GOOD EVENING MAGNOLIAS

I really thought I had posted earlier but guess I just thought I had. We just got back from mid weeks Bible study and it was a chilly walk from there to here which is just next door. Sunday is pot luck day and I need to decide on what I will take. Will may have a suggestion. I know he said something about one of Schwans Lemon pies. He comes this week so we had better buy one. So far I know there will be chicken, ham and meat balls there so I can go from there and not repeat those things. I don't want to just take a pie. I can make some of my good Rhodes rolls and a pasta salad. Yep that will fit in besides of being real tasty. I didn't get much done today but getting things ready to mail. The last house I made that goes to CA and some cards. We got new tires put on the Jeep and they sure are spendy suckers. That Jeep got the most expensive Christmas present for sure. The ones we took off lasted for a long long time for many miles and we got the use out of them. A fellow we know wanted them to put on his truck for they still had some wear in them but not enough for where we like to take the Jeep. He just drives that old truck around locally so they will good for him for quite awhile.

JEAN Yep, I can walk and talk at the same time. Did you get your cards all addressed? Tis the season.

DONNA FAYE I am sad to hear you are having intestinal destress. Hopefully it goes away soon. I like your idea of how you will spend Christmas. There is just the two of us and we are planning on going to I-Hop. Our anniversary is Christmas Eve and we will go out for dinner that night.

SUSAN What a neat deal to get so many swin suits you like and for free! You will be stilin' for sure. Sounds like you have a busy schedule ahead of you.

Well MAGNOLIAS I am gone. Type at y'all later.

Susan -- You were definitely on the move yesterday! How nice of the lady to bring new swim suits to the Y, and you could make your own selections! I hope the weather fizzles out before it gets to you tomorrow. It's better to cancel an activity than to take a chance getting caught in a storm.

Maggie -- When we left church tonight it was doing "something" -- you couldn't see it but it was on the windshield and you could feel it. I see the deck has a white coating on it now. It's been that damp cold all day today. I know tires are expensive but it's a good thing to have safe tires on your Jeep. I love my car in the snow; it has better, snow friendly, tires and more weight than the car did. Most of my cards are done except for a few that I'm debating on. We haven't heard from them in a couple years so think maybe this is the year to skip them.

I need to do some picking up before I head to bed. See you all tomorrow.
