I Will Offer Them My Head!

?, Sugar and Cube at our fence last year.

I think both dad and I have colds. Down here, it's hard to tell if it's a cold or an allergy, but I think these are colds. Maybe that's why my shoulder hurts so much--maybe my cold has settled there.

We found some Japanese patches Megumi had left back when she had Iris. They're still good! We opened them and Dad put one on my shoulder yesterday and findally got some relief from the pain. THANK YOU Megumi!

Chuck is coming here today to help Dad hang most of the doors. We need to get them out of the guest room so that Millie and her Mom have a place to sleep! Then I have to clean the guest room!

Today will be busy. I will make county ribs for freezing and also some teriyaki chicken. Those will be stored in the freezer for use when Millie gets here. Plan to fix a pot roast for them for when they arrive on Monday. Told Jenn I'd fix paella for Wednesday when we all get together.

Want to make a crystal watch today and get that to my friend tomorrow. Then cleaning up/organizing my room. I made an appt. with Charles & Sue's School of Beauty to offer my head for a haircut and perm. These are students with supervision and, hopefully it will cost a lot less than the $70+ they ask for in a regular beauty shop. I hate paying that kind of money for someone to work on my hair!

It's Halloween. We generally don't get trick or treaters but Benjamin is coming in his Venom costume. I'll have something special for him. Wish I'd put some more thought into that for the girls--the disadvantage of them being so far away. Wondering if their costumes fit, if they like them, if they're able to wear them, how do they look in them? Sure wish they could live closer to us. Can't wait to see them!

Gotta run!

Peace!

Mom,
Sorry to learn you have a cold.

I hope that dose not slow down your door project.
The costumes fit, though the trousers are a bit long, but it is ok we improvised and pushed the elastic ankles up to their knees and oh la, they are perfect!

I have instructed Megumi to get some pictures and send them to you tonight. My camera batteries are dead or it would have been done already (I tried though).

I miss that Mom's" cooking.

The girls are happy with their costumes, that is already very special for them.

Love
Jordan

Thanks, Jordan! Can't wait to see the pics.

The costumes seemed long to me but I did follow the pattern. They should be able to play in them for quite some time!

Cold is getting better. Dad is muddling through.

Love, Mom
