There isn't a day that goes by that I don't think about her or laugh at something she said or did. Jerri was such a large part of my life. She was the sister I never had, the best friend and traveling buddy and she gave great advice, too. Jerri was the life of the party and I'm so blessed to have known her.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Above is a little movie I made to share with our group a little after Jerri passed away. It's a snippet of her antics and love of living. I'm sharing it with you in the hopes that it will lift your spirits, make you laugh or just spread a little joy.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><strong>Enjoy!</strong></div>Rhondahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06471317644488778051noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816623246507351012.post-27716995389359711262010-11-18T09:37:00.000-06:002010-11-18T09:37:33.446-06:00Coasters for the HolidaysCheck out this <span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;"><strong><a href="http://allsorts.typepad.com/allsorts/2006/11/crisscross_coas.html">link</a></strong></span> for a quick and wonderful gift for the holidays.Rhondahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06471317644488778051noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4816623246507351012.post-82989228768491973962010-09-14T09:35:00.000-05:002010-09-14T09:35:44.803-05:00Thread Trouble<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCfEsvXwJGTHJOpdwJM0vDiFZKRmsj5h0DkpJQEA1G-0z9A_SryVFn3UuYomaWQUGBY5GWZz0JPHcis49d1uuIVXTXU6GhmLfcLGSi7fFBrROhOMiuZ3EC2EocOjC8nXhbPfghIAdRmms/s1600/DSC00512-1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="133" qx="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCfEsvXwJGTHJOpdwJM0vDiFZKRmsj5h0DkpJQEA1G-0z9A_SryVFn3UuYomaWQUGBY5GWZz0JPHcis49d1uuIVXTXU6GhmLfcLGSi7fFBrROhOMiuZ3EC2EocOjC8nXhbPfghIAdRmms/s200/DSC00512-1.JPG" width="200" /></a></div><a href="http://humblequilter.blogspot.com/">Kathy</a> found this great article about thread problems on <a href="http://stitchfun.com/news_100914.htm">Stitch Fun</a> so we wanted to share it with everyone.

On the menu was prime rib, boneless pork chops, rib eye, steamed veggies, baked potatoes, salad, mushroom soup, mushrooms, and wine or mixed drinks........yummy.<br /><br />We decided to eat out and not exchange gifts but just enjoy one another's company. The restaurant was very accommodating, the service excellent, the foods mouth-watering.
