I feel like you should contact them to be a White Out model. Wait, do they still advertise/sell White Out or have you been hoarding that in your basement since the 90s? If they still sell it, you should totally contact them.Dollops of Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15972810307843283411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6074904356505215216.post-48477435856466405372013-07-22T00:56:37.596-05:002013-07-22T00:56:37.596-05:00Great minds!

First time for everything, right? I am sure the boys will LOVE the boards once I figure out what I'm going to do for bean bags. Perhaps my next manic phase will have me learning to sew?Mariannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04509329937576764550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6074904356505215216.post-11037803729465180862013-07-22T00:51:43.126-05:002013-07-22T00:51:43.126-05:00Are you in a 12 step program?
