    Night all, just came in to make a flying visit. Its a bit like Smaarty said: read everything and everyone is gone.

    Don't stay too long playing on your laptops and ipads.

    Love their web connections

    One is never enough.

    So, I just thought....here I go.  Glad everyone has been accounted for safe and fairly sound.  Sas....and everyone.  Loved looking at the glass.  I will have to go back to that 'replacement' page.  When I opened it....I saw a picture of a ? red glass ? and I have a set of 12 that a friend gave me.  I offered to  pay but not too loudly as she likes to do what she does and not be "paid" back as it were.  She loves good karma and is very deserving of it.....so I don't fight it.

    She always told me, just use them.  Well, I put 6 in my cupboard and the rest in my display cabinet.  Just wondering now....never checked, what do I really have.  They are red with the fat rings going all the way down.

    Morning ladies - loved the discussion of glass and dishes.  When my Mom died, sis and I split her dishes and glass.  I have a couple really nice pieces of the American Brilliant Cut and some very nice carnival glass.  One piece hubby and I bought for my mom before she died at an auction for $70.  I took it back.  :)  I also got her set of Desert Rose dishes.  For the longest time they were in a box in my basement, and I sincerely considered selling them.  When we moved I decided to unpack them.  I threw the ones that were chipped and use them for our every day dishes.  Sometimes I feel it's a waste, but when I use them I always think of my Mom and Grandma, so I just enjoy 'em.  No one in my family would get the enjoyment out of them that I do, so I figure that using them myself is best.  When I die they can fight over the rest.  My family is a mess and mostly estranged anyway, so what the hey....

    Gumby HiI like that you are using your Desert Rose as everyday.. it's nice to feel special everyday. Poor Ds living in an area Tamp that the housing cost are astronomical. He'll never fit all the stuff in. LOL. Any recommendations on what kind of Mouse to buy? How's the new house going :) I goofed on getting a JennAire didn't understand the sales guy had a floor model for 1700. Reg price to order around 2500. OH well.

    I love American Brilliant Cut I was 50 when I learned about it. It was yikes how can I be this old, junking for 30 years and never hear of ABC glass. I even had a couple of pieces and didn't know it. Glad to see you here :)

    Teka - what a beautiful picture!!!

    I can't say that I have any beautiful dishes that have been handed down to me, but I have been collecting Rowe Pottery for many years. It's a type of blue and gray pottery that fits just about anywhere. :) 

    Tired today and lacking any type of motivation. I tried the coffee, but it didn't cut it. I think I miss my gym. Before surgery, I would go 4-5 days a week. It was MY time. Me, my headphones, and my own little world. I would go in the morning...even on the days I didn't feel like going, I went...it motivated me for the rest of my day. I so badly want to go work up a good sweat, but my BS says no, not yet. I think she doesn't trust me. LOL! She knows I like to lift weights and push myself. Dang it! Guess maybe it's time to pour another cup of joe. 

    Feeling down today for no particular reason. Maybe I'm dreading the RO and MO appts that are coming this week. Maybe i'm tired of not being able to run, run, and run some more. Sorry...just venting.

    GG -- interesting often the behavior of family members when someone passes on.  Struck by the "pleasant" division you and your sis made.  Didn't happen in my family.  My sister was going to get a truck and cart away everything my mother had.  Mom knowing about what would happen had made me the executor of her estate.   Had a great deal of concern going on, but as it turned out.....a few days after the funeral and lawyer appts. my sister went back to her home in California -- home one day, then died the following day ( no one knows if it was a diabetic coma or heart attack ) in her car.  Still needed the lawyer but no referred disputes etc. 

    This would have worked out likely anyway as I am not a SERIOUS fighter.  I now have things of my mom's I treasure, but still to me the bottom line is....they only represent her, they are NOT her.   I'm glad to have them though as I know she would be happy about it. 

    I don't know why it is so important ( other than the obvious -- that a loved one hoped you would have something ) to have things that belonged to someone else.  Even more so when you have given little to the relationships over-all.  Another one of life's perplexing questions.  I know I'm late on this cause. just looked up at the bar above and see another page.

    midnightDeb, I also love that blue & gray salt-glazed Rowe Pottery and own several pieces.  I've been to their pottery works in Cambridge WI, just outside Madison.  I am such a fan of pottery, just the idea that you take clay from the earth, form and fire it, and it's a useful thing.

    ((hugs)) to all with upcoming appt's!  ♥

    Just checking in guys...today is a better day....so maybe there is hope!

    I feel like a terrible mix of bad hangover/early pregnancy from hell going here. Im fighting naseua, appetite is funky and nothing tastes good. My head feels heavy and there is a weird detached feeling that I have, until my 4 year old starts being loud and then I'm fully "engaged". lol

    Hopefully tomorrow I continue to improve, I honestly don't know that I can do this for 5 more rounds. they say it gets easier.....
