Desperation

So I chose this title, then looked in the Thesaurus. I may not be feeling full desperation. Although, I may now as Sela screams and tugs on my arm. Have I ever told you of my obsession for Dictionaries and The Thesaurus? Guess that will come another day, after I finish the book I am reading.

I am desperate to find a renter for our home in 3 weeks.

I was desperate to find an ice pack. A frozen banana was chosen instead.

A showing for our home was bumped up so I had 40 minutes to perfect my house. In a moment of desperation I put the kids in the car with 2 popsicles each. A week later, cleaning my car, I asked myself what this red sticky stuff was.

And I feel full desperation knowing our best friends are moving away this summer.

Ken, are you sure you can't just find another job in Ann Arbor?

don't make me cry

You know the saying "desperate times call for desperate measures"

Well, Julie was desperate for something to soothe her ear and she found a frozen black banana (makes me laugh to see the pics)

You are desperate to get into a new house so you gave your wild childs not 1 but 2 popsicles. How they stayed in the car I still don't know are you sure you did not give them more.

I am desperate to have a husband again - although I'm not sure why sometimes; so we are moving to a town in the middle of nowhere. but it is only 1 hour away. not close enough for our withching hour visits but close enough for summer days, weekends, and school breaks.
