Marilyn, Your beautiful Christmas card arrived yesterday! You must have so much fun putting those together! Thank you, so much, for my first Christmas Card! You're a real inspiration! I love the Christmas fabric also! Those little snowmen are so cute! Can't wait to create something with them. You have inspired me to begin making cards..Christmas cards first...made the first one today. lol. It seems like I've been adding a new craft every 6 months. Did someone ask me to downsize???? Omgosh!

Judith, you are funny. How can a sewer, crafter, card maker, etc. Ever downsize? My mess seems to grow and grow, even though I have used and given away a ton. That reminds me to complete gathering up the things from the sewing room that my granddaughters will deliver to church for the Awanas store. Merry Christmas.

Marilyn I got a cute Santa card from you.I thought it was from the Card swap.He is adorable.I wish I would get to feeling better,so I can start creating and feel like me again.I feel like the Congestion monster.I am barking like a lion seal and my voice sounds like a frog.Oh and I gurgle when I breath.LOL,but not really funny.And my daughter makes fun of how I talk now,just being funny.But my thyroid messing up so much.Well,she has made me cry three times.Being sick is horrible.I can not stand not feeling like me.Prayers from anyone,please.

Marilyn -
Thank you so much for the cute card and fabric squares. You are so creative with your cards. I will put them to very good use - just not quite sure where.

Downsizing is NOT in a crafter/fabriholic/creater's vocabulary. I am a "collector" of craft supplies and fabric.

I love it, Rebecca. I can't quite tell - did you tie it in the corner squares? I'm not done with mine yet, but hope to work on it later this week - after a call to my insurance company.
I have a roof leak that leaks into my hallway just inside the front door. Thankfully, that's a lot less damage than a lot of people are facing though.

Did you lose some Shingles? I have learned that asphalt shingles should be put on in hot summer, so they will stick together. Ours were put on in Nov. And the north wind has raised some on the ridge cap.

No - no lost shingles. Ed says water is coming in around the nails in the sashing around the bottom of the window. The storms last night came with very strong winds, and sometimes just the angle of the rains cause a leak. I'd like to get it fixed, though, so we will see what the insurance says. They may say it is under my deductible, but I have a leak at the back of the house, too, so maybe between the two of them I will get something covered.

I hope so. My son was recently called to a house he built a dozen years ago. A tree had fallen on the porch. When he got up on the roof he could not believe what he saw. He called the home owner and asked why he had not replaced his roof. The man said his insurance agent sent someone to look at it and they said it was fine. Wade was not happy. He asked for the Insurance man's name and called him, all while still on top of the house. A new roof was approved. It was a metal roof beaten so badly it was bent around the rafters. Wade does not build tract homes. He does custom homes and people invest a lot of their money in them. He builds a good house and does not like it when they are mistreated. I just read a post to Mike, my former student whose home was badly damaged in the Rowlett tornado. She was giving him insurance advice. In a nut shell... insurance people are not always honest. Perhaps you should ask a carpenter you trust to look at both issues and give you an estimate of the cost to repair both problems, before you talk to the Insurance company. Then you would have knowledge to argue with, if necessary.

I don't know of any good contractors here - in the country it is hard to find reliable ones. There are a lot of good-ole-boys, but do not always follow through with the job or do it wrong.
* I need a concrete person to correct what another concrete guy did; it leaks into the garage every time we get a hard rain.
* I need to get the house painted and some boards around the windows replaced due to age.
* I need a rebuilt or new fence.
Does your son know anyone out here in east Texas?
