Good morning Sans family
Good Morning Robo, nice you have a new sewing machine, as I know you kindly sew masks for all.
I do enjoy sewing. Makes me feel good to know I’am doing something to help folks. I have always felt we need to play our blessings forward to others.
glad your planning went well. We hope to organise a family gathering - perhaps away for a night - in the Spring as an opportunity to share memories of my Dad. It was so sad having his burial with no tribute to him.
This Covid crisis has caused so much heartache to all who have lost loved ones during this time.
So nice that you all are planning a lovely time of remembrance for your dad in the future.
The funeral home that we helped dad and stepmom for their preplanning has been so kind in helping set up her memorial service. This will be a nice way to come together as a family to remember her.
Well, I blinked and today my ‘baby’ DS is 40 today. Time is fleeting indeed. BD socially distanced gathering at their club tonight with a make your own/tell the chef lol pasta bar. Indoor or outdoor seating on covered patio. I’m setting up camp in the furthest corner outside table
Happy belated birthday to your son Keisha
Lovely picture of your sons. As Schumi had commented, you can see you in your sons.
Hallmark new ornament day. I generally am not tempted having enough for 10 trees but, just couldn’t resist this bad boy!
Cool ornament. I do like the haunted mansion ride.
Think my glass has slightly more in it.........
Yummy looking drinks.
The acts were a mix very good and excellent......but the highlight was by far when Queen came on.......the already charged atmosphere just seemed to quadruple when they came on and Freddie and Queen put on the best show ever! He was mesmerising.
There are few true showmen that can captivate an audience. Freddy and Queen were in that category.
How lucky you and your friend were to see that show in person.
It’s my favorite HHN mug.
On the way home we stopped by a new cupcake place. Can’t get in the habit of doing that.
I stopped at a bakery that has been in a burb of Chicago for many moons to get my favorite cookies to bring home after visit with dad. Shouldn’t have done that........LOL....I did put some in the freezer. So the sweets are tempting at times.
We finished our project today. I was trying to come up with a way for us to store our masks. I put this on the wall next to the door where we always go out.
Cool display hooks for your masks. I thing they will be around for a while.
Rule just went out here today masks are mandated everywhere. People have been wearing them already except for a few holdouts.
no issues at all with the ascent. As for the gold- we found a couple flakes. Lots of garnets in the silt though. Our guide let Alysa (the geology major) take the silt from the pan (after gold filtered out) home. She and her sister spent hours picking out the garnets. We each have a teeny vial of them now. I adore my kids, but I felt like I was back in school at times as we got lots of impromptu “helpful information” talks about rocks around us. OTOH- she very clearly picked a field of study she loves and is passionate about, and a parent always wants their kids to be happy
Sounds like you had a great time on your gold panning day.
Sending lots of prayers and good thoughts for your daughter. This has been a rough time for the young ones.
Universal- if they keep up what they are doing right now- is fantastic.
Glad to hear they are doing such a great job.
Robbi is the one who does multiple trees up very big, I’m sure she’ll share her pictures
LOL.....you know me well. I will hunt them up 9n the iPad and share.
I have found my people!!
Yes, you have found your people.....I have 12 up for the Christmas holidays. That’s including stand alone trees and table top trees.
Two for Halloween.
I know I’m probably one of the youngest contributors to this thread, but yup age doesn’t matter one bit around here....
Not at all.......age is a matter of mind over matter.
My son was 8 years old in 1985.
You all know how I turned 50 in April.... well a letter from AARP came in the mail and I started ribbing DH, who is a few years older than me, about his... ahem... elderly mail.... and then I saw it was addressed TO ME! LOL! We laughed so hard at that one.
The kicker is when they give you the senior discount and you didn’t ask for it.....LOL
AMEN....to that Lynne
I want to make more of our outdoor trees this year.......and have suggested we have small lit trees up the sides of the driveway......Tom said it`ll look like a runway......lol
That would be pretty.
I haven`t seen my family in so long now.......it was supposed to have been March for birthdays and Mother`s Day......but obviously we cancelled just before the rest of the world went to Hell and back.....so I`m keen to hear when they will allow us to travel back to Scotland.......
It has been hard.....just think of all the celebrations you will be able to have when you all get back together.
Keisha.... sprinkling lots of mummy dust your way as you prepare for your surgery.
Mac......hope the Georgia sun ☀ is shining on you today.
Sun is shinning this morning. Storm came through yesterday cooled thing things down slightly. 84 is the high for today, then back up into the 90’s for remains of the week.
Have a few errands today.
Have a great Monday everyone.
