Good Morning Girls
We are definitely back into winter here! I live on a private road (townhouse development) and the city doesn't plow our road or driveways. So we have to wait to get plowed until our plowing crew can come--we are lower on the priority list as they plow hospitals and clinics first! And they only plow if we get 2" or more! I can certainly get out of my driveway at 2", but I'm not going anywhere! Peggy and I were going to go to the garage sale today, but will wait until tomorrow!
Lois....Funny, I was just thinking about Olivia the other day---as I need a haircut very badly and wondered if she would come and give me one! It's going to quite a learning experience--- to cook differently for Bill. I'm so glad you went to the dietician, I bet they gave you great advice and what's the best food plan for Bill. I know certain foods can be really hard on the kidneys. Some Meds too.
Maryz...So glad you are going camping anyway. If you have to stay inside from the rain, you might as well do it while visiting family and friends. Get out the cards or the dominos and have a game night with the kids. Chill the wine and grab the snacks! I so remember Bob and Betsy! Is Bob the one that bought himself an RV and was going to go traveling?
Diane... Oh my gosh!!! I am so so so sorry to hear the news of your nephew, Nick!! Such heart breaking news for him and for Laura. She doesn't live too far from you does she? Without insurance, surely Nick would be eligible for some sort of aid. I think of Laura often, as there is a song that comes on from time to time, I think Christopher Cross sings it... "Laura" They will both be in my prayers every day and in my nighttime prayers as I go to sleep!
Judi....Next time I dust around here I'll probably be thinking "who is it that I am dusting away"?
Did you find any treasures at the thrift stores? Yeh, I sure wish a lot of missing folks would come back. I wonder if the "views" count each time I click on the section as I go back and forth. But there are still a lot of views with very few posts! Lots of lurkers!!
Jana.... How cool to see somebody from your hometown at the Olympics!! Even if she didn't medal.... who cares! What an amazing thing and what a lot of work she did to get there and what a great experience for her!
Lyn.... Do you believe it's been almost 10 years since we met in Houston! Gosh that was fun. Sue K texts me every once in a while to ask me to come back! It is really tempting! I'm afraid if I went this year, I'd have to bring my walker!! My heart so goes out to you these days, I think of you often and include you in my nightly prayers.
Chriss.... Yikes!!! $8000/yr for insurance??? I thought mine was bad at $644/yr. Mine is what they call an H-O-6 plan because it's a townhouse, I technically only insurance the inside. If something happens on the outside, the association covers it. Have you found any more fabric treasures? Somewhere around here I have a book of all FQ patterns if you need one!
Jana.... Gotta love modern technology!! Smart thermostats are great, but I often think of them like a science fiction movie where robots take over the world! Maybe Daniel and come check and see if the programing through your cell phone might be off, or at the thermostat itself. Since I have a dumb thermostat, I set her at 69-70 and don't touch it until it's time to open windows!! Or flip it to AC!
Since our plans have changed and Peg and I decided best to stay off the roads today, I'm debating whether I am in the mood to tackle cleaning out my bedroom closet. It's a nice big walk in closet and hold a small file cabinet of old papers that could probably be shredded. And I know there are several purses and clothing items that could be donated away. Hmmm, I wonder if there's enough coffee left to get me through that project! If not, I can make more. If I fill a box of donation stuff, I can perhaps drop it off when Peg and I go out--or try to---tomorrow! Ok, I'm going IN!!
Have a great day everyone! Lots of prayers all around!
