Guess What?? by Norma
Well, I got the grandmother clock working. But for some reason it only chimes 4 times at 5 o'clock. But we're happy with it anyway. I told DH nothing else works perfectly in this house, so it fits in really well. BTW, he's thinking about the flight to Mexico. So, things are progressing slowly on...

Shelagh, a crazy day by Noreen's Knit*che
1, 2, 3, AWWWWWW! I HATE days like that! Glad you could 'vent' here. No offense to anyone HERE, but I've found that anybody who works in the 'service' professions who are under 25 need some serious orientation. Whatever happened to: "the customer is always right?" Hugs, Noreen

The joys of rural life by NoraBalcer
Shelagh, Hope the plumber's bill didn't send you into shock. I'm a country girl and love it, but DH is a city boy and won't ever consider moving where there isn't public water and sewer. Hugs, Nora

A "Q" for knitters who like wooden needles by Noreen's Knit*che
I've just stumbled across an interchangeable system from Plymouth Yarns, called the "Bamboo Sister", and wondered if any of our elite have it, and what they think of it. It's pricey, but wondering if the cost is worth it. Do they STAY screwed together? Thanks in advance, Noreen Noreen's...
