Well... us Norwegians don't do so well in the sun, either. Apparently there weren't many tanning beaches up there in them Fjords. It's taken years of burns to figure out how to ease into the base tan veerrrrrry slowly. But it *can* happen.
Less chances for skin cancer if you avoid the sun though, so don't be too eager to tan. My skin is weird. If I don't get some sun, esp on my legs, I get these bumps all over.
Only the sun gets rid of them. No amount of cream or ointment does a thing. Strange that.
Anyway, I'm off to read for a bit and then hit the hay.
Good night you two. See ya tomorrow!
Yup, I've got what my grandmother the Englishwoman calls "English skin". I have burnt through sunblock, burnt when I thought I was only in the sun for an hour... it's not fun. Plus sunburn is one of the triggers for my eye affliction, so I try to stay out of the stuff these days.
Dang, Corin, I'll bet that was a restless night. Sorry to hear about Nana. Prayers for the hip surgery and her speedy recovery.
Hmmm. 'no personal bows' another rulz? That blows. Well, walking the arrows up to the target is acceptable. Be looking forward to seeing thegirl and theboy fling some wood at ShootMoot.
Now that looks like another useful accesory. Nice catch on finding them.
Wow, the countdown is proceeding. You're down to just the fingers on one hand and only a couple three on the other. RE: the adventure, it'll be a great journey of discovery.
And Good Night All.
Wasn't me this time!
I've even found an adaptor that lets you use 1930-1960 wire-hook stuff (bayonet sheaths were the last to change) on MOLLE. Never know when that might be needed.
Mornin'
S'posed to clear up here. I'll believe it when I see it.
Hospital just called. Nana was supposed to be there at 8:30. They said "can she come now?" Apparently the doctor had a cancellation. Reckon that means we're movin' ahead.
Her face looks awful from the fall the other night. Told her to tell the doctor to get a good look at it, 'cause I'd do that to him if'n he didn't get it right this time.
Gotta go see if'n I can help 'em get outta here...
Good morning! *smooch*
Ooh, did the Pendemonium order get there already? No pens...but that's my purple ink and a book! Wow...came fast.
Good morning!
Final car prep day: the van is getting the tires swapped.
Need to start making a list of supplies for the trip. I'll forget stuff anyway, but...
What's all this smooching going on in the Hole?
;-)
Good morning everyone! Best wishes to Nana, Corin...I guess you must already be there.
Woohooo! Final Car Prep Day!!
Mrs. is there with her. I hadda come to Fangorn. She should be all checked in now.
Wife was saying last night she hadn't thought about being there alone with her today. She's always felt it a ministry to be there to wait with the family. And she's often been there with friends just to sit with them.
Four siblings, none of 'em here today. And one sister lives in Richmond. Yeah, she's got three little kids, but her husband works from home. She could be there if she wanted to.
The Pastors will stop by, but they can't stay.
