It's a Monday!
Morning Vickie,
Hope you have a wonderful day. . . I'm busy these days (what else is new), but wanted to stop by and say hi to all my friends here!
Hugs, Laureen

Good Morning Vickie, Laureen, and all to follow,
It's always a joy to check in here throughout the day to see how everyone is, even if it's a quick check in.
Last night, I had a 25% off entire purchase at a craft store, and was crazy enough to go right after 6:00 pm, when the coupon time started. Well, they didn't have my little wooden letters for my grandson's name, BUT, they had yarn in the colors for Michigan state on sale. So, I got yarn that normally sells for $3.89 for $2.24 a skein. I went to two of their stores in search for the train letters, and cleaned both out of green and white Red Heart Soft. Now, I have to pack it for the move. Argh. I couldn't resist the bargain, because I'm making a twin size bedspread for my older grandson, Lincoln, for his fourth birthday in August.
Today has me heading to the Salvation Army to drop stuff off. Then, more purging and packing.
Hugs and prayers,
Trish

Hello again! Got that boy off to school. Been to the post office to buy stamps for my Christmas cards. Now I have a full morning ahead of me. So many little chores that I've been putting on hold for awhile. But first I have to have a hot shower. I'm still so sleepy this morning.
The good news is that I found a carpenter to go look at my staircase banister at the house in Nac and hopefully he can repair it so it doesn't "wobble" anymore. I sure hope so. Closing is set for 2 and a half weeks from now. Please God, don't let this deal fall through!
Yesterday I got my Christmas dishes put out. Now I'm sorry that I didn't pack more of my Christmas decorations to bring here with me. I know it's silly. Benny is still too young to care much about decorations, and Lord knows, he's into everything these days. But still, I miss my little snowmen. They always make me smile.
Not much else new to report. I'm making some progress with the unpacking. Yesterday I finally got most of the clothes put away, and stored 3 suitcases in the attic. I wish I had brought my half bookcase with us instead of putting it in storage. My office stuff is just piled in boxes everywhere. Hmmmm. Maybe we can get it when we go back for closing.
I'd better go hop in the shower and get moving. It's already 10 a.m. Where does the time go?
Love you all!
Vickie
Morning all!
Getting ready to bake some banana nut bread...for some reason my family begs for it as Christmas gifts. Got out my Christmas cards trying to get a jump on them. Not much else is going on. The sun came out today I better enjoy it cause tomorrow rain is coming again.
Thoughts and prayers for all,
Debbie
