Just checking in....:)

16 years ago

Hi ladies and gentleman...:)

I just wanted to check in...my son arrived from Germany and I have been busy filling out stacks of Immigration papers...my youngest got his first car and everytime he is off on his own I am on pins and needles until he pulls back into the driveway...the next couple weeks I'll be busy putting the patio furniture away...closing up the pool and getting ready for another Buffalo Winter...

But...I am already in the planing stages for my Halloween and fall decorations and can't wait to 'play'...

Attached is the link to the updated Wegmans site with their fall dishes...I have to run past them with my eyes closed each time I go grocery shopping....LOL

Hi Tam, happy to see you here again and I am looking forward to seeing your decorations! I was crazy and looked at your link, I swear if I lived where you live and had a Wegmans I KNOW I would be broke, so many beautiful dishes, thanks for the eye-candy.

I am so happy for you to have you son with you again, that is very exciting. I also know what you mean about your son being a new driver, very worrysome, but as time goes on you will relax a bit more!

Here you go, easier to be tempted!

So good to hear from you, Tam! I am happy your son is here, and the pins and needles are normal with new drivers. I imagine my parents felt the same way about me!
Let the decorating begin!!!

Betonklotz, Thanks for the compliment. Unfortunately I am losing that sunroom! The new home is bright but I won't have a place for the plants with that much sun until I decide what type of hobby greenhouse I'm putting in. Maybe a year or two. Until then I have to put lights in the basement for most of my plants. My plant hobby will be deminished in size for a couple of years... :( poor me!

Hi all! I am enjoying the new job, though I will admit it was a challenge at the beginning! The guy who had been working there walked out and left a 3-4 week backlog of work piled up and deleted alot of the old job files (which I was able to retrieve (partially). Having not worked in a year I had to really figure out the machines quickly and get everything caught up. I am now on top of things and thankfully had all my contacts to get questions answered about certain things that stumped me. Things should go along a little smoother now. We have had rain and heavy wind the last 2 days--I found my GH on it's side this afternoon when I got home. It's back up and relocated now. I thank you all for the offers of replacement plants, but I want to wait to see what does come back and what room I may have left to plant stuff. I have 2 more gardens planned at the back of the house and once I get the ground dug up, amended and start planting I will have a better idea. This WILL be my LAST move!! Getting too old to do this again. Elizabeth--I will call TC one weekend and see what he has going on down there this year. He is a really nice guy and I have enjoyed getting to know him better over the last 4-5 years. Hope he has some of the ones I had gotten in the fall that did not make it as cuttings. Well-better get me some dinner and a shower and a fairly early night to bed. 4am comes early!! Linda

I'm so glad you're feeling better. It is good to have those tests once in a while, but also good to have them over with! I love biscornus, myself--don't know whether you would consider them "fun" or not, though! ;0] Here are some others, too: http://www.flickr.com/photos/bella_dia/sets/733357/ Chicken Pincushions http://www.web-goddess.org/archive.php/postID/2381 I hope these links still work. I had to figure them out from where I had saved them in Firefox's "Scrapbook." Here is a link that might be useful: Biscornu making

Hi Tam, Congrats on getting your son over here with you. Know you are thrilled.

Can't wait for you to get all tucked in for winter, so you can come back and chat and decorate with us. We've missed you.

Loved all those Wegman dishes as always. They look so expensive, I can't believe a grocery store sells them! I also looked at one of the store flyers--the pics of the food made me so hungry! LOL

Hi everyone...just popped in for a moment and had to check out the dishes. Tam, I'm so glad to see your son made it here ok. I can sympathize with you regarding your other son - my son just got his driver's license and I'm scared to death every time he leaves the house.

I really like the Tuscan Valley...the colors are so rich looking. I also like the two sets that have the pumpkins also.

What a terrific post this was to read. I am going to be lazy and just say "DITTO" to what everyone else has already said so well.

hugs, Karen
