Working on my eBid shops and doing well.

Hi Charlotte
Hi Carolyn and all those WFC people

We had about a week of warm temps (60-70 degrees) which is not normal for November.

Managed to get replace the 2 basement window frames and the living room outer frame.
I thought I had the lawn raked, but I may need to do it one more time since the storm.

Yesterday, it was 70 degrees : This morning, it’s 40 degrees.
Yesterday, warm but a bit cloudy.
Come home from work and do a little on the computer before disconnecting for the storm.

The Storm: Lightning like crazy. 70 MPH winds. Tornado warnings. No power for at least 8 hours.

This morning, cold and calm. Need to pick up branches.
So glad that I got the window frames replaced. The one frame I had to go down to the field stones to replace with the rot.
Next time, I think I will pull the windows out and put in glass blocks. (It’s easier to cement)

I still need to work on the garage door, or to tarp it before the snow flies.

I have a couple of letters to write and then some Pinterest pinning.
Hoping to get back to my Weebly website and work on some more pages.

PS the cats are SASSY and full of PI$$ and Vinegar.

Hi, everybody!

Got back from Rehab late last night – I’m fine now – really – but I had another relapse of being unable to walk – total breathless.

13 days later, here I am. They did a great job on me – strangely enough, no medications needed. no oxygen after the first 8 hours, and I’m good to go.It was quite an unpleasant experience, not being able to breath.

I just don’t know why it happens, and neither do any of the doctors.

Could well have been a fluid buildup – sort of the reverse of what happened the last couple of times.

Anyway. I’m just fine. Hugs to all!

Carolyn

Hi Carolyn
So glad that you are feeling better.

I have finally been working on my Weebly website for personal and for shopping with links to my eBid shop.

https://quiltpolice.weebly.com/

. I still have to put my other quilts in my “personal items” but I do have the charity quilts that I have done in the past.
. I have part of my quiltpolice items posted and linked.
. I spent most of the day working on this and figuring out the ins and outs of making this site.
. I feel pretty good that I got this far.

. I have to do some shopping tomorrow to replace canned food and frozen meat. I been cooking and making chili, chicken soup, and sloppy joe mix to freeze. (So I don’t have any food going past the expiration and I can have some quick food to heat up).
. I now need a new microwave since the paint is starting to bubble inside and I here some crackling when in use. All I need is the paint falling off and bare metal exposed to the micro-waves.

It is cold!

We are having S N O W.
It’s not heavy and some grass is peeking out so far.
This afternoon, it’s suppose to rain/slush.

Still working on my weebly site for Quiltpolice.
I have my charity quilts history.
I have my regular quilt history loaded, but still editing and such. This part I haven’t updated/published yet. I am planning by the end of the week to get that done and I will let you(s) know.

Had another sale. Making more food to make and freeze a portion of it for later meals.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING everyone.

Wet, rainy and damp day.
Spent the day making a couple of pots of chicken soup for the freezer.
Tomorrow, I want to make a pot of mashed potatoes, some to eat and the rest to freeze. And I am hoping to make macaroni and cheese for the freezer.

Been working on my weebly site. Not quite ready to update / publish the new postings.

Hope everyone is safe this past holiday.

Have tried to start another weebly site and really boo boo. Waiting for them to undo the account so that I can get into the right area for another free website. I was hoping to have the clothing site almost done or completed by now. It’s not as detailed as the Quiltpolice site.

It was a little warmer the past couple of days. I was at the farm where one set of window were blown out and getting all the glass picked up. Called the owner and she called the handyman to get some plywood to cover the gaping hole.

Still haven’t fixed the garage doors. BUT I think I figure out why the “better” door gets a bit sticky. It looks like the guide wire has loosen up.

Hi Bette! I wish I had your energy! Putting all those ready to eat meals in the freezer is a great idea! Love your theme, Just a material girl! I embroidered some Aunt Martha dish towels when I was a teenager, (so long ago ;) ) Your shop looks fantastic! A couple months ago I made a spur of the moment trip to my son’s to tend his doggies while he was on a fire. Spent the mornings weeding and puttering around then the afternoons painting kindness rocks, relaxing and playing with the doggies as there wasn’t much to do when not leaving the house because of covid, but it was really nice.

Merry Christmas WFC members.

Yesterday it was in the 50’s and today in the teen’s with a wind chill and light flakes.

Emily mentioned that they sold their home and moving/ living with some relatives in Wisconsin for a period of time before looking for a new home.

I have been cleaning out one of my rooms and working on some internet things.
I have pulled some items to be added to my craft shop as I find them in the cleaning of this room.
I did a few loads of laundry of fabric that need to be cleaned. A couple of pieces will be for sale.
I came across a bag of silk shirts that I started to rip apart for the fabric that will be sold as silk scraps.

I have 2 weebly sites and the 3rd one is in the works.
https://quiltpolice.weebly.com/ – - – This is the crafting one
https://chakracord.weebly.com/ – - – - This is the metaphysical one.
Now I am working on the clothing site.

Oh, a black and white kitty (TOM) has shown up a few times. I think this is the black and white one that showed up 2 years ago when Dottie and her kittens did.

I feel pretty good that things are getting done.

Well, just want to wish you all a Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas Bette and all our Word Challenge friends!
Six degrees for the low this morning. Trying to finish up gifts and made a trip to the grocery store this morning to stock up for the weekend. The store was packed and the stuff I needed was out of stock. Who would have imagined broccoli was in demand for Christmas! Did not want to go to another crowded store but we will do fine with the stuff we have, just not worth the risk of covid.

Had another sale on eBid through my Weebly website link.

Will start going through my listings to adjust shipping.
I am changing only some of them in the higher First Class ounces and Medium Flat rates.
I guess the adjustments I made with the October postage rate increase covered the January rate increase.

I have ripped apart 20+ silk tops for making silk scrap fabric bundles to sell. I did find a couple of really nice tops and have to inspect them for any faults or they will get ripped apart, too.

I have 2 black and white tom cats that have been coming in the evening for food. (plus a dumb possum, too)
Both tuxedo cats – one with and one without a mustache.

Talked with Emily – she is okay.
Talked with Carolyn – She is doing good.

So far, the winter really hasn’t been that bad.
The boys are enjoying the playtime outside. They do take breaks to go inside to quick warm up.

I have a little bit of tax work to summarize and it will be ready to file in February. I also have to do a Sales and Use tax form by the end of January.
