  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

I know it's been along time again. Sorry about that.
It took me awhile to get back to my old self after being sick.
And then the holidays just started coming faster than I could keep up.
I hope you are all well. I have thought about you all while I have been away.
Well I just wanted to stop in and say hi and see how everyone was doing.
I will be stopping in to check on you all.
Have a great day and God Bless

It is great to have you back with us. Yes it is easy to lose touch here over time. I am now just getting back into it and then I am entering another busy time here at home. I have a Korean Homestay student coming for 6 weeks on Friday. I must get the room and house in order. It is amazing how quickly things deteriorate. It looked so fabulous last Friday for our Party. :help: Cheers Jan

I am so happy to be back.
I have missed talking with all of you.
We are almost done here with our decorating for Christmas. It will soon be time to start baking. I wish that I had friends that like to do cookie swaps, but most of my friends either don't like to cook or are too busy to take a day and bake and share. Maybe next year.
Have a great day.
God Bless

Thank you Ariel.
It's been awhile since I was here on a regular basis, but I hope that will not happen again.
Take care

Thanks for the kind words and concerns from all. I just haven't been on the net much for sometime.

Briefly, we had a bad tennant who literally destroyed our house and we have been busy with legal battles getting him out of the house. It took 4 months and thousands of dollars. The damage could reach 30,000.00 before we are done..Nasty lanlords, you know!

At any rate, we finally got him out by writing off his dates based on a ultimatum date to be out. Well worth it.

The young couple wanting to move in have friends all helping to physically pt the house back into living condition and they will hopefully be in in time for Christmas. We will give them free rent until February 1st as a partial reward for their labours..they refuse any monies for their labours.

Thanks again. We are well, but will still be absent for sometime.

Cheers, Merry Christmas to all, and God bless,

Jim

So sorry to hear about the struggles with tennants. We have a small apt that we rent out for my mother in law and have been lucky with our last tennant but it is vacant now as we had some moisture damage to repair first. MY son was the first and WORST tennant. I won't make that mistake again. Jan

What a creative card, Dave! I enjoyed that.

Jim, I'm sorry too, to hear about the trouble you had with your tenants. Not fun. It sounds like you have some wonderful new tenants, though, and hopefully they will be able to bring everything back to what it should be.

Jan, it's so nice to see you. I hope you are doing better.

Hello njsister, Jan, Dave, Jim, Ley! I hope your day is going well!

It is cold today in West Texas. We keep on thinking we are going outside to do our lights, not so. Brrrr.

The birds keep on coming to my empty bird feeder. Well, I guess I'll go out there in a few minutes and fill it. It's something to watch these birds come in--whole flocks of 30 or more, all trying to eat at my feeder. LOL! They don't all fit!

How are you doing today?
