Maybe I should move this to Tuesday as my Thursdays seem to be rather busy!!.....course if I did then the Tuesdays would suddenly fill right up...welcome to my world.
After dropping the boys at school Miss Priss and I spent a few hours at Walmart. Me carrying her the whole time because the girl just wouldn't sit up in the buggy. She's not sitting yet and I guess she got tired of holding herself up. Stinker gets HEAVY!!
The good news is that all of my Christmas shopping is now finished!! Praise God and pass the potatoes. I also made a fair start on the gifts that I make to give every year last night so I'm finally ready to turn on the rock station that started their annual playlist of only Christmas Carols last week. whew, what a sentence! Sorry folks, I'm too tired to edit.
So, there's my chit chat, On With The Show.

Good Evening Mighty Mom,
I just woke up and got me a snack. I am trying to catch up with everyone that I didn't earlier in the day. Hmmmm, I think I mite give this game a try if ya don't mind. I hope they don't have to be in this particular order. Frisson - Redneck word for Freezing - It has been Frisson cold here this week.
Factotum - Umm, Redneck word for Fat Tummy - You shure do have a factotum there. LOL, I have absolutely no clue as what they really mean. I like Redneck language, could you tell? LOL. Well, I gave it a try. Who knows, maybe I will start playing it. Take care my friend and God Bless You.
Hugs,
Karen H.
Factotum: a tiny little fact, as in the kind of facts I learn every day from my four year old. We're driving through the neighborhood and he points at a house and yells, "it's California!" Same house, everytime. It's a factotum.
Frisson: when frizzy hair becomes popular among the cool, hip crowd, you'll overhear the young girl say, as she goes to fix her hair, "I'm going to get my frisson"
weak, I know.
Factotum; it's a mispronunciation of "fatotum" which is about a wide totem pole.
Frisson; another mispronunciation, this time it's for "freezing". As in, "I'm frisson my butt off in this weather".
Where's my prize?
frisson: That's where friggin' criminals wind up after they're friggin' sentenced!
factotum: A totum (sic) belonging to the Fac Indian Tribe.
Frisson- As I was a teen in the eighties I know this word. It means I am all that! "Look, Jen has her frisson
Factotum- This is a product to alleviate indigestion. It came to light when C-Span came on cable. It allows one to be relieved of painful stomach gas, as Congress tries to spew falsehoods as facts
Frisson: A delicate, ephemeral feeling, such as fear.
Usage: Sarah felt a frisson of fear run up her spine when she saw Gator with the cattle prod.
Factotum: A clearly defined fact.
Sunshine knows his name and address factotum.
I am drawing a blank this week--anything that came to mind, someone already said. Too funny!
