hi well I am thinking of building an ark rain again to-day I had a great meal with laura on thursday evening we went to the red lobster lots of shrimp etc a good time was had by both of us and then went to the local chapters book store so she could browse around and buy a book. to-day I am taking one of the ladies out to see the new bakery that has opened in town called the lemon tree bakery it recieved a great write up in the paper so we shall check it out.. yesterday I called anne to see if she had gone to silver street to see the princess anne open the the new carers place in bury, I remember silver street very well there used to be a jewllers store that I bought my mom some earings many xmases ago. but she had forgot all about it she was busy making xmas cards she makes beautifull ones. 2 towns about 30 miles from us had snow yeaterday so I really should not complain about the rain .well that is it for me bye for now dorothy |

hi brenda hope that you knee feels better soon fred had some good advice as usual don't give up on your holiday, what is a practice nurse perhaps it is like our nurse practioners who have extra training and can sub for the doctor in some situations. fred you say you are off for a few days you mentioned a funeral did you have someone pass away I must have missed that. brenda I am sure the evening with Laura will be interesting no matter what resturant she picks, Laura has just started getting into investments she had her parents invest 800 dollars that she had saved up, she is not a spender but a saver she had a paper route for a while and banked all her money I told her if I run short I will call her for a loan!!! it is funny that she needs extra help with her school math but is fine with money well it is raining again so that is it for me for to-day bye for now dorothy |

goodmorning from a rainy but not too cold a day over here but as I have said before rain is better than snow, glad to see that your xmas plans are all set fred not sure as yet who is having xmas I think that it is lindy's sister jane's turn so I shall just wait and see, I have been looking at turkeys but hve not bought one as yet they are quite expensive at the moment. thursday evening I am taking Laura out for dinner just us two its the grandma thing i do with them all around their birthdays with all the after school activities this was the best night we could hit on, she gets to choose the resturant she is into sushi at the moment so heavens knows what we will end up with!!!. brenda thanks for the message I always forget to look up messages on the site but when I do it is a nice surprise, I have a free day to-day and for once I can't decide what to do with it but of course the tennis will be on this afternoon so maybe I will just pop over to the library I see that they have two books on reserve for me bye for now dorothy |

goodmorning I think that the wet weather you have been having is now over here we have had rain for the last 2 days non stop but at least it is not snow brenda and kathleen thankyou for the kind remarks re the grandaughters loss of a friend, it has been a sad week for the children the death of a classmate and the way it was done is very hard to deal with. the children have always been involved with their local church with their mom and I think that is helping as well. brenda it sounds like you are nearly ready for your holidays when exactly do you leave. I planthis week-end to write my over seas cards I seem to have got behind in that area, I shall mail the other part of anne's xmas gift on saturday she toolk part one home with her when she was here. its funny at this time of year after living here so long I do get homesick I guess the memories of our christmass's in walshaw come flooding back special days for me, well I shall brave the rain and pop out to the shops take care everyone bye for now dorothy |

H All,been suring the net for a friend who is having pc problems ,she wanted to replace some copies of books she wants to re read,but had had trouble getting them,they are on Amazon and places like that but you can not see them before you buy,so I will need to ask her what she wants to do .They have been out for a long time and my copies are old and yellow,but I would not part,but when you pay few pounds plus p&p and don't know what they are like !!! |

hi everyone I am rather sad to-day my grandaughter is dealing with the death of one of her classmates who at the age of 13 commited suicide what can one say to-day is the funeral the school have brought in help for the children, lindy is going with her to the funeral two schools are affected as the young girl attended the school where lindy teaches up to grade 4 . also one of lindys uncles is not expected to live he has liver cancer and they say it is only a matter of days. I have been looking up teen suicide for guidance in helping laura deal with this. on to brighter things the weather is still sunny but it was -5 this morning good the sun is still with us .hope everyon is well the site seems a bit slow perhaps everyone is xmas shopping bye for now dorothy |
