To my FABULOUS partner Rhonda:Oh no....I have been wondering about you since you have been gone for a few days. Sorry you are so sick and having to work in that environment. How are the new floors? When I got my new floors at first I was constantly cleaning and vacuuming trying to keep them new, but after awhile, it just doesn't happen like it should. I am so bad! Things are coming right along..I have gotten a few "presents" and having such a GREAT time shopping! Looking forward to doing more..... My debit card # got stolen a couple of weeks ago so I have not been able to do much on-line but got my new card today - YAY! However, I am a little nervous about putting the info on-line so am trying to think of a safer alternative to protecting my info. Going to Durant, OK (when you are from OK, it is pronounced "DOO-rant" - ha ha) tomorrow evening for a 2nd birthday party for my great-niece! Taking my Mom with me so it will be fun. Other than that, my weekend is pretty relaxed! How about you? Edited by user Thursday, November 08, 2012 8:05:36 PM(UTC)

Hi
sheila set up a paypal account, it uses your bank account for $ put it is much safer than using your debit card. Plus you don't have to have the card in front of you, you checkout using paypal and are sent to there site to log in and ok the transaction. Very easy and very safe.
Jess still thinking of a few goodies to add to your stocking

Good morning Sisters...
HEY MISS SHEILA>......the first note the DR gave me was only for 3 days...UGHHH...like that was going to make it better. NOT! My boss sure loved the idea of me being back on my welder too....she made a snide remark and then giggled...REALLY?!!! HOW RUDE! So I stuck it out as long as I could...thru her nasty remarks and hatefullness....then I called my DR back and she gave me a 2 wks off the welder note. I'm sure she will really be happy with me after getting it MOnday! LOL....ughhhhh...She will punish me for sure....evil I say...plain evil!
Thanks ...I hope you enjoy the trip with your Mother. SOunds like fun. I'm sorry your CC was stolen! I've not had that happen but I did have it hacked and they spent $800 on my card....OMG...was furious...but I did get it all back. SO now I'm more careful where to shop as well. BUT I DO use PAYPAL...and if it's done...it's 100% guaranteed to be returned...their protection policy.
Going to do some crafting today and this weekend....
HUGs to all

I do have a PP account, but doesn't that have to be tied to your bank account or credit card or debit card? How does that work?
I guess you could say mine as hacked as I have the card, they just got the # someway. I wish I knew how they got it so I could protect it better...but then, these criminals are pretty smart now days...and they can get it no matter how hard you try!

Sheila....that is how they did me too. Even if it happens...paypal had to put ALL the money back onto my account. I then changed my CARD # thru my bank. It is a scarey process...and it makes you think alot harder on where to purchase. I'm sooo sorry it happened to you too. CROOKS are everywhere and are smarter than we give credit for. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr   We work hard for that money and they TAKE/STEAL it with ease....GET A JOB and earn like we do..... I ordered some more things for you....I'm sure the one thing you will enjoy.

Yup had my card stolen online a couple times. Company is good though and returned my money andissued me anew card. I have learned that the symbol you order from should be with an s meaning secure. HTTPS:// Always look before entering your number It means it is secured. Crooks everywhere. we had our Company card abused by a local store employee just last week. That employee is going to be is so much trouble with their company and ours. That company took care of the card but our company is still going after them. WHOOO WEEE. stupid people.
Anyways I am all done now. YAY just got to label and wrap. gotta go into attic and get my paper. Been working on lots of xmas projects this year. YAYAY.
HELLO PARTNER, I sure hope your gonna luv what I got you cause if you don't You can send it back to me and I will play with it. HA HA. Gotta luv it. I know you will luv it. cause I do. great colors. WHOO HOOO. Talk to you all later gotta get back to crafting and cleaning the house and decorate. I am an early bird. YIPPEEE

So I am doing tags now and I was wondering how everyone is doing the writing part. I have written say #12 SURPRISE. Do I put DAY 1 on that then cause I want it opened last? reverse the order? Just wondering what everyone else is doing. I labeled the tags like this #12 Surprise but I want it opened last so I have room to say open last or Day 12. Eaks should have asked first before writing on my tags. anyways

The one you want opened last, should be #1! Its a count down! Start with 12 and count down to #1. If you have labeled them the other way thats fine but I would write open last on it!

Dashing through the snow
on one horse open sleigh,
Over the fields we go,
laughing all the way
Bells on bob tail ring,
Making spirits bright,
what fun it is to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight
Jingle bells, jingle bells
jingle all the way
Good morning! Just popping in real quick to say hello!
I have a couple more days taken care of Penny! I can't wait to see what you think!
Have a great day!

HELLO PARTNER, A HUGE HELLO from the freezing Upper Peninsula. Ha ha. We got snow so I am ready for christmas. Put up my tree last night and worked over an hour fluffing in out. WHEW tuckered. lights tonight. SO that song is perfect. Will be playing music tonight and drinking hot cocoa. YUPPPERS. There was lots of accidents with our first big snow. People just don't learn that the first few snows the road is changing and it is slick out no matter if it is 4 wheel drive or not. ITs all those 4 wheel drives that either was in the ditch or caused the accidents. Just stupid.
I am still waiting on that one item to show up in the mail. SO now I am making something to put in as extra cause I ran across the pattern last night and Said OOOOH SHe will luv this so I am making an extra. YUPPERS. REady to wrap and take pics as soon as that last item shows up. I have it all laid out and ready to go. WHOO HOO. So excited to see if she likes it all. TAGS ARE DONE!! I wrote on them OPEN first, Second, Third and the other side of the tag is the label that identifies what number is what on the list. So I mixed it up and surprise will be last. The extras open anytime. WHOO HOOO. Antsy pantsy here. ha ha. Have a great day.

Just did my shopping for Thanksgiving Dinner. We keep it simple just Hubby and kids. No other family,though my daughters boyfriend will be celebrating with us, it is our one holiday just for us. I'm from such a large family when we get together at xmas time there are close to 50 people, I can't take that twice just weeks apart!!
Jess I haven't wrapped everything yet but I do have the paper and tags just waiting for me. I leave for vacation on Nov 24 so a lot of my efforts are preparing for that.
Hope you all have a great week and Happy Thanksgiving!

Penny I hope you have a wonderful trip! I completely understand about the holiday gatherings! I have to do two this year  . We are having our Christmas dinner on the 14th so we can celebrate with my sister. she is going out of town Christmas day so we have to do it early! They are driving to Disney and then on a Bahamas cruise. So not fair ! Its there big family trip before she starts trying for another baby! I am so excited! I can't wait for her to get pregnant again! Christmas day is going to be pretty laid back around here this year! Which is fine with me. I am still going to cook a ham and make biscuits tough !
