Well I found ya'll. I thought I was just having trouble w/the satellite in Brady but when I got here in Midland yesterday it still didn't work. SO....I sent a PM to Honchey & ta-da.
I have some good news. The house had actually been on the market for one week. Wait, not even 1 week as that would be tomarrow. Any-way, we got a verbal offer today. :) I think we are gonna take it! We will probably have to deal w/all of this by e-mail as we are gonna head back to Brady tomarrow.

Bev, one week, amazing! It must be a nice place.
SBG, you printed from the CD, then cut apart the templates, then scanned each individual template? Then set to print at 200%? I like your "How now" remark. lol
okSG, I've always preferred the brown cows at the fair. Jersey or Guersey?
Honchey, looks like Kaffe Fasset fabric. Love those prints.

Well the circular geese look just fine...we wouldn't have known any differently...

Wow Bev. That's great...

Guernseys, givio, except for the half dozen Jerseys our DDiL brought with her when she joined our family...have about 120 total, milking usually around 100...rest would be dry cows waiting the arrival of their next calves. This morning 2 calves...each with a heifer except not sure which one belongs to which cow...Will likely do DNA testing to determine parentage...we have the sire and dam info on all our animals plus who they are bred to...hot and sticky today...tomorrow's to be worse then cool off. Kids are having a great time together...

Bev, congrats on the sale of the house! No turning back now....

Gladie, what a lovely, lively place it sounds like you live in. All those cows, calves to keep straight, and now the grandchildren too. You must have boundless energy!

Yup, that's just how I did it. A bit of a pain, but it got the job done.I like the blocks at 12" too.

We signed the contract today. :) We did it electronically as we are back in Brady. Kinda neat!

So happy for ya, Bev! That was so quick. Short and sweet.

QNS I have two license plates for you but if you can hang on two more weeks, I will be at a show and I'm sure I'll find more. Can't wait for that show!

Great news Bev on your house. Bet your glad you don't have to go back and forth so much!

I'm still amazed at what happened to my son's expected back surgery today... We were at the hospital at 6:30 this morning and he was prepped and ready to go in the OR ..10 minutes later he & the Dr are walking down the corridor and the Dr wants to talk to me in a private room..He tells me that the surgery is not necessary at this time because my son's body is healing itself and it is absorbing the herniated disc and for the time being he'll be getting epidurals? shots? and rest for the next 2-3 weeks..This was discovered in the MRI that was taken a couple of days ago... The Dr. said that this sometimes happens and that DS is one in a hundred that will experience...I think the GUY upstairs had something to do with it..I've been talking to Him alot lately.. Just had to share this with all of you...
