Thank you so much for the link. I just loved this idea. My boys (who are teenagers) would totally freak if I actually did this craft. Which totally makes me want to do it for sure! LOL

I see that deliciously wicked smile of yours! This was fabulous! I laughed out loud! and I can think of one or two folks whose looks of horror would be worth the price of a box of tampons!
Many many thanks!
Maybe I should have a blog contest and the winner will get a box of tampons and a bag of goggly eyes! Have a great Monday. *hugs*

COuldn’t do it. Just couldn’t!
BTW- I did start afresh! I asked Athena for a name and here’s what she gave me: Silly Goose. So, it’s Sillygeuse. Get it? Got it? Good! Hugs!
I love it, since you and the goosies seem so akin. Can’t wait to see it when it’s up.

All I did was ((((LMAO)))) on this one. Hey me9er31, why couldn’t you! It seems easy enough! LOL!
Hey ladies, a little shock to peoples system every now and again, is not too bad. Besides, no-one should have a heart-attack or get a stroke from this project.
Yo, mystarbucks, what would be even better, is to have your teenage boys help you with the project. Now, this would be a “hoot” as Bubba John would say!
Man, don’t you just love it!!!!
I haven’t laughed so hard since I read antibarbie’s ABC’s about me!
Have a great weeke ladies!
With regards,
I couldn’t stop launghing either. I want to hang them from my front trees. *l*

My regrets for the numerous spelling errors! Late, I’m tired and should have been in bed earlier!
Peace and all that Jazz!
Spelling errors are a sign of character.

What does this mean anyway? Love and Kisses or something? Dunno… Guess I need to ask my children eh?
Thank you, I couldn’t a have done it without the help in your email.
and O (sounds like ‘hold’, as in ‘I hold you’).
According to Wikipedia here’s the answer to your XOXO query:
It is debatable which letter represents which act. The most common interpretation assumes that X represents the four lips of a kiss and O the four arms of a hug. For example, the Oxford English Dictionary states that X is “used to represent a kiss, esp. in the subscription to a letter.” [1]. A less common interpretation assumes X as the crossed arms of a hug and O as the puckered lips of a kiss. Additionally, there is a more simple interpretation, based on the pronunciation of the letters X (sounds like ‘kiss’
The use of XOXO goes back to the use of an X or cross, which was considered as good as a sworn oath in times before most people could write and therefore used the X in the same way a signature is used today — a mark of one’s word. An X at the end of a letter or document was often kissed as a seal of honesty, in much the same way one would kiss a Bible or kiss the fingers after making the sign of the Christian cross. Thus the X came to represent a kiss in modern times.[citation needed]
The “X” was also the ancient Paleo Hebrew letter Tav, and was a symbol of the Seal of Hashem (God) and it represented truth, completeness, and perfection.
The origins of the O as a hug are not generally known, although it is speculated that it may represent the arms wrapped around someone being hugged.
