Christy's couch

Wow, is it cold outside! Its been cold out every night for the last several nights, so neither Margaret nor I is surprised. But yikes! I can honestly say that's the only thing I really despise about this time of year. Still, the seasons must change. Sadly, Margaret and I have finally decided to stop... Sign in to see full entry.

No, it isn't our American Thanksgiving holiday yet, of course, but...I think kabu and wiley might get a laugh over the fact that today is the day Margaret and I have decided it's time to cook one of our favourite feasts. Roast chicken! We'd love a nice big roast turkey, but poor Margaret is allergic... Sign in to see full entry.

I am soooooo glad it's Friday. After the week we've had, it couldn't have gotten here soon enough. I don't think Belle and the kids are coming down this weekend after all, and while I'm sorry for Margaret, I'm actually really glad they're not. I am not in the mood for anyone other than Margaret at... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi everyone... Please may I ask you all to pray for Becky and her family? Her uncle Greg's wife, Irene, passed away yesterday morning after a battle with cancer. It has only been a little over a year now that they lost Richie, so this is a very difficult and painful time for the family. Thank you... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi everyone... I wanted to continue with Dragon and with Jack's story, too, but...last night was horrible for both Margaret and I, and tonight we just want to go to bed early because we have to be up by 7:00. Margaret has a meeting to go to in the morning that can't be rescheduled. I'm not doing... Sign in to see full entry.

Today is one of those brisk, chilly October days that makes one wish they had stayed tucked in bed under the covers! Brrr! Still, there was no choice but to get up and about today. There will be no choice for the rest of this week, I'm sad to say. I've barely felt like getting out of my own way... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi everyone... This is one Monday I'm actually going to enjoy! We're leaving in about an hour and a half to go and see THE BOX TROLLS. Both of us are looking forward to going out of the house again. Fingers crossed for going to see THE BOOK OF LIFE when it opens next Friday! I'm dressed to the nines... Sign in to see full entry.

An old Aussie expression a friend once taught me. That's where we were today, and will hopefully where we'll be again tomorrow. We want to go and see THE BOX TROLLS. We wanted to go at the weekend, but ended up not feeling up to it. I hope the sunny weather holds out. We've just come home from... Sign in to see full entry.

My father has banished you from the cloud forest and his kingdom,” Princess Elisa said coldly. “I’ve already told you, I will not be your wife. We have no need of your defense or your army. If you have no kingdom of your own to rule, I can see why! You will never have a place with my mother and... Sign in to see full entry.

I've just read Jimmy A's comment on my latest post, and I have to say I find it most interesting that one of the mysteries surrounding "Jack the Ripper" seems to suggest that some believed the killer to be a woman! I both heard and read recently, Jimmy, that the remains of the killer were only very... Sign in to see full entry.

LOVE, LIES, MURDER London, present day London’s famed White Chapel Hall. If you’ve never visited London before, and you’ve never been to this place, you may not be familiar with it’s dark past. Well, I’m certainly familiar with it. A bit too familiar with it, you might say. I had always planned on... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy birthday, Nana... I love and miss you more than you know. You too, Grandpa. Still, I know you're having a beautiful celebration in Heaven with Jesus and all your loved ones with you there now.

To all my friends who have it-and to all my friends who don't-Happy Cerebral Palsy Awareness Day! I wouldn't have my life any other way! I don't look at CP as a punishment, but a gift from God Himself. It may not be the gift I would have chosen for myself, but it's still a gift. La Chaim! Here's to... Sign in to see full entry.

Please join me in praying for the children, parents, and staff of Sandy Hook Elementary school, dear ones. I've just heard that the school had to be evacuated after staff received a threatening telephone call earlier this morning. I'm just utterly speechless. How could anyone threaten these children...

Poor little Sunny. Mummy Margaret had to take him to visit the vet this morning and he did NOT like it one little bit! It was time for his yearly injection for rabies. He also had to have his nails clipped, which he hates! It was too early in the month for his flea meds, so he'll get them again at... Sign in to see full entry.

It wasn’t until early in the evening that anyone realised she was missing. The moon had just taken her place in the sky. King Lightening decided he should go and try to comfort Elisa. He searched the entire cloud palace, but she was nowhere to be found. He searched her private room. She was not... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi everyone... Please may I ask you all to keep Jim and Ann in your prayers? Jim just informed me that Ann has been very ill. She's been unable to work for the past two months.

There's really no other way I can describe myself this morning. I did sleep well...got up, had a shower then breakfast and some exercise...but I just feel...I don't even know how to describe it.
