Public Service Announcement

Thank you for your feedback on my rock post! I do believe I have worked up the courage to speak with the nearest and nicest bulldozer-man as soon as one passes my house tomorrow. Which, come to think of it, will probably occur before my eyes even open tomorrow morning. So I will ask the nearest and nicest bulldozer-man who I see after I am up and at 'em tomorrow morning. :)

And we have decided to plunk that large boulder in the backyard...assuming all works out as planned. I think it will be too big for the front yard and the kids are itching to climb on it. The backyard will be a better place for a big climbing rock, so we'll plunk her there. Our next-door neighbors have one in their backyard and they jokingly call it "The Thinking Rock." That's where they send their children "to think." So if on a trying day, I tell you that the kids are out back doing some "thinking"...you'll know where they are. :)





Further, I wanted to give you the cap to my mailbox saga. Initially in the mailbox search, I was opposed to the Great American Plastic Mailbox. But then we found out that our box had to be installed across the street. In fact, all of the mailboxes that were on our side of the street had to be moved to the other side. Since our neighbors across the street had just found out that there would be a few mailboxes lining their property, Scott offered to buy a matching mailbox to theirs. They are happy with that, it was cheap, and I have to say I'm happy with it, too! Plus, there aren't a bunch of mailboxes on my side of the street, so I don't mind walking across to get my mail. Actually, Lily gets the mail for me most days. :)

Thanks for your input!
