Yes, why not wait until after Turkey day to do anything Christmas ? That is MY plan.

1/2 hour. That's how long it took to fix my phone line. After seven weeks out. The first couple of weeks I thought it was my fault. A faulty phone. Then I borrowed a plug in and realized it was not. So I started calling. Ran my cell right out of minutes and had to fix that. I am feeling slayed.

Yes, why not wait until after Turkey day to do anything Christmas ? That is MY plan. My turkey day is in October but I want to get them up before the coldest weather hits soon. I took them out and untangled them...that's as far as I got. Tina, so was it fixed by them or you? They should reimburse you for all those weeks.

Yea, I agree Tina..you need to be paid for the time you could not use your phones.
If course you are right about the weather, Sunny. Sorry for not thinking of that.
I can smell the garlic on my dinner. It is in the oven. I love 1 pan dinners that I put in the oven. I can deal with less work for a meal.

The cold weather is why I went ahead and started with decorating. Of course we don't get as cold as Sunny or Junie but it's a lot easier to do it when it's 60° rather than 30. I like one pan dishes too. Winter is the perfect time to eat nice, thick food out of a bowl. PTL makes me think of Tammy Faye and Jim Bakker

Gracious me, Sheri... Sunny, I was roasting cut up potatoes and boneless country ribs...... I put butter, and then garlic salt/black pepper/parsley on the potatoes and roast until done..I put garlic salt and pepper on the ribs ( pork) and sometimes, I add BBQ sauce at the end.....the last 10 minutes or so...tonight I added the BBQ sauce.......I had roasted carrots as well. Tomorrow Valarie, the kids and I are going to a few craft fairs. I am really looking forward to it. Sweet dreams, Tina...And sweet dreams to everyone else. Nite-nite

It cleared up enough that I was able to travel after lunch. I took the grandkids to do their Christmas shopping at the dollar store. They wanted to buy everything for themselves...oh well, I survived the day.

Hello !
We went to 2 of the 3 craft fairs today. Our kids wanted everything as well, but were pacified with just a few things,(and some chips) which was nice. I got a locket for Valarie, and a few small things for the kids. Grandma got some home grown black walnuts so.... ....Waldorf Salad, here we come !

Good morning!
Cancelled school..........Really I used to like when that happened for the kids...but then none of us had to get out in the yucky weather if it was. I hope BY is able to get out and make a snowman.
Today is a haircut and then picking up chicken and dumplings kind of day. Henry's s School is having a fund raiser.

Junie, we've got a few more craft fairs to get to before Christmas. Aubry loves looking at the stuff.
Seems like school has started cancelling early this winter. Supposed to be in the 60's here this week.
Our Christmas parade has been postponed due to rain.

It was
How wonderful to mop yourself into a corner..even a few minutes rest can be a wonderful thing.
They were wonderful! Homemade by all accounts. Then there was green beans with ham, slaw with vinegar and oil dressing, a dinner roll and a chocolate chip cookie. They were homemade as well. And yes, very comforting indeed. Thanks so much.
Kitchen is clean and groceries from today are put away. I will head to bed soon.
Nite nite.

My plans for today have been derailed, the roads are too slippery yet to go to town. I hope to try again for tomorrow.
I think I'll fix up my Christmas cards today.

I had planned on wrapping Christmas gifts today so I could then send my Grands in Virginia their Christmas gifts.. But nope..watching my Grands instead as their cousin has a fever and is not going to school. Her mom has an appointment and so the other Grandma has to keep her. Val did not want to expose her 4 to whatever their cousin has, and I do not blame her. Sad to be me though.
I am off to make linch..TTYAL : wavy:

Sorry for the change in plans Junie...but I am glad that the grands won't be exposed to a virus before your Thanksgiving party.
What kind of stormy weather is ahead Tina?
I finally got my Christmas cards signed out and stamps applied. Now to get to the post office tomorrow...fingers crossed.

We have two storms coming in, a bomb cyclone coming from north California and another coming in from the Pacific. Expecting lots of rain and snow in the upper regions. At least one of our ski resorts opened last weekend and more opening this weekend. The rain is much needed and welcome (for fire reasons).

I agree, the mixture is much needed....by the whole state. I hope it happens for you, but that the storm decided not to tag along.
We have rain, heavy winds, storms and possible tornado 's coming tonight. Gracious..I think we could all do without winter.....

Thanks Tina ! According to radar, we are thinking that if the bad storms are not here in an hour or so, they will miss us. Golly I sure hope they do miss us.
