NEW: 'obf' christmas in 'july' sign-up
Comments (130)MARIE! I would love to come there this weekend! BUT, it would be 3hrs away from us and with gas prices, and me not working...... I've been job hunting, and there is not much here for my skills, seems most places want LPN's, RN's, and CNA's. Not MA's. And although the thought of staying home with my 3yr old son this summer is nice, it's just not in the finances. I am fighting unemployment right now, they don't seem to think my quiting my job to move to another state so that me and my then 2yr old son could be together with his Father and older brother is a good enough reason. Evidently, they feel that a 2yr old seeing his Dad 3 times over a 9 month period of time is plenty! I have a court date this Thur. AM. It will be a 3 way conf. call with the judge, my previous employer, and myself. I am getting pretty anxious about it and my tummy is in knots! This is the 3rd level of my appeal and I guess there is only one more level after this. I really thought that by the time this all came about I would be working, you can't even find jobs at fast food places with the college kids home right now, and of course if the pay doesn't cover the cost of daycare and gas there isn't much sense in it. But ya never know, if it goes my way I might be able to talk Jamie into it, he keeps asking what I want for my Bday on friday and it is going to be the big 4-0 So I should get something special!! Of course I was thinking along the lines of a load of dirt and a trip to the local nursery LOL! BTW, do you think you could save me some of those tangerine coneflower seeds this fall? They are beauties! Also....I think you will make a fine hostess!! Like Remy said, you already came up with a great name! Remy, Wow, what a trip, I did some searching around here but haven't found a daylily farm yet! Got to go renew my Drivers Lic and get another beautiful DMV photo taken! Take care girls!

Comments (25)I was one of the original "OBF" members. Actually I named the group. We had a contest, and I won. ;) We used to do a lot of ROUND ROBIN boxes, and I hosted so many unique/fun/amazing swaps. Boxes that went around (one person starts it, and it goes from person to person and basically grows/changes with each stop) you choose what you want, and take- replace with new things. We did it with seeds, houseplant starts, Crafts/hand-made (I did soaps, ornaments/crafts-small birdhouse decorations, stained glass items, dried lavender wreaths, small swags, etc. but by the time the package would return to me in it would be - macrame plant hangers, different soaps, crochet items, ceramics, home made wind chimes, etc). Nothing left in the box that I started it out with would be in there. We did a clean out your craft room box exchanges/ again where one box goes out- and tons of craft stuff went around/another take what you want box. Our Round robins were so much fun! I'll start a TRUE round robin houseplant start box in June. And see how it goes. We also did a bunch of fun regular swaps- through out the year, Easter, Start your garden spring swap---Christmas in July, Fall swap, Christmas swap- (swap pals/one box sent- one received). We made each exchange worth the postage! :)...See MoreOBF HOSTESS SIGN UP 2020

Comments (80)I hope everyone had a nice Christmas day. We visited four of our five kids and their families the past two weeks. We were to have dinner with our youngest and his wife yesterday but darn if they didn’t come down with covid. They’ve been vacinnated but not boostered. She had it mild but it knocked our son down. Hubby and I had our dinner then took some over to them to drop off on the porch. We were able to see them through the window at least and what a relief to see my son was actually up. Weather is crazy here. I’m winter sowing and hoping it gets cold enough at some point. Yesterday, we broke a record high and tomorrow will almost be 70! I have my idea for January’s swap and will be posting on the 1st so keep an eye out! Time to party. Margo...See More
