Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to find mama the crochet thread she likes at whole sale prices.
Here is a link to Herrschners showing the thread she wants:

We ordered it direct from Robinson-Anton 2 years ago and paid about $12.00 a cone. We get 24 cones: 12 white, 12 natural. We've been on the phone to Robinson-Anton and they've sold that part of the company. We're waiting on a call back but in the meantime, I've been scouring the net with no luck.

If you don't have time, I understand.

Will keep my eyes open!!!! If I get some time today, I'll see what I can come up with!

GOOD LUCK!! and by the way..how is Mama?? (I can see she's still crocheting....what's she making now a days?)


And..what are YOU up to nowadays??

I'm here..just here.

She's doing fine. I'm doing fine. Just seem to be busy all the time. Just spent three days in Tally taking a certification class, so I spent the night with Chase.

While I'm now working 7:00 am to 3:30 pm your time, my schedule continues crazy. I work every 3rd weekend but I volunteered to work 11-7 tonight and then I'm going in at 3:00 am Monday and working til 3:30 pm. That'll give me 20 hrs of overtime for this schedule.

Tues, after work I have an appointment with a nurse practitioner. I'm going to talk to her about HRT (hormone replacement therapy). I've always felt that it's better to go with nature but here lately I've been thinking...always dangerous I know. But while discussing it at work, it came to me that we are living a lot longer than we used to even 50 years ago. The body hasn't caught up with the times. So, I may give it a whirl. I'm leaning toward the bioidentical hormones rather than the synthetic ones.

Still eating low carb. Haven't really lost much weight but my clothes are a little looser and over all I feel better, so I'm sticking with it.

That's really about it. I have a nice quiet life.
