Thanks For The Christmas Card!

10 years ago

I received a very nice Christmas card yesterday from Marie ND and it was mailed over a month ago! The problem was the zip code had two digits reversed and some one then marked that out and just put the first 3 digits down and I finally got it. I tried to email Marie but I must have an old email address. How do you email someone from here?

Thanks Marie for the nice card.

My husband's deckhand doesn't pick up her mail very often, but she finally did a couple of days ago, and received a Christmas card and didn't notice that it wasn't addressed to her until she opened it. Inside was a check for $1,000. Since most people have cell phones now and they aren't listed, my husband called the phone number on the check....some people in Colorado who had sent the $1,000 to their son for Christmas....got his phone number and we were able to meet him yesterday and give him his check and the card.

Sue, click on Marie's name and if the has a Message box at the top right, you can send her a message that she will get in her email. Other than that, there's no way of reaching her.

I just checked, and she doesn't.

Anyone starting seeds?

Seeds take over my life at this time of year! I fear it will be worse than normal this season because the weather has been so cool and wet! Even on the warm pleasant days it is impossible to do much because everything is a soggy mess! (shhhh best not whine about rain after a two year drought) I sowed my first nine WS containers yeaterday I expect to plant many more in the coming week. No brugs though, I do have a one year old seedling wintering with the rest of my cuttings, looking forward to the first bloom in the new year! Happy New Year everyone! Frances

We've been keeping an eye on rates with the intention of refinancing, but it's not quite there yet. If the magic number appears, we're there! Sue

How heartwarming and what an honest, honorable thing for you to do. It's very wonderful to know that there are still folks who do the 'right thing'.
