    With one dollar in 1957, I could purchase 10 to 20 full size candy bars. I recall clearly as that is the amount Grandpa always passed out at each visit. I believe we paid 5 cents for a full size Hershey bar at the neighborhood grocery store. So sorry to hear how ill you have been and so glad you are back!!!

We had a Kelloggs bowl collection when I was growing up, not as exciting as a doll I know. Can’t say husband was very interested if I’m honest 😂 Gary is adorable. Sorry to hear about your whooping cough it sounds horrendous, hope you feel better soon. I absolutely love the dress you were wearing, I’ve been looking for a pattern to make a dress in exactly this style.

    I’ve been so darn busy I missed out on the update. Paula I’m so sorry you have whooping cough. I understand it is just the energy… it zaps your energy to be so ill. The fairgrounds socks have inspired me to knit a Kaye Jones sock pattern. I’ve given up on socks but I love knitting on double points. I think the magic loops messed up my sock mojo. Too much magic of a bad kind. I have beautiful singles of various sock yarns. They need to be socks. I have some stripes as well. I’m not sick but I have fluid in my ear. It is making clicking sounds. The doctor gave me medicine to use but it has been near a week and I’m exhausted probably the medication along with the fluid. Oh yes I had dental work as well… my whole head is annoyed. Rest when you can you will get out running again. James socks are Aurora colors. Thank you Paula. I’m a fan of Mrs. D and mister and all the little ds. Poor Meg. She will be prepared now for the next opportunity.

Gary is such a sweetheart, he must cheer you up! We’ve received our happy mail from you, Lady Jane Grey for Sian and the gorgeous little bag for me. Lady Jane is adorable, so detailed, I love her outfit so much, I hope she behaves herself! We have a new kitten, Sian brought her home from work at the vets. She’s beautiful and we love her to bits. She’s very tiny because she was dumped at the side of the motorway near us, she was only about 4 to 5 weeks old. Wicked people! But she’ll be very loved with us.❤️Feel better soon Paula, we missed you xxx

Sending prayers your way for full recovery. All the socks were so beautiful, love the colors. I am working on a pair of Fairground socks while watching. I love the pattern. I'm planning on the Quilted sock pattern next, they look so.squishy. That Battenburg blanket with those colors is so gorgeous. Your squares are absolutely perfect, do you block them?

    My daughter got whooping cough when she was about 3 and it was horrible, she couldn’t keep food down, we had to feed her a bit at a time as she was plumped up on a pillow and stay there for about a half hour not moving. She had a box of tissues and a bowl that she took everywhere with her for about 3 months in case she threw up. Poor little sweetie, she got so thin and was exhausted all the time. I hope you feel better soon. Gary is just sweet🥰. For my 12th birthday I got a record player and a few 45 records , Petulia Clark’s Downtown was one of them. I also got Beatle boots and hat, thought I was pretty cool.🤣😂

    Pauline, sorry to hear you've been so unwell. My daughter had whooping cough as a baby and it was horrible and scary. The doctor said that sitting in a steamy bathroom would help as the warm steam helps to open up your tubes helping you to breathe. Also sleeping elevated with pillows helps too. Anyhoo, I hope you feel better soon. Puppy Garry is gorgeous. I love that puppy smell😊. You take care. X

    So sorry to hear you are feeling poorly with whooping cough. I do hope you feel so much better soon. Gary is the cutest little thing. I am not a 'doggie' person but Gary is just like a little baby. ❤❤
