373 | read in the paper that one of our craft shop is closing down been open since 1940s the lady who bought it about 8 years ago isnt a crafter so that is sad you cant own a craft shop and not be a crafter lol twilight23 - 2009-10-03 07:47:00 |

378 | Liz dont forget a photo ;) Liz we here know exactly what you are going through, oldest daughter is pregnant too...but a few weeks ago she miscarried, went for usual scan to see what was going on only to be told that it was twins and one has miscarried. No twins in either family so was HUGE shock and your emotions are torn between sadness and elation. She is due in April. Liz I could tell you not to worry what will be will be but I know exactly how you are feeling. Hugs to you :) coalrange1 - 2009-10-03 18:05:00 |
