Good morning to you gals! I actually started a thread yesterday and it has disappeared so will try again today. Hope you are having a wonderful New Year's Day.
I went to bed early, but woke up when they started shooting off fireworks. That lasted about half an hour and then the power went out for a couple minutes. It was just enough that you had to start everything over again and fix all the clocks and such.
We had a horrible storm last evening and the rain was coming straight down. The side of the garage looked like it had one of those high priced wall falls that people put in their houses built against a wall. We had tornados around here too, but all is quiet now. It was really warm yesterday, but it is chilly again this morning.
We aren't doing much today. I am going to send Jack to the store later to get some pork n beans and a couple cans of sliced new potatoes. I am making meat loaf, scalloped potatoes and baked beans for dinner and discovered I had neither potatoes nor beans. I find I like the new potatos better than slicing regular potatoes and have used them for a couple years now.
I haven't made much headway on the second sock and I should be ashamed of myself. I guess if she hadn't already gotten a gift from me I would have rushed it more, but this is kind of afterthought now. I do need to get them finished and shipped off though.
I have been tickled at Jack. His was in on a contest picking football bowl winners. He said he has done this for several years and has always picked the wrong team the first bowl game played. He said this year he won the first bowl game played and thought that insured him sucess. Well, his picks have been the worst ever! He has picked about 80% of the games wrong this year!
I can't remember what you gals were talking about so no personals today. I will pick them back up tomorrow. You gals have a fine rest of the weekend. Faye
