THANKS DIANE! Keeping your family in my prayers,

We are having big storms - a usual hazard after a hot  summer day, but it's a nasty one tonight, see you tomorrow LOL 

MALAPROPS.......
1.  IN STAR WARS AMERICA HAS COME UP WITH THE PENULTIMATE SYSTEM OF DEFENSE.
2.  THIS MOVIE IS NOT FOR THE SCREAMISH.

MORE SNOW COMING.  LOCAL FORECASTERS TELL US 5-8" STARTING LATE TONITE AND INTO MONDAY.  NATIONAL GUYS PAINT A DIFFERENT STORY AND WORSE SAYING 12-18".  I HOPE OUR GUYS ARE RIGHT.  I HAVE A DR'S APPT ON TUESDAY.  THAT'S WHY I HATE MAKING THEM FROM DEC. THRU MARCH.  YOU NEVER
 KNOW WHEN A STORM WILL HIT US. 

LINDA......SO SORRY FOR YOUR FAMILY'S LOSS.  AND HE WAS SO YOUNG.  THAT'S REALLY SAD.  HUGS FOR THE FAMILY.

DIANE......NICE TO HEAR YOUR BROTHER IS IMPROVING AND EXPECTS A FULL RECOVERY. HUGS FOR HIM.

I WOKE EARLY AGAIN.  I SEEM TO BE FALLING ASLEEP EARLIER THESE NITES AFTER SO MANY CHORES DURING THE DAY.  I WAKE EARLIER SO I AM ABLE TO DO A CHORE OR TWO BEFORE LUNCH, OR BRUNCH.  TODAY I SORTED MY ELECTRIAL DRAWER.  I HAD SOME REALLY OLD STYLE CORDS IN THERE LIKE WHEN I HAD EQUIPMENT CONNECTED TO MY TV THAT IS LONG GONE.  TOSSED THAT STUFF OUT.  
I GOT ALL MY FABRICS DONE AND SORTED. GIVING AWAY A TALL OVER 4"PILE OF IT AND I STILL HAVE ENUF TO LAST ME TEN YEARS OR MORE.  
TODAY MY SON SHOPS SO LAST NITE I MADE HAMBURGER SOUP FOR HIM TO TAKE HOME.  HE ALWAYS TAKES HOME SOME ITALIAN SANDWICHES EVERY TIME SO THAT'S A GIVEN.  AT LEAST NO COOKING IS NEEDED FOR HIS MEALS TONITE.

I AM ALL SET FOR ANY STORM.  BLANKETS ARE READY AS ARE THE BATTERY LANTERNS AND FLASHLIGHTS.  I WILL KEEP RECHARGING MY PHONE THROUGHTOUT THE DAY.  I HAVE SARDINES ANDCRACKERS AND THERE'S PEANUT BUTTER AND BREAD FOR FOOD IF THE POWER GOES OUT AND I CAN'T HEAT UP  ANYTHING.  ALSO CANNED FRUITS ARE AT-THE-READY.  MANY HALF GALLON BOTTLES OF WATER FOR DRINKING AND WASHING AND A BRITA PITCHER FOR CLEAN,SAFE WATER.   BOOKS TO READ AND CARDS FOR PLAYING SOLITAIRE IF IT GETS DULL.  I AM PREPARED.

STAY SAFE AND WARM ALL THOSE IN THE PATH OF THIS NEW STORM.  ITS GOING UP THE I-95 CORRIDOR SO WILL HIT MOST COASTAL AREAS AND SOME MILES INLAND.
HUGS LADIES.  QB S 
OH, IF YOU DO NOT HEAR FROM ME TOMORROW OR EVEN TUESDAY, BLAME IT ON THE STORM AND NO POWER.  I AM FEELING HEALTHY AND IN PREPPED FOR THIS STORM.

Good morning.  Old Man Winter is back!  We woke up to four inches of snow blanketing everything.  It's still coming down and the wind is fierce in gusts.  And, after church on-line, Howard is off to the grocery.   Not me.  I'm staying in.  The stores around here are trying to lure more customers for their 3-day weekend specials and there were some things he was determined to go for.  He's fairly willing to go alone, now, since he can make much better time without me on several levels.   Actually, we ended up  conferring on a list before he left.  How can two people eat so much?  

I thought I have a lot of fabric, but you girls have me beat I'm pretty sure.  You'd probably gag at the stuff I have, much of it weirdo stuff I've pick up here and there at garage sales.  But, I do love it when something works and I can use it.  Will be going up to my sewing room, today to check for something I can use on my current hand sewing project--a small spring wall hanging using some beaded, floral embroidered trim from an old blouse Mom had.  

Diane, better news for your brother, thankfully.  Hope you're health is improving, too. 

And, Linda, so sorry for the loss in your extended family.  Fifty-one IS so young and then, the serious surgery with his wife.  As for you, keep coming back.  I, for one always enjoy your posts and hearing about your family.  Hope Darrell is doing well...
QB,  you are "setting the house on fire"...with your reorganization and chor-ing.  Is that a word?  Grandma used to remind  Grandpa to get "coated" up to do the "choring". 

I'm going.  Have to revel in the small dose of alone time I have right now.  Blessings.
