My natural tendency is to horde all secret discoveries and fabulous bits of info to myself, I will tell you this. It’s because I am the oldest child and never REALLY came to accept the fact that I had to share. But, I am sharing today. We’ll call it “share day” (like at DeeDee’s preschool) here at the Battle Station.

First. You all wanted to know where I got the fabulous silhouette pendant for my sister. Fine. If you MUST know. I got it at Lucky Me Beads. Okay?

I love discovering new, awesome blogs to stalk. Betina’s at B-Happy is no exception. Go, become addicted, use me for my linkage.

Speaking of awesome blogs. Jess, one of my favorite writers, has written an insightful and honest post called “What it’s like to be fat.” She’s a master of words, I’m telling you.

In other news. I have found the purpose of life. THIS is it, this is why we are all here on earth. Don’t say I never gave you anything……

This guy has found his own purpose in life. Mike found this and thought it was the coolest thing ever and is now trying to communicate with me SOLELY using daft hands. Which is, needless to say, really awesome. I told him all he needs to write on each finger is “It’s” “My” “Fault” and we’re good to go. But, without further ado, I present to you daft hands: If you’ve ever heard the Kanya West song “Stronger”, this is the old school Techno song in the background.

And I know that after watching that, you’ll now want to save the planet. Well, let me help you do that Internets. Use Gdiapers and feel better about not throwing away 500 diapers a day that will take 500 years each to biodegrade.

There’s my Friday Linky Love for ya’ll. I hope you enjoyed share day here at the Battle Station. Come again now, ya hear?

   Hey just wanted to say hi…love your blog…I’m from Boise too! Happy to see that someone can drive a minivan and still be cool…I fear I’ve been driving mine too long. Every ounce of coolness I ever had (which wasn’t much to begin with) pretty much disappeared when a well meaning family member affixed those little family stickers to the back of my van when I was still in the hospital after having my 4th kiddo…WITHOUT EVEN ASKING! Ugh. Yeah…way past cool here!

   Thanks for the link, and for the very sweet comment on the post. I was seriously touched by what you said, and I really, really like you too. And now I’m off to check out that silhouette place.

   Too Cool! Let us know how it goes with Mike. I wish my husband would try it - think of all the unnecessary words we could be eliminating. And your” It’s my fault” is genius.
