Found this one when I was straightening her room. It may or may not be related to yesterday's list:
Is she trying to re-enact a scene from the movie "Fargo"? Slay some vampires? Cross-stitch me a "Bless This Mess" needlepoint to hang on the kitchen wall?
I better not piss her off, just in case she actually manages to get her hands on any of this stuff.
Another shawty post... no need to click.

You'll have to take a picture of the finished product!
these lists are hysterical! love em! She is awesome.
Hahahahahahahaha. Hahahahaha. Uhhhhh, hehheh. : )
Yer darn tootin!
Watch it. That list sounds suspiciously like ones my sister and I used to write when we were planning to catch critters to keep as pets since our parents wouldn't get us a dog. Only ours would have said "carrots" too.
Of course, perhaps they're just planning a kidnapping and you can relax. I mean, who could they tie up inextricably in ribbon and embroidery thread?
I fear the 6ft gardening posts have something to do with Boy and Jail.
This is so funny and has given me a great idea for a post.
At this point, do you even want to know what she is thinking?
Yikes - considering the other post, I'm thinking The Boy better watch his back ...
HILARIOUS!
We once looked and looked all over for my husbands passport. The one place we didnt look under my then 2 year olds bed. The items, my husbands passport, a dollar bill, his chevrons (rank insignia) that needed I needed to sew on his shirts, and some string.
I haven't a clue what kind of McGayver thingy he was going to fashion.
I think the fact that she specifies "not a tarp" at the bottom can be viewed as a relief, for apparently there will be no body(ies) to wrap and dispose of. However, the need for METAL garden STAKES and neeting would concern me. Also, the faint hit of a figure drawn behind the list has me questioning whether that's a smile or a scream on the drawing's face.
These matters, coupled with the previous list can only mean sleeping with one eye open.
you need to watch out for that girl.....
She's moving out! That's it. She is going to build an apartment!
That's a very specific list... I'll bet she has the schematics hidden somewhere.
Thanks for coming by the pond!
At least a shovel isn't on the list...otherwise, I might be scared.
LOL!!! She's really creative. I think she's going to be a writer.
my lists? so incredibly lame in comparison.
note to self: must work on better, cooler, more mysterious lists.
Panic when the list includes:
- duct tape
- swede saw
- ether
She is building you a prison. Better cough up more candy woman. Pronto!
You're okay - until you find the list that include a chainsaw ...
I'm definitely seeing a very very tall bird condo, decorated to make some happy "couple" a very lovely home!!
and yes, please do...take pictures!!
definitely sounds fargo-ish. So funny.
maybe the garden stakes have some link to 'hospital' on the previous list :)
Maybe there's another list somewhere in the house and the three lists put together make all the sense in the world?
I cannot wait to see what she creates when she gets her hands on all that stuff!!
She wants to build a clubhouse for herself? Or a place to stash her brother?
be afraid, be very afraid.
I think its fairly obvious she is building an embroidery shack.
???
This is simply hilarious. When's the trip to Target?
A fallout shelter of some kind? Too funny!
I think it might just be a big, pretty, sparkly thing. We're going to need pictures.
Clearly she's gifted! But watch out if the list making goes over the top...
I find the "not a tarp" addendum particularly ominous. ;)
Its gotta be a fort, right? The fact that the garden stakes have to be metal AND six feet long, however, is somewhat troubling.
I think you are right to keep your distance...at least until this all blows over. :)
On the bright side, she does have EXCELLENT penmanship.
I often wonder what goes through my two-year old's mind...maybe I DON'T want to know???
A mastermind, clearly!
These lists are so funny I nearly peed my pants.
Sounds like she wants to build a fort. But I don't know about the bird netting part. Maybe to catch some illegal songbirds to roast for dinner?
Your girl is gonna end up robbing banks. With meticulous lists like that...she'll be head of Ocean's 19.
I'm starting to worry. She's taken this list thing to the extreme. What are you feeding this child because my child...he needs some of that obvious organizational skill.
OMG I can't stop laughing. She's obviously organized and innovative so I wouldn't worry too much. At least she's not like my son, drawing pictures of people cutting off their own limbs or engulfed in flames.
It appears she's building some sort of shelter to house an outdoor fire. The netting is to allow smoke to escape, but she needs a waterproof roof to keep the rain off. The embroidery thread is to stitch the netting together, and the stakes are for supports at the corners and/or centre. The ribbon and the cardboard are, obviously, for ornamentation.
Jeez. Like nobody could figure that out.
That's really funny. I'd have to ask her by this point because I would really want to know!
The tarp is NOT for the roof.
It is to roll you up in.
Lock your bedroom door, MM.
Maybe these are the materials she needs to build her apartment from yesterday's list.
perhaps she is preparing for her teen years. She'll need it.
That's hilarious. I wonder what's going on in that little head.
Well, we will know where to look for you when you turn up missing!
It cracks me up though, really, I have a list maker in my house also and recently I found a 'note' he'd drafted to his brother, begging for some one on one time in his room and it actually said that he promised 'not to be annoying.'
I was just so proud he spelled 'annoying' correct.
Perhaps that reads "cardboard target" ... now it makes sense ... the stakes are to fashioned into javelins ... the netting is for capturing something ... Did she by any chance just see a Rambo movie?
This lists are keepers! One day all will be revealed...or not. Either way, it would be worth it to know what she needs for the roof...if not a tarp. Shingles?
An early sign that she won't be forgetting her homework or leaving gym shoes at home. This girl will be ORGANIZED. As a fellow list-making addict, I love her already.
Did she somehow get her hands on a subscription to Martha Stewart Living? It sounds like she's ready to get her complicated craftiness on...
Oh you must have her explain the "why" of all of those items. That might make them even better. Or scarier. Maybe best not to know.
Is it at all possible she's a vampire slayer?...
I'd be worried if she already has access to a candlestick and a shovel.
Oh my goodness! What lists! I'm so curious as to what they are about and really, I hope they don't go together. I love "something for a roof, not a tarp" What is it???
Thanks for stopping by my henhouse!
Wow. that's pretty funny. I like the detail of the list. Not just garden stakes, but metal ones...6 ft metal ones no less!
Welcome back.
I think she is building you a time-out tent.
At least she doesn't have "eulogy" on there, let's think positive here!
She's working on your Christmas present? Can't wait to see/hear what it is!!
I really would be concerned though. If this is her Target list, what does her jail or hospital list include?
This list is really funny - I wonder what she is up to?
Sounds like it will all make a pretty cage, though. :-)
something for a roof, not a tarp?
we could use some of that stuff for our rabbit hutches...

I so needed a good laugh! Thanks!
Also, thanks for stopping by, and I think the name Jennifer is awesome! I'm always explaining how mine is spelled, pronounced, yadda. yadda. yadda.
What the heck is she up to?!?
You know, I could try to beat this, or even just add to it, but why? It's perfect as it is. Keep us posted.
I hope you get everything, maybe it will be a statue erected of you!
this is my second attempt at this comment...
the list is hilarious!
it reminds me of the time when my nephew (then 5-years-old) gave me a Christmas wish list. He got most everything spelled correctly except "Mo Kntrl".
none of us had any idea what it meant. i decided to ask him about the word.
he looked at me like i was the dumbest person in the world and said (pointing out the words as he said them) 'Mote Control.
he wanted a remote control car.
how stupid am i?
I'm thinking she's building a mini-condo for her mini-me.
Interesting, these lists. Wonder what is going through her thoughts?
I'd tell The Boy to be on the alert. Sounds like a little brother trap to me.
She is too funny. A girl after my own heart. I've been known to identify my ideal job as list-maker.
Would love to hear her explanation. Let us know if you find any more!
I love her list. And the interpretation.
Please get the stuff for her. I'm dying to see the end result.
...I think the inportant thing to note is that she wants to go to TARGET specifically:)
These are hilarious! I'm am laughing hysterically at all your posts and I'm getting annoyed stares from office mates.
Much like your flashback pictures, these posts surely deserve a follow up post!
