What's everybody doing today?

[snappy1]

I actually thought about you when I got up at 3:30! I thought, "I bet if I call Snappy she'll be up"!! Glad I didn't !!

I was up at 4, but stayed in bed until 5:30 so I didn't wake up DH.

Mine were on the clothesline in the summer kitchen so smoked. The water was brown and stinky . I splurged several years ago and got H Kimball’s American clothes pins. They were $2 each. I’m not about to pitch them.

And don't eat them when they come out of the oven!!

Got up and built a fire. Guess I let it go out last night. It's kind of chilly in here this morning.
We got 6 inches of snow over night. We were planning on going shopping down south today. I'm not sure that want to drive a hundred miles in the snow pulling a trailer. Could leave the trailer home, or wait until tomorrow.

I just get the cheap packages and the $ store and replace them when they fall apart, but they last a while

LOL debating if I should splurge and buy a few new dinner plates at the $ store. Most of ours have at least one chip in them. How is that for cheap? I think I will buy a few in case we have dinner guests. Would be sad to cook good food and serve it on crappy looking plates....but most of the time we have guests I get paper plates anyway to avoid doing so many dishes

Sad early morning for us. Our guests that came in from New Mexico, they come in often to visit...the man worked for my husband for many years and they've always been close. He had a heart attack in the early morning hours, wife doing CPR. No good. He passed. The house was crazy with EMT's, Coroner, and the mortuary came and picked him up. We are all so sad. She's finally resting now, will shower, then I'll take her to the mortuary. He'll be cremated, and he wanted his ashes spread some in the Virginia mountains where he lived, and some in the New Mexico mountains where they've lived for a while now. They were leaving for TX this morning to have Thanksgiving with his sister. I'm sure his wife will stay on with us till the ashes are ready, then she's planning to drive to TX and her and the sister will do the arrangements with the family for spreading the ashes. The first EMT here went sprinting in here, thinking it was my husband, running to the back of the house. One daughter arrived here last night, another will be arriving with her boyfriend in a couple of hours.

I am so very sorry for you and all involved. May there be lots of support for you all, and may some of the memories that you shared get all of you through this week and beyond. Hugs.

 

[Mountain trapper]

Sorry to hear about that Amish. Small consolation, but at least he was surrounded by family and friends.

 

[Morgan101]

So sorry for your loss, Amish Heart. That must have been quite a shock. Prayers sent to all of you and family.

May his soul, and all the souls of the Faithful Departed rest in Peace.

Hugs to you Amish, prayers for his wife and all of you!!
