That’s above my paygrade..LOL..But it looks fine to me, fewz.
I can’t get my garage door to open more than a few inches when it is below freezing..Maybe Al could give me a hand.

Well, during and after the video was over, I could not get my screen to clear up.

This truly is wonderful and really got to me big time this Monday morning. Thank you, Meg.

When I see fresh snow, I always marvel at how simple it is for God to cover all the scars on the earth, with a blanket of snow.

And that is what I love to see, granny...but not for long.

I would love to know the HTML for u-tube embedding also!

[jaycee]

I was complaining about my 7 above and you have -16...wow!

Sorry about Nan being laid off. Is there hope she will be called back? The fireplace sounds nice even though it doesn't ease the pain over losing a job...God will help you if you ask in love and faith.

And I am like you.....I am so sick of global warming I could die. Its another way for people in "high places" to make money and get rich...thats what I think! You and Nan will be in my thoughts and prayers.

[MEG33]

Oh, (((Johnn)))..I am so sorry..Sending prayers for another job soon.

The embedding part is easy, but I wanted it to look like the embed was Possum’s TV setting on the chest. You can copy the embed code at YouTube for anything that allows embed.

[MEG33]

(((jaycee)))..How could it not? It sure makes me grateful for those who protect me and our nation.

[MEG33]

I am glad I don’t have to get out there..I am having a bird watching good time..There was a house finch for the first time in awhile, a pair of Bluejays, several cardinals, a chickadee, a titmouse.
I am replacing the frozen birdbath saucer each morning with fresh water..and really throwing out food on the patio in addition to a full tube feeder..( The squirrels are having a feast, too)
Echoes of “NO! Stop that, Get down right now”, will be heard through the house when I have 9 kitties together..LOL

[MEG33]

Thank you, Amy.

[GodBlessUSA]

LOL! 9 kitties at once. Now that is fun!! :)

Isn't it great to see all the birds! It's been very busy here too with the bad weather. The Gold Finches are here by the dozens. I have 2 sock feeders and a regular feeder for thistle and I'm out in a day. I notice they don't sell thistle locally. I must be the only finch feeder in town. ;) I'll happily drive for it today. :)

Thank you for "A Day of Faith, Johnn.

Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will one day walk on water?

Did you know
That your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?

Mary, Did you know
That your baby boy has come to make you new
This child that you've delivered
Will soon deliver you?

Mary, did you know
That your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?

Mary, Did you know
That your baby boy will calm a storm with his hand?

Did you know
That your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when you kiss your little boy
Youve kissed the face of God?

Mary, did you know?
The blind will see
The deaf will hear
And the dead will live again
The lame will leap
The dumb will speak
The praises of the lamb

Mary, did you know
That your baby boy is lord of all creation?

Mary, Did you know
That your baby boy will one day rule the nations?

Did you know
That your baby boy is heavens perfect lamb?
This sleeping child you/re holding
Is the great I am?

Thank you Tasmanianred for giving me this to frame.

[JustAmy]

I can't believe it!
I missed giving MamaBear credit for her wonderful Welcome Graphic again.

Lori, I apologize.
After testing the post last night, I made that addition to the code.
I made it in the Preview screen but failed to make it in my Notepad html.

Everyone, please thank MamaBear for the Welcoming Post.

James Edward Oglethorpe's Birthday

James Oglethorpe (December 22, 1696 – June 30, 1785) was a British general, a philanthropist, and was the founder of the colony of Georgia.

As social reformer in England, he hoped to resettle England's poor, especially those in debtor's prison, in the New World.

Visit Relax. You're in Georgia now.
