Melody itches but she's still alive, in SHARING 465

Isn't there a scripture about always pursuing knowledge and gaining wisdom and knowledge in things?

Which one would you like? 

The one about ever learning and never coming to a knowledge of the truth.....

Or the one about professing themselves to be wise they became fools.....

Or another one? 




And, yes, I'm currently just catching up on what I've missed of this thread.

[Chseeads]

Done.  Now I once again know everything I need to know about all of y'all's hapless drivel.




Picked tomatoes this morning...I need a tiny trained monkey to crawl around in the tomato vines and pick them.....bleh.  I hate picking tomatoes cause the vines are nasty and itchy and crud.

I'm tarred.

Had a cup of coffee.  My previous post must've not been as funny as I thought it was this morning... lol  I was amused at my own wittyness... lol

Made pancakes.  Fluffiest ones I've ever made.  They had the same measurement of buttermilk to flour.  I'll have to remember that as I use whole wheat flour for nearly everything except specialty stuff.  And FINALLY, I got the opportunity to buy and try pure maple syrup: GRADE B which for honey and maple syrup is the highest quality because it's the least processed= more nutrition.  It was so stinking rich I could hardly use much, and it's thin so it's going to go far.  Thank you Jesus... lol

Ladies/girls Tea today where Sis.Gleason is going to be teaching on Etiquette.  Not the "no elbows on the table" type but ... well, I don't know how to word it which means I probably don't have it!  LOL 

World Missions Conference is in a few weeks here and Bro.Robinette from Austria is preaching.  The theme is "GO BEYOND" & we are going with European style, which to my knowledge we've never done before.

You're so loyal to GP, Sethers! 


Have you had much luck selling all that stuff?  I would think that if you don't now, you may later as it's been said that food prices are rising due to the drought/heat.

[MsJennJenn]

Bought 3-set sheet pans, a package of 5 serving ware, a package of like 8 wooden serving ware, a small metal strainer, a cutlery organizer for the drawer, a set of 8 kitchen washcloths and a serves 8 glassware set (8 tall/8short) for my apartment!

Oh and this crazy yellow glass bowl for decoration on the clearance rack!

And I only spent $50 for all!! Woohoo!

My room is gonna be a mess by December.

Cooking class date with JV for my birthday tonight. Then we're going shopping for vinyl at this huge Half Price Books in Dallas!

I've just sold a few random things.  Most of it so far we've canned.  I have somebody wanting green beans, I've got to get picking again.

Man, how do I get in on that?  I could use almost everything on that list. 

Vinyl... records? 

[MsJennJenn]

I got all that stuff at Ross & Marshall's.

Yes records.

[Chseeads]

Now what are Ross and Marshall going to do now that you took their stuff?

[The Purple Fuzzy]

Now what are Ross and Marshall going to do now that you took their stuff?

Without.

I had a pretty good day today. Got some serious Livi love, she was so sweet to me today...lately she hasn't been, so I cherished every moment that she was being nice.

Then we had a good youth service. But sometime today the crook of my left elbow and inside of my upper arm developed a raised rash and itches. It's hot to the touch and feels like a big knot under the skin. Ugh. It's all red and burns even as I type. If I scratch it anymore I'm afraid it will bleed. So I got home, took some benedryl and rubbed some hydrocortisone cream on it. Hopefully that will help. I'm not sure what it is, and I cannot afford another sickness.

Another thing, I put a roast in the crock pot to take to the potluck tomorrow, and I had it on low all day and instructed my parents to please turn it off at around 3. That way it would be cooled by the time I came in tonight and I'd fix it up with the veggies ready for tomorrow...well I came in and it was on HIGH! Still bubbling and been on since 6am! I asked dad if he was the one that turned it off, and he said yes, then mom said she did...so the story is, mom turned the switch all the way to the left which is OFF, at about 3...dad came behind her, and turned it all the way to the right, which he thought was off, and it was really HIGH. Ugh. So I hope it's not TOO done and ruins the meal I was taking. It cooked for 17 hours.

I feel sick. I am known for my awesome meals and now they might have messed this one up. Lord.


Anyway. That was my day.

Oh, and Mesi was in my town today and I missed seeing her. I had obligations at church and couldn't get away when she was here. But that's ok. Next time maybe.

[The Purple Fuzzy]

Well, we've had folks in and out this weekend.  My hubby's brother and wife came Friday evening then today my FIL and his wife came.  Hope that's all for now

[MsJennJenn]

Bought 4 records.

Mahalia Jackson
Aretha Franklin
Bach
La Bohemme (opera)

[Chseeads]

I'm tarred and grumpy.

[SippinTea]

Roscoe, you just went way up on my respect list. Just sayin'....

Sethers - no idea. But apparently our knees hate us. Or something.

Heather - I am (impatiently) waiting for pics.

Had a FABULOUS time at family conference. Services were terrific, and the fellowship was wonderful, and... my tired brain is running out of adjectives.

[Lynx]

MelodyB - things happen, it's not your fault and you won't starve.  Don't waste getting upset, and the resultant high blood pressure, on something that is not worth high blood pressure. 


In the meantime, I have been a lazy slob all day today.  Got up a whole 4 minutes before noon and proceeded to read books and generally goof off the whole day.  We had to work the last two Saturdays, so I'm enjoying this one. 

[MelodyB]

I'm not upset about it. I was frustrated at first, only cause it proves my point. Lately Ive felt like I cant go anywhere, even for a few hours cause when I do, I come home and the place is a wreck, and stuff is just generally wrong. Makes me feel trapped sometimes. I think it will be ok. I didn't intend for it to cook that long, but hopefully it will do alright.

[Roscoe]

Morning all.  Back at work. Wrestling with a decision. Slowly going nuts because of it...... Life is good.

[Lynx]

Oooh, going nuts... what kind, pecans?  I like pecans.  Go pecans if you have a choice. 

[MelodyB]

Well. Upon further investigation when I was preparing to got into the shower, my rash has spread. Now my right arm is covered in it, and it's under both armpits and creeping down my sides.

I'll be glad when this thread is closed...it's making me itch!



Seriously though, I think I need to go to the ER. It's spreading rapidly.

[Lynx]

Sorry to hear that. 

I remember one time when I was a kid I had an allergic reaction to an off-brand of bubble bath.  Welts the size of saucers.  I would have actually been fascinated if they hadn't itched so much.

Mel-sounds almost like your breaking out in hives or something
