Alright, so here is one of those stories that you hope is NOT about your daughter, but unfortunately it is! My daughter Anna and her friend Gretchen were outside playing volleyball when they had this brainy idea of putting GORILLA glue all over their hands!! Yes, i really meant that, and no, i would not have thought that it would be the thing that they would think of. You know, remember elmers glue and peeling it off after it dried? Well, anyway there was a bottle of it in the garage by where they were standing and they thought they would be funny and put it all over the front and the back of their hands and then take it off. What is truly amazing about this is that not ONE of them but BOTH of them thought this was cool to do. Uh, things that make you go hmmmmm…..! I was downstairs making this bead on this post and they came down, “uh, mom, we put gorilla glue on our hands and it will not come off”! You know the look i got on my face obviously, because it is the same look that most people in the world would get, right? Now, first let me say that i really never have issues with Anna and her brain, well at least until now. She has always had pretty good common sense but I am very concerned at this point, lol!! You know, who does that? And, do they do it with a glue that has the name Gorilla in it? Or, do they check the back of the bottle for maybe a reason not to put it all over their hands? So, that is THREE STRIKES right there. I mean, i would never think to do that even when i was young and stupid (opposed to how bright i am now), but if i did the bottle would have to read elmers or Lame glue or something, not a strong A@# animal! So, I had to put acetone, goo gone all over their hands while they picked and picked to get it off. It took around 4 hours or so, what a great use of their time!! Okey Dokey, hopefully this takes the cake on stupidity for the future and Anna thinks from now on……?????? Teenagers that get A’s in school and seem to have a great amount of sense and maturity can fool you at ANY time just to see whether you are listening or not, ugh!!!
The first is gretchen with the goo gone, and anna NOT letting me capture this wonderfully proud mom moment!!!

Volleyball this weekend was long and tedious. We played 8 games in two days and ended up in 4th out of 8 in their bracket. Oh well, great exercise for her, thankfully the glue was gone!
Here is a bead, now back to beads today on the torch!!!!
