SO pleased you made it Cynths !!!

Dea Xxx <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

LOL!

Dea-trust me-no one had any joy in my"pat down". OH didn't even really notice it. He thought I was "wanded".

I think I've become the "ideal candidate" for these sorts of things at our airport. I don't cry,curse,pull a gun,offer a bribe,etc.

Love,
Mo <3 <3

Made it!!!! So grateful.

OH's meds hadn't kicked in enough for him to manage church this morning but I went with my daughter. Came home and had coffee and he had come round. Went off to son's and were there for 4 hours which was brilliant. :-D :-D :-D


Had a lovely lunch with all the trimmings and everyone behaved themselves - from the 2 year old upwards!!


Got home about an hour ago so am nicely settled down.


Sorry about your daughter Persie......and I do hope things get sorted out for her very soon.

Also hoping that LK's family and Gins family soon start improving.....what a lot we are!

Chris....count every day with your mum as a blessing :-D <3


Waving Happy Christmas to Maureen :-)~~~~~~~ :-) You could just pop in and say hello to my oldest friend who lives in San Antonio...... :-D


Going for a wander round.....

How are you doing Ginns ?

Have you are 'yours' got through the day ???

Dea Xxx

Thank you Maureen,

I have had many a 'pat down' at the airports !! - I think they do it for the 'joy of it' sometimes ;-)

It must be nice to be in warm weather !!!

Nice to see you.

Dea Xxx <3

Merry Christmas to all!

LK-What would your OH's text/speech phone do with that??

Chris...so sorry to hear your Mum is not well. I did wonder where you were!

OH and I are spending the week in San Antonio (Texas).
Been here before for Xmas and it's a treat. Warmish weather and good food.

I did manage to get a "pat down" at the NY (islip) airport .
No idea why the bells and whistles went off when I went through the scanner thing. I think I heard (deaf in one ear) the nice security man say something about "random
checks".
Good enough.
I think the woman doing the pat down was as baffled as I was. She kept saying "sorry,sorry" and I kept saying "Don't worry about it!".

Love to all on the thread,
Mo
:-) :-) :-) :-)

Did you get there Cynths ?? - I DO hope you did!! <3 <3 <3

Dea Xxx

Hi LK - Hope you enjoyed your Roast lamb !! - I had missed news that your grand-daughter was poorly - perhaps it was said on the 'other side' ??

Anyway, hope they will all be better soon! - It seems that almost everyone is poorly this Christmas - I am pleasantly surprised that I feel reasonably well !! ;-)

You enjoy your Christmas Dinner on the 27th - It does not matter when you have it as long as you are all abole to be together. <3

I am STUFFED !!! - My lunch was beautiful, even though I had not yet mastered my new meat thermometer so it got to a higher temperature than it should have done before I noticed. - Not TOO overcooked though thank goodness!

Must go and sort my kitchens now though - I think a 'bomb has hit' !! :-D :-D

See you all later.

Dea Xxx

Laughing because OH has a phone that will text from speech.
He said Happy Christmas and it came back as Happy Holidays.
A pc phone? :-D

Just popping in to wish every one a Happy Christmas.

I have spent last two days in a mad rush but I am relaxing now. I did not manage Xmas cards though. Grand daughter is better today but my so has been sick all night. I am not cooking my turkey until the 27th when everyone is here. Roast lamb today..

Sorry to hear about those with ailments and worries. Not much fun.
One of the two work funerals has taken place but the other one is not until 7th January. It seems such a long time to wait.

Take care all.

So very sorry to hear that Chris!

As you say, all you can do is take each day as it comes and enjoy every moment as much as you can.

Hugs to you all.

Dea Xxx <3 <3 <3

Oh Chris, we over lapped with our posts

So sorry to hear about your mom, I hope you have the best day ever day and cherish every minute <3

Your poor daughter Pers....I hope she will get out of there as soon as poss. We're a right bunch on here arent we!

Happy Christmas to everyone, have a nice day and chill out......plenty of time to chat and have fun as there is bugger all on telly :-D

Lol, thanks Dea :-)

(got the best thing here for Christmas I could have in my lovely Mum, she was diagnosed 6 wks ago with a tumour on lung, lump in neck, and 2 clots on lung, (all found on a CT scan) I was then told she only had 4/5 weeks to live, But she's still going strong at the moment, and I'm taking things a day at a time, putting on a brave smile here, while cooking all things festive today though, hoping nothing too exciting hasn't happened on GR in my little absences!, lol)

Chris :)

Many thanks Chris - and the same to you !!! <3

I hope you helped yourself to some 'nibbles' on the way through !

Dea Xxx

I'd just like to say Happy Christmas, and best wishes for the New Year, to all 'fred's' posters, and anybody else who looks in!.

Have a great day :-)

Chris :)

A Merry Christmas Day to you all!

I have set out some hams and cheeses, nuts, fruits, crudites + dips, crisps and nibblies and a few mince pies.

Do help yourselves while you prepare your Christmas lunch.

Dea Xxx <3 <3

OOhh Persie - your poor daughter and her family are having a horrid time!

I DO hope that this hospital will get her sorted.

Hugs to you all,

Dea x <3 <3 <3

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.

To quote Tiny Tim:

"GOD BLESS US ALL"

I used to go to midnight mass once upon a time Cyns..so I understand about you not being happy that you can't attend..

my daughter, her husband, August and husband's mum went to Palmerston North yesterday afternoon 24th... this am got a call from daughter she is in A & E and is to be admitted into Palmie's Hospital... I thought she was joking, cause she was laughing... but no she is in hospital..... This is the third hospital since the 13th.... trying them all out :-S

Now we are just waiting to find out what is going on yet again..... :-S

Had Christmas lunch with eldest daughter and family.. all went off well.. OH sat in the lounge whilst we ate.. he had his optifast bar and a few lettuce leaves and a couple of strawberries :-)

Remember other side for your food Dea.... ;-)

Love you and leave you...

Persie :-) :-) :-)
