   I KNOW SOME GEOLOGISTS – AS RECENTLY AS THE 1930S, WHEN THE AERAGE PERSON WITH A JOB EARNED $1 PER DAY, THE AVERAGE FAMILY COULD PURCHASE A 100 POUND SACK OF FLOUR FOR 50 CENTS – AND THE SACKS WERE GOOD FOR DRESSES, SHIRTS, BLOUSES AND SKIRTS = TO NAME A FEW.

   I don’t remember anyone recommending a hot foot bath to help cure a cold. Our cold remedies were more dramatic than that. We used to fry up an onion and put the fried rings in an old sock. Then we tied the sock around our necks. Did wonders for opening up the sinuses.

   Wonderful to see Nancy and her friends getting together for a little fun – even in the middle of winter snow storms.

   Smart girl – getting an early start on next year’s Christmas shopping. And a personal Merry Christmas to us all from the staff. Nice touch. Puts Nancy in a class by herself!

   Must be Christmas cookies – back in the day – most of the Christmas gifts we exchanged were home-made gifts – like fruit cake, cookies, fudge, blankets, pillows, hand-carved horses, hand-sewn rag dolls. Christmas cards were also usually hand made and delivered in person – not by sending them in the mail. My grandmother had a scrap book of every card she ever received and 90 % of them were hand made.

    That Sluggo is such a versatile athlete – today he’s getting together with friends to toss around the football – tomorrow he’s learning the fine points of golf.
