It is working again--thank goodness.  LOL  I did get a email from them and they said it took a while for the message box to come on sometimes,  so I don't know.  I tried it a few times after that and waited a while to see if it would work but wouldn't.  But thank goodness it is working now.--I may never shut up now.  LOL 

Lois the weather is good here today to.  The sun is shinning, but it is cold.  LOL  I think I might as well get use to it tho it is winter.  you ask about the light--right now it isn't to bad.  This morning at work I was getting ready to leave and it was still dark, but up over the mts you see it was getting ready to be light. 

I think it is a great idea to have you dinner in the garage where everyone can be together. 

Lois  those girls do sound pretty busy don't they, but I think you sound pretty busy to.  LOL  I spend a lot of time goofing off to.  I spend to much time on this computer for sure.  My house is always a mess.  I do need to get busy and get it cleaned before the holidays. 

My daughter goes to the doctor on monday.  someone canceled and they called her.  I sure hope she doesn't have to go on dialises (SPL)  Thank you for your prayers.  She has a lot of people praying for her 

Hope everyone is having a great weekend.  Where is everyone?  Ginnyjane are you controling that peanut butter? LOL  I am afraid I have gotten addicted to almond butter and no I am not controling it to well.   

Lois that skirt sound nice.  Isn't it nice to go shopping and be able to wear a size 12.  That is the size I am wearing now.  I have even started wearing JEANS.  I never did wear jeans much since high school 

well guess I better get off here and start our supper.  Everyone have a great weekend.  I will be going to church and our sunday school class is having a pot luck.  Woe is my eating healthy.  LOL 

But I will try to control myself.

Dolores;  Glad to have you back---I am praying that your daughter gets good news today.   Weathermen are saying we could get snow tomorrow--wouldn't mind some--it makes it good for the hunters--but don't like them driving in it.    Lois; sounds like you will have a big group for Thanksgiving----I'm not sure yet how many will be here but we went shopping yesterday and got a 21lb turkey---they were on sale for 39 cents a lb--had to spend $25.00 to get that price---but that isn't hard to do.   Joy;  Looks like you will  get snow today----hope you have nice weather to drive in. 

I am still trying to get 2 more quilts done for Christmas---have to put them together with batting and backing.   I don't have a frame so have to work on the floor---my knee  doesn't like all that crawling around.    Our #2 grandson just bought a house so we went to see it yesterday---he is an electrical apprentice---so bought a small house in town that needs some fixing up.  We are very proud of him---also met his girlfriend for the first time---very nice---she has a 2 yr old daughter--so we invited her here for Thanksgiving and our family Christmas----sure would be nice to have a 2 yr old at Christmas time.  She wasn't sure yet if she could come---she lives with her parents and had to check with them.     

Just had 2 big bucks in our yard---not at same time but very close---Bill was wishing it was Sat. 

Hope everyone has a good day.  Have to bring some wood in the house now. Temp is going down this week. 

Jane 

I am soo happy this afternoon.  LOL  MY daughter went to the doctor and she does NOT have to go on dailisis.  Thank the Good Lord.  He put her on a diet of no salt,  low protein. to eat mostly fruits and veggies.  Suppose to eat mostly fish or chicken.  She was a happy camper to.  He said they would keep close tabs on her.  He said she might have to in a couple of years, but for right now she doesn't.  Thank youall for the prayers.  Prayer does work doesn't it? 

Wow  Jane 2 big bucks in your yard.  Isn't that exciting.  We have moose in our yard sometimes (right in town) LOL  And we never get tired of seeing them.  I would love to have a few packages of deer in our freezer.  I think deer burger makes really good chili. 

Sounds like everyone is very busy getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas.  We don't have to many on Thanksgiving.  Usually our son comes and of course my daughter lives with us and her daughter,  and that is about it.  I have done a little Christmas shopping, but I am not near done.  I do have to get a package ready to mail to our other daughter.  I would like to have that done before Thanksgiving. 

I hope everyone is having a good choice of food day.  I haven't been the best this week at all.  Yesterday our Sunday School Class had pot luck .  You guessed it I REALLY MESSED UP.   So I have to get my act together and get back on track..  I am really going to have to be careful from now until the first of the year, or I will gain really bad. 

Well I think I am rambling so guess I better hush and get busy.  Have a great day everyone.  Dolores 

DOLORES--so thankful your dtr does'nt have to go on the machine. Sure glad you got on to post, good to know someone else goofs off too, sometimes I do feel guilty, but not enough to quit it, and Leo never complains, I'M SO LUCKY !!  Alot of my goof off time is playing games on the computer. Is'nt it great to be wearing jeans again? I love wearing them. You and Jane have animals so close to home, must be nice to look out and see them. JANE--Oh to be able to see those beautiful bucks in your yard, I know they are food, I've just never seen a big one in person.  Our son has gone a couple of times and again this week end, he has killed 2 so far, he makes alot of chili from some of it and he shares. Our Kroger store here has Jenny-O-turkeys for .37c,if you buy $20. groceries. JOY -- your time coming to Texas is growing near. We are not having but around 12  here for  Thanksgiving, Today, Leo said we may have to eat in the house, as it was 37 deg. this morning, but the garage leads into the kitchen, so we can just leave the kitchen door open and should get enough heat out there. It is a double garage, with 2 windows and the door has 8 glass panes in it  and it is insulated.    One light in ceiling, so with 2 or 3 lamps out there, it will be light enough. JOY--did you got to VA yesterday for Archie? Is he having more test or for his shoulder?? I just called and it is now 47 deg. the sun is out and the wind has calmed down, it is a beautiful day.  Well,it's 20 till 2 so guess I'd better try to get some sewing done.  I'm still trying to take up some of the blouses and couple light jackets on the shoulder.  IT'S NOT EASY, but I just can't buy very many clothes at once. and these are too new to give away, COURSE I DON;T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO LOOK LIKE WHEN I FINISH. I'M really trying to do a neat job. I baste them after I pin them in, and try them on, if they look half way desent, then i sew them on machine. Times flying, so take care, hope everyones doing ok, have'nt heard from Jinnyjane, hope she is ok   Lois 

Dolores;  I am so happy for you and your daughter---now you can have a good holiday.   We woke up to 3 inches of heavy wet snow this morning.  Started as rain yesterday and as the temp went down---it changed to snow and snowed all night.  Trees were so pretty with the snow hanging on the branches until the wind whipped up today and blew it all over the place.  Our buck was back again today---hope he hangs around until Sat.   Lois;  I thought I got a good deal on Jenny-o turkeys but your price is even better.   Gas has come down to 2.29 but bet it goes up again this weekend. 

Joy;  Hope the news from VA is good news.    Have been so busy sewing---my eating has been good---no time to snack.    Hope everyone has a good evening.    Jane 

Well, it's a beautiful day, 54 deg,at 10:10 am. I just took 2 pecan pies out of the oven, have the turkey in the sink with cold water, will take it out soon and put back in the refrig. Our son has gone deer hunting and will be back later today. He is going to cook turkey and make dressing. He is a good cook, he cooked a hen and made dressing last year and me and one of my sisters made dressing also, but guess who's was eaten first?  HIS.  He wanted to do it again this year so we all decided to let him. My youngest sister and husband are leaving today to take a 10 day cruise, so they won't be here, but the rest of us, including my niece, made a menu and divided it between all of us.  We have the garage all cleaned and tables and chairs out there, it looks pretty good.  I really cleaned house good yesterday. I am getting my hair trimed at 1:15 today. My son gave me a recipe to make for him. It's a sweet potato pie with Pecan topping, sounds good, so I will make that this afternoon. It did get down to 34 deg the other morning. but it's a sunny one today.  I know everyone is getting busy with all the cooking and cleaning for company, and alot may not be posting for a few days, so I do hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving day.  It was good to hear from Jinnyjane again.  So till later, Lois
