When my emails come thru to the group and I open them I don¡Çt see any

weird character

either. As far as that stupid spacing problem, that¡Çs been going on for

months. I¡Çve never

figured that damn thing out either. I HATE computers!!

RE: Re: cost of craft shows ??

I'm not receiving anything weird when you send me messages, . It's

just

that your e-mail spacing is off. It looks like your e-mails are double

spaced.

Well, I guess that wasn't the problem because that's what

it was already set at. I think I had already looked at that but

I double checked just in case. Question though, what did you

mean by " make sure BOTH are set to " Western European ISO " ?

Maybe I'm missing something here.

~ I found it!!!

Dear ,

>>text/plain; charset=ISO-2022-JP<<

1) In Outlook, go to Tools ... Options.

2) Click on the Mail Format tab and choose " International Options. "

3) Make sure that both are set to " Western European ISO. "

You probably have Japanese code installed and it accidentally got

changed

somehow. I hope this works!

Hi nne

Yup, my hair is different. I want to get s new " do " soon but can't

decide just how I want it. I don't want anything that I have to " fuss "

with all of the time but still want it long enough to be able to pull

back if I want to.

Have fun moving into your house this weekend. It sounds like you're

going to have GREAT weather to do that. I hope it's not too muddy around

the house from all this rain. The day we moved into our house from my

other house it rained (that was in the month of October also) and I

tried laying newspapers all over the house to keep the guys from

tracking mud all over the place. It worked " somewhat " but it was still

kind of messy.

Congratulations, !!!

,

It's *so* good to hear from you, and ... congratulations on your

beautiful

granddaughter!!! I'm sorry that I'm late in responding. She's a cutie!

You

must be *so* happy ~ I can't even imagine. I noticed in the photo that

your

hair has gotten a lot longer, hasn't it? It looks nice. Anyway, enjoy

her,

and best wishes to the new parents. It will be fun for Jeff and me to

have

kids someday! Share more pictures when you can ... and tell us all about

how

she's doing!

own leisure! Kim C

Yup, I thought of that one, too but only had a tad left and didn't want

to order more at this time.

RE: baby showers

Chamomile also might be good to add to the SFIC soap base, maybe?

What do you think? For a friend's baby shower last year, I did a laundry

" kit " ... also included a set of three guest-size soaps for her to use

on

her baby [or to use herself in the shower, LOL!]. They turned out way

cute ... I did one unscented, one with a *light* scent of chamomile, and

one with a *light* scent of lavender.

You're grandfather sounds way cool. I'm glad he's going to get back into

his candles. I love to see older people find a hobby to keep their minds

from going stale, especially after losing their life partner. Maybe you

could start adding some of his candles to your gift baskets that you

make.

Gathering ... room

We could set up a table in our garage for the Yankee swap [i assume that

we're doing one this year?] and then another table for the item swap

materials. That would work, maybe? I'm still trying to decide whether I

want

to participate in the product swap ... I'll have a lot going on with

cleaning and stuff and getting our house ready for our gathering. But,

it

does sound like a blast!!!

My grandpa wants to try to sell some of my soaps. [He's sold eight of

them

so far to various people who he knows!] He bought me a TON of soapmaking

supplies the other day ~ I was SO in shock! He was so generous and kind

to

do that. I swear, he has such a heart of gold. Plus, with my grandma not

with us anymore and him feeling pretty lonely a lot of the time and

recently

feeling like he doesn't have a whole lot to do, he enjoys it because it

gives him something to focus on and help out with. We're kind of a

soapmaking team now, it seems! hehe SO nice of him. Also, he's

getting

back into candlemaking! He used to make great pillars and candles of all

kinds, and I'm SO happy that he's getting back into his old craft. I

can't

wait to see what candles he makes! The ones that he made before were SO

cool. My grandpa turned 80 years old in January ... I have always

admired

him because he always LOVES to learn ~ that's how I want to be, too!!!

My mom might be coming to our gathering!!! I am SO psyched! So, you

might

get to meet her! I know that she will have a blast [i hope!]. I don't

know

if she wants to get into soapmaking or not. We made soap together at

Christmastime. I *so* wish that I could do " gal stuff " with her more

often ~

my family lives in Indiana, and I wish that they lived closer. We

hardly

ever get to see them. I miss her so much!

I just made some sage & citrus heart-shaped guest soaps [colored sage

green

and white] and some " silky rice flower and shea butter " guest soaps,

heart-shaped [colored sparkly gold] for some friends tonight. Hooray for

crafting!

Thanks for sharing the baby's room decor. It's very cute. What color are

you painting the walls?

My daughter ordered her stuff online, too. I purchased the matching

lamp and mobile for her shower gifts. Then I bought an unfinished wood

sofa table at AC and used the pale green and pale blue paints left

over from the walls and painted the table in the two colors. We had

painted the room 1/3 up the wall with the pale green and the top 2/3's

with the pale blue. Then we put up a white chair rail. She had bought

the matching wallpaper border with the baby's bedding and so I purchased

a kit where you can trace a picture's outline onto things and traced the

animals across the table. Then I hand painted them in with craft paints

that matched the border's animals and painted the grass across the table

and it's an exact replica of the wallpaper border. I put a clear laquer

finish over the entire thing to keep it from getting scratched. It looks

like it was purchased from the company that made all the bedding &

stuff. The matching lamp looks so cute sitting on the table, too. I'm no

professional painter but it came out great if I do say so myself!!

Just thought I'd tell you that in case you're open to different ideas

for decorating.

RE: Re: GUESS WHAT?????

Dear Gabby,

>>You have to be getting excited, the time is rolling near for

delivery!!!

How are you doing???<<

I'm doing well! Just in awe that we only have 60 more days before our

son's

due date! LOL! There's so much to be done. My next doctor's appointment

is

January 27th, and my mom will be in town then - so she'll get to go with

us!

I'm so excited to spend the week with her (no work!!!) and do fun

baby/house/girly stuff together. We have our crib ordered, and our crib

bedding set is also on the way. Here's what we picked:

http://www.dreamtimebaby.com/ohboy.html. It's a " transportation " theme

that

will hopefully translate to when he gets older, too. I'm excited to put

everything together and see how it looks. We have childbirth classes

starting in February, and I plan to check into a breastfeeding class. We

also need to take a hospital tour sometime soon. I can feel him moving

around like CRAZY!!!!! I love it, and I know that I'm going to miss that

movement later on, when I'm not pregnant anymore. We think that we

have a

name picked out for our little guy, but we're not telling anyone until

he's

born. It's actually the first name that we wrote down!

As far as soapmaking (sorry, didn't mean to talk so much about baby

stuff!),

I want to make a few things for my mom when she arrives. My dad LOVES

anything vanilla-mint, so I'm going to make him some lotion and a soap

(Mom

can take it home to him). I'm going to make my mom some lotion and a

soap,

too - maybe blackberry-sage (that's one of her favorite scents).

Question for you guys - when you have company over (to stay with you),

do

you make up a little gift basket to sit in the guest bedroom or guest

bathroom? Like, goodies for them to use? Just wondering - because I

thought

it would be a nice gesture to do that for when my mom gets here. Didn't

know

if other people did things like that, too ...

Oh that baby stuff is darling. I love froggies! Thanks for sharing. And yes I do

put out a little basket of soaps, lotions and towels for guests. If they like it

I let them take it home:) And make/get new ones for any future guests. Have a

good and warm weekend.
