I don't know if I've mentioned it already, but I suggested we could hang lights on the house -- never have had them in 45 years here -- last Sunday. Son thought it a great idea so I ordered some icicle-lights via inter-net right away.

A couple of hours later, son and D-I-L came home with clips, lights, and an outside snowflake projector that he and his wife promptly put up. They also said they wanted to put up a real tree instead of my usual artifical one.

I take these things as more signs that D-I-L is feeling more at home here and with me. I thank God (and whoever gifted the store with an old Singer machine) that I could bring it home for her. I have gotten so many blessings since I gave it to her.

Hello everybody. DH and I saw some 6.5' Douglas Furs at a local store here in Fl. for $120...:ep
kinda steep. Our kids have grown and we usually get a small modest tree. I should have started a tree farm.:)
