Evening all,

I'm so glad I came in to say goodnight and see you post Shirley..you are indeed blessed with good friends! It's all overwhelming to see the amount of work needed to winterize a place and find yourself alone, you must not take too much on and injure yourself, we women think we can do everything, have the strength of a horse but we pay for it later..

I do hope Mr. Winter doesn't find your neighborhood for some time, at least until all the winterizing is done!

Cowboys, how my Roger loved his cowboys..great way for Tubby to put in a day. Here's hoping that the doctor's appt. goes well and Tubby's on his way to a full recovery.

Sounds as though you are fattening him up..he hit the jackpot when he found you Shirley...

Joyce, let's hope that it is your friend's girlfriend who is in HR, these days you need all the help you can get..we'll be praying for you tomorrow afternoon and seeing as you've worked in same field that's got to add bonus points as well.

Crissy, you sound as though you'd be level headed with a little one!!!

I had every intention of laying on the chesterfield, watching t.v. and relaxing tonight..no sooner did I have my bath did Greg call, he and Melanie were taking on a project to make touque's for Noah's hockey team..the trial one was being made tonight..they were using team hockey socks to make them...

PomPom's, lol, Greg remembered helping me make them so he called just to confirm how they were done, he and Melanie were having words about the 'how to' so he asked if I'd go over and make sure they were on the right track; I was in my jammies so just put on a jacket and over I went. Melanie has been learning how to sew, nice to see she's putting the sewing machine I bought her to work, lol, and there was Greg making team color pom-poms..got them on the right track and as I was leaving made mention that I had pom-pom makers...got the evil look as I left.

Got comfortable on the couch, must have dozed off because I missed the ending of the show I was watching..woke when the telephone rang.

It was Greg, 'what are you doing?' laying down why??

'wouldn't it be great mom if Noah had #30 on the front of the toque' guess it would I said..

'could you do it now mom? Noah would love to wear his toque tomorrow?' guess I could..lol

So over comes Melanie in her jammies, embroidered #30 and as she's leaving I ask about the team toques, said she and a bunch of girls were going to get together and make them...bit my tongue and didn't offer, nope, much too much to do here...

On the way out she says 'Kids will love Noah's toque with the number on it, guess they can take theirs to the local embroiderer, not sure how much they charge...SOOOO this time I didn't keep my mouth shut, told her to get them together and I'd do the numbers....ahhh it's for the grandchildren we do such things for..lol

Going to try this laying down one more time!!!
