The clothes were grandparents gifts to the granddaughter. They are NOT shoppers. I shopped for the little girl today, though, too. She's 5ish and girly. Like my nieces. I never knew waht to get them. But I found this clear backpack, very girly fashion, that is full of art things that her mother will probably hate me for. crayons, paints, hundreds of beads. I think it'll go pretty good. We asked about bbguns, and she had already gotten each of the boys one. Yeah! So I'll stick with the pokemon movie and boardgame I got. It'll be a hard Christmas, but Joe's face when he sees the bbgun will be a sight to see. He talks to frogs, little Joe, does. We sat on the front porch where they were all over, including on the windows and he would go catch one and bring it to show me. "Aren't they the cutest things? Look at those little legs." He thinks they are one of God's greatest creatures. "Frogs like me because I like them." Fasinating child.

You clowns ought to be forced to ride the Teacups for writing all this queasy stuff. Yuch. We had the Mail Bomb Talk this week. If you've tried mailing a package weighing over two pounds you may have encountered our Bomb Rules. You have to hand the package over the counter to our clerks, unless you use a postage meter, you need to have a valid return address, blah blah blah. I had thought it was just a lot of bureaucratic nonsense left over from the stellar career of the Unabomber, but our Station Manager told us that the Postal Service has intercepted four bombs in this year alone. Spooky. I hate when packages tick.
