I think I need to clean out a closet and specify it as the "problem" closet and we can store all of ours there while we sleep well at night. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22755318.post-20146330782370314242008-04-18T14:24:00.000-07:002008-04-18T14:24:00.000-07:00Thanks, y'all.

Even to this day I don't care for leaving my closet door open when I'm trying to get to sleep...hang-ups on hangers indeed!Sarah Stevensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16534942492714970282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22755318.post-5587055271124536462008-04-18T10:24:00.000-07:002008-04-18T10:24:00.000-07:00Hi cousin Greg,I replied to your blog a few days a...Hi cousin Greg,<BR/><BR/>I replied to your blog a few days ago, but I think I never properly joined the Google Group thing, so it bounced back. I read the daily poems to the girls every morning while they are getting ready for school. So far, the Bubble wrap and the Freight Train poems have been the favorites, but this morning's poem was great - I sent it to Sam.<BR/><BR/>Keep 'em coming!<BR/><BR/>xoxo<BR/>LindaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22755318.post-80195963102406681552008-04-18T07:43:00.000-07:002008-04-18T07:43:00.000-07:00I love it!

There's a nightmare in MY closet, truth be told, and the door won't always latch properly.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for making me smile today.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22755318.post-68751799774368429182008-04-18T01:35:00.000-07:002008-04-18T01:35:00.000-07:00This is especially charming because I was obsessiv...This is especially charming because I was obsessive about closing my closet door when I was a kid -- because I really was terrified of it gaping open in the dark... and now living in the UK I *have to* leave the closet open or else it grows mold!! Nightmares indeed!<BR/><BR/>I really love that the 'hang-ups' are all on hangers, and that each fear sits alone. This is really great.tanita✿davishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01671822274852087499noreply@blogger.com
