As most of you know I have a very good friend named La
Sha who I am always with. Which works out very well since her son and Nathan are the best of friends, at least most of the time! They share a very unique brotherly love where they are friends one minute and mortal enemies the next! (Since La
Sha and I have words for everything we will call them
frenemies!) La
Sha in fact spends so much time at my house that she has acquired the nickname "squatter" from my husband! Lately La
Sha has not been around nearly as much! She has been helping out another friend by caring for her two young children during the day. I do not mind sharing "my" La
Sha with other people however we miss her! By we I do mean all of us, even my husband (although he will not admit it). Without "squatter" around he has to listen (or at least pretend to listen)to me talk endlessly about everything that I usually tell La
Sha. Nathan will ask me daily where "
Da Sha" is because no "
Da Sha" means no Peyton and no Peyton means no fun! Then there is Lilli and well Lilli just misses her "Auntie La
Sha", because she makes her laugh and paints her toenails! Charlie and Maggie even miss her because there are no extra hands to scratch them and now who are they suppose to lay by when they have to pass gas! Without La
Sha around, our house is missing a great deal of LAUGHTER. (after all who else do you know who
reenacts the clue movie so well!) I now have to post a wanted add in the news paper that will read as follows:

WANTED: A full time squatter
Must have the following qualifications:
able to complete at least 85% of the OK Magazines crossword puzzle with minimal to no help from me
be VERY competitive and enjoy playing scrabble and other random games
like to watch Amazing Race, Survivor and Big Brother then compare notes
capable of doing voice overs
have a sharp eye for people watching
have an outgoing personality with stalker like traits
You will only be considered for this position if you are able to multi task! You will need to be my right and left hand when mine are full! Must like the song currently playing called Pull shapes by the Pipettes and believe that it truly makes the world a happier place
Serious inquiries only

You have got to be the craziest person I know. How long did it take you to come up with all that?
Good luck in your hiring process. But you'll never find another person who can tolerate Ben's abuse. LOL!
I miss you too!
I'm applying for the open Squatter postion. My qualifications are as follows:
I have unless entertainment knowledge so I believe I can handle the OK mag. crossword puzzles.
I love board games (pictionary and sence it are my favorites)
I do watch the shows you listed in the AD plus many, many more.
I am a people watcher, and have only once been called a stalker!
Might I add that I too can act out sences from CLUE or many other movies, take for instance The Rocky Horror Picture Show!
As for your Lilli, I don't like babies but form some reason they do like me?????
I will scratch your dogs. And I have a very senstive nose so I'm sure they're gas will bother me as well.
I do have a Monster that can play with your Nathan!
I seem to have met all your requirements. Please consider my application!
I can start at the beginning of the new year! Maybe sooner?
I would also like to apply for the position... However.. I am whoafully underqualified...
I could MAYBE do 5% of the crossword puzzles in OK mag...
I LOVE scrabble, but I am not competitive at all... I do like other random games...
I think I may have watched part of each of the mentioned shows once or twice, so that part I may have to outsorce...
I REALLY like to people watch!!
and I do have an outgoing personality (or so I have been told at times) and I can stalk with the best of them!!
I can multitalk... I have 4 kids and a significant other!
I have a right and left hand!!
And the song currently playing is Somewhere over the Rainbow... So I'm not sure what to say about that one... lol
Seriously... did it take you like forever to come up with this??? You probably sat at that computer with a baby in your hand ignoring my phone calls for hours writing this... LMAO
Canidate #1 AKA Not La Sha---- I will be in contact with you soon! You seem perfect for the job! Do you have any prior experience?
I am looking for a TWILIGHT PARTNER
would you be interested?
Canidate # 2 AKA Freakville---- I am sorry to inform you that I am no longer accepting applications for the Squatter position. I am sure you would have been an amazing squatter so I will keep your name on file for future use!
-----------------------------------
No it did not take to long to come up with, it actually took longer to type it. I was trying to type it really fast so I would'nt forget what I wanted it to say! (I am not able to type as fast as I talk) Well that led to lots and lots of mistakes to go back and fix! Eiether way it really makes you take a look at all the LITTLE things you would miss if you really had to "hire" a new best friend! I challenge everyone to write a wanted add for a replacement best friend and post it. Not only will your friend enjoy it you will learn a lot from it! Like how important those silly little things you do together really are and just how much you would miss them if they were gone tomorrow!
ok now you're just trying to make people cry!
That is so sweet. Really it is awesome I like this very much. I could not ever think of any thing like this. It bring tears to my eyes. See how special you are.
Im not quiet sure how old this add is but if the " squatter" position is still avaliable i woud be interested in the job. My Qualifications are a follows.
1. i have No idea what the OK magazine is but i can do 1/2 the crossword puzzle in the local newspaper .I cant spell really
2.im not to competitive but i can pretend well.I do love all games though. I often make up my own words then argue weather they are real or not !
3.I like to watch Survivor, i can watch amazing race and Big brother.
4. I am a avid people watcher
5. I also have a unique or Quirky persnality and i am vey stalkerish.
I think we could balance each other out. Im sure your kids would learn to like me, i could play well with them. and the dogs i could scratch them and even throw a ball ! Please consider me .
I forgot to mention i cant do voice overs but i can rcte lots of parts of movies, plays and books. I can make up my own stories , and i enjoy pretending like i can sing dance and cheer ! ( witch i will do in public !)
OK..Well, as far as La Sha's comment on you are just tryin to make people cry..you have done that! I am glad that your "squatter" brings so much joy to your life. Mine has a HUGE empty space without her! I LOVE YOU La Sha and miss you like no other!!! Nice job on your ad Nikki, fits her to a T!!!!!!
