I will say goodnight Friends as you are starting your day, I am a little later tonight as there are Australian True Stories on Monday night & I love them, some wonderful people you learn about.

Martha so good to see you back, I can imagine how you have enjoyed your holiday with your family, will look forward to hearing all about it. What does PA stand for Martha, I could not work that one out.

Bea I hope you will be able to get your tests today, it isn't easy waiting is it can be stressful, do you think the extra worry may be making DH's arthritis worse it certainly does mine, I am very grateful at the moment, pain has been a little easier by lunchtime, what a difference it makes to have a few hours that you can concentrate better, we even went over to see the family late today after I had my hair cut, had to pick up some stitches on DIL's knitting that had come off the needle, she is wonderful with her eyes , she knits the childrens school jumpers so well, but her eyes do not allow her to pick up stitches. It was a lovely visit all sitting around the kitchen table, everyone talking at once, Emma 9 stood up on a chair once & said I want a turn to say something, very articulate our DGC as you can see.

Well I have rambled again, Bye for now HUGS Doreen.

You make me smile as I see you all about the table.I love it that your gd wanted to get a word in.

Pa, stands for the American state of Pennsylvania.Pretty state.The spring flowers there are just beautiful.Of course we had bad weather but the tulips and iris and the bushes in bloom still can be appreciated through a window.

hope you have a really good night. The days are so much better when we can sleep well.martha

Oh boy, wish you were around years ago when I was knitting and would drop those stitches and there was no way in the world that I could pick them up correctly. I would try one way, it would look wrong, so then try the other way, and it still looked wrong. I finally gave up knitting and taught myself how to crochet. I give your DIL lots of credit for continuing and not giving up! Isn't it fun to just sit around the table and just gab? Those are the family times that I remember the most; everybody just being themselves and coming up with the funniest memories and comments about what is going on in their lives! Have a good day. Hugs. Bea
