    Hubby and I had another great Thanksgiving with my side of our blended family. I'm so proud of each of them and would like for you to meet them, albeit video style! I hope you like videos, because here are a couple videos of the shop that we're in (...

  • Just Looking Around this Place and That, With some Greek Tales

    Posted on Wednesday November 18th, 2009 at 11:25 in greek mythology, remicade, fall color, property photos

    This past Thursday was my day for Remicade treatment. Trust me, those are days in which absolutely nothing else gets accomplished. The infusions take three to four hours and they give me a dose of 50mg Benadryl. I look forward to a nice looong nap...

  • A Few Random Thoughts to Share

    Posted on Saturday November 7th, 2009 at 16:38

    My childhood girlfriend, Joanna, sent this to me in an email. Although I thought the email was fun to read, it was also quite true - but, if my Dad was still alive, I would never confess that to him. Just wanted to share with you: ...

  • Shop Photos, Christmas Ornaments and an After Shot

    Posted on Thursday November 5th, 2009 at 21:34

    This is one of those seasons. You know, a season that you feel you've been working either on or toward all year? I bought several small artificial Christmas trees last year when everything was marked down to something like 1/3 of the original pri...

  • Flu Shots and A Few Shop Photos to Share

    Yes, I have had mine! Have you had yours? Flu shots, that is! Hubby and I took advantage of the free flu shots that Exide Technologies (battery plant where Hubby works) offered to their workers and families a couple weeks ago. Then, just yesterda...

Being a Grampa myself I read with interest your piece on your new family member. And yes, he is a good weight, though I came close and I'm a twin.

My bro came out first, weighing in at just under 8lbs. Our mum thought then that I would be a scrawny thing, I mean she couldn't have two woppers could she?
I came along half an hour later, feet first, and weighed 8lb 1oz. No wonder mum could hardly get around.

But if you think that's big - my wife's aunt had twins, both of em over 10lbs - phew!

Enjoy your little pride and joy and try to see him as much as possible - you'll never have this time with him again.

Sher has been one of my first supporters when I just started blogging and to my delight I found myself still on top of her blogroll! So what a shame she has no more reviews yet. Good action on Jenn T. and I can only subscribe to what she wrote.

I know blogger Sher from a trash-to-treasure forum and have been well-familiar with her blog for a few years now. She puts a lot of effort into the pieces she shares, showing helpful before and after photos, snippets of her life, stories and all sorts of good things related to crafting and the home. When I saw she'd come here to BlogCatalog, I was delighted. So I hope you gang will all give her a good welcome. She's a nice lady, with a great sense of humor!
