Eye of Bat....

There will be a $300 dollar charge for this spell. Non-refundable. No guarantee of success. Your request has also been copied to the Treasury. I refer you to compliance note 33§7. Para 58. Counting untagged sheep.

Pikey...blast those sheep that lose their tags! I tage every one at birth and the ones that are not for meet, but breeding stock and stay here or are sold, get 2 tags. But still, some lose those blasted tags. Every time I handle them I check and retag if they have lost some. Right now I have one that lambed and she somehow lost both of her tags. Now I have to wait untilt he other 15 in the group that are lambing have all lambed to know who the heck she is. Meanwhile, she'll get another 2 tags. Geesh! Do you think they'll give me a break? lol

Yeah, H & R Block here charges, I think, around $45 to do a simple income tax return for a working individual. That would only take me 15 mins to do. It is not the math that I need help with. It is the inventory, that a consultant can't do for me. I've been getting behind, so I have to go through my computer records to itemize every blasted one! *sigh*

Yuk comes shortly before "why" if I recall correctly. A little subterfuge is needed. Ask her what she wants. Give her what you were going to give anyway and tell her that it is what she wanted! Alternatively: Phone babysitter and book for this evening. Call hubby. Tell him that you will be sitting in restaurant X at exactly 7pm and you will expect him to be there too!

Well in our case 'why' came before 'yuk', and 'yuk' came just after 'boring'!!! And I'm sure there are still lots of other good words to look forward to... I like the idea of subterfuge. I might have to try out your first suggestion. I'd love to try the second one as well (after this crappy day I'm having..) but we don't have a babysitter unfortunately. Need to find one fast... And my husband would love to get that kind of order!

Ah, I just noticed that I'm allowed to say crappy. That's progress. Although it's probably because it's british and not used in the US much(?) Or maybe just considered a really mild word. Sorry to go OT, just an observation!

Sounds good to me.

Maybe a spell spelling spell would spell spelling success.

It's 2.50pm here Hatley and starting to get dark!!

forgot the time difference, now I am fully awake and it looks foggy out there, lol. well another day on dear old mylot.oh its 8:45 in the morning here on Monday Feb.1 my roomie went back to bed.darn. oh well I am up now for the day,hip hip hurray. gotta rhyme

hi book while we are doing spells how about one to make me sixty pounds slimmer? oh I would love that one.

My spell is whatever you wish. Personally I'd like to have the energy of a 10 year old, the looks of an attractive 50 year old, the weight of almost anyone slimmer then me, the education of the wisest man, the money of a shrewd investor and the best friends possible. Oh, I have the last one already!

Hi Hatley, I discovered today a spell to make everyone slimmer while answering a post about traveling. They were talking about airlines charging more to overweight passengers. I had the bright idea that the airlines could sell (for a reasonable amount) airplane food to the prospective clients. They would have another way of earning and the happy passengers to be would lose weight very easily. I´m so old the I remember when airplane food was good. Not anymore

Do you mean never empty Sandra? LOL. I hope that they all get flat tyres ten miles away leaving some oranges for you.

Well spotted, Pikey - of course I mean never empty. Like the idea about the flat tyres.

Hello, Leif. Of course I meant 'never.' I'll just have to go and buy some oranges, that's all. They only cost 2 euros for 5 kilos, but you know what they say - forbidden fruit tastes sweeter.

Right, real loves doesn't fade..only superficial loves fade fast..people who are together on looks alone..

I am a Big woman and I have to tell you that if a man loves you he will love you if you are a size 4 or a size 24 it does not matter what matters in what is inside your heart and soul. Beauty fades but love does not

Oh yes. Abracadabra......

Ah, thank you, that seems to have worked...........or was it me? ;)

Well then he can just resort to his bat radar! LOL

Hope that he doesn't sneeze or the lights will go out Sparky!

S'easy. Go to church. Listen to a long dull sermon. Come home, make BIG lunch. Beat husband and children. Eat lunch. Do all the washing up single handed. Make supper. Wash up again. Try to watch TV but annoying relative/fiend calls and you can't get rid. Have row with someone. Head for bed to discover that the bed is stripped and not yet made up. Make bed. Go to bathroom - someone's beaten you there. Eventually climb into bed. Still want Sunday?

I want Sunday MY WAY (commences to kick and scream)...

The Boss is watching Neighbours so I've come into the dining room to be away from all the excitement! XXXX

I wish that I had more energy too. They told me to exercise more. But that tires me out!

I hope that your back improves and that your mother finds her dialysis hugely beneficial. You are right. My simple spells won't make anyone better, but knowing that we have the support of this community is a miracle in its own right.

I truly believe that the support of generous people help more than one would think. Thanks p1kef1sh

Yep, I know I am..but it seems I try to be before anyone else can..My husband is pretty hard on me too sometimes..He says he worries about my health and knows the weight isn't healthy for me..so says doc..

I agree. Where is the sun?

You will learn Grasshopper......

The old ones are the best. I can't wait for the warmer weather either.

Now that would be interesting. To levitate must be kind of fun.
