    True - I always give thanks when I wake up and even more thanks if all joints are more pain free than notTongue out

    And true - I can accept compliments graciously - I'll take all I can get!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Come on, surely SOMEONE has a good bread pudding recipe?

    Thanks for the cookies, MissS and yes, I added Marilyn in for a special prayer.

    The next person is bracing for a winter storm - we have one coming in around 3pm and lasting into tomorrow - hope everyone has a safe trip home today.

    Not really, we have lots of fog and rain today and cold temps but its not freezing yet.

    MissS, give me your cookies!  stick em up.  Marilyn will be in my prayers so sorry for the loss of your friends husband.  It is so sad when things like that happen around this time of year. Another friend lost his wife and have several kids ages 4 and up.  It hard to get your mind around all this stuff sometimes.  Even though I know there will be life after death and much better than here, its just we miss them so.

    the next person decided due to economic conditions that they and their spouse will be get each other gifts this year ( we did) but we got a new house and that is our gift.
