Just for Boys

Why is there so little online content just for boys. I searched on Goggle and found clothes and clothes and clothes available to buy. Well, thats not my idea of Just for Boys!!

I know there are boys online. Where do they like to go, what do they like to see and how do they surf the net? Is there a secret club, no girls allowed?

I did find the Boy Scouts of America. I would guess boys like the game sites too. There are too many of those to list. Just type in online games in the Google web search and you will find plenty to start with. Most commercial sites like Lifesavers and McDonalds have good online games for kids, boys included.

What else do boys do online? So far, I don't know.

Expired Vitamins?

Is it ok to take expired vitamins? I never remember to take them everyday. I always end up with half a bottle to go a month past the expiry date. :) Found out more about vitamins but no answer to my questions. I still don't know if the old pills are worth taking. Not that they seem to be helping much, I've got a runny nose and two cold sores today. :(

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy Sunshine in my eyes can make me…

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry Sunshine on the water looks so lovely Sunshine almost always makes me high If I had a day that I could give you I’d give to you a day just like today If I had a song that I could sing for you I’d sing a song to make you feel this way

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry Sunshine on the water looks so lovely Sunshine almost always makes me high

If I had a tale that I could tell you I’d tell a tale sure to make you smile If I had a wish that I could wish for you I’d make a wish for sunshine all the while

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry Sunshine on the water looks so lovely Sunshine almost always makes me high Sunshine almost all the time makes me high Sunshine almost always

I Remember You are My Sunshine

The other night, dear, as I lay sleeping I dreamed I held you in my arms When I awoke, dear, I was mistaken So I hung my head and cried

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine You make me happy when skies are grey You'll never know, dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away

I'll always love you and make you happy If you will only say the same But if you leave me to love another You'll regret it all someday

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine You make me happy when skies are grey You'll never know, dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away

You told me once, dear, you really loved me And no one else could come between. But now you've left me and love another, You have shattered all my dreams.

You are my sunshine, my only sunshine You make me happy when skies are grey You'll never know, dear, how much I love you Please don't take my sunshine away

As kids we lived in a small town, Kincardine, near Lake Superior. My Dad worked in Toronto and I hardly remember him being there at all. Mom and my brother and baby sister would drive back and forth from our country/farm house (run down wreck) to the town. The road went right alongside the lake. I can remember Mom singing You are My Sunshine as we drove along. :)

Redhead Girls in Fiction

The ultimate Raggedy Ann site. I've bought the pattern and some fabric but I've yet to actually start making the dolls. I have mine up here by the desk. My Mom made her with grey hair. Even she wonders why she did that now. It was what she had around then, but grey?!! It does make her pretty unique among Raggedy Ann's. All the popular dolls have red hair of some shade.

I think Raggedy Ann is the US attempt at our Canadian Anne of Green Gables. Of course there is Pippi Longstocking too. I'm not sure if she isn't English though. Odd how all three of my favourite fictional characters are all red heads. I'm not, my hair is a lovely shade of brown, chestnut. My little sister is a redhead but she just isn't someone you could picture as the Anne/ Ann type. Though we did call her Orphan Annie when she was a kid. Her hair was out of control back then, just too darn curly. Cute though. :)
