I feel a Christmas TOPPs coming on

Need coffee, Need coffee, Need coffee, Need coffee

Weally sowwy Bean

Bean, I started to think yesterday that I had a sinus infection too, had a headache for the last two days that I couldn't throw. Went to bed very early last night, had a yucky sleep (if you can call it that), but felt a little better this morning. Might have been a migrainey thingy, but I didn't really have time!

Get well soon Bean and vdV. Could your wife come and do my Chrissy next year?

kettle on, anyone for a cuppa?

Gail, she enjoys shopping so she probably would.

I head off to add up the TOPP's and you TOPPed without me. Here it is:
24-Suzy
18-Tami
16-Julie
15-June
14-eaa
10-Lizzy, CynB

5-Brenda
4-Mariana, Nola, Vici, Heidi, Broni
3-Mamacita, Bean
2-Becky, Judy, vdV
1-Rena

Steve, I would be glad to make you a pot of coffee but by the time I got it to you, it would be cold. Hope you are feeling better soon.

Cup of tea please Steve, much appreciated.

Here it is Gail, enjoy. I'm enjoying my coffee!

Catch ya all later, gotta do some work!
Sorry to swear at you like that.

I got all mushy there.

Just ate, now to feed the dogs.
I HAVE to get dog food and chicken feed tomorrow. For some strange reason, they like to eat.

Didn't shoot any 'possums tonight. I may have either scared them away, or got most of them already.

Steve...I hope you don't have what I have

Bean, hope you are feeling better soon. Gail, glad that headache went away. Little beastie boy has a small cold. Just when he is off of school for two weeks.

I have been finding that all sorts of people weren't on my friends list....hard to believe when you look at the length of it...and it is a job chasing them up...there are also a couple of names on it that I haven't been able to delete...

You can't 'cause you don't want to, or you can't 'cause the functions not working right?

Bean and Steve......

Any word of Rayray yet?????

Heidi - I got a tad teary as well - you said what I would like to have said but couldn't find the words when I sent off my Christmas messages.
I love this site!!
Get well Bean and Steve.

No Heidi, keep on checking my email accounts but nothing yet. It still does worry me, but sure Brenda would have heard from his friends.

Hi Broni! Did you say this was your last krow day for 2 weeks? Excellent!
Yayy! I have finally finished my C shopping - all I have to do is buy the last of the groceries tomorrow and all is done!

I think I know what reason Bean. Same reason I can't remove one of the names on my list, and wont.

Heidi, a burst appendix would mean a big operation and as Ray lives by himself he would probably have to go to some sort of care facility to recover enough to look after himself.
Bean, Steve, Tami's son and anyone else feeling under the weather, Hope you have all made a full recovery by Christmas.
Off to the shops!

Just wish his friend would let us know that.

Gail.... I'm leaving that name on my friend's list, too. I feel that friendship is permanent.

Amen to that sister.

Know how you feel Heidi.
June, good point I forgot I was not allowed to go home alone either, thanks to my friends I could.

Heidi and Gail - I agree.
Looked at that name today, should I, shouldn't I - than I decided the same as you two. It's a poignant reminder.

Was hard to skip over when delivering Chrissy greetings though.

OK, wrapping to do.
Later, friends.

Would just like to put it in writing that you all mean mega heaps to me and the affection and love I feel for you all is hard to explain to anyone who hasn't experienced the wonder of SA. A lot of you have learnt a lot more about me in the last year than you probably wanted to [a lot more than some of my 'real' friends ...what a joke]...

It is a poignant reminder when you reach those names that the fragility of life is the only true given ...it is what has prompted this post...just want you all to know.

To join in the chorus of true confessions - I don't tell my 'friends' how proud I am of my girls. When Ebob was elected school captain the viciousness of other parents, even 'friends', was heart breaking. I wasn't allowed to enjoy her success because apparently it wasn't 'real'. So I don't talk about the things they do well, except to the wonderful bunch in here. I love hearing about all of you and your children's successes and I apologise if sometimes I smile and cheer to myself and forget to post in here how happy I was to read your comments.

You guys rock!

It's getting to be about bedtime, so I shall retire. and a big

Good night Heidi. Sleep well!

Hello, SA7ers! I'm just popping in with no time to read any comments. Despite my best intentions, there is no way I will be able to visit individual pages and send a more personal message. It's past 12:30 am here, and it's my first visit in over 24 hours. I don't even have time to read today's comments and may not have a chance to pop back in for several days.

I posted this message last night before leaving the pages, but decided to repeat it.

I'm not sure how much time I'll have to visit these pages in the next few days (if at all). Before I go for the night, I want to take a moment to wish everyone who celebrates these holidays a wonderfully Merry Christmas and a healthy and Happy New Year. For all who visit Sudokuland, whether you celebrate the holidays or not, I would like to wish you days full of peace, love and happiness. Treasure each day as the year comes to an end.

Don't sweat the little stuff Julie.
We know you are thinking of us.

Bean and Steve, I hope you both make miraculous recoveries in the next 24 hours. Feel better soon!

Feel better soon to Tami's son, also.

Oops, sorry, good night, Heidi!

I echo the thoughts of most of us. I can share important things with my real friends here much more easily than with other friends - and get a sincere response, too! Thank you, Everyone!
