Love Notes to My Family (Or Possibly a Dictator)

Did you know dry erase boards could bring about world peace?  It's true.  If everyone had one on their refrigerator, there'd be no more war.  I guess I should tell Congress or something.  Write a letter to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave about my breakthrough.  Well, I bet everyone in Washington checks my blog frequently anyway.  Senators seem the type that would lurk and not comment.  So I'm sure they'll see this.

It's a simple fix, really.  Writing out thoughts, to-do lists, grocery needs (or perhaps national debt balancing ideas, troop deployment schedules, job creation tactics) knowing you can just carelessly wipe it all away moments or days later--it has a calming effect.  It organizes a frantic brain.  Every world leader should have one.  They should come standard with every UN seat.

You know, someone should really give one to Kim Jong-il. 

I've taken to writing love notes to my family on my dry erase board.

Don't you think some country's dictator could be placated for a day if he saw this when he woke up in the morning?

Or possibly this?

Recently my mom brought me another dry erase board from her church's thrift store.

I affixed some magnets to it and put it up next to the other one on the fridge.

And you know what happened?  Our household harmony doubled!

I'm telling you, these things are miraculous.

Because, did you know that the amount of harmony found in a home is directly proportionate to the amount of dry erase boards in the home?  Mm-hmm.  Little known fact.

But I still need one more.  Because, did you know that the amount of joeys found in one's home is directly proportionate to the amount of chaos in the home?  Yep.  Betcha didn't know that. 

This means I need my household harmony tripled.  Must make a note on my dry erase board to pick up another dry erase board.

Glad I could share so much knowledge with you (and come up with the solution for world peace) today.  You can thank me later.  Or now.  Whatever you feel is best.
