COMMON GROUND COFFEE HOUSE #64

Good morning, everyone!

Today is going smoother than yesterday

I'm watching my University play in a National Championship game and this one isn't OU.

Mary Hardin-Baylor is playing for the national championship in their Division. This is only the seventh season that they have had a football team. When I was there it was a women only college. Texas Baptists and the city of Belton wanted a co-ed school and then of course, it was a sign of the times. When I attended, men could take classes, but could not receive a degree.

So far it has been a good game, but we are behind 21-13.

Have a great weekend!

 

Brand new picture of our Morgann (with Santa). Can't believe we can't be there, but e-mail sure is nice

Roger,

What a lovely picture. Morgann is so pretty.

God Bless

Sheila

 

Thanks Brother Barnabas.

I am familiar with that photo site, but not with the programs I have on this new computer,,Adobe Photo Shop...I may be better in a year's time.

I sent Sheila a card with the same scene on it. Maybe she can show it here when she gets it.

Cheers,

Jim

 

Roger, regarding Morgann's picture, I will heartily agree with Sheila.


AAAAAWWWWWWWW!

 

Oh what a beautiful little girl Roger! My how she's grown too. I know how hard it is not to see the little ones this time of year.

Diane

 

Oh, she is adorable, Roger!

 

We had some really good Buffalo wings tonight. Nick had his with honey. Jim grilled them outside and then we finished them inside.

Our windchill tomorrow night is to be 3° degrees! We just might have some freezing rain tonight. We have Calcium Chloride for our steep driveway but I'd guess that most people around here don't!

Our Sunday School kids were wild last week. I had a really hard time getting through the Bible Story because of them all wanting to tell me something about Christmas. Hope I can control them better in the morning! I have some Nativity Story Books to share.

Jim has to buy a $25. gift for his office party and we have no idea what to get. There's a few women and the men are all ages. It's one of those silly gift exchanges where you can take someone elses gift when it's your turn. Suggestions? This is a Christian owned company and most of the employees are Christians.

Gift Certificate to Cracker Barrel?

 

Jim was thinking Gift Certificate. I told him to ask around the office on Monday to see what the usual type gifts are. He'd want CD's but no one would chose the type music he'd like around here! LOL

 

Diane,

What about a book certificate from a Christian Book Store? Or one of Charles Stanley's books? I am enjoying his "When the Enemy Strikes".

Jim,

Sorry, but the card hasn't arrived yet.

God Bless

Sheila

 

What about some jewelry for Big Daddy's Beadery? I hear he fashions walking stick as well.

 

Now a walking stick WOULD come in handy! LOL. The guys had a mouse in their hotel room at training. Jim took him outside and let him go. If it had been a RAT tho! Wham!

 

We are remodeling our office. We've taken
several old ceiling tiles down to be
replaced. A co-worker went into her office,
sat down and reached for phone. There sat
at pigeon. She screamed and fell out of her
chair. Of course this set the bird off as
well.

Everyone was in a state of panic. The painters
were blocking the hall, so I couldn't get to
the scene. Our plant mgr was in the office.
He went in, shut the door and came out with
the bird in hand. What would you expect from
a good ole boy from Alabama.

 

Could anyone please tell me how many ounces there are in a stick of butter

Blessings

Sheila

 

4 ounces usually, Sheila. 1/4 of a pound.

 

Thank you Diane and those who pm'd me with conversion chart details. Much appreciated.

Blessings

Sheila
