Well, how the Hello Kitty are you doing today?
Haha! Kristina Armstrong has coined the new phrase and now everyone is using it. I LOVE IT. And all of you do, too! Hadar reminded me that I also loved Vin Scully’s catchphrase, “HOLY FERTILIZER!” And I did. But I forgot about it until now. So now I’ll have two different phrases to throw out when people are bothering me. Or circumstances are bothering me. Or if I stub my toe.
Remember way back a long time ago like last year when I told you about the music box and how I use it for classroom management regarding noise level? No? Well, I did. You can read all about it {HERE}.
Anyways, my music box was about 12 years old. Give or take.
And it was falling apart. And Pooh wasn’t wearing pants which was embarrassing for everyone involved except, possibly, maybe Mother Bear who is a downright floozy so she doesn’t count.
Well, I ordered a new music box. I didn’t get it from Walmart like I did with the Winnie the Pooh music box. I looked online and searched and searched for the perfect one. I spent more than I did on the Winnie the Pooh music box. With shipping, I spent $40. People, that’s not bad, especially if it’s going to last me for another 12 years. Plus, all parts came fully clothed.
HERE IT IS!!!!!
Oh my gosh, you just crack me up!! I am so tired from setting up my classroom, getting ready for back to school night & orientation & open house & the first week of school (everything is times two since I have 2 half day kdg. classes)……I can barely breath! But your post just made me laugh and gave me a boost of energy! :0) Those are both great phrases and I intend to use them as soon as possible.
Thanks!!

PS I'm going up to my daughter's room to see if she has a jewelry box I can "repurpose". It's OK, she's away at college and won't notice! ;0)
Why doesn't Piglet have any friends? Because he plays with Pooh. {Our Jungle Cruise tour guide at Disney World gets credit for that one}

Love the new box ! You inspired me today….. I am still prepping my class and I am making a little stage for our rock star class. I thought of sewing or glue gunning the curtains and I thought I can staple, just like Teenyn!!! They turned out perfect too ๐
I like that music box. I use a lap harp I found in an old attic I helped clean out. It hurts my fingers…perhaps that box? I added you to my post today. http://1stinmaine.blogspot.com/2013/08/classroom-tour.html Didn't you say you would blog about Fun Friday again? Waiting…

Pantless, Piglet holding, Pooh! hahahaha… Even when I'm BEYOND tired you crack me up!
LOVE that music box! I have a bus- that was a Little People bus that plays "Wheels on the Bus" when I touch a button. But last year it just played randomly whenever it felt like- which was unnerving to say the least. I changed the batteries and it is better- but still every so often it will just play a few notes. OHHHHHH. dear. I got it from a garage sale. Surprise. No wonder. It is possessed- no big deal- they forget to mention that part. The kids do quiet down, though, because we are all scared.

Why in the Hello Kitty didn't you tell us about this a long time ago?? ๐ Genius! Ordered! Those kids will get music boxed on Tuesday!
Yes, at least Pooh has Piglet… SO here are some other fun not swear words: Grasshole and Biscuit. Thought you really can't say them around the kids anyway. Holy Fertilizer cracks me up!
poor pooh!
and I'm totally loving the music box idea ๐
