BUSY LITTLE BEES
I still have to post those Thanksgiving cards to Austalia and England. They may be late, but I hope they arrive all the same! Roommie and I also have to sign our lease renewal papers today. What fun! I need a shower today. I also want to paint some more. I'm having such fun with it! I have to run... Sign in to see full entry.
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH
Hello everyone... I'm so sorry I couldn't write more than two posts yesterday. I did try, but our internet service has been ridiculous lately. We've been getting kicked off and back on again all morning thus far, and it's driving me crazy! I'm also sorry not to have been able to read anyone yet. I... Sign in to see full entry.

JUST A TINY BIT MORE OF ISABELLA'S STORY
THERE’S A BABY IN OUR STABLE! One night long, long ago, in the little town of Bethlehem, a strange star lit up the sky. Eight-year-old Isabella stared at the star as Mama helped her get ready for bed. “Stop fidgeting, little one,” Mama scolded gently. “I’m almost finished!” But Isabella could not...

MY INTERNET KEEPS DYING!
Hello gang... I'm sorry I haven't posted again since this morning, but we've been getting kicked on and offline all day. Believe me, I've been miserable! The upside to all this is that I managed to get quite a bit more of Mum's turkeys painted. So, I may just be able to get them finished before... Sign in to see full entry.

EAT APPLE DANISH, DRINK MILK, AND BE MERRY!
In just about half an hour, Roommie and I are going to watch MERRY MADAGASCAR. It's the new direct to tv holiday special from Disney. We've been waiting for it all month. Of course, watching tv together just isn't enough. We absolutely MUST have a snake! We try to make them healthy ones, like... Sign in to see full entry.
COMING ALONG TURKEY
I've just done a bit more painting on Mum's turkey couple. I've had to stop for the time being because my hands have gotten a bit stiff and achy from being moved back and forth and held in one position for too long. They also started to shake a bit, which lets me know that it's time to stop. But... Sign in to see full entry.
SENDING SOME THANKSGIVING ABROAD
The other day, I asked Roommie to buy me two Thanksgiving cards. You see, I have a couple of friends I want to send them to as a sort of joke/wish you were here to help me celebrate. One of the cards is being sent to Juliet in London. The other is for an old friend of mine in Australia. Only problem... Sign in to see full entry.
CRAFTS GALORE AND JUDGE JUDY
Like I said last night, I think it must be the colder whether coming on. I've been stocking up on craft supplies like crazy! I've got dozens stashed just about everywhere you can think of, and I bounce from one to another and then back again! Sometimes, I'm amazed I can even keep them all straight!...

THE BEST LAID PLANS
I was just about to head to the kitchen to work on Mum's Thanksgiving turkeys again when Becky called. Thus, the best laid plans have been temporarily put on hold! I don't mind at all. I love talking to Becky every chance we get. We've been best buds since we met in kindergarten, and no matter how... Sign in to see full entry.
WHERE TO GO?
I'm having strange feelings again. They started last night, and they're even stronger today. I don't know what's set me off again, just that something doesn't feel right. Mind you all, this doesn't necessarily mean something bad is going to happen. I will write more today, I think. There will be... Sign in to see full entry.
CLEANLINESS BEFORE WRITING
I hate it when I know I've taken a shower, but don't feel as if I have. I want to do some writing today, but I just can't write properly unless I feel clean inside and out! So, it's time for that second shower now. I'll come back as soon as I can, I promise. Sign in to see full entry.
SUNNY TUESDAY
Good morning, everyone... I hope you all had a very pleasant evening. I didn't sleep again last night I'm afraid, but I'm actually feeling pretty okay. My back is still at it, but not as badly today. The sun is shining, and even though it's cool, it's not freezing, thank goodness! Roommie has gone... Sign in to see full entry.

EXHAUSTED
It must be the colder weather coming on. I'm wiped out at the moment. Neither Roommie and I has been sleeping at all well at night lately, but neither of us honestly knows why. My back has been hurting again on and off all day, and the neausea was back full force this morning. Thank God it didn't... Sign in to see full entry.
DECISIONS, DECISIONS!
Well, I've done it, so there!!!!... I paid two bills that needed paying, and I'm considering paying the electric a couple of weeks early as well. I won't have as much money in December if I do this, but we should still fair out pretty well. I haven't actually decided whether I'm going to do it yet,... Sign in to see full entry.

A CRYING SHAME
This morning, Roommie and I were watching SUNDAY MORNING with Charles Osgood, and one segment inparticular spoke to us both. We never realised this, but the Army is the only branch of the armed forces not to have a museum of it's own. This saddens me beyond words. The segment showed works of art...
