We have received an invitation in past years to set up a table at the JHMS Career Development Classes Annual Christmas sale. This is the first time we took them up on it.
I guess with more time on our hands, and I enjoy baking bread and Fran enjoys embroidery, we decided to give it a shot.
There were about 7 tables [the table owners pay a fee and get to keep any money you make]
set up in the gym plus tables with tickets for prizes of prints and 50/50 draws, also there was a coffee style shop set up in the music room next to the gym.
I could have taken more bread, and the cookies all sold though at a slower rate.
Fran’s embroidery was snapped up and the books I was forced to relinquish sold better than I thought they would.
The money raised always goes to good causes; hope it was a success for the organizers.
Around 8.45 last evening the heat beats of Nain residence upped a few notches, well mine did. The power went out at that time until around 8.56 or so.
Only a short outage for sure, but given the circumstances any little blip plays on ones mental well being.
I’m sure a hydro spokesperson well inform the public just what the problem was last night, again given the circumstances. Just the facts, no hoopla rhetoric thank you very much.

i just popped in to check on you and saw a great big white window just below 'Nain Bay' and thought it(blank page) was a picture of your weather from the livingroom!

but with the price of lichens and moss,i don't know how much of WHAT he will have on board.reindeer labor issues,work to rule,petty jealousies among the reindeer...lord help us all!
