Hmph….
I should probably call this post rambling all the way to nowhere.
Because for one, it is random rambling and for two, well, I’ll be rambling randomly.
1. When left to my own devices with the iPhone, the laptop, the iTunes and my iPod, there is a pretty good chance that I will frig something up all of the Casting Crowns songs will somehow get deleted from my iTunes library and iPhone and that somehow all but 32 songs will somehow be removed from my iPhone.
That whole iScenerio left me shaking my head, wondering how in the heck I manage to keep two small children alive.
2. Thick, green snot that gets greener and thicker over the course of a weekend does indeed warrant a trip to the Pediatrician’s office for a probable sinus infection.
Your welcome.
3. I learned that even though I am thankful for secondary medical insurance, it is a pain in the patootie because most of the Doctors that we do business with will only bill one insurance. Luckily, I don’t mind administrative-type business. My OCD rocks the stack of EOBs and the required forms.
4. When you arrive home after a two-week vacation to discover that your hose nozzle is missing, that probably means that someone stole it. (I hope the sorry sap squirts himself in the face with it!)
5. Hose nozzles on the shelf at Sears range in price from $2.99 – $24.99. I can honestly say I had no idea how much a hose nozzle was until I went to the mall this evening. I saw no reason to spend a lot of money on something that will probably be stolen again. A hose nozzle? Seriously?
6. The new honey-barbecue chicken wings at Wendys are delicious, however, I think they are playing fast and loose with the whole wing thing. I think they are simply chicken nuggets lightly coated with some fabulous sauce. I have not tried the Asain or the Bold buffalo because I am loyal. If I find something that I like, I stick with it.
7. The Wendy’s kid’s meals audiobook is the best thing since sliced bread. For some reason, my boys enjoy listening to that monotone woman reading a book about the ancient olympics, or dingos (which Stevie informs me are wild, Australian dogs.)
And, who am I to question peace in the vehicle.
8. The new Tagalong blizzard at Dairy Queen is also delicious. Or so I hear.
I guess its obvious that my kitchen has not seen much action this week.
9. If you are trying to decide on a color for vinyl siding for your home, and you are indecisive, it is probably best to visit the siding store to get a realistic idea of what your house will look like. None of the little square samples look the same as they would if they were hanging on the side of your house. Motivation to the tune of saving $575. will make your decision much easier.
10. There is not a copy of Jeremy Camp’s CD – “Speaking Louder Than Before” on a store shelf within a 30-mile radius of my house.
11. I’ve said it before and I’ll probably say it again, the magic eraser is the most useful cleaning product on the market.
12. Big Brother 11 is the best thing that’s happened to my TiVo all summer.
I think that’s it!
I told you it would be random.
Anyway, thanks for stopping by! Head on over to Musings of a Housewife, for more What I Learned This Week posts.

I just can’t get into Big Brother this season…or last season. Maybe I am past my Big Brother kick…I miss it.
We lost a sprinkler over 4th of July…a $3 sprinkler, but with by my husbands reaction you would think it was his truck. hahahaha
Tagalong Blizzards are my new best friends.

Thanks for the mention of using two insurance companies. I’ve always wondered how that will work if hubby gets covered, plus I have my coverage. Maybe it’s not worth it? I don’t think I’m as good with the details as it sounds like you are.
FYI – the Asian & Bold Buffalo “wings” at Wendy’s are also delicious!!
My WILTW posts are always random too – guess I still have a lot to learn
I need a kitchen free day or two too. The tagalong blizzard sounds divine.

I LOVE the Magic Eraser. I couldn’t clean my house without it.
Randomness is awesome! And yes, the Magic Eraser is indeed magic.

Hose nozzles can cost that much? I had no idea.
I love the Magic Eraser. It has saved the paint on several things in my house.
