Congratulations, Grandma! I agree that he/she needs a Christmasy name (maybe the name of one of the reindeer).

What a GREAT shirt! My late FIL would have worn that proudly every day of the season! I can hear his wife now: "Bob, you HAVE to take that shirt off long enough for me to WASH IT."

Yay, looking forward to baby pictures :-)

My goodness those are nice. Love the heucheras!! I like them too, but they don't really like where I live. I can grow them for a couple of years and then they die. The only ones that survive are the ones planted close to the house. Same thing with Astilbes.....which I also like..... Hostas my favorite!!

What on earth is up with my Electrolux oven(s)?
Q
Comments (2)
I had similar problems with a wall oven several years ago and someone on this forum suggested it was because the ovens were stacked on top of each other too high. It might be the way they are transported. I would call the dealer and ask them to send a new oven. I had a problem with an Electrolux oven after that in that when it was new, it shed small shards of enamel. Electrolux sent me a new oven but the dealer had me go through Elux. I did not have to go back and forth getting it myself, they delivered it in both cases.

I wish they were in the barn, but the mama is a "wild" donkey that was abandoned after the hurricane. The county picked them up and was going to put them down if no one claimed them. I think it was because they didn't have coggins and couldn't go to an auction and donkeys are a dime a dozen, or free, here and no one would pay to have coggins for them. There were four, so a friend and I took two each. I had her son, the vet said he was about 2 1/2 yrs., gelded....$250....which is why few jacks ever get gelded....and why we have so many donkeys no one wants. Anyway, it is cold but clear and sunny. I wish she was in the barn, but she has her own ideas. I will probably name it Frosty. That would work for a male or female. I have been recycling names lately, and Frosty was a much loved horse I had many years ago.

How cool! Can’t wait to see the pics of your new one!

BTW, Marilyn, have been meaning to direct you to a farm near here called Lake Nowhere Mule and Donkey farm in Tennessee not far from here. They have a Facebook page if you are interested in following. My friend has bought from them & highly recommends. They just posted a new pic the other day of one of their newborns. So cute.
