You can tell colleg girl was home, she decorated the inside of the house, including poor old Duke dog
She's about to...55
Awe, poor Duke! He does not look happy!
Night everyone!
Sleep tight!
Happ, if we have that for a state tree, I may have missed the boat..
Here is a link to one I saw in N carolina..

I have seen the other types, but not the old fashioned one.. Maybe I am not looking in the right places?
Great T ball, Debra! Someone was looking for how to mount the Ts to make a ball but I've forgotten where that was. Shoot.
Yup, those are the kind of dogwoods we have here.
oh Linda, those are so beautiful!
Debra you must not have any indoor cats. :0) If I hung that T ball here right now it would last about 2 minutes before the "kids" would have all the moss pulled off it. Never meant to have indoor kitties, but it is so cold here that we put in a pet door and they can come and go as they please. Mostly they stay. :0P They will be so spoiled by Spring.
I wish I could have an Indoor cat, I am lucky to have Duke inside. Joe does not like cats, and the neighborhood toms all love me. I am pretty sure that is why I have so many furgranbabys, all my children got a cat as soon as they moved out.
Off to the freezing windy cold, time to go to work, leotards, long johns and boots today. Bah!
Oh, A couple years ago College girl and I had a wreath making contests. here is mine.
I will post hers tommorrow.
Last night Joe and I had a cooking throw down. I will post his and mine and u all can vote for presentation or ( looks) since you can't taste it thru the putor.
Luv ya all//// Shiver/ sseeee u later!
Beautiful blooms and wreath ... like the old ceramic tree too. I have one that's almost identical.
Eveyone have a productive day!
EXTRA ! EXTRA...LOL READ ALL ABOUT IT!
The old woman dahtzu had her very first GREAT GRAND Daughter today. Born @ Wake Med. Center @ 12:45 weighing in @ 8 lb. That lil beauty is 20 in. long with a head full of hair. Her name is Kaydince.
You can just bet Ammama is grinning and so proud at this posting.
Signing off now wishing all warm sweet dreams.
Hugs, Faye
Congrats Faye!!!
Awww congratulations Faye!!!
Faye ..... my empathy goes out to you if you have Fibro. I've had it for about 15+ years now. It's no fun, everything but your hair hurts!!! My pain management doctor put me on 90mg of Celebrex a day, and that has helped a lot. Still feel bad sometimes, but not nearly like I use to!!!!!!
Congratulations Grandma Faye! ^_^ Make sure you post pictures please? How many Grandson's do you have?
Congrats, dahtzu! Wonderful news! ^_^
Faye you're not old!!! Congrats on the baby!
Isn't that one of the Grandest Christmas / Birthday presents you've ever received, Faye? Congrats, Dear Heart :) Have you got to hold her yet?
Amaryllis "Aphrodite" opened today and has two huge blooms on a very short stalk. We're talking seriously huge here at 8" tall and wide.
Here's how easytogrowbulbs.com describes her...
Named for the Greek goddess of love and beauty, Aphrodite is a gorgeous double amaryllis, with a blush pink wash on the petal tips, blood red veining and a razor-edge red border. Big blooms flaunt multiple swept-back petals for a full, open look.
Short stalk huh?? Been feeding it that alcoholic mixture I keep reading about?? :0)
Who me? Not a drop...lol
Faye what a wonderful Christmas present you got! Congrats.
Debra, http://www.statesymbolsusa.org/Missouri/treeDogwood.html
Well I stopped to see Debra last night on my way home from OKCity. She is such a sweetie. Debra was at work and I test drove a new car, while she had to work...rofl, have to admit there were things I REALLY liked about that car. DH is whining constantly about me getting a new car, I don't want one yet! So we will see. Can't say I am overly happy with my old car, except I just made the last payment, I need some recovery time from payments, geezhs. DH doesn't think the old car will last long enough and I drive so much...I don't know, I hate decisions. I need to win the lottery. I would of been fine if a deer hadn't totaled out my old car. It was paid for and was running good when a deer totaled it on New Years Eve coming home from work! I was crying when I called DH and he said why are you crying? sob...sob....because I didn't want to buy a new car....sob...sob.... The current car has not been a great car, has had issues....geez!
Anyway it was great to see you again Debra even if it was just for a few minutes. I will be coming back thru after the 1st of the year and I will plan it better if it works out for you....
Oh yes, calling for freezing rain! so glad I am back in Missouri!
Beautiful bloom fruity! Still haven't dug my out of the garage yet.....need to do that.
Forgot to tell you my latest escaped. Well this morning I take the company Van to the filling station in my little town and decide to leave it running because it is bitter cold and takes forever to warm that thing up! Now this is the first time I have ever done that. Welllllllllllllllllllll, I must of hit the door lock so the van is running at the gas station totally locked! I had to call work and get one of the guys to drive 45 minutes one way to unlock the door! The guy that owns the gas station went out and lowered the gar prices, came back in and said I did that for you because I figured you will have to refill it by the time they get here with the key.....everyone is a comic... ;) I told myself it could of been worse I could of been in OKCity when I did it. Course everone I knew came into the filling station this morning.....so far the guy at work hasn't told anyone but I am just waiting..... I figured I would never live this one down!
LOL joyce, ( sorry) You know that happened to me while I was showing a Jeep Cherokee.. the car ran out of gas before the pop a lock guy could come .. :P~ Home on lunch, talk to you all tonight.
PS: I am IN LOVE with that Aphrodite... see it does love spells over the internet.
"Aphrodite" Wow, she's beautiful.
Ammama here to hope all of you are staying warm. Think I could stand the temp. if the wind wouldn't blow.
You are so right, Kaydince is the very best gift for Christmas and Birthday. I did not get a chance to hold her, lol so many people in line and I wanted to beat the late traffic going home. I will enjoy holding her when it is only my reaching for her. I am so selfish.
Isn't is strange, even with a red face and a lop sided head, they're still beautiful?
Precious, Faye! ^_^
Thank you Carole. Hope you are having a good day, pain free and warm.
Yes,thank you, I am. Hope the same for you?
That's one very proud daddy in those pictures. ^_^
Awe, she is a beauty! Thanks for sharing!
How wonderful! A beautiful Family, Faye.
Super duper congratulations Faye
Beautiful! Has that bloomed before or is it new?
I need some eggnog. :)
Carole it had bloomed before Joy brought it and was just sending out an extension from that stalk. We weren't sure if it would come to anything, but there are 2 buds. This one and one other that should open in a few more days. I have it on my kitchen table so I can see it and I think it may be a little cold up next to the window.
Congrats on getting it to bloom again for you. Seems a lot of times that doesn't happen. :(
Hello everyone, snowing here this morning early and now it is raining...oh so cold. Hope all of you are blessed with warmth and happiness.
Want to see if I owe Angel Trumpets to anyone for postage.
