Not much really going on today. I got all the VBS stuff packed up and put away yesterday. Dennis was sO relieved to have the kitchen table back! Now he can spread out his newspaper again! Lol! We had a minor catastrophe yesterday too... Dennis had my truck pulled up in the driveway, and Krysti went out to move her car so she could vacuum it out... and she backed it into my truck! I don't know WHAT she was thinking. She had been standing out there talking to Dennis - she KNEW the truck was there... I have to call the insurance company today -- she really did a number on her rear end! The Expedition is FINE! (and even if it weren't we wouldn't fix it...) But her poor little car... OUCH! She cried. I've come to the conclusion that when you have 8 vehicles in a family... okay I guess I shouldn't count Amanda's or Mathew's anymore - 6 vehicles... that sOMething is always going to be happening! Does this sound about right to y'all? Thankfully her car still has full coverage!
Okay... I've

Oyee, poor Kristy, we only have two cars but I managed to drive into the wall besides the garage door while talking with my neighbor ! Fortunately not with the new one. I think to make all plans come true in things before you die, you have to make sure to become 100 ! but Europe is not that far from Washington !

Well, at least Amanda kept it in the family. Strangers can get quite upset at these things.
Punny Monday is up and so far all the guess are wild and weird!

Oh no....poor Krysti! Ugh! Yeah we have car things happening all the time and we only have four of them.
I loved this meme. I think I'll mark it to be done as soon as I can.
I am trying to catch up with all the blogging I missed while I was gone.
Hugs,
Susan

You did great on the meme. I don't know if I could have come up with 8 answers for each one.
I'm so sorry about the car!! As someone else said -- at least it wasn't with a stranger -- that brings a whole 'nother set of complications. You're right, with that many cars and drivers, something is bound to happen sooner or later. Glad it wasn't worse, though, and that there are no bodily injuries.

I thought you got a new car?!? I scrape the side view mirror on the edge of the garage from time to time.

I enjoyed the meme. You didn't even cheat like I did. On mine I changed the movie list to 8 movies I have seen more than once instead of eight times.
When it comes to housework just remembered a cluttered house indicates a busy life.

I am sorry about the car. In our old house up North I did a lot of running into the sides of the door.
The old movies I also watched a number of times.
