Son asked me if I would make his teacher a scarf. I said yes. Then he told me he wanted it for her birthday next week.

So for I have made 5 scarves using this patterrn.

Dd2 wants me to make her a shawl. Thanks to youtube I now can do Solomon's love knot stich.

It' that time of year again. Colld and flu things are going on sale.

Anyone have any new ideas to add?

That is so cool

C4C I love autumn colors. My dd2 wants me to make a shawl for her and I want one for me too.

Christy the hat is wonderful and it's getting cold enough to dig it out again. Any ideas for the teal would be appreciated.

The teacher that Son made the hat for gave the hat to his wife and she wants Son to make her some more hats. She said she would pay him for them.

Yes Christy the teal still lives.

When I was working on my scarfs my kids got out the knitting looms and are working on making hats. Son made a baby hat for his favorit teacher's to be here at moment baby girl.

DD2 told her dad he should learn how to do something so he could join our Granny corner.

She is getting a kick out of teasing me about turning 50 soon.

I like to crochet and sew. I don't have a lot of time for either. I'm making 4 scarfs for Christmas gitrs now. I can finish one in about 3 days.

I found a pertty soft fuzzy teal yarn for one of the scarfs. I'm going to burn the yarn.

Yesterday I got some Carron simply soft yarn. I might not go back to any other yarn. I love it. So easy to work with and really soft.

And to Mrs.S

For Christmas Dh got me slippers that come midway up my legs. Don't know how I lived without them.

We use a kerosene heater. While I'm not all that happy useing it as long as it above 15* it keeps the house comfortable. We put new windows in the house about 4 years ago and that helped a lot in the bedrooms.

I like the idea of a heating pad warming up the bed. As long as I can keep my feet warm I'm good. I would take it out before sleeping. I used to laugh at Mom for waking up with overly hot feet. Now it's not so funny.

# 1 prep is a poster of Hawaii. I get it out about the 1st week of February .

This is not seeds but it looks interesting

A man in my church is starting a seed bank to help the people of the Congo.He has trained people in how to compost and now has master composters training others.They are developing irrigation systems.

What he needs now is seed.He will take any seed new or left-overs.

If like me you are going through your seeds and find out that you have 2 of the same melon seeds or after you plant your garden and have left-over seed a padded envelope a few stamps and some time will help a family feed themselves.

This will not be a hand out but a hand up.

If you have any extra seed or want to help out pm me and I will get you a address to send the seeds to.

What is needed is warm weather plants.

garden soybeans

squash

pumpkins

all types of beans

tomatoes

melons

sweet corn.

No flowers&ornamentals or gourds.

Thanks

Are they kidding?

My problem with hand sanitizers is that I HATE the feel and smell of them. They just feel so ICKY.

I love blackberry tea, and saltines and Pepsi is what I used for morning sickness.

Has anyone used sweet oil for earaches?

Pineapple juice.

A friend told me about this when Son had strep throat.

I'm going to add Simply Saline- nasal mist.http://www.simplysaline.com/

Maybe a netti pot for each person.

I can go from a sinus infection/ head cold to bronchitis that trigers my asthma in less than 24 hours. With threats of being put in the hospital I have to balance using OTC meds for a day or two with a month of asthma meds and the HATED Albuterol. As long as I keep it out of my chest I don't need asthma meds. 2 of my babies are the same way.

Christy I have used ginger in the past, forgot about that.

Vineger and hydrogen peroxide for cleaning would work for me.

Electrolytes- as long as I can get them to drink it. When Son was sick last time he would not drink Gatorade ,said it hurt .

We do have and use vitamins every day.Will get more vit c.

I'm starting over with my flu box and am thinking about what I need.

peppermint candy-helps tummies

phyisium husk/soluble fiber-got this from C4C helps with diarrhea

chamomile tea

gloves/masks

lipbalm- ALDI"S had them for .50 last year

Charman tp-ultra soft

Kleenex

Ibuprofen

toothbrushes- change after being sick

Listerine

thermometers/ covers- each kid has thier own

disenfectant spray

small trash bags-I use Walmart bags, great size for used tissue and can tie handles together to toss out

caugh drops-DH likes Halls

Theraflu cold and sore throat-used this for the 1st time a few weeks ago and I liked it.DH can't use because of meds.

Gatorade

What should I add?

The 5th Doctor from Dr Who said that celery is a excellent restorative.

This is great info I like everything but the fish.

CDT that looks great to put in Yogert. My kids like it that way but I find to buy the cereal is expensive, and you don't get much.

Going to try the others too, I may be looking at unempolyment so I might have a lot more time to make things.
