Hi y_all
Got to go to church in a little while I posted 1 photo. Will do more later. Just stopping to say hello right now. I am on Msg. with an old friend.

TTYL

I find it really helpful when you put links in Pat (example the one you put in for Miek's farewell messages).

- Judy

Well, here's another link, Jude!  It's to the discussion we're having on the "Purpose Driven Life" down in our Book Nook.

Come and join us!

Judy we are redoing the vynal in the kitchen, hall and the bathroom.  Out powder room is still good.  We heat with wood and as a result there is a film of dust over the walls.  The bathroom needs painting and the kitchen needs freshnening up.  I want to paint the stairs too.  

I checked the posts for Meiks and found dhe has responded,  She saw what everyone has written.  

By the way Judy.  I may be coming down to pick up mother (if John doesn't do it) If you like the girls can come and help with your tree?  They would love that.  Christmas is theur favourite season,  Concert practises, choirs, snow, lights, the nativity scenes.  All of it.
I guess they take after their mom.  It is my favourite too.

Well I am tired early tonight, I am heading to bed.

Night all

Hello dear family,

All this talk of teeth and toothaches, drilling, pulling, cleaning.
I will tell you a truth about me.  Maybe more than you want to know.  hehe      I've had false teeth since I was 16.  I was the only one my age, and I had all my friends waiting to see if I'd spit them out so they could laugh at me.   I can't imagine them doing that to a 16 year old now, but they sure did then.  Pulled them all, and on the last day, in went my teeth.
I hated them for a long time, but whenever I hear of teeth problems, I don't mind them one bit.   Of course, I don't have the same pair. LOL

Joyce, you always have the kindest things to say.  You are just so sweet, my dear sister.   I surely do hope that my life and love for Jesus is uncluttered, because He is most important and I often don't feel "uncluttered".  And when I find clutter, you can be sure it won't be long until I realize I am out of balance again.    It is good of you to say something to remind me to hold on to this as my very life.

Jane, I just ordered the book, Purpose Driven Life.  I know you have it now, from the library, but I forgot to ask you tonight where you are in it.  I'll see you tomorrow, and ask you.

 My care is making a whining noise.  I've recently had a timing belt replacement and water pump, so can't be those.  I'm hoping it'll be a fan belt or something inexpensive.  I take it in at 9 in the morning.  If it isn't ready by the women's group, my dear Jane will come and pick me up.  

 Sonifo, love on those kids like they would be all grown tomorrow.  It goes so fast.  We understand if you have to spend less time here.  Family always comes first.  That's why God made mamas and daddys.

 Are we talking Christmas and trees already??  Did I miss something?  Judy are you putting up your tree soon?

  Gotta go and get cat fed and get a snuggled in for the night.  Hope everyone sleeps well tonight.  

 

I finally have a chance to come on and read all the posts for today.  Thanks to Pat, Iain & Papa John.  

Ria, we have outdoor markets here on the island and farmers sell their fresh produce, range eggs, homebaked goodies, etc.  Some are only on the weekend, others are more commercial and open all week.  

Thanks for the tip about the subwoofers Larry.  Will look into it in the new year.  Love to listen to music on the computer.  Bought a Sony last year and had them hook things up....not very mechanical.  Works well and I am pleased with Windows XP.  Got rid of Windows Messenger tho' as it caused no end of problems with advertising, etc.

Still waiting for the buyer to make a final committment on my Condo.  They wanted to go over everything and have until Nov. 10 to put another deposit in place.  Guess it will be okay, but makes me nervous waiting.  Two other parties are interested if the deal falls through, but who knows if they will still be around.  

I am still waiting for the Bible Study book to come from the library as do not want to buy anything right now.  I was going to join the study at our church, but will not have time if spending the holidays packing instead of hanging Christmas Lights.  

I am reading an interesting  book (fiction) from our Church Library by Robert Whitlow.  It is called 'The List' and is a really inspiring Christian  book.  All about how money can cause so much damage in people's life.  A very nice read.  Folks who like John Grisham or Frank Peretti will like this book...

Will go and check out the other things now and look for Marilyn's picture.  God Bless and pleasant dreams.

 

Larry ~ Thanks for the input.  I have volume for everything else.  Just not MessengerPlus!  on the Sound Commands.  I have it and then I don't...I have it again and then I don't.  Jerry seems to think I might have a virus...Norton says I don't.  I ran Scan Disk and file(s) were repaired.  Then I ran defrag.  Everything was fine for a few minutes and then it seems it is sporatic!!!  I still have Windows 98.  But thanks for the input.

Sonja and Rachelle ~ I am truly happy and pleased that you are enjoying your new book.  I am on chapter 27 in the morning and it is still exciting!!  

I was hoping to see Mieka again.....sniff, sniff!  I hope I am looking in the wrong place.

More reading for Nards...

It's all so complicated!!!!!!!!!!!

Seriously, thanks for the links.  Seems that some guy named Edward picked up a rock, then said "That weighs more than fourteen kings!"  So from thence on, a king whose skull was harder than a rock was ruled to be a stone.  Thus, when the time came for kings to be weighed, if they were over fourteen years of age, their weight was established as the standard for their entire rule.  Since the king which weighed about the same as a rock which weighed more than fourteen kings was hard to find, especially under the age fourteen, when one was found, the Englanders really wanted to hang on to him for a while.  This need was fulfilled by tying him by his upper appendage in the middle of the lawn, bringing to birth the term "yardarm".  After  fourteen nights, the king would be released and asked if he could fathom his new standard of living.  This was the beginning of the word fortnight, but there is also an unintelligible connection to the foot soldier who banged his head on a ceiling beam after the lanterns were snuffed out.  This soldier then would be gently laid out, until the break of dawn, with his head upon a rock just slightly larger than his skull but thick enough to keep the blood from getting to his brain and suffocating him.  When he was cured, a sack would be brought and he would be quartered if he were bigger than a hundredweight.   At the end of this process, the rock from under his head was taken to the king, where it was placed in a large golden sarcophagus bearing the following inscription...

ONE STONE.

Now, wasn't that just neat??  Really easy to understand after all.

Oh, yeah, but I forgot about the time that Henricus Septimus and his cousing Edward III fired an avoirdupois shotgun into a basket and promptly named it the Winchester bushel.  Sorry.

Nards, I'm so glad you enjoyed that reading!

I just got back from dance.  Wow, what a work out.  

I am a little bummed because we might change our song because some of the older women can't get the dance down.  The other song they might use is about these women in jail who are in there for killing their husbands.    I think I will quit if they use that song. The song is from the movie "Chicago".   Has anyone heard of it or seen the movie?  

Hadn't expected to come back tonight but just got a call from the Realtor saying the sale is now complete on my Condo.  Praise The Lord!

I don't know if you folks realize how much of a blessing all of your are and have been since my coming to this site.  It has been possible to stay calm and focused largely because of the Christian influence found here.  Thanks.

Woooohoooo, Liz!!! That is wonderful news!

Pat~I showed Lila Mae the little kitty and doggy.  She loved them.  She said "Ewww...litty, litty!" and then giggled. She loves cats. LOL...Thanks! Luv you!

I hear the key turning........

Yep!  Nearly, Lee.

OK  Here we are, locking the door on today's topic but there's a new one for you to talk in.

Please feel free to fill it up all night if you can't sleep!

Let's remember our Mieka as she travels away from us.  She will need all of our prayers for her.
