Hi, I will add the fair pictures in about a week. Right now I'm busy with craft fair things and it is next Saturday. I've cut several rice bags out and need to get them sewn as well as the inner bag. I can't lift my sewing machine so have to wait for someone to bring it up stairs and get it on the dining table. I also need to get my ornaments made and sent soon. I really will put them in here as soon as I have more time.

Jeepers, I hope things work out for your mom. Sometimes there is just nothing else for some of us to take. I use to get Z-Pak's and then they don't do those any more. Why, I have no idea. If I remember right, my MIL use to take a lot of Prednisone too for the same reason, rheumatoid arthritis. I do know next time I go in for a sinus infection I will be very careful and tell them I don't want to take that stuff again. My bones are old and I have weak bones anyway and to give me something that weakens them more, no thinks. Am I the oldest one on here??? I hope things go well for you DIL.

Momo, I am so glad to see you again. I know I should have been in here ages ago but I just haven't done it. I did take things to the fair this year, but not nearly as many as I have in the past. If anyone would like to see what I did, I can post pictures. I'm waiting to see who will enter yet before the 30th. Snowmom

This is very interesting. I have been taking something for high Cholesterol for wow, let me see if I can think that far back I think it was about 30 years give or take. The doctors don't tell you everything at all. I have had sinus infection for a long time and just trying to get over another one. Well, my back started to hurt bad so like a good patient, I went to my chiropractor yesterday and guess what. I am not wearing a brand new white belt and will be wearing it for 4 to 6 week. Yes, a fracture in my back. I coughed to hard I guess. But, it was because of what I too and have taken for the last several times I had sinus infection, or was it. When I said I had taken 5 days of Prednisone, my doctor. looked at me and told me it will eat the bones. Ok now, I ask you, why would a doctor give me something that will damage my bones when they know I have Osteoporosis? Man I can't figure these doctors out at all. So next time they say something about Prednisone I will say NO. I got Doxycycline to, but the Prednisone just is not going to happen again. Now, I think I will be asking more questions when I go to the doctors.

Thank you for the pictures. So, now we are three doing the ornament exchange. Midnightmom and mommaoto3boys and myself. Hope others join too. Great idea Midnightmom. Thanks. I will need to have the names by the 30 if at all possible.

Good morning everyone. I know I am so late with this and please forgive me again. I have been sick for the past two weeks, sinus infection. I did something I knew was wrong to do. I went outside without a jacket on as well as nothing on my head. It was chilly outside but, I wanted to get the leaves off the decks. I did and wished I had put a jacket on. I have been working on crafts as we had a show the first Saturday of October and it went well. We have another one coming up the first Saturday in November so have to get some things made for that one too. Anyway, I just haven't been up to doing a lot. With all of that said, it is really late but we can still do this. By now most if not all of you know the rules for the Ornament Exchanges. Message me with your name and address as soon as possible and I will put the list together and message it all to you. Then, make an ornament and sent one to each person on the list. So, please message me withing the next week or two as I will be out of town for a while after the next craft show. Just have fun making them and then look forward to getting the other ones. If you are able to, please mail them before or shortly after Thanksgiving. Any questions add to this thread. Snowmom

It has been some time since I have been in here. Momo, I am so sorry for your loss. Please let me know if there anything I can do for you? I will be praying for you and your family.

Happy Belated Birthday Dee. I hope this was the best one yet.

Thank you all for the comments on the house. It is really so nice, it has a split entry so there are stairs for us to use for exercise. Nancy's office is down stairs and an extra bedroom is down there. I use the little bedroom upstairs for my computer. The room is so small there is no way you could have more than a twin bed and dresser in there. Then, I have the bedroom next to it and Nancy has the master bedroom and bath for herself. There is a bathroom down stairs and it is larger than both of the ones up stairs. We are not all unpacked yet, but that is ok. It will get done little at al time. to all.

Just thought I would come in and say Hi to everyone and also to say Merry Christmas to you all. Oh yes, HappyGirl, now Joyfilled, yes I do remember you. How are you doing?? Mother, good to be coming in sometimes. Becca_Anne, good to see you here too. To everyone. Merry Christmas to everyone.

Wow, this is very interesting. I just shared it to Face book. We have a jar of garlic in our refrigerator right now. I think I am going to check to see if it says where it is from. Thank you for sharing this video. I had no idea some garlic came/comes from China.

Littlesister, hope your family is getting better by now. It is interesting so you should see what they have. Becca-Anne, so good to see you here. We need to get together on the Jones side. Swap some stories maybe even. Homesteader, you will have some good info from the sounds of it. Be sure to get everything you want to know from your mother too. I regret not questioning my dad more years ago when I was in school. That was a very long time ago. Ann, I know that at one time, I'm thinking it was you, were able to help me with the Lee side of my family. Of course I haven't done anything these past several months but, hope to be able to work on it later on this winter. Have a great day everyone.

Sorry I am really late but Happy Belated Birthday. Glad to hear you had a good day.

Thank you Jeepers. Of course it isn't a real tree, with all of my allergies and stuff, we just don't put up a real one. Midnightmom, I love the ornament, thank you so much. It is on the tree. Thank you to everyone who joined in the exchange this year. It has been mentioned to me that starting next year we need to make sure that the year is someplace on the ornament or a paper taped to it or something. That way we know what year we got it. Some of us are getting older and sometimes don't remember all those dates. I think I am probably the oldest one in Mrs. S. Want to see some pictures of our home?? The tree is on the other side of this wall. Of course this is part of the kitchen. Part of our living room. More of the living room We have pillows and throws for those who want to us them.

Ok, so I am the late one, I got one from mommato3boys on Saturday. Thank you so much, love it. Looking forward to getting Midnightmom's. It will probably come today. I am going to try to get a picture in here with this. YES!! It worked. This is our tree, and you see part of the kitchen to the right and a bit of the diining-room to the left. The wall behind is a wall of cupboards.

We have company but wanted to let you all know I have gotten 3 and I love them all. I couldn't find the ice to send with the melted snowman.

Hi, I had mine sent on November 19th. My niece took them to the P.O. for me. We didn't get our mail today so not sure if I got one or not. Wow, that was fast mommato3boys, was it all in one piece or had it gotten broken??

This Long Haulers is very interesting and more people should be reading this. I have a nephew who thinks he may have had it in December after reading and hearing so much about it.

Good morning, Just wondering is anyone is doing genealogy now? Also, has anyone heard from Momo lately? I don't think she has posted for a while. Momo, if you see this, please let us know you are doing ok. Or PM me, please. Snowmom

Good Morning, I have saved some of the lids for several years and reuse them on Jelly but not on anything else. Homesteader, I understand your mom liking gravy, I do too. I also understand the need to sell things. When we moved this summer, we got rid of a LOT of stuff. I'm still sorting and getting rid of things. Give your mom a hug for me.

Ladies, I made a mistake in my zip code, put the 6 where I put 4 and then the the 4 where I put the 6. So sorry. I hope I'm not to late with this. You know, new place, new address, new zip code.

Just thought I had better get this thread ready as I know someone will be sending the ornaments out soon. Just add that you have sent them out and when you get them. Snowmom

Good morning everyone, I just sent the address list out so hope you all got it. I hope you all have a good time making and getting these new ornaments. Now, I need to get busy and make mine. Have a great day.

Good morning everyone. Thank you to those who are joining. We have, Midnightmom, Pauline, Momma2threeboys, Annarchy and myself. Thank you all for joining and as soon as I get an address from Annarchy I will get the list out to everyone. Enjoy making them and now I also need to get busy making mine. I'm still in the unpacking mode. Snowmom

I really have missed being here and I will try my best to check in a LOT more often. I had been out to eat with a class mate in August, then in September there were 5 of us classmates eating out together. It was really good to be able to visit with all of them. I do have everything they say to stay away from the covid though. Heart, I am on my 3rd pace maker, kidney problems stage 3 kidney disease, COPD, never smoked a day in my life, Gary did. I have diabetes and a lot of allergies and of course asthma. So I am just careful who I am around. My one son lives in Fargo and he comes most weekends. There is also another guy who has called me mom for years who I see once in a while as well as my niece who helped with the move who has gotten some groceries for us as well as our pastor and some times he brings one of his kids with him. So I do see others. It is just I don't want to take any chances in a store. Thank you Littlesister for the prayers. Snowmom
