Removing superglue and plastic from body....

It's amazing how I can still type even though I can't really feel the keyboard.

How do you remove superglue? Especially if it has firmly adhered plastic to your body so tightly that Hummer couldn't pull it apart?

Quit giggling or I won't tell you what happened.

It had been a long week and the kids had really stepped up to the plate. I had a 3 hour community parenting meeting after work on Thursday (made some awesome contacts by the way and really put myself out there for additional seminars). On Saturday, I was at Parent University all morning (another 4 hours).

Ryann watched the boys and everything went well. So I decided that Sunday we would take a trip to the zoo and have some fun.

Ryann woke up Sunday with a fever and since the weather was still a little too brisk, I scratched the whole Zoo trip. But I wanted to do something nice for them. So.....and don't laugh at me....I took them to Chuck E. Cheese. I know, I know - I swore I would never voluntarily step foot in that place again......but I did.

I read my book and they had a blast for several hours.

They earned handfuls of tickets. And at the end they turned in the tickets and picked out plastic cheap toys/trinkets.

Welll.....on the way home one of the cheap plastic toys broke and a child was distraught. So - mom to the rescue with SUPERGLUE. Cheap plastic toys are made with cheap plastic that can flake and melt from the power of SUPERGLUE --- and now you know why I have plastic fused to my fingers.

And the toy....by the time, I had it fixed, the interest had wanned and the toy was no longer desired. I thought about SUPERGLUING it to Dane's forehead but figured that would cause a few comments to be raised about my parenting skills.

So....about the removal of SUPERGLUE and plastic.....any ideas?
