Five handmade things!

The first five people to respond to this post will get something made by me!!


This offer does have some strings so please read carefully:

* I make no guarantees that you will like what I make

* What I create will be just for you

* It'll be done this year (2009)

* You have no clue what it's going to be


I may make something crafty or artsy, a pot holder, a framed photo, a magnet, a poem, book, a short video, a playdoh sculpture, a cookie, a vest knitted from cat hair or something entirely different....basically whatever strikes my fancy.

Here's the fine print:

In return, all you need to do is post this text into a note of your own and make 5 things for 5 others. What could be more fun!!!! (change the above to stuff you do) Some ideas you could do for others: (mix CD's, collage, journal, painting, bake cookies, etc...)

The email I got from Raine...

Subject line: Do you know who the sexiest man alive is?


Text: If not, go to People.com! :)

What Raine wrote: Yes, true validation, my boyfriend is HOT.


For those of you not in the "know." Raine's husband knows who her boyfriend is....and for a reminder, here is a link to an old post that might explain more.

"Raine Recommends" things you should know about Nett

Test your knowledge about Nett. Answer the questions below for your chance to win a secret prize!

(All comments in red are by Netter, Everything else is from Raine)
**note about the picture: My hair was a mess, I wasn't wearing makeup, I have crazy eyes and I'm not sure you can tell, but my glasses got stuck in my hair and were hanging backwards and upside down. That's what I get for using them to push my hair back. Raine wanted me to add it and since this is her show...she gets what she wants. Now on with the show.

CONTEST RULES...because we need rules.

1)DO NOT POST YOUR ANSWERS AS A COMMENT, instead send them to Frankland@gmail.com
2)The contest will run for one week from the date it is posted. so the deadline is midnight on November 2, 2007.
3)Asking Netter what her answer would be, is not allowed. She's not going to help anyone win or she will suffer the wrath of Rain. Trust me, you don't want to be on Rain's shit list.
4)You don't necessarily have to get all the questions right and points will be awarded for the most creative. This scares me a little, but you just as well have fun with it

Rain has a prize package all ready to go and here's the Blog Quiz.

1) What is Annette's middle name? Extra points: what is the correct
spelling?
2) What creature is Millie Kaster (Nett's mom) deathly afraid of?
3) When is Netter's birthday?
4) Allen Kaster (Nett's dad) makes the best ever what?
5) What is Annette's favorite Christmas movie?
6) What shape does Annette love to collect?
7) True or false Annette likes S&M? Raine! OMG, I can't believe you stuck that question in there...for shame, for shame...lol. Raine, do you even know the real answer to that question or are you winging it?!
8) What U.S. States has Annette NOT visited?
9) What is Annette's niece's name? (Too easy, I know but I'm throwing you a bone here people)
10) What was the name of Annette's cat when she was little? I actually had two cats during my childhood...can you name them both?

HINT: The answers to nearly all of these questions are mentioned in posts on this blog

BONUS #1: What is Annette doing in a picture that Rain has that Annette
would KILL Rain for if Rain ever posted the pic? I swear! I SWEAR... that sucker better never see the light of day because I found the duplicate of the picture you made me destroy of you. No, that isn't a treat, I'm just saying, that's all...

BONUS #2: What nationality of men does Annette seem to romantically prefer? lol..sheesh, do we even agree on this?

BONUS #3: What is the last scary movie Annette watched in the theater? Why did I go to that movie?!

It's Raine's 29th Birthday....AGAIN....

Happy Birthday to you...

Happy Birthday to you...

Happy Birthday....

Dear Raine....

Happy Birthday to you,

And many more, 29th birthdays...

toooooo youuuuuuu!

Raine is in good old Nebrasky, enjoying the food at the State Fair and spending time enjoying her Grandma Sullivans good ole cookin' with her Sister.

I miss her.

I have to wait to see her when she returns.

Sighhhhh, September 8th seems like a life time away.

Hurry back!

My thoughts on...Twitter.

I love Twitter.com. I love my little sidebar link and update. I love checking back in to see what my pals on my buddy list have to say for themselves. I love writing in 140 spaces or less, what is popping out of my head, at any given moment.

The thing that drives me nuts about Twitter. The people that are just buddy hogs. They don't really update, they just add people as their friend so they have a huge friends list. I don't just add them...I go to their page and check them out. If they have not left a comment for several days, I nudge them. If they start leaving comments again, I add them to my friends list. Well, except for the guy that used the "N" word in his user name. I don't like the word and didn't want it listed on my friends page. I know in a way that is censorship, but I don't want to encourage the use of that particular word.
Then there is the guy that denied my nudge. He has a few thousand friends on his list and he has one post. ONE, so I nudged him and I got a notice that he wasn't accepting nudges. So I denied him a place on my friends list until he starts posting again. Hey, its my Twitter, and a gal has to be picky who she allows into her friends column. lol, that sounded a little dirty.


OH...and if anyone wants to know who got me hooked on this Twitter Crack...it was Raine. She's always giving good recommendations

Anyway, I'm off to run errands. FUN FUN.

Raine Reccomends...

You know, only a really good friend would send you a gift like this. Yep a freind that just wants to make sure you are taking care of yourself and thus, gives you the tools to do so.

I received this in the mail from Raine:

Looks like a very pretty blue velvet bag...with an interesting, yet vague tag. Hmmm, what could it hold? Let's see, shall we...AH HA! Its a pie slice shaped hand mirror. Yep and if you flip it over it has a huge product endorsement on it. Yep, Raine sent me a coochie mirror so I can keep an eye out for bread baking down there. Luckily I don't suffer from yeast infections...unless I take a certain antibiotic. I learned my lesson, I make sure the doctor prescribes something else. However, if I'm ever inflicted with a strange feeling...I can look for the signs. Raine highly recommends that we all keep an eye on our whozzie whatzits. Its for our own good...view your vagina today!

My Friend Raine Recommends...

Stalking movie stars!

And I quote:

"YES! That's a great rec: and I've even attached the pic! My love for MD (Matt Damon) is on the quiet side, I like to keep it private and I'd take him over George, Brad or Ben etc. any day. Now in a show down with JM (Joey McIntyre)? I'd have to think about it... "

Raine always seems to spot stars. The Girl misses nothing. I wouldn't label her a stalker...but when she wants to see someone, she is full of energy and patients. I'll never forget the good old days when I'd ride along on her trips to Glen Cove and PJ Morgans Island to try to see a musical group that she liked. She found the house, thanks to the girl at the drive up window at McDonalds and to the old guy walking his dog on the Island. Awww, good times.
