Hi

Back from the world.
Am up a bit early but Brandon was up at 6 and he has this thing where he tryes to get the fire going in the wood stove.......which he has been told over and over not to touch. I caught him doing it again this morning. Told him I was gonna kick his ass then he promised not to do it again and shoock my hand.......hmmmmm......anyway......told him i would royally kick his ass if i caught him doing it again..
Robert had his turn for throwing up on Thursday and Pierre on Saturday night. Fun stuff ehh? I wonder if I’m gonna be next. It’s funny but usually I don’t get sick even when everyone else around here does.

What’s on the agenda for today? Well.....I’m a bit unsure how it’s gonna work since I told my Dad and my friend I’d be over in the morning. I think I will try to go to Dad’s earlier than 10 which is the time i told him I’d be there. He called me to have me come over so I could see how the wine is being made. (I’m not that interested.) First Dad told me he wanted my help but a few weeks later said I didn’t have to help. (Which is good because I didn’t want to do it since I have other things to do as well. Like.....dresses and baskets. I told my friend I’d probably stop by today but wasn’t sure and I really want to go because we are almost done two of the four dresses. (I was there sewing last week.) As far as the baskets go......I painted one coat on a medium and small one. The small one took about 3 hours and the medium took about 6. (Of course this is broken up into times when I can do it. I think I will time them to see exactly how long it is taking. Shouldn’t take as long for the second coats. Will time them too.)
Went to Rob Macintosh’s and registered for some beautiful crystal. It is called Winter Rose and I just love it. Did I already tell u the story of me getting my cousin a few of these pieces? Anyway.....I did buy her a candy dish and a vase outta this collection and that was last June.......since then I’ve loved them so......since I’m still in love with them I am not going to deny myself registering for them. So goes my theory. There is a large salad bowl, small bowls, mugs, a vase, a clock, a picture frame, and a platter that I put on the registare but there are a few things I didn’t registare for like the expresso cups the bigger vase but I did put down mostly everything in that collection. I also regestered for wine glasses. I couldn’t beleive how expencive they were $20.00 each!! I only registered for 6 where I registared for 13 of the bowls and mugs, etc. which come in packages of 4 for about $30.00. Anyway, I hope this does it with the talk of gifts. Hard to believe but I’m getting sick and tired of talking about what people are gonna give us. It isn’t about the gifts damn it!! The only other thing about gifts.....and hopefully this is the last of me talking about it......is.......I talked to Pierre about registering for siding....ya....sounds strange right......but that’s what I think we are gonna do. Then they get a certificate for how many pieces of siding they purchased. I think they are about 5-6 dollers a piece.

well i guess i should run now. the kids are getting ready for school and i want to jump in the shower before the bus comes that way i can get going right after they leave for school.
bye all
lots o’ love
Christine
