I know there are a few stampers up at Beale AFB in CA. I was just out visiting my grandparents, and I saw a stamped Christmas card! I asked who it was from, and my Nana told me it was from the daughter of some very dear friends of theirs. Her name is Pam Stephens, and her hubby is stationed at Beale. I met her last year at the state fair in Sacto...very nice lady...and our families have been friends since before I was born. I just thought that maybe one of you Beale people might know Pam since she is also there and is a stamper!

Mona: If you have any Benadryl cream or ointment around the house you might want to apply that to the sting. It will relieve any stinging, itching or pain that you might have. Also...as a child I use to get stung a lot and I remember my mother making a paste with water and baking soda(?) and applying it to the affected area. Then, she tore up an old sheet and wrapped it with bandage strips. Hope this helps. Take care. Libby CowPost wrote: > > Anyone have a good remedy for the pain of a bee sting?

Thank you to everyone who made my Christmas wonderful. The chocolates and presents were wonderful. I'm sorry I don't have time to make everyone drool over my goodies! Tee Hee! Also thank you to everyone who send Christmas Cards....your talent keeps fascinating me! I loved every single one of them! One of my gifts included the last seat on a direct flight to Cincinnati that leaves tomorrow so I'm going to see my son and to clear my head over this problem we have encountered with my kidneys. I love my Internist and I just need to spend some time with her. I'll be alright about all this and hopefully the treatments will get back on schedule on Jan. 12th. I will be taking an oral form of Chemo just to try to maintain our progress. Sometimes it just means taking a mental and physical break from the treatment to put it all back into proportion. The time will hopefully give the kidneys time to repair some of the damage the chemicals have done! Just keep those prayers coming! I'm so happy to read about the joy of the Santa and Giggles Ride. I guess the next time Santa ask for a stamping wish.......more people will pay attention! Ha! Ha~ Anymore people payed attention and we would have had to start shipping in September! If your name wasn't mentioned it doesn't mean you don't mean the world to me but it does mean that no matter how prepared you think you are to do that, without the information right in front of you names go floating out the window! My deepest appreciation goes out to the wonderful Vendors who have helped make the Grabem Grab Bags a great success and to all those who take part in all the wonderful things people do for me on this list! Janet and/or Frank please send my new SSS info to me and Peter Pan will be able to tell me who I get to torture for the next 6 months! Ha! Ha! Ha! I wish all of you the very best life has to offer for the New Year and I hope that everyone will appreciate the great feeling of health! I personally am thanking God that I was granted another year to laugh, love, live and learn from all the great people I have enclosed in my life! HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!! Giggles to you always!

When you want a glue that won't wrinkle, that will bond almost forever, and will be Ph neutral, you will turn to your jar of Yes! Make sure it stays workable--put a speck of water in the jar from time to time. It is great for covering boxes, stiffening fabric, collage work. Use it with a brush for best results--and you can thin it a bit, but not too much, with plain water.

I store mine similar to Lori. I use A2 size envelopes and those plastic mini chests. I can put a double row of envelopes in each drawer. Stamp the image on the envelope and write the name of the company on it too. Then sort by subject. Easy to rearrange. I have a lot of cat stamps. So one whole drawer holds the cats. I use HALOS - wonderful idea. I do not like the acrylic mounts though. So I have several sizes of wood blocks completely covered with the hook tape. The acrylic mounts are not thick enough. I get ink all over my fingers when I stamp the ink pad. CatStamPurr - Barbara Simpson - Petaluma CA At 08:11 PM 12/26/97 +0000, Lori Blaauw wrote: >I keep mine in size A envelopes in photo boxes.

Well, here's how I do it. Last spring I decided to go to HALOS, and unmounted all my wood mounted and put them on HALOS. There are many ways to deal with HALO storage and here's what I do: As I mount each stamp, I stamp it on three sheets of paper. If I know who the mfg of the stamp is, I write that next to the image on the paper. I sort them before mounting into the categories I prefer and then try to put all same category images on the same page or pages. I put each set of the stamped image pages into page protecters in looseleaf binders. In one of the binders I add a page protector with a blank sheet of cardstock next to each page of images. On these pages I place strips of the hook tape and place the rubber dies (mounted on fuzzy tape) on these in a similar position to the images on the opposite page. Depending on how many stamps you have, this can take many binders. Mine currently take 5 of the 3" binders. But I also have a whole drawer almost full that are stuck on the HALOs fuzzy tape but not cut or stamped in the directories yet. When I get to them it will probaly take another 2 or possibly 3 more binders. The other two binders - one I keep on the computer desk. This one is the one I used for reference so I know what stamp credits to put with my cards. The third one lives in the car so that if I happen to find myself in the neighborhood of a stamp store, I'll have my directory along with me to ensure I don't purchase duplicates. And of course, I have continued to buy wood mounted stamps when that urge for instant gratification strikes. And as a result, since I tore all my stamps off the wood, I have collected a whole bunch more. A few weeks ago, I ran over to Home Depot and picked up 2 boards 6 feet long each and 1/2" thick x 2" wide. Hubby was away, and I was anxious to get this done, so I also got some of those L shaped screw-in thingies. I screwed the thingies into the wall and laid the boards across them. 3 thingies to each board. Now I have 12 feet of narrow 2" shelve space above the sofabed. And on these shelves are the wood mounted stamps I have purchased and not yet moved to HALOS. I may keep some of these, especially the BIG ones, on the wood. They do make pretty artwork on the wall. Anyway, some of these are doubled up (one on top of another), but the two shelves are already full and I may have to put up another. --`--,--{@ Patti in Fort Myers, FL @}--`--,-- ~:~^~:~^~:~^~:~^~:~^~:~^~:~^~:~^~:~^~:~^~:~^~:~ Computers are life.
