What a great question @Cherylndesigns. And I love the way that @AZK split this up into childhood and adult. My favorite vacation as a child was a trip to the Black Hills and Yellowstone. It was our first family vacation. We went with my uncle, aunt and cousin. It was the summer before I...

What a great page Vicky. I'm sorry that it happened and I hope that the engine will keep running. But you did a great job on this page. Love the cloud with the raindrops and that is a great picture to support the feelings of the journaling!

Good morning ladies. We had nice weather yesterday and it is nice again this morning so I was able to sit on the lanai. That made me feel good. I am now in the middle of the battles with insurance...so that's fun! I went to download a kit and my Cheery-O Excel file where I keep everything...

@Cherylndesigns I don't know what to say except that I am so very sorry. I pray that the memories and love of family will keep you going through this difficult time. In all of the grief, I pray that you can console each other. Much love coming your way from Florida.

Good morning. And we are back to Monday! I'm in a pretty good mood for a Monday morning. I think that is the result of a good weekend. Got my hair done (although really thinking about that in the future...I spent $70 for a haircut and blow dry...that includes tip but still, I just don't...

All of Florida is constantly complaining about this weather. They told us to cover our plants last night...I didn't, if this weather kills them it kills them. I did notice that my hibiscus look pretty nice this morning. A couple of pretty big blooms. Turned the heat on last night. I'm going...

Congratulations on this Standing O!

Look at this amazing heritage page by @Jam-on-toast

Oh my goodness!!! This is amazing! The details of your great-grandmother...I love the way that you have placed the photos...love the cluster on the side of the page...this is just amazing!

@BrightEyes what a great deal on the new computer. That will be a fun new adventure! @bcgal00 the paperwork is so exhausting. But boy does it sound like you have found the right place for you!! @taxed4ever that yucky slush is always so dirty and then the melting and the re-freezing...so...

I do have a few Iowa coats and gloves still. And I'm getting some use out of sweaters and sweatshirts so it's not all bad!

@AnaSantos how are things in your neighborhood after the storms?

I don't think that I've read anything by Alafair Burke...I must add to my "To Be Read" pile...which is way too long!

I do have AARP...I signed up when I registered for Med Supp. The best Med Supp policy had an arrangement with AARP so I did get a better rate. Now I don't have a Med Supp policy since I'm back to fulltime work with group health insurance. I think my AARP automatically renews annually so I'm...

I shouldn't complain because it is better here than most places in the steps. But golly, it is miserable. I'm definitely ready for the trip to Mexico!

Good morning. It's a cold morning here too. 39 and feels like 33. I know it isn't as bad as the rest of the country but really...it's only worth living in Florida for the good winter weather and we sure aren't getting good weather. :eek2: I made it through the work week...a little bit...

Thanks Su_Sanne. I'm home and feeling great!

Thanks Christi!

Well, guess it's afternoon already. I slept really well last night and didn't get up until 7:00. (But without an alarm.) My watch told me that I met my sleep goals...and I think that I must have because I feel good! I had meetings from 8 straight through to 1. So I'm taking a lunch break...

Good morning ladies. I've been up since 5:15...I guess kind of like a kid with their first day of school. So happy to be heading back to work...of course, I haven't opened emails yet so that could all change rapidly. We had a pretty nice day here yesterday! Brian and I had lunch at a...
