Wiz -- Said a prayer for your niece

Soxmom -- Have fun!

Jenn -- Anything that you bake is homemade, right?

Tricia -- Hoping the compression stocking helps. I would like to stay away from another med. I only have to wear a knee high one at this time on one leg. If it doesn't help, then I will then need more tests. Surgery was also mentioned as an option. Have fun with your daughter.

I need to go pick some prescriptions at the drug store and then I plan on relaxing. I also want to start grading some papers so I will have them done by next Tuesday. Notice I said I want to start; I will probably keep putting them off even though I know it would be easier if I just read and graded five per day:o.

Hope you all have a good day tomorrow!

Morning all. I am about to get Jim up and start cleaning up the house and throw a few loads of laundry in. The boys gf's are descending upon us tonight. I also need to make my side dishes for tomorrow. Then, maybe, just maybe if there is time, I'll start on my faux stain glass piece I am making for my cuz. I have the outline done and need to trace it out with faux lead paint. I got two blankets done last night and one cut. whoohoo!

Have a good day everyone and a blessed Thanksgiving if I don't see you tomorrow. :hug:

I got all my errands and running around done yesterday. I don't plan on venturing out today or Friday. Anybody here brave the crowds on Black Friday? I have to admit that meeting a few girlfriends for breakfast at 4 AM and then going shopping sounds sorta fun......if I only had the energy and the money! :rolleyes:

I plan on making some cookies today. I probably won't prepare my side dishes until tomorrow since we aren't having supper until 6 PM. We usually have lunch but DS is going to GF's parents for lunch tomorrow.

I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable holiday. If you're traveling please be careful. I'll be home tomorrow so I'll be in and out here. :grouphug:'s for everyone!

Sox,

I love reading about your activities with the little ones. :) It brings back memories of when I was a room mother. :D I'm so glad you get to have this time with your kids while they're growing up. :hug:

Hello all. Well have been out got christmas cards and a few bits then back lunch and hairdresser have had a new colour its calld black cherry looks lovely. But as per usual I'm tired now. Big huggs and lots of love Jackie. xxxxxxxxx :hug::grouphug::hug::grouphug:

Supermoo, I just dyed my hair. I mixed a dark blonde with a light brown and then applied it. It was too dark so I applied a dark blonde over that and now I am Ok. It's still darker than I like but in time it will lighten up. I let the girl next door highlight my hair a month ago and WOW did it turn too blonde! LOL I am naturally a darker brown so I match everywhere! My husband would say the carpet matches the drapes. lol

Hi ventured out to see friends for a little earler. They were a little surprised she thinks I am bright enough for the top of the cherry triffle :eek: :D Her hubby remarked about matching coller and cuffs He got a sharp slalp off her and my hubby :p Hope your plans are going well and Jim is ok. My hubby is a Jim as well. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL and my your coming year be full of all the very best of things. xxxxxxx:hug::grouphug::grouphug::hug: Love Jackie xxxx

LOL! The dying of the hair thing reminds me of my brother's first comment when he saw my hair for the first time. He looked at my dad and said, "Your daughter has purple hair." in a tone of resignation. :D Yep, he's the Dean Martin of our group.

But they are the ones that pointed out that I do have a small bit (very small, lol) of my mom's olive complexion, so look very different with dark hair.

Hoping everyone has a safe Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I am thankful to have all of you. :hug:

Happy Thanksgiving! Like Sandy, I'm so thankful for all my friends here at NT. Hope you all have a wonderful day. Don't forget to wear your "buffet" pants today! :cool:
