I helped for a while this morning and he said he could take it from there. So here I am at the library trying to play catch up a bit. I wanted you to know that I checked out "The Secret" from the library a couple of days ago and read it in one evening. I really enjoyed it and its message. Will practice what it preaches! Thanks and stay well. I should be back in OK in about a week and a half.

Your life seems to be nice and full and very creative! Was sad to read about your neighbor - sometimes families get the 'message' last - but it's always difficult deciding what to do.

She said she was getting ready for work but couldn't find her house keys. I saw her at her front door so as I was leaving, I called Russell to go check and make sure she to in. She did. Poor lady.Celticspirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05800065899433548972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-270954739652857229.post-1348958769150277382009-06-30T11:03:02.211-05:002009-06-30T11:03:02.211-05:00107 degree heat?

You hardly need the crockpot - and could leave the cassorole pan out on a sunny counter... yikes - that's hot!<br /><br />I hope your next attempts are less experiments and more successes. :)<br /><br />And you must be really relieved to have the neighbor situation at least in a much better place.

Yeah depending on what you cook some things can taste the same. But that crockpot site has some really good ideas on things I never would have thought to cook in a crockpot. So I'm going to experiment.Celticspirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05800065899433548972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-270954739652857229.post-321771455763633092009-06-30T10:20:01.811-05:002009-06-30T10:20:01.811-05:00Dana: Those crockpots they have for truckers are p...Dana: Those crockpots they have for truckers are pretty neat. I think they would be really good for heating canned stuff that Justin would bring with him but being on the road he can't really cook recipes.

It's OK for the occassional cassarole or something, but that's about it as far as I'm concerned. Hope you find it better, since - in your situation - I'm sure it will be quite useful to use one.<br /><br />I thought the newer crockpots had temperature controls on them?<br /><br />Glad you have contact details for your neighbour's family, and that you found out they are aware of how she's doing. It's good to know they are keeping an eye on her.<br /><br />I'm also glad your garden and blanket are going so well for you. :)<br /><br />Ever After is an amazing movie!Torizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04965005679599352165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-270954739652857229.post-80638805437071471222009-06-29T23:24:19.745-05:002009-06-29T23:24:19.745-05:00Thanks for the crock pot website tip.
