Mostly, I just knit or needlepoint ornaments and wall hangings to decorate with. I made a wreath one time from pine cones, but now only redo the fake green one I have when it needs it.
This year, I'm knitting small figures and decorations like bells and teddy bears to go on gifts and I will knit flat figures to decorate some plain Christmas stockings. Oh - I've made Christmas stockings in t... |
 | peavey responded to a discussion called Which is your favorite holiday? in holidays. 14 hours ago
Christmas! There is nothing about Christmas that I don't like, even to the crowds at the mall and too many gifts. I try to be ready early so I can have time to sit and stare at the Christmas tree and read the old story from Luke a few times. I like to read other Christmas stories, make (and eat!) goodies we don't get any other time of the year. I love Christmas music, too, and even listen to it... |

If they start taking ads, they have to be careful about the content - and that would add a lot of work to edit everything. For instance, Google ads will sometimes pull up very inappropriate material for the content, so either you have to go to Google and have those ads stopped or you have to edit the content. Also, as an open source of sorts, content-wise, the first thing that would happen if t... |
 | peavey responded to a discussion called AARP gets paid off for their support with our money in politics. 13 hours ago
I have never liked AARP. First, none of their so called discounts are as good as I can get sleuthing on my own, and second, because of shenanigans like this. They're like a lot of liberals once they taste power - they could care less about what their members actually want and need and promises mean nothing to them. |

The only thing traditional in our family is the food. People's work schedules change over time, some are married and go to other places for Thanksgiving now. This year will be low key, but we'll still be having turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, gravy, asparagus, green and black olives and celery stuffed with cream cheese, iced tea and pumpkin pie for dessert. That's the basic Thanksgiving dinn... |
 | peavey responded to a discussion called Do you know about YAHOO CHAT RECORDING software??? Beware of it!! in internet. 13 hours ago
I don't think the software is the problem, but your "friend" definitely is! Chat rooms and IMs have had the capability of recording conversations for years. ICQ, an IM program that came out at least 10 years ago, has always been able to record conversations. Beware of the friend you keep... and don't let them use your laptop unless there's a real need. |
