    barb_k 

    1 cm equals 10 mm 

    10 cm is equal to 100 mm

    to convert from cm to mm multiply by 10

    to convert from mm to cm divide by 10

    Or else download an app!!!!

    Good night, Ainm.

    See you in a bit for tuck-ins, girls.  Getting a bit too warm for hot cocoa here, but you just let me know if you need some.

    Welcome barb_k - you're in good company altho we wish you didn't have to be here.

    Funny seyla - are you dyslexic?  I never would have thought to use a mirror.

    Ainm, you were up late tonight.  I'm here early so, hopefully, I can turn in early.

    Sleep well Ainm.  Night Seyla.  Night JO.  Night Joni (haven't seen you recently - are you over-sleeping? Wink)  Night Meece.  Night Barb_k.  Hmmm, you're in NM so Meece can tuck you in as well. 

    Yes Meece, a little warm for hot cocoa but I'll have some  tea.   Thanks.

    Meece..I became such a health conscious I'm even looking for the yogurt that says no fat.

    I eat lot of yogurt. Love Light and Lively Dannon. Its tasty and only 80 calories 0 fat.

    Just don't give me no fat no salt cottage cheese, I threw it out. YUK!

    Good Night nice People♥

    Feels like spring here in sunny NM also. But----------the wind is picking up and they say snow tonight for the mtns. Hard to believe since it is 75 degrees now. We have had such a wierd winter. nothing like usual. alot more moisture than usual, so this means more than our share of storms in spring.

    I'm here, I'm here.  Haven't been on for a couple days as getting ready to ship DD off to Mexico on a mission's trip over spring break! 

    It's been gorgeous in Southern Oregon the last few days!  Love it!

    Good evening ladies!!

    Patoo My son just told me that he will probably be staying on Ocean Blvd - Monmouth University Student Accommodation - pricey!!! But it's where HR of the company he's going to said is the usual place their overseas interns stay. I guess he might meet others his age there which would be nice as he will not know anyone.

    Hmmm - it sounds like you lot are starting to creep into Spring!!!

    Have a good weekend - Night Sheila, Meece, Patoo, Jo, Joni & Barb (and Garfield)

    Night Ainm - he'll be quite safe and, yes, will be with others his age.  I hope HR picks up the tab for accommodations.

    70's here today and also tomorrow - YAY!

    Eph3_12 - teens in my church  always have such fun and come back humbled from missions trips.  They usually go to the Dominican Republic or Jamaica.  I'm planning to go on my fifth, to Nicaragua, in November.  I've been there before, also Paraguay, Appalachia (W VA), and a Native American Bible College in NC.  You don't come back the same so if your DD hasn't been on one before, expect a different person when she comes back.  I think we should send all our teens and young adults on a missions trip so they can appreciate all we have.
