I know this little piece of wisdom - never go to bed arguing! I receive 3 little kisses at night. If I'm lucky there will be 4 next year :giggle4:

Beautiful page, Vicky!

Love it! Hopefully there's a present for me??

Beautiful and magical scene! The little elves are decorating for Christmas. Lovely!

Gorgeous page, Susan! Love the funny house you found! Perfect take on the challenge and beautiful colors.

Such a fun and colorful page! Love the round frame and all the little ribbons.

Thanks for your explanation on this, Cheryl! Unfortunately, we Germans are a bit more reserved, which I think is a shame. You're absolutely right, the kiss when you're leaving - even if it's just when your partner is going shopping alone - is important! It is so important to tell your family...

Ouch! Where did you catch such a cold, Rae??? Colds are coming everywhere. Drink lots and lots and if it doesn't help, go to the doctor! Don't torture yourself for so long. Maybe 3 days of cortisone and then you'll have peace! Get well soon!! :getwell:

Is it that cold where you are?? Brrrr. :brrr: We started with 50 °F :drinkglance:

Thank you so much, Chris! Yes, that makes sense. I learn so much here with you! And that's good!! I just have to make an effort to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius. I still cringe when you talk about a pleasant 60° outside temperature. This is our specification for boiled laundry :lol23: :giggle4...

Thanks so much, Chris! :heartpumpred:

Yippy! Thank you so much, Chris :kiss2:

Thank you Kay! I love the language - I am more familiar with it than other European languages.

When will the relatives stop waiting? Terrible! so many sad stories. Nobody wins!

Thank you, Cheryl. Love that song.

Muahaha! So scary this big angry looking owl! Anyway you created a beautiful scene again.

Such beautiful photos of you both. It is so sad to read that she died so young. Thank you for sharing this with us :heartpumpred:

Thank you, Cheryl! So interesting - I was a paper scrapper, too! Hard work on my photo albums! I'm so sorry for your loss. It's terrible when you don't know where your loved one died and there is no grave where you can mourn. Terrible! It helps, that your story was published.

Lovely Winterscene, Jeannette! I like the big white tiger!

Chris, I can understand the first 2 paragraphs of your “daily overview” and your fears very well!!! Since Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine, Europe has been in turmoil! Now Hamas's war of aggression against Israel and the many small wars around the world that are hardly mentioned...
