AOL told me there were too many characters when I did this in one entry, so here's the last of what you wanted to see.
***********************************************************
#10-Carol wanted to see my house. This picture I actually took today. It's much prettier in the summer when the shrubs and flowers are blooming. It faces the south so the big cedar tree next to my driveway does a good job of shading it in the summer.
#11-Jeanie asked to see the are I live in & where my computer lives. I have my computer in one far corner of my living room (the coldest corner I might add) so I can see the T.V.
the double wedding ring quilt was made in 1939 for my dad by my great grandmother. It was stored carefully for many years & never used so is like brand new. I love it, hanging right there by me. Special family pictures all over the wall to my right.
#12-Mandy wants to see my kitchen (see # 9 in previous entry) and my bedroom.
My bedroom is quite small. And yes I do make my bed immediately, once my feet hit the floor. You can see Gabi's blanket across the end of my bed, where she sleeps at night.
#14-Carrie wants to see in my refrigerator. By the way Carrie, I want to take this opportunity to publicly forgive you for being a Packers fan! LOL
#15-Ally wants to see whatever I'm willing to share. Well Ally, you just about saw it all. Hugs to you !!!
#16-Sylvia wants to see what's here and there on my walls. So I'm going to first take you down the hallway to the two bedrooms and the main bathroom.
Mostly grand kid pictures on this side. The poster however is from my 60th birthday party. Everyone that came, left me a message. I love it & will probably never get rid of it. The little basket on the left is full of silk blue bonnets from a 1987 trip to Texas.
This shelf holds my collection of Boyd's Bear resin figurines. It's surrounded by more grand kid pictures.
This is my grand parents wedding certificate from 1909. Very precious to me. The little picture to it's right is my other grandma when she was about 2 or 3 years old.
The picture above the light switch is my mom's 1939 graduation picture from Nurses training at St Elizabeth Hospital in Yakima, Washington. The picture above it was taken at a high school reunion. This is a group of us that all went to the same grade school.
Back in the living room is a book shelf. On the top is my Shirley Temple doll (reproduction) and the doll my mom had when she was a little girl.
So that's it folks...you've seen almost every corner of my house. If there anyone else out there brave enough to do this?
Cold and slightly sunny here today. Will summer ever get here....I wonder. Linda

Love your house Linda and don't complain about your weather today I live in the Tri-Cities and as of 10 minutes ago we have 10 inches of snow. It had been snowing non stop since about 5:30 this morning.. And I hate snow really bad...BJ
You have a beautiful house but I still say you cheated with your underwear drawer!! lol. -Missy
Thank you for sharing your home with us. I thoroughly enjoyed seeing it. You have a beautiful warm home very inviting.

I almost recognised the position of your computer, Linda (from the webcam during Journals chat). Thank you for sharing your home with us :-))
Wonderful! I feel like I just came to your house for a visit!!! Love it nice and comfy.

Dear Linda
Thank you for sharing your lovely home with all of us.
I meant the area outside your mobile home where you live but you showed that yesterday so I got my 'fix' then....lol!
It was just how I phrased the question so it was silly old me's fault for fluffing it.
Hugs
Jeanie xx
I've decided to be brave ... I'm doing it!
Monica
I love your grandparent's wedding certificate!

Morning Linda,
You HAVE to be kidding...I am considering "imploding" my house after years of neglect while we had our catering, mobile concessions and cafe business.
I have asked the Lord to help me put my house back in order and He is honouring this request.
Thank-you for sharing your home....It makes me feel like I know you better..
YIKES today it is -40 and that figure is the same whether F or Celsius. I usually have walked everyday since selling the cafe but although I would bundle up warm enough the wind has blown so many drifts it would make it hard to find a safe walking space....so I will putz with some housework....enjoy my cup of tea (ALWAYS in a china cup so when I come for a visit you have to dust at least the one you might have)
Church message was challenging on "Forgiveness" ouch my toes hurt so I am consciously dealing with someone in my life.
Hope your day goes well and I think you are feeling some of this ugly weather.
On days like this I am SO thankful for my little home. When we used to serve food at the "Mustard Seed" in Calgary and saw so many that had no place to hang their heads....days like these are difficult as there is no enough places to take people in.
Hubby would love to have the $$$ to build something even over in Red Deer which also has begun to have "homeless"..
Blessings,
Lori J.
I love your trailer home. It looks so cozy. Thank you for sharing those pics of your home with us. My husband & I are going away this weekened or else I would share pics of my home with you as well. If you remind me sometime next week I promise I will return the favor. Thanks again Linda.
Your home is a lovely place to be Linda ,isnt it nice to be retired and not to have to go out and leave it every morning now ,,love Jan xx
