I put rocks with marbles and a bouncing ball that looks like a marble, and I started out with just marbles with the soap, but there weren't quite enough. Some of my rocks are agates, and some are volcanic, and some are sea shells. I just called them all rocks. I may sort them out again. What sort of bowls do you use? Are they big? Are they clay? Are they glass? I got a microfiber duster. It works great, and the head is washable.Vitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05648727808256233855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15901777.post-1153461714061495862006-07-21T03:01:00.000-03:002006-07-21T03:01:00.000-03:00I'll let you have the cute pool guy, but you may h...I'll let you have the cute pool guy, but you may have a fight on your hands if I don't have sole domain over the whipping boy!phlegmfatalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08636803080525003892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15901777.post-1153306561290941822006-07-19T07:56:00.000-03:002006-07-19T07:56:00.000-03:00Vita...My rocks are decorative...they range from r...Vita...My rocks are decorative...they range from river rocks to big chunks of amethyst and aquamarine and Pietersite etc. All rocks give off energy and take it in. I rinse mine in cold water - no soap or cleaning stuff - and then let them air dry. Certain semi-precious stones can suffer damage to their surfaces if put them in contact with salt water or soap - and it's bad for their energy. The bowls get cleaned with soap and water.LJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03238060965921536507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15901777.post-1153256888071152862006-07-18T18:08:00.000-03:002006-07-18T18:08:00.000-03:00Hey, great list.

I wish I could have some lovely cool drink, but I think I'll just have to settle for water because I have to go out later. Besides, I think I'm hampered by only liking wine, beer, and Scotch. Poor me.Vitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05648727808256233855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15901777.post-1153225557077691342006-07-18T09:25:00.000-03:002006-07-18T09:25:00.000-03:00Hi Jess.

Still, I got it done - AND cooked. I'm glad it got a laugh, my attention deficit housekeeping.<BR/><BR/>PF.."Not motivated" sounds so much better than "lazy and scattered." The same cruel fate afflicts us both. A love of beautiful expensive things (shoes, lamps)combined with lack of "motivation" in the household arts. <BR/>Staff would be nice. May I have a cute pool guy?LJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03238060965921536507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15901777.post-1153201839245093082006-07-18T02:50:00.000-03:002006-07-18T02:50:00.000-03:00you look adorable with your blue feather duster. ...you look adorable with your blue feather duster. # 9 is my favorite - I'm not the most motivated housekeeper myself. I have tons of interesting shit, but I need a staff to tidy up after me.

It casts a spell. The spell works best when you're hot and sweaty and don't want to vacuum.
