Weeping Angel Question
My boys posed a interesting question today. What happens when a weeping angel encounters a blind person? Is it completely immobilized/frozen b/c it is not being sighted? Or b/c the person would be blinking, the angel would be able to creep up? I told them I'd post the question.

halloween rushed dinner
anybody got any quick pre-trick or treating supper ideas? We get home between 6-6:30 and have to be at my inlaws by 7pm(luckily they live 1 mile away). There is going to be a fair amount of costuming time for the kids to fit in there, too.

home-made fit deck
I heard about using a deck of cards as a form of quick exercise, so I wanted to make my own. I don't know what kinds of stuff to put down though. In the beginning I would be using it during commercial breaks at night as a form of additional exercise. Can someone clue me in please?

He laughed…
