Martica - I am so happy for you.

Bren and Yvonne, I am sorry for your loss, my prayers are with you.

Glenda, I liked your mixed media. I need the guts to step out.

Deb, fingers crossed you you hear something soon. If not there is something better out there for you.

Sorry I have been lurking so much. I had jury duty this week , luckily I did not get chosen. Today has been wet and cold so arthritis is flared up can hardly move. Wish all of you a great weekend.

If i would have seen it,, it would have been in The cart. LOL

Hey sweet things. Haven't slept yet, so I thought I'd put the coffee up and made some low calorie pumpkin bread.....enjoy!!!!!

Someone.....CRS!!!! Asked about the ground chicken recipes I found the other day. Here they are:

I made the 3rd recipe but omitted the cream cheese and added a bit more parmesan. They were very wet, but I was able to place globs of the recipe and baked in toaster oven....they were flavorful and not dry. Would also be good simmered in tomato sauce....maybe some pasta

OK....sippin java and payin bills

Good morning, a nice rainy say here in Florida and I am going to relax and scrap a little later.

Heather I am finding it hard to step-out of my norm but I am trying. I definitely need to go for more classes.

Anna, I love trying new things.

Good afternoon all. Still praying for all the prayers that we haven't seen the answers to yet.

I would like to request two prayers as well. First and most importantly...my dad was having pre-op tests for an operation he was supposed to have in about 3 weeks and they found that his main arteries are all blocked around 80% so they are taking him in next week for surgery.

Secondly our company announced a re-org yesterday (nice way to say downsize) and my department is one that is going to be heavily affected. I knew that they were going to slowly move folks offshore but we were under the impression we had a few months. Goes into effect mid February. Please pray that the outcome will not only be in Gods best interests but that I see it as such as well. I have no backup if I'm one of the two-thirds downsized. I'm a bit scared even though I know I shouldn't be.

Hoping everyone has a beautiful Saturday.

Bren, i have been praying for your job situation for a while. I will continue to pray. May our Lord bring You peace to leave this in His hands.

May God bless each Of You.
Sweet dreams

Bren sweetie will be praying for you .......Hello to everyone....

Just came to say that I put pics of the snow globes in my gallery today for anybody interested!

My Goodness all the things going on here-
I am sending Positive energy for those who are sick to get well and for those who have lost a loved one and their families to have peace and know those gone are in a better place
Positiveness for the job situations too that we can all keep the incomes we have or find a new one with what is needed! The way prices of things go up for everything, I don't see how anybody can afford to not have an income of some kind!
Sending Big Hugs and Happiness to You All Ladies! I am freezing my buns off with this continued cold weather here Times like this I wish we had electric heat so I could crank it up! Take Care Ladies

Hello to all you beautiful ladies on this beautiful Sunday.

Morning Ladies, brought by some triple chocolate cake to have with your morning coffee. Also dropped off some blueberry muffins for those that want to eat a little healther.

Have a wonderful day everyone, off to visit with the MIL who is coming down to visit today.

Hi ladies.

Gosh I missed coming in here today....hope all is well with everyone.... I was busy making a gift for my husband's nephew and wife, they just had a baby boy last week.

I hardly ever buy matching flowers I try to do with what I have. I can't spend like a used to a few years back....

Good morning sweet ladies. Well, it is Monday and here I am at work. Spent most of my weekend being totally lazy. Hoping that I would have renewed strength and health for the work week. I must say that I needed it. Now I have to make myself get in gear and kick some rear here at work. Not feeling it yet but it is not 9:00 yet. Drinking my Pepsi Max and taking the time to tell you sweet ladies hello.
May this be a blessed day for each of you.
love and hugs

Hello all!
Hope your weekend was great. We had a beautiful warm Saturday 58F and yesterday it totally dropped now it is 12F.... brrrr!!!!

Bren will be thinking about you....

***REMEBER POSTAGE IS GOING UP ON SUNDAY***

Sitting here at work and are so bored, just want to go home and watch movies in this cold weather.

If only we were ladies of leisure..... I would have loved to have been able to stay home today. With the finacial means to back it up of course.

Thank God I buy those forever stamps. It seems like every time I turn around, those blasted stamp prices keep rising. It's time to go back to the poney express.

Thanks for the chocolate cake Shana. It was delish.

Hi ladies...

Catching up.......

Bren prayers for your dad and for your continued employment!!!!

I was talking to Camille and besides all she has gone through, she has Castleman's Disease. It's a rare cancer-like condition. Well, she had a scan and they see 'activity' now in her colon! She will have a colonoscopy to see what is going on. The areas that had been biopsied in the past year have gotten smaller. How much is she supposed to go through! Been sad all weekend. And before she got the brain aneurysm she had hernia repair for the third time! She has a new hernia in a very uncomfortable place and will probably need surgery! When is enough enough......it's just so much to put on one person.

Linny so sorry to hear about Camille, will be thinking about you all!!! Hugs!

Thanks Yvonne and Linny and hope you are raring to go now Lorna. How come you didn't save me a piece of that cake Deb? I tell you - some people.

Linny, think of how wonderfully strong your sister is? I cannot imagine why all these things have been placed on her but look how many lives she's changing? I don't even know her personally and I have more respect for her than the average person I've met. My prayers are with her and you both and I will hope that God chooses to cure her of EVERYTHING and make her whole.

We are supposed to know by the end of the week how much reduction is going to occur.

Love to all.
