Have I Mentioned that I Love our New Pencil Sharpener?

I can't think of any other time that I've bought something that I could see myself enthusiastically selling door to door.  Something tells me that it wouldn't be a terribly profitable venture.  I guess not every home needs a serious pencil sharpener.  Ours didn't in the past.

So what else is going on...

We had another surprise in the last month (besides my VBS promotion) - our house is no longer underwater.  It is technically at the surface - not really above water yet.  Being on this side of the housing bubble is interesting.  Since we were never in a situation that required we sell our house, we really were able to sit back, let the market run its course and enjoy the steady drop in property taxes.  I guess that will change now!

Natalie is potty training in earnest I believe!  She had some accidents today and some successes.  The way she talks about it cracks me up!  She comes running and shouting, "The pee pee is coming!  The pee pee is coming!"
