Prairie Tammy...These are the book-marks I made for my Bible Study Gals for tonights Christmas
Party. They turned out cute...thanks for the idea via what you did for our Tea Swap. The White
Scottish Terrier is the Christmas Cards I bought to give to them too.
Mel...was your dog a Shi Tzu? He was so cute. I had to put mine down a few years ago and it about
killed. I love the faces on those dogs...they just invite you heart right in to a love affair with
them. I am so sorry for your loss...that is hard. Hugs to you!!!
Teacher Tammy...I am sorry for the loss of your dog too. My Goodness...my heart is breaking for all
everyone's loss this time of year. I bet Jax is in dog heaven having all the attention diverted back
to him. LOL He is so adorable anyway...makes me want to come visit just so I could hold him. (+:
Thanks for the Book Titles...I will be checking them out immediately. I have been reading Christmas
Stories as of late. I just finished one that I had never seen before and it was their 20 Year Anniversary
of it's first Publication. It was a Classic Christmas Story...If you love it's a Wonderful Life and
Miracle on 34 Street...then you would love this book. It is called The Christmas Guest.
I love the Butterflies Christmas Tree...how adorable! I hope they are continuing to be a good class
this year.
Sabrina... ~ Love your Cornucopia ... you did a really spectacular job on that. I'm very soft from the picture
and parts look hard. ~ And the Pottery looks very pretty.impressed!! ~ What is the Nativity Set from Poland
made out of? Parts of it look soft and parts look hard. Your Pottery is Gorgeous and it looks like You got some Wonderful Pieces. ~ I'm sureit was hard to see the poverty in Poland. Those kind of things really get to my heart
...Big Time!
I can relate to the Flu/Cold thing. I am doing better after a full week but I am still not totally well.
I did get enough energy the last two day to put up my Christmas Decorations minus the Tree this year.
I am so tired of dealing with lights that I just want to get a pre-lit tree for next year and be done with
it all. So, I will look after Christmas for the good buys. So, this year I just used my Table Top Tree
for our Christmas Tree. I works for me. My hubby is a Christmas Scrooge...so he could care less. But I
decorate for me...because I enjoy it so much. ~ Sounds like your chest rub, elderberry syrup and magnesium
lotion were made in perfect timing. That would have been a fun project to do with a group of women. Take
care of yourself and get well soon!
Shannon...the surgery that your daughter needs does not sound like a pleasant thing to go through...but in
the end I think she will Thank You for it down the road. ~ The Creche Festival sounds like it would be neat
to see. I have collected so many Nativities over the years that I could do my own Creche Festival. LOL
I hope that you are feeling better.
Well, girlies I am off to put together the rest of my Stuff for our Bible Study Christmas Party tonight.
Will chat more tomorrow. Big Hugs to everyone!!
Blessings and JOY,
Peggy

Hi everyone - long time no see!! It's been crazy busy here. I can't even get any work done on my Christmas gifts. I don't know where time is going. It seems everyone has been busy too. We sure do have a lot of Nov. porchie bdays. Mine was the 30th. We were going to go see the mockingjay movie too, but didn't make it there yet :)
Peggy - Love the tea swap - please sign me up. I'll send you an e-mail.
Well, sorry this is so short. It took me a while to get caught up reading everything and now I need get the dishes done before milking. Another thing I haven't had time to do and now it's gotten out of hand! I'll try not to wait so long to come back and sit a spell.

Hi Peggy -
Sign me up again for the tea swap - April or May is best for me if either of those is still available.
Thanks!

Saw my oldest dd's surgeon today... he thinks we should wait another year to see how things go with her hand. I'm kinda relieved yet on the other hand, just want it done!
I would LOVE to do the tea swap, but do not want to take anyone else's spot!!!! Peggy I'll e-mail you and if I am taking someone's spot that is a regular, I won't do it :)

Hey, porchies!
I've never taken part in the tea swap but I sure would like to. I'll email my info. I may need some directions.
I think it's time we break out the decorations for our virtual porch.
Here, I'll wrap these strings of white lights across the porch rail. See? So pretty! Now we can sit out here without the porch light on and just have these sparkling for us.
Anyone have ribbon or bows?

Hi Peg, I will take June again if it's still open. Nothing has changed for me so you already have my email.
Thanks!

Hey, did anyone see that I hung lights on our virtual porch railing 4 posts up?
Geez, (sarcastic and humorous tone), I know we're all excited about signing up for tea. But, my lights are so lonely. Is anyone gonna add to the festivity? Perhaps some garland, ribbons, ornaments...

The porch is looking fabulously lovely and festive. I have had a rough night, so here is some hot tea and apple crisp for breakfast. I think for Brunch, I will bring everyone some omelets, as that is what I think I am going to make my kiddos. Fixings include cheese, ham, bell peppers, hit peppers, mushrooms, onions, and Garlic. Let me know what you want on yours! Oh and here is a radio so we an liste not a Christmas CD. Is the Piano Guys alright with all of you?

WOO HOO!!! The porch is beautiful. I'm adding some lap blankets to all our chairs so we can keep warm.
Shannon, sorry you had a rough night. I'm having a rough morning, so your omelet will be the perfect comfort. And I love the Piano Guys.

Just strung pine roping on the railing. Smelllll that? Finds a chair, wraps up in a fuzzy blanket and enjoys the scene.
Added Piano Guys (holiday) to Pandora. very nice!
Love omelets and want everything on mine. That tea n crisp hit the spot on this gray, rainy day. Thanks Shannon.

Oh I missed out on porch decorating! Looks lovely ladies!
We have all been sick in my house and are just starting to get over it. Not completely well but better than before so hopefully we keep getting better.
Can you fill me in on the specifics of the tea swap? We would send out how much tea? Are there guidelines on what type (bagged, loose) are we supposed to find like an exclusive brand or mix? I might be interested in one of the months later in the year if its still open.

Morning everybody! Sorry I've been MIA. Chrome browser stopped working for me so I switched back to Internet Explorer and couldn't get logged back in. I had to contact the help desk to get it fixed it. I warned them that Peggy was going to send a posse after me if I didn't post soon LOL
Peggy - I emailed you with my request for the tea exchange.
The porch is looking wonderful. Haven't gotten my decorations up. They've upped my hours at W*lmart to 24 a week. I'm hoping to go in today and talk to someone else about it. I spoke with my manager and she said she'd take care of it and then scheduled me for a third 24 hour week instead. I'm already feeling like I'm doing nothing but working. Please keep me in prayer that I can get this fixed.
So how is everybody's weather? We had beautiful frozen fog covered trees yesterday morning. It was beautiful. Temps are starting to rise so we're experiencing melt off. Saturday we're supposed to be up to 45!
