Weekly Words Challenge 42!

The words for this week were Raw and Finished.

How did you interpret them?

Beach Rednecks In The Raw


Now It's Finished



On The Note:

Dear Cleaning Lady,
I wish I knew your name. Please give this small gift to your daughter. Although she apparently caused some mischief in my coworker's office, she only left me cute little notes. The mystery of those notes kept me entertained for days. They added a temporary amusement to what is normally a rather boring day. I'm sure you can relate. So thank her for me, and thank you too for all that you do.


It's a package of Tinkerbell sticky notes I found at the mall yesterday for $2.99! Tell me that's not kismet. The package was gone when I came in this morning.

A purple bag full of Tink stickers? Dang, that's sweet.
Listen, btw, the reason this header works so well, as I am sure Hoop would agree, is that you have VERY expressive eyes. Full of mystery and mischief, perhaps?
My pics are up!

I almost thought it was my son but he doesn't have that much meat on his bones.

OK, I know it sounds sappy, but the way you handled the cleaning "crew" really touched me! It's those damn random acts of kindness that can make such a big difference in one's life!

Awww, Tink you're gonna be a great mommy someday. That is so sweet that you left the girl a gift. And you know that just made her mom's day!

This is a story that little girl will be telling all her life, how she met a friend she doesn't know.

Hey! maybe she should start a blog. :)

Holy crap, I KNOW that Kidney!

That was really sweet of you to write a nice note to the mom. Hopefully she gave the stickers to the kid and didn't keep them for herself. Yep, that is why I don't parent anything.

That was so incredibly sweet of you, Tink. Your whole cleaning lady story has the feel of fairies to it--a little mischief, little gifts...I love it.

I wonder how many beers it takes before wearing boots with your swimsuit seems like an awesome idea? LOL

Well, I am so glad you did that! What fun for the little girl, also. She will feel like she has an important friend and very special for it.
You are very thoughtful!

I'm raising my fist and saying, "One of these days." Looks like so much fun.

Yes, and so nice of you to give the post-its. Fun being randomly kind.

As a mom, I can tell you that your note most surely warmed the cleaning lady's heart. And as a kid in adult's clothing, the stickers are super cool!

You're such a sweet little saint.
