1 loads it into “the big white truck”.

Since it was only 1 pallet it took like 10 minutes..

Bye Roadway Guy!.. Until next time 🙂

Now to get it photographed, written up, inventoried, and put on eBay!

#1 Turns 24.. and She Saved a Turtle

I took child #1 out for her birthday.  Our first stop Chick-fil-a for a chicken biscuit and then to Starbucks for an iced coffee with “THIS MUCH MILK”.  (hold your hand up and use your index and thumb to show about 2″).  These things make #1 really happy.

We shopped for a while, tried on lots of clothes… So much so that even I was tired of seeing “if those pants fit”.

Then we headed to Pei Wei.  Have you ever eaten at Pei Wei? It’s awesome and I’ll be reveiwing it soon.. at www.asktheebayqueen.com/ebay_queen_reviews

#1 and her most Fabulous Aunt

After Lunch we shopped some more, and then headed home.  We were almost to the low water bridge… when we spotted a turtle in the middle of the road.

I warned her that it would potty on her if she picked it up.. and true to turtle form.. it did.. but I didn’t get a photo of that. 🙁

He started to peek out.. but never opened up..

#1 puts the turtle safely on the other side of the road.
