Hahaha I tell my kids the same! “You get what you get and you don’t get upset”. Oddly enough the teachers at my eldest’s school uses it too

There is another great saying that I got from my best friend and then I heard it on Judge Judy. " God gave us Two ears and one mouth so we can listen twice as much as we speak." I have silenced a few people with that one.:D

Ok , now that I have a moment from cooking dinner and helping child with homework, I can now show off my trade with John Brewer. John sent me a very cool Ichyosaur coprite with inclusions from Blackvenn, Charmonth UK. 

Jurassic! Thank-you John! I took a couple pics, one of the inclusions is larger and easy to see while the others were tough to photogragh.

I want to thank everyone that has participated in this trade. That includes those I traded with and those that have traded with others. There has been some very interesting items changing hands. Items I would have never guessed members would put up. Kudos to all!:dinothumb:

It's about time some adults stop giving kids everything they want. This last generation has grown to expect everything without question.

Don't get me started!

Seriously, what other hobby allows you to walk along, pick up a stool off the ground, stick it in your pocket and think nothing of it.

Not to mention, you bragging to everybody, "I'm so lucky to have found a turd today"!  and actually have them be envious of you.

I am confident it will come, and quite enjoy the increasing anticipation. Things can be slow here, but they do happen, eventually. :)

That is if Tidgy didnt eat the delivery slip.

She's a good girl. 

She would be far more interested in seeing what's in the parcel and then sitting on it. 

She likes to sit on my fossils.

Today I recieved my trade from @CBOB

A very nice 

Fossil Leaf

Fort Union Formation

McCone County, Montana

Paleocene

Thanks Chris! It is nice to be able to add a plant specimen to my collection. And by the way, your package should reach you Tuesday. Unfortunately,  once again I sent a package without the Fossil information with it. This is the third time I have done this.  So once you get the package, Let me know and I will give you all the proper info.

That's a swell gift Chris!

As the saying goes Dave,
