Welcome to ChitChat!

In the spirit of the holiday season, could you at least refrain from calling people psychotic and bigoted until at least December 26th? I thought Troy's guidelines last year put a stop to this crap, but I guess not. Yes VCESS and Pam, I'm talking about you two, and all the others in your little group who support you. And you can save your vitriol that you've been wanting to hurl at me for the last 12 months, I'm dealing with issues much bigger than any of you and I couldn't give a flying fig what you think about me. Grow up and stop calling other chat room member(s) that you don't even know these ridiculously childish names just because she/they have a different political view from yours. You're supposed to be grown-ass women, try acting like it for a change.

Good Saturday morning everyone. I decided to keep a small project bag to work from to do Christmas ornaments and fridge magnets when the full coverage pieces need to take a break. It doesn't matter how long it takes to finish those. I am working on a Crocette a Gogo Christmas ornament today and am loving the way it is shaping up. Other than doing a lot of stitching due to the weather that's been the week so far. Enjoy your weekend. Find things for which to be grateful, even if they seem small.

Looking for a different stitch for backgrounds…most of them felt like they distracted from the pattern….this is a basket weave….it was a bit of a challenge, mistakes were made…but easy enough to fix…

Today is Saturday ………………………………….……….. Good Morning, MJ 💕

I have a new fascination with juicing! I juice apples by the half bushel and carrots by 5-pound bags. I've tried sweet potatoes, celery, broccoli (yuck!), pineapples, pears, blueberries, strawberries, peaches... lots of produce! That's 55 oz of juice from 5 pounds of carrots. It's so much easier for my body to digest nutrients from juice. Not to worry about fiber in my diet. I eat the pulp for dessert. No protein? No way! I drink two protein shakes a day with 30 g of protein each, only 1g of sugar. What a difference it's making in my sleep and energy during the day!

Good Friday morning everyone. We're back to -5 wind chills, but so far no snow. I'm working on the Mill Hill kit "Advent Trilogy" and making small ornaments for our tree while we tough out this weather. It calls for homemade pizza tonight for comfort food. Have a fine Friday and stay safe if you're in a bad weather area.

Good Morning

Luke 1: 67 - 80 New American Standard Bible

67 And his father Zechariah was filled with
the Holy Spirit and prophesied, saying:


68 " Blessed be the Lord God of Israel,
For He has visited us and accomplished
redemption for His people,


69 And has raised up a horn of salvation
for us in the house of His servant
David


70 "Just as He spoke by the mouth of
His holy prophets from ancient times


71 Salvation ' from our enemies, And from the
hand of all who hate us:


72 To show mercy to our fathers,
'And to remember His holy covenant,


73 "The oath which He swore to our
father Abraham,


74 To grant us that we, being rescued
from the hand of our enemies,
Would serve Him without fear,


75 'In holiness and righteousness
before Him all our days.


76 "And you, child, also will be called
the prophet of the Most High;
For you will go on before the
Lord to prepare His ways;


77 To give his people the knowledge of salvation
By the forgiveness of their sins,


78 Because of the tender mercy of our God,
With which the Sunrise from on high will
visit us,

79 "To shine on those who sit in darkness
and the shadow of death, To guide our
feet into way of peace."


80 " Now the child grew and was becoming
strong in spirit, and he lived in the deserts
until the day of his public appearance to Israel.


Have A Blessed Day!

Today is Friday ……………………………….………………. Good Morning, MJ 💕
