Hi Hatrack! I've missed you SO MUCH! I've moved to Dragonwood, and we're still working on obtaining wireless broadband... it can be done if we can convince our neighbors to also join up and then the waves can be bounced off their house.
It's been a beautiful year. The little house is nearly finished. Hubby is putting in the kitchen countertops today. Hopefully, the sink and dishwasher will be done by the next weekend.
Baby is due Nov. 19th, and I am HUGE. We're excited and ready for him to come. Livvy mentioned some of you are interested in an "online baby shower" of sorts. I think the best present you could give would be to do something that makes the world a better place - for my kiddo and everyone. Whether that's helping a neighborhood school, donating to a charity, or cleaning up a roadside, it makes my heart happy and this world a nicer place to live.
I wish I could write longer, but my internet time is limited (little library on my errand day). I'll check back while I'm still here, but I have to leave in 10 minutes or so.
Always, Andrea (Jenny Gardener)
PS. Olivia, I believe, has my new address and phone number. I trust her discretion.

I figured you'd all be glad to know I'm still alive...
As far as I know, the May Revel is still on at Dragonwood for the first Saturday in May...Hatrackers are invited!

Whew, I needed that. Not so steady on my feet these days. *Swings huge, ready to pop belly onto pillows*

Look! Jenny! *dances* *hugs gently*
Yay on the little house, and the imminent little person. May the birth go well, and easily.

I hope all goes well with both the birth and the house.

Off topic : Hey, Derrel! It's been a while since I haven't seen you around. *waves*
On topic : And of course a lot of good vibes for Jenny and her baby.

Andrea, dear, you were missed!
*hugs*
Posted by Jenny Gardener (Member # 903) on :
Well, darlings, I've gotta go. Remember that I think of you often, wondering what's happening on the River. Unfortunately, it may be another long time until I check in again. By that time, the Little Crow will be born. Take care, until I see you again. Namarie.
Posted by Noemon (Member # 1115) on :
Hey, Jenny, sorry I missed you just now. Good to see you!
Tell Little Crow to hold of until the 21st, and I'll happily share my birthday.

Jenny visited and I missed it!
Whoo-eee! That baby could come any day now, you know.
*goes digging for her number*
Posted by romanylass (Member # 6306) on :
Jenna! So good to see you. I hope you get wireless soon.
Would your baby like a flock of ducklings, or maybe some bunnies?
Posted by VĂ¡na (Member # 6593) on :
So good to hear from you, Jenny!
Posted by Stray (Member # 4056) on :
Great to hear from you, Jenny, and I'm getting that baby stuff I knitted for you into the mail pronto! Hope it gets to you before the little guy decides to make his entrance

Hi Jenny!!! You've been missed. I thought of you this weekend as I was putting my garden to bed. (Well almost to bed. I'm planting bulbs this weekend. Will that count as making the world more beautiful? I'll set them in honor of the Little Crow, how's that?)
Posted by ketchupqueen (Member # 6877) on :
I missed Jenny! Well, when she sees this, HI!!! *waves arm off*
Posted by breyerchic04 (Member # 6423) on :
I wanna go to the May Revel, but that weekend sounds either very good or very bad, I won't know which till spring. Does anyone know where dragonwood is (yes I know Indiana)?
Miss you Jennyg!
Posted by Stray (Member # 4056) on :
Dragonwood is near Kempton, IN, which looks like it's maybe an hour or so north of Indy. I definitely want to go to the revel, maybe when the time gets closer some of us can carpool up.
Posted by breyerchic04 (Member # 6423) on :
Ok, thanks Stray. It'll depend if my classes are over, or finals are the next week, but I'm almost going to count on it.

Hi!! I'm back for good. No broadband yet, but we can at least get dial-up. I'm happy. Little Crow was born Nov. 25th. He's beautiful and smart (of course). Fairygirl is a most excellent big sister. We call her the Little Mother around here.

Missed you, girl.

Hi Jenny! Glad you're back and all is well.
We have a little mother here too - sometimes when she's holding the babe and I try to take him back, she says, "No. My Samuel!"

Please forgive me! My computer crashed just before thanksgiving and I lost all my data.
Including all my address and phone number files. *wince*
If you get email set up again, would you mind sending me your contact info again. I really am sorry for being such a sucky friend.
