Hang on mogsie, hope it passes you and you keep your lid i.e. roof.
I lost my roof in arizona once, wind sheer of 140 mph took off 3000 roofs all the north side, then it rained 2 inches. Needless to say a lot of repair to be done. Cost 70k to fix a house my previous hubby paid 72 k for.

mogsie wish I could send you some of the nicer weather and will ask Santa to drop some off on his way over your house .But sure glad to hear you are OK and those winds must be really hitting the house hard at 60 .Put rocks in your pockets when you go out side .Be safe .I saw on the weather channel here about the flooding there and the high winds and damage to homes .Keeping you and yours in my thoughts .

Margie died in 85 and mom and dad in 86 .We have lots of our pets names on there also .I did not want to unfold it since it was on the table and we already had it covered by plastic to save it from spills .We all sit and read it and remember funny memories of the past and of people no longer with us .Every year also we put on there who's house it was at that year

That is so very cool and precious for your family to gather around each year. Hope it goes on forever getting passed down from generation to generation :cheerful:

I think soon they will need to make another one .We have to tell the smaller ones who people are .Family is spreading out and not as many of us here to celebrate .It gets harder every year but we try .My brother in law was 4 years old when we started and my first son was born in 1976 and he was the first grandchild .Hard to believe it has been that long .But we do cherish the memories .My hubbies grandparents were the first ones to sign it .Funny but saying that makes me see how much miss them .I love my hubbies family .Been coping photo's for weeks so I can give the younger ones some history of there family .Seems younger people do not think about it until you mention it or post photo's on face book and then they ask for copies
