pre-big move madness!!!!!!!!

Aug 27, 2007 06:15

Yes, it's official.... MOVING A FAMILY SUCKS! My kids are lazy little bungholes ..aka typical preteens. To them, boxing up their room is SOOOOOOO HARD!  I have to laugh.
I'm living in a cardboard kingdom for the next couple days, making everything quite interesting here.  I'll be completely out by Friday though, so I'm looking forward to the weeks end.  My Labor Day weekend will be filled with glorious unpacking and organizing!
School starts for the kids and I next week Tuesday, so there's a big push to get the bedrooms and office space into order first.
All I can say to sum this up is LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL!

lol

Just in case you wondered why WD40 is good stuff.....WD-40 Or Water
Displacement #40 as it is known. The product began from a search for
a rust preventative solvent and de greaser to protect missile parts.
WD-40 was created in 1953 by three technicians at the San Diego Rocket
Chemical Company. Its name comes from the project that was to find a
"water displacement" compound. They were successful with the fortieth
formulation, thus WD-40. The Corvair Company bought it in bulk to
protect their atlas missile parts. The workers were so pleased with the
product, they began smuggling (also known as "shrinkage" or "stealing")
it out to use at home. The executives decided there might be a consumer
market for it and put it in aerosol cans. The rest, as they say, is
history. There are about
2.5 million gallons of the stuff manufactured each year. It gets its
distinctive smell from a fragrance that is added t o the brew. Ken East
(one of the original founders) says there is nothing in WD-40 that
would hurt you. When you read the "shower door" part, try it. It's
the first thing that has ever cleaned that spotty shower door. If yours
is plastic, it works just as well as glass. It's a miracle! Then try it
on your stovetop...Voila! It's now shinier than it's ever been. You'll
be amazed.
