Chatty, your beautiful card arrived today...thank you for thinking of me and for the beautiful artistry inside. The crocheted cross is hanging on the table that holds my nativity set. There was an empty spot that had been bothering me (didn't know what to put there) and your cross fit perfectly in every way! Fills me with joy everytime I look at it and imagine you sitting in Vegas knitting those with such deep love and care. It radiates love. Thank you.

After Christmas, Chatty, I will take the cross off the Chatty Tree and place it on my night stand and use it in my bible, too. You're so thoughtful to have done this...not to mention patient...I know how tiny that crochet needle is in order to make such small stitches. Bravo, Woman!!!!

Chatty....I am in awe of what you do with yarn, darlin'. Yes, it's more than okay you're a crocheter. Your fingers create (from one strand of thread...think about that) such beautiful creations...I used to crochet so I know what goes into making something, especially the crosses...you have to keep track of where you are, how many stitches you've made, ending, turning at the right place...not to mention the fingers/hands that are constantly moving. You, my dearest friend, have my utmost respect for your works of beauty out of yard.

Dee, got your card today. "A" is with us, and loves it too. She asked if she can put it on her own window sill. I'll sneak it back to the other boomer cards when she goes back to her parents,...but then again that may be in weeks.
Dee, did you write that beautiful poem? Good grief, girl, how many talents do you have? Thank you soooo much.
I was relieved to hear you got my card, chatty. You never know with the snail mail.
Tomorrow my brother will arrive. I wish you were all coming too. I'm not kidding.
Sending love to all my Boomer friends. Doesn't matter if you participated in the card exchange or not; you are all a big part of my life.

Yes, everyone here is part of my life too. Many thoughts spent on all of you. Early this morning, while trying to fall back to sleep, I dreamt I was biking through a small town. I lost my purse - weird - and had to back-track, but couldn't find it.I wondered if orchid could help me. Funny. I guess I was in Canada! LOL. Was there snow?? (THere's no snow right now where we are ..at foot of mountains. I'm not kiddin'.)

I GOT YOUR CARD TODAY EDELWEISS!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO... gosh, I didn't think it was ever going to get here...I'm so glad it did. Absolutely beautiful tree and I love how you made the card yourself...I love the extra's you added...the star at the top of the tree and the tiny trees inside...it took 16 days to arrive...isn't it weird how it took some places longer to get theirs than others? Thank you again for the homemade card...next year it will join the rest of my Christmas cards from BWS Christmases past. Love you hon!

Wiping the sweat off my brow. THANK YOU DEE! LOL
I just put "A" into bed. Another reason to wipe the sweat off my brow. She is even energetic when sleeping. Looks like we will have our little angel for a month, maybe longer.
My brother drove 6am to the Muenich airport this morning, just to find out his flight was canceled. Freezing weather conditions was the reason. So now he's here again till Tuesday. I had just finished cleaning the guest room, when I got his call. Out come the bed sheets again...and the coat hangers, guest towels, soap, shampoo, and all the rest of the stuff for guests. After a full house of 6-9 guests....I can not fathom how big families do this day after day after day. But I am happily exhausted. And I will survive.
Hugs from Germany!!! I miss being here, but am slowly catching up.
