About that mailbox . . .
I’ve never been a big fan of my mailbox. However, it served its purpose till last night. We woke up this morning to our mailbox laying on the ground. Since a lot of my product reviews are sent by the mail, this is a very bad, bad thing. Second problem, it snowed here last night, so the ground is frozen. We think it was hit by the snow plow in the middle of the night (it was still there at 11 pm). The beam that actually holds the mailbox is split. We had to do a horrible fix job in about 20 degree weather today. Bill took some industrial clamps and zip ties and that is the only thing that is holding the beam together. The beam also leans forward pretty bad, so we had to take stakes and pound them into the ground around the base. This looks like the worst white trash mailbox I’ve ever seen, and there is no way to fix this until the ground thaws out. I am hoping to get some pictures of my sorry looking mailbox tomorrow. If anyone has any ideas of how to get new a mailbox into the frozen ground, I am all ears.
What’s your favorite gameshow?
For me, this is an easy question. I am a Jeopardy fan especially when it is teen week (which is about the only time I know a good number of answers). For me, I choose Jeopardy for several reason. First, it makes you use your brain. On that show, being smart is a good thing. You don’t see people having to do stupid stunts to be able to make money. I also have a family connection to it. As a kid, we actually played this as a family. My mom would keep score, and we would see who did the best every day. It’s those kinds of memories that make me love the show even more. My kids are too little to watch Jeopardy, but I hope when they get older that I can play against them too.
Now, I am a Press Your Luck fan too. Who can resist the Whammy guys?
What’s your favorite game show and why?
Football Sunday
Bill has been gone to the Chicago Bears game all day. The final score was 48-41, so needless to say, it really was a fun, interesting, nailbiting game. He’s on his way home right now ( I just called him), and they are still stuck in traffic! Right now, I am watching the Green Bay Packers while I am waiting. Being from Green Bay, I love when I am able to watch both games! Trust me, a Packer fan living in Chicago gets a lot of flack. Right now, (crossing my fingers and hoping I don’t jinx them), the Packers are winning 27 – 7 against the Indianapolis, and they are looking pretty good. Yes, even when the hubby isn’t home I watch football.
Ohhh while I was writing this, Packers intercepted and the score is 34 – 7. Wooohooooo! Go Pack Go!
