gorgeous!!! makes me remember setting up my favorite doll and having tea parties.

we have that same dancing singing santa. right now he is in grandmonkeys room. they are buddies. drive me crazy all day.

i have been without a car since monday. so i am going crazy on that bit too.

fighting off a sore throat. i think it is just allergies. i am hoping...

thanks for getting off to a good start billie. we are supposed to be in the mid 70's here today.

Kinda dreary and wet here this am. 80 % chance of rain again today but boy do we need it. I think its one of those I might go back to bed days...

I hope everyone is feeling better today. Seems like we have all had our share lately. But it makes it all ok when we have each other to lean on and get each of us through whatever the problem may be. I know I want to tell all of you that you brighten my day when I am here, and you are always in my thoughts when a depressed day keeps me away. What a wonderful bunch we have here. I am thankful for each of you.

Billie don't overdo yourself. And those pics of your son are so cute! How do they grow into such handfuls when they look so sweet? Bless their hearts. I guess they keep us wondering do they not?

What is everyones most funny, or heart felt Christmas? A special tradition, or something that was a total surprise? The one that sticks in my mind the most is right after my ex, my 3 kids and I went to Indiana. We were struggling from the move and Christmas was in sad shape. My Grandmother died on the 20th and I was so sad from that on top of not being able to get the kids anything. This elderly couple got wind of it and showed up at my door one day. They had food and presents. I bawled like a baby. I asked them how I could ever repay them. I was just in awe at what they did. She said one day you give to someone else. I wrote the newspaper about these people to let everyone know how special they were. They published it. I still have that article. I never could get their names but I hope they saw that article. So every chance I get to donate I do. I just hope it gives someone else the heart felt warmth and joy that was given to me for my kids by those Santa helpers. I know God had to of blessed them so much. I know I will never forget them!

Maybe today I will drag out some decorations and put up what I can. Blow up my 7 foot bear. He is so cute! Have a great day everyone. And thanks again for being here!

Great doll collection!

Here am late running late...
Make it a great day everyone! and I will try to do the same.

Love the dolls! Well, I did not go to Curves this morning...have no excuse..even drove past it on my way to check on the deer block...2nd one gone, so someone/thing is eating it.

I did go grocery shopping and you'll never guess what I bought..
Oh Curious could probably guess...

Hi gals,
I know i haven't been posting here very much - but I am reading.
It 's nice reading about all of your happenings!

I was bad - made some cinnamon rolls that were very good so kids and hubby asked for 2 more batches - i gained 3 lbs!
well it might be a monthly time happening too - hit and miss with that at my age now.

so now got my books out -"foods to lower the fat thermostat" and recipes for "fat burning foods" so... I'll be trying those.
got to get more active too - this has been a chilly and very wet winter so far here.
expecting "the worst windstorm in 10 yrs" tonite -
so need to get some prep done in case of power outage
our emergency kit.

so if I'm not on tomorrow it means the power is out- LOL

I hope that the storm passes by without any damage....
stay safe jo
