Gum Balls Can Be Your Friend!

By Suga

I've been told all my life, you have to use what the good Lord gives you! Well, in the summer I get the shade from the gum tree, but in the winter months I get those dreaded gum balls everywhere. I decided there had to be something I could do with them.

Suga,
I'm happy to know you are safe, also. Don't worry about sending the sweet gum balls to me if you don't have enough to go around. It can wait until next season. About getting lost ... although it was stressful, it will make a great "do you remember..." story when you've been married for many years. I love your positive attitude. I hope the flooding stops soon. We have been very fortunate where I live. Except for a prolonged drought, we've missed all of the bad weather others have endured.
Have a great day!

Just an update for those of you who have talked to me about the gum balls...... I don't know if the flood washed them away or they are late falling but for now I have found very few. I'm also dealing with some back issues but I promise I have not forgotten you! I promise! Oh and I got married to! Smiling I'm still looking
