That’s it. I opened my refridgerator to get a much needed caffeine-loaded soda, zzzzz…..
What? Huh? Oh, sorry, dozed there for a second. Anyway, my mom gives the kids these tiny little flashlights, and one of them was in my fridge. Maybe it was there, to, ummm…sorry, not even a clever little pun is coming to mind.
Sleep deprived. Baby still had a fever last night. He was in bed with us from about 1 am til morning. He couldn’t get good and comfy until his big head (it’s a family trait) was firmly planted on Baldman‘s chest, and his little piggies were niggling into my back. Which, as you know, means no good sleep for us.
But at least his fever is down.
Is it one of those glow-light things that will only work if they stay cold? I remember my freezer growing up was half full of those things, because my brothers and I were always afraid to throw them out. We may want a neon party someday…
Hey, I guess that answers the question on if the light goes out when you close the door. As long as the batteries work, light stays on.
Hey, is it my feed burner that isn’t working or yours? I haven’t been notified that you’ve posted in oh so long.
I know of some little flashlights…..they are very little. they velcro around your finger. they have a little strobe on them too…a little tiny switch makes the strobe go or you can just have it the regular way. the lights are blue…not white like a regular flashlight.
find them at your local walmart…..near the registers…the racks of odds and ends that you always see…..opposite the candy. it’s a fun thing for kids. if you don’t have them….get them and go for a drive one evening…..lots of fun in a dark van!!!!
Wow Lisa, sounds like you are hoot to party with!
Actually, I have a little red, white, and blue flashing ball I put on my dog when she’s out in the yard. When one the houses in the backyard got new owners I think it freaked them out when they saw flashing police lights on the other side of their fence.
Reminds me, need to get a new one tonight. Can’t see where the dog is when it gets dark like it’s been lately.
Kerri, Mom gives your kids little flashlights? Why? Rantz, only I party with my wife!. Heehee
Doug,
I don’t know what kind of partying you do with your wife and why it includes flashlights and vans, but… Maybe I do want to know. Now I’m all curious and stuff.
Rantz: 1) No, no chilling required for these flashlights. I think someone was going to get their juice out and just put the flashlight down. Never heard of the chilly lights. 2) Don’t know what’s up, if it’s your feedreader or mine. Don’t know how I’d figure that out. 3) Your poor dog. 4) Please stop encouraging my brother.
Lisa: I’ve never noticed those. I’ll have to watch for them. I think the kids would get a kick out of ‘em!
Doug: Why does she give them flashlights? The same reason she gives them all kinds of little weird things, I guess. Cuz she can. And keep your partying creepiness to yourself. Or get your own blog.
Kerri, This is fun because I don’t know any of your siblings and so I get to tease and joke with your whole family all at once. I guess I should watch myself as I think your mom reads this too. I would hate for her to start asking too many questions about your brother’s creepiness. Although I do want to point out it was not he, or I, who started that thread.
Oh, and the chilly lights. Used to get them at Kings Island or at the faire or places like that. I think they were basicly glowstick necklaces. I’m sure you had them, even though you are MUCH younger than I.
Our kids are always hiding stuff in the fridge. They love the element of surprise finding it brings to life.
The fever thing is horrible, isn’t it? I am glad to hear little guy is on the mend.
Rantz: Ah…the Halloween necklaces and such? I get it. Yes, I’m so much younger, you geezer.
Kate: As long as I never find frogs or snakes or anything like that in the fridge, I think I can handle it. Yes, the fever stuff stinks. Sad that I’m getting used to it, though! But he’s doing much better now, just an ear infection. With 3 kids, it seems there is never a time that someone doesn’t have something! Thanks for the nice thoughts.
