Good afternoon ladies. I just wanted to check in to make sure everyone is doing ok. @faerywings I have loved seeing the wedding pictures! What a wonderful looking family you have! I am so happy for you and so excited that you are doing something that fills your soul with this new job. I...

Alaska is my next trip Rae. We leave for Seattle on May 3. We get in late but will spend Saturday and Sunday morning wandering around Seattle. Then off to the cruise of Alaska. I'm really jazzed up. We are considering a fall cruise to see the leaves changing. But now that we have a place...

Glad you made it home safely. Did you get any good food on your Amish country trips? We have an Amish community in Iowa and they have the best home cooked meals.

It sounds like your weather is just the opposite of yours. But I know what you mean about the windows open...it's funny but it makes me feel like a little girl whenever we do it.

Good morning all. I just happened to remember that @faerywings was traveling today. Then I remembered that @vickyday was traveling today. So I decided to brush off my old skills and open a thread. Good weather today...the awful heat is gone for a couple of weeks. At least, I hope so!

Good morning ladies! I've missed you all so much! I'd like to tell you that things are settling down...but they really aren't. But most of that is my own fault. @faerywings I would love to hear one of Scott's campfire talks. It makes me feel so happy the way he has found his happy place in...

Good evening ladies! Just a quick in and out from me. @faerywings first, great news on your FIL's ablation. Pretty remarkable what they can do. Second, I am impressed with your mom's cardiologist. I think that is very good advice to get a second opinion. Then Cait...her wedding dress...

Such good news Evelyn! Just in time to enjoy spring. Praying that the news continues to be good!

Good morning ladies! Oh Chris, I so often wonder about how we lived before cell phones. Sydney is on spring break starting this afternoon and she is heading to Cocoa Beach with a bunch of friends and then after a couple of days there, they are headed to Key West. This group of friends has...

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!
