Moving is for the birds and such hard work. After all your work at the old house, do you have second thoughts about leaving it? I am sure it looks very nice. Have not tired the c hips as I try not to eat them. I am okay, but will now more after today. I hope.

Nice that your kids want some of the things you no longer need. We are starting to downsize too and neither child needs any more stuff from us. Love the new picture of you. You look mighty trim and slim.

As I read this, at first I thought "no" she isn't getting rid of it, she loves it too much. By the end I was so happy and envious that your kids are taking your precious things. With only 2 kids, one in a condo 1000 miles away and the other a single guy in a one bedroom apartment...we can't even get them to take their own things. They don't want us to get rid of their things...but, they don't have room for them. There are a few things my daughter would like at some point, but all these family antiques...we won't have room for them when we retire to Florida and the kids don't want them. I have no idea what we are going to do. I wish I wasn't such a softy about things that belonged to my grandparents and great-grands.

A few months back you posted about "Fire~Roasted Tomatoes"! Well, dear friend...I L O V E tomatoes...and so I thought, in any form!!!<br />HOWever...those tomatoes nearly set me on fire!!! Oh, BJ...I had to eat sour cream to get my mouth put out!!! Since then, I've found another brand that doesn't include those hot peppers!!!
