I’m going to post this on my most used forum threads so I’m sorry if you see it twice. I won’t be my normally chatty self for a while as I have now started my 10 hour days and weekends at work until April 15, the receptionist (our only other support staff) is out for 12 weeks on maternity leave, husband has knee surgery December 23, QUICK trip to Kentucky over New Years with daughter for their Christmas , and still have to wrap all of the presents for 24 people and I haven’t even started yet. I’ll try to read your posts when I can because I love hearing from you all and consider you all my new friends! I’m not ignoring you - just really struggling for time right now and trying not to go completely crazy (I’m only half way there so far! ) If I really need to see something tree-mail me so I pay attention!
Yeah, as tired as you are going to be, I can surely see the danger potential, there.
Okay, we have started to get colder temperatures (forecast for Sunday is a 20 degree low and a 32 degree high) which means it is...
FAH-REEEKING awesome to have a laundry set up IN THE HOUSE!!!!! May I say WOO and, also, HOO?!!!?
Still have blooms, even if only one or two. From a couple of days back:
Coral Drift Rose // Bouquet Purple Dianthus
NOID Gerbera // 'Orangeola' Japanese Maple
Red Drift Rose // Scarlet Flax. No blooms, but love that green.
Debra I STILL can't believe that Japanese Maple survived & healed with what you did to it. It simply amazes me. Honestly I think you made it heal by sheer dint of will.
WOO HOO is RIGHT!!! How awesome is it not to have to worry about freezing pipes and you can do laundry without having to dress up to brave the elements?! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
I'm jealous. You're going to get the cold front and our coldest night by far for the next 10 days is tonight @ 41. From here through Xmas is 50's at night & mid 70's highs excepting on Xmas day when we are predicted for a high of 80. Shame on you La Nina!!!!
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
