Morning All,

Was doing my ironing at 5.30 SA time! I like to do it
before the day warms up.
We are 2 hours ahead of you Shimms.

Have cleaned the fridge and then the grocery
cupboards, been a real busy little bee(not so sure about the little)
this morning!

I remember my Mom always telling me to rub
Vicks on the soles of my daugher's feet
when she was a baby.

Val..

Morning all~~~~
OOOOHHHH! I just remembered something on here a while back, about remedies to stop you coughing at night!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rub Vicks into the soles of your feet, put on an old pair of socks before you go to bed.
Loads said it worked!!, I havent had the need to try it myself(touch wood),
But anythings worth a go?

Oh Tina

Bless, am so luvin your name Katrina, tis so pretty. :))

How kind to help others ... not only do we meet friends through our trees but here too.

So pleased we're friends, wishing you such a good day at work.

xxx Shimms xxx

Joanie ... remember those splinters lol!

No seriously, well done ... and you know what, you're trying and that's what counts.

Had forgotten about Vicks, tis good isn't it. I use a Sudafed plug-in to help me breathe at night, it circulates a menthol aroma which truly helps; also Carvol on my pillow.

Who's Vick?! Sorry, couldn't resist, norti Shimms! roflol

Yes it's great meeting people via the family tree...it's amazing once you start how peope come forward with their memories and even photo's...it's good to put a picture to a name.

I have enjoyed it that much...and keep telling others that they ask me to do theirs for them...once I start and have got quite far I put their tree's on genes reunited and then they take it from there. They also have met new people through it and have found ancestors they have never heard of.

Off to get ready for work now.

Forgot to mention my name....Tina (Short for Katrina).

Just realized ...

Both Keith and Joanie are very quiet ... I know that they're both trying to give up ...., won't say anything about that ... just thinking of them quietly. Think others are too.

Oh Blue Moon,

Am sorry hun, leaves you feeling exhausted doesn't it ((hug)).

Am better than I was, just this silly tiredness. Washed my hall floor yesterday and had to go to bed for a few hours, was exhausted, how silly is that lol?!

There are, aren't there ... have a very special friend who is achey, has such a sore throat ... thank goodness that we can speak here or on msn ... xxx

Katty, am smiling :))

Everytime I search, I seem to discover that I am not one of two, yet one of 5, now one of 12 ... OH's mum was one of 20, my dad one of 12 and so on ...

Exciting, isn't it ... gosh when I met my sister twas as though we'd known each other all our lives, yet we'd just met ... even dressed in almost the same clothes! xxx

Morning Carol hun

How's you sweetie, am better than I was although I do think this year the strain of flu is horrid, am reminded of Russian Flu ... gosh was so so ill with that too. xxx

Jackie sis, am luvin it lol! You'll be seeing me fly by with my umbrella in the air!

Oh bless, tis one of my favourite films, a little better.

How's you, your brother sis? (((hugs))) xxx

Hi Shimms

its eased a bit , but still having coughing fits,(so much rubbish) sometimes they are that bad I can't get my breath and end up going dizzy.

Are you any better ?

Their are so many people unwell at the moment.

No hun, you're with family here, well ... I'm the same anyway lol, don't know about the others. :) xxx

ShimmsRedRoseAndMistletoe Report 20 Jan 2009 06:50

I 'walked' away from mine, so much ... well, tis very complicated. Am contemplating whether to return, order certificates ... see what happens.

Must say, if it wasn't here, I wouldn't have found a sister who didn't know I existed ... have a whole branch on my tree that belongs to me, others to find too.

Hope that makes sense!
