  1. Our visitors have left and we have a really nice time together. It was my older sister and her husband.

  2. Packed my bag today so what better way to fill in part of the day... do a challenge page - the Newsletter one.

  3. Pat, Hope your have a wonderful Birthday.

  4. A-M

    Patsy I had to post my message here as when I went to send the PM a message came up saying your could not receive any more messages.

  5. Picking up a new desktop computer this afternoon so I may be off line for a little time... hopefully I will have not trouble with connecting up the internet again.

  6. Popped in for the first chat and discovered my time setting does not work properly because of being on daylight saving here. So I will be back when the chats do start.

      Does it get better or worse when you uncheck the DST time adjustment?

      Yay all our positive thoughts worked!! Keeping fingers crossed someone quickly sees the value in your home and buys it so you can move on :-)

      That is great news. How exciting to be moving closer to your daughter. :)

  8. Ro... thanks ever so much for the extra discount. With being on a tight budget these days it was great to buy all I had in my shopping bag.

  9. Sadly I have not been receiving any newsletters lately... is this happening to anyone else?

      Mine have started going into my Spam folder I finally found out after missing them for a week or so. Not sure why. Hope you get it sorted Anne-Marie. Kay

  10. Sadly my new broadband internet is not up and running yet. After a few phone calls and testings looks like there could be problems with our phone line so a technician needs to come and sort it out which will not happen until next Monday.

      OH, sorry Anne Marie. Looking forward to you being back here, but I know no moreso than you are! :)

  11. Saturday here Down Under and it is still raining for the washing from yesterday will go in the dryer.

      It was raining here in California yesterday. We needed it:)

    2. Belle

      Raining in Cape Town as well. Love it.

  12. Seems so strange all the talk of snow as we are having a heat wave in my part of Australia. I just did a temperature conversion as we use centigrade here and when we arrived home from being out today, it was 84.2F inside our home.

      Hmmm...so, is that normal for Australia? In MI, it's painfully cold, but not unusually so.

    3. scrapgran

      scrapgran

      Yes Nica, it is nothing for us to be in the mid 30's during summer but this year we have been having high 30's & low to mid 40's. February is usually our hottest month but this year the weather has been unusually hot.

      Interesting. Thanks, Laraine!

      Getting out will help. I hope you're well enough for your visitors.

    3. AggieB

      AggieB

      Glad you're feeling a little better, Andrea's right - a little fresh air and being outside the home could help at this point.

      I feel for you AM...I have been fighting bronchitis. Being sick is terrible.. I hope you feel better!

  14. Starting to do some serious packing of groceries into the caravan today ready for our little holiday.

      We miss you, too. Thanks for stopping by the Forum to say hello.

  16. Still happily settling into our new home - now lots of Christmas preparations so not much time for any digital scrapbooking.

      So glad to here you're settling in well. Enjoy your 1st Christmas in your new home. And, enjoy those grandbabies you're so much closer to now!

  17. Still no new grandchild. I think my daughter may be correct in saying her due date is the 14th. It was the midwife who gave an earlier date.

      Oh my Jody, I thought 10-4 was a big baby.

    3. Cheri T

      As long as you do "due dates" the same there as we do here, remember babies can come anywhere between 14 days before and 14 days after the due date (unless there is a medical need to make things happen sooner)

    4. Nica

      Nica

      Some Dr. have even started giving due months, a range of dates, because some moms get so hung up on the date. Can't wait to here the news though. :)

       

      KatieGrace and Jody, OH MY!!! Mine were 7-4, 6-4, and 8-0. Even the adopted one came home at 5 pounds.

  18. Still no scrapbooking for me until I get more of this sewing done and I need to go out today for some shopping.

      Hope you will love your new home and neighborhood. Bummer about the internet, hopefully your speed will improve over time.

  20. Still waiting for a certain phone call so tonight phoned and only got the answering machine which doesn't tell me anything as they do not always answer even if they are home.

    1. jode2771

      jode2771

      My ex mother-in-law did that and then getting no answer she rang the hospital - I did NOT want to talk while I was in labour! Hang tight - the call will come!!! Thinking of you at this exciting time :-)

    2. Boatlady

      Boatlady

      Fingers crossed for that call soon...waiting is terrible.
