@thedarkninja03 @kimlikesart @claire-h @purpleturtle @olivia Happy thanksgiving to you all!! Love you!
@eitan Not sure when if/when Isreal celebrates Thanksgiving, but I thought I’d wish you a happy one anyway!!-
Thanks! Happy Thanksgiving to you too!!
Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:57 -
Happy Thanksgiving!
-
Oh, thank you for remembering! No, we don’t celebrate it but thank you anyway! Happy Thanksgiving, though I think I’m a bit late… But I wish you all to be happy anyway! 😀
-
Oh okay, I wasn’t sure if you had your own version, or if you didn’t do it at all lol! Thanks! =)
-
-
Haha, thanks! I know I’m super late, but I keep forgetting to check emails and such.
Even though I live in Canada and am totally a Canadian, both my parents are from the States, so we celebrate both Canadian and American Thanksgiving. That way we get double the good food! hahaha
And also because we’re often moose hunting over Canadian…[Read more]-
Cool haha!! Sounds awesome!

Ya, it’s fun!

Just curious, are all of you in your profile picture related? If you don’t want me to know, that’s fine, I was just looking at it and realized all of you look related. Your smiles especially look alike.
-
Yeah! That’s me on the left holding my nephew who’s the son of the second girl on the right. The first girl on the right is my older sister who’s a Marine and the other lady is my Mom. =)
-
Okay, I sorta guessed you were all sisters and that was your mom, but I wasn’t sure. And I wasn’t sure which one was you. 😛 You really all do look a ton alike though! Hahaha
-
Haha! Yeah! Did you know Mom is 50% Sicilian?
-
-
I am very late coming to this, but, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!!!
Thank you Beth. (:
-
Haha, you’re welcome!! =)
-
Cool! I’m not biracial, but I think that would be awesome! My mom does sorta wonder if there is some African-American blood on her side though, because some of the features in our family look like it. Like my hair. You can’t really tell in the picture, but my hair is really kinky and big, so it sorta looks like a white version of African-American…[Read more]

Hey @claire-h and @purpleturtle! Haven’t seen you guys around in a while, though that’s probably because I haven’t been around much myself. Lol.
How are ya doing?
-
@olivia We are doing fine! Nothing much exciting going on here in Missouri besides the election. How are you doing?
-
Pretty good over all. Lol, ya, the election is being talked about here as well, because both my parents are from the States. It’s mostly Daddy who talks about it though.
My family just sold our house but hasn’t found another place to live yet, so we’re staying in a friend’s house who’s gone.
The best part of my life right now…? 😉
WINTER IS…[Read more]
-
-
Glad you guys are doing good up there! I can’t agree with you on your view though! Winter is my second favorite season. Maybe I would like it better if we got more snow here. XD Fall is my favorite because of the changing leaves and the moderately cool temperatures. It’s starting to get colder here and there was frost on the ground this morning!…[Read more]
-
Lol, ya, I know plenty of people up here who don’t like winter more than the other seasons. It’s actually more common for me to meet people who like summer better than winter, despite the awesomeness of it. 😉 Lol Probably because most people find winter slightly depressing because there’s not much daylight. But I don’t mind, since my favourite…[Read more]
-
Fall is really pretty here, with all the changing leaves and stuff, but one of the annoying things about it, is that it gets pretty cold so it’s too cold for hoodies, but not cold enough for a winter coat. Sort of annoying, but I still like it.
-
-
Yeah, it’s kinda like that here. Sorry I didn’t respond sooner, because it is deer season now, so I was busy getting ready and yesterday was opening day. We didn’t see anything but one tiny doe though. 🙁
-
Oh, no problem. I’ve been busy too and it’s not even opening season for anything here. Lol. Moose hunting opened a month or so ago, I don’t really keep track. 😛

Yeah, deer season ends Tuesday, but at least I killed a buck!

Cool!

Hey guys!! How’s it going? Have you gotten chapter 5 of The Silent Bells, yet?-
@beth20 yes we have! How about you?
-
Yeah! Did you read it? XD
-
@beth20 Yep! I think N. D. Wilson could be doing better though. He brought Rupert back too soon after his death. It was like, “Oh no, Rupert is dead!!!” two chapters later: “Oh, now he’s back!” I thought part of the book would be them trying to smash the skull, but they like did it in one chapter and it was really easy. What is your opinion?
-
Yeah, I can see what you mean. I think he’s doing good though. I was very happy when he brought Rupert back though lol!
Do you think he’s gonna bring in characters from 100 Cupboards? -
@beth20 It’s possible, but I don’t know. I mean Henry and Cyrus are cousins, but he might want to keep the two series seperate.
-
Yeah, just after this last chapter it’s got me wondering lol!
-
Me too. The comics are kind of… eeeh.
-
You mean the ones at the end of each chapter?
-
Yeah. They don’t fit with Ashtown Burials.
-
Haha! Yeah, I don’t even read them lol!
-
I don’t blame you. XD
-
Haha! How have you guys been?
-
Pretty good! Except I’m getting tired of wearing a mask. ☹
-
How are you guys doing?
-
Yeah. We don’t really wear masks lol!
We’re good. Been raining, so it’s nice bc it’s clearing up all the smoke! -
Good! So there was a lot of smoke where you live?
-
Yeah, there was. It was all coming from Cali, Oregan, and Washington!
Where do you live again? -
Southeast Missouri, you guys are somewhere in Idaho, right?
-
Oh cool! Yeah, northern Idaho!
-
Nice! We have some friends that moved up there!
-
Nice! Where did they move?
-
Near Priest River somewhere.
-
Are you guys anywhere near there?
-
Cool! Yeah, we are about an hour and a half from there! We used to go to church there.
-
Wow! What a coincidence!

Haha! I know!

Here’s your version of Ruby, @purpleturtle. I hope she looks something like what you imagined. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get her number on her name tag–it was too small. I thought of doing it bigger across the back, but I liked the front view better.

Hello! How are you doing? How are things going on in Missoury? Is there something I can pray for you about?-
@eitan
My family and I are doing well! Thanks for asking! How are you doing? Things are going pretty well here is Missouri, but recently our county issued a mandate that everyone is required to wear a mask if you are closer than six feet to anyone who is not in you immediate household. 😕 Other than that, everything is going well for us! How are…[Read more]-
Hi!
I’m glad you and your family are good! 🙂
Hmm, we already have this mandate for months 🙁
We go through a second infection wave, and we don’t know how and if we will return to school. My family and I are good though!What is the average landscape of Missouri? (It’s humid subtropical, right?)
I’m currently into worldbuilding, and I would be…[Read more]

I’m sorry to hear that you have already had that mandate for a while. 🙁 I don’t think you’d really call Missouri a humid subtropical climate. I don’t know what you would call it, but it gets pretty humid and hot in the summer, but the coldest it will get in the winter is probably -10, which is pretty rare. It’s normally about 32-40 during an…[Read more]

P. S. I found this on Wikipedia, I hope it helps!
Missouri generally has a variety of seasonal humid subtropical climate (Köppen climate classification Cfa), with cool winters and long, hot summers.

@beth20 Yup! I had said I thought he had already had a tumor removed?
Oh, maybe…I’m not 100% sure. Maybe it like keeps coming back?
Also, you don’t have to tag me now bc this is my thread XD and I’ll get notified
Ok!
So…what should we talk about? XD
Have you played 1.17 yet? I found a geode and made a spyglass.
No!
Wow!! That’s cool! I’ll have to play it sometime. Do you have to download it? Or just open Minecraft and wait for it to load the update?
It depends. What platform do you play on?
Well, I have Minecraft on PS4, Xbox 360 and on my laptop
Idk about console, but what version do you have on your laptop?
Bedrock…? I think anyway lol
For bedrock you go to Microsoft store, and either click the three dots and then downloads and updates and then update it, or click the download arrow that may or may not be there.
Okay! I’ll try rn
Did I tell you we went to the beach?
No, but I can kinda tell from your pfp! Lol
Did you have a good time?
Lol!
Yess!! It was so much fun!! I love the ocean like crazy haha, plus my best friend and his family came, which made it even more fun!
Sounds like fun! I personally don’t care for the beach that much… I guess I’m more of a mountain guy. XD
Wow, so sorry I didn’t get to this sooner!!!
Yeah, I love the beach, but mountains are cool too! I just live in the mountains, so I see them a lot more than the ocean lol
I forgot you LIVED in the mountains, lol
Haha, yep good old mountains. We live near Scotchman’s peak. Look it up lol
Wow! I wish we had mountains where we lived!
Yeah, I kinda forget that a lot of people don’t lol I’ve gotten so used to it
Lucky… 😒
Yeah…
How are you today?
Pretty good, just getting stuff ready for Sunday. How about you?
Nice!
I’m good too. Just talking to different people online. Worked a little today…
Yeah, normally I work all day with my dad, but he had a meeting today, so I just cleaned chicken coops. 😝
Yeah, my brother does the same
Ugh, chickens can be so nasty lol
Hey man, dinner’s ready, I’ll talk to you tomorrow possibly =)
Dinner? I gotta get in bed, lol.
Haha, well goodnight!
Hey man, how are you?
Pretty good! How ’bout you?
That’s good!
I’m doing pretty well! Went swimming again today. What did you do?
School and started Ori and the Will of the Wisps.
Nice!
Do you not have a summer break for school?
Yeah, we normally do school all year long. Did you ever try playing 1.17?
Oh, that’s kinda annoying
I did a little! Haven’t done much with it though lol
Yeah, I think the spyglass is one of the best features.
Yeah, I’ll have to play it some more!
Hey man, u gonna do the Crazy Writing Week?
I didn’t know it was going on. I think I may have unsubscribed from Brett Harris. I probably will tho.
Okie!
Hey! How are you?
I am good! We just got back from a vacation in the Smoky Mountains. What have you been up to? Also, me and Claire have been wondering if the Silent Bells Serial is still going on.
Cool!!
School, writing, reading working…
Um, not actually sure lol. We still haven’t got the 14th chapter and my mom keeps forgetting to write them about it
So you still haven’t gotten any more? Or did the 14th chapter just get skipped?
Yeah, we still haven’t gotten any more. I think maybe the 14th chapter was the last one though, I’m not sure… I think mom is gonna email them about it lol
Hmmmm…
Well, mom emailed them, and they said their gonna ship us another one lol
But they haven’t made any since chapter 14?
No, I don’t think so.
Did you finish Les Miserables? (I can’t remember lol)
Yeah, I finished re-reading it a while ago. What have you been reading lately?
Cool! I watched the movie, which made me want to read the book haha!
I’m just now finishing the 7th KotLCs, and am reading the 2 Darkest Minds, a writing book called Creating Character Arcs and two books to my younger sister
Nice! Have you heard of The Wheel Of Time series?
Yeah, I read the comic book for that I think… are you reading the actuall novels?
Yeah, the comic book is an extra to the series I think. Is it called spring smthn?
Yeah, the one I read is called Eye of the World, but the ‘first’ one that’s actually the ‘0’ one XD is called New Spring. There’s 6 of them I think.
Lol. I think there is like 15. I’m on number 4 rn.
15 novels or graphic-novels? lol
Novels. They’re pretty thick.
Oh okay lol
What have you been up to lately?
Hey!! Sorry I didn’t get to this sooner, our internet is being weird rn, and doesn’t like SE lol
I am currently at the beach with some of the fam for Thanksgiving which is fun!
Hbu??
That sounds fun! I have been doing a lot of hunting recently, but all I saw was does and small bucks, so I didn’t get one. I did see a good sized buck on opening day, but my dad accidently handed me 243 ammo instead of 308. Needless to say, I shot twice and missed. 😞 Today we are going over to my grandma’s for thanksgiving. I hope you have a happy…[Read more]

Oh wow, I’ve never gone hunting. That’s a bummer you missed it
How was your Thanksgiving?
I just wanted to give you an update for CWW, it’s only going to happen once a year now, so the next one is Jan 3-10 2022, and that will be the only one for that year.
Oh, what have you guys been doing for…[Read more]
Pretty good! My grandma and grandpa on my dad’s side were in Hawaii, so we had Thanksgiving at my other grandparents house. There was a lot of food and desert of course. Didn’t they use to do CWW at least twice a year? It’s a shame it’s only once now. I’ll have to mark my calendar though. Here in Missouri, it just doesn’t seem like Christmas time,…[Read more]
Oh fun!!
Yeah, I think they used to do it three times a year… but not sure.
Oh haha, we have about five inches of snow here, and we got the tree up and decorated about a week ago.
I got some Christmas shopping done, but not a whole lot.
Cool! No snow here in Missouri yet, just rain.
Oh bummer
I just re-watched Les Miserable, and now I really want to read the book!!
Did you see this? https://theyoungwriter.com/challenge/
Not sure you get the emails or not lol
Yeah, it’s a pretty exiting book except that half the chapters are just history lessons, and is not really part of the story that much. (Sorry for the late reply, wifi wasn’t working when I saw your answer and then I kinda forgot) Yeah, I don’t get the emails anymore because they sent me a little too much, lol
Hey! (Sorry, I’m sooo bad at checking this XD)
Yeah, lol, well I still want to read it!
Also, Merry Christmas!!! Hope you guys are having a good time!!!
Merry Christmas! We are having a nice warm Christmas here at around 70°, lol. What’s it like in Idaho?
I’m not gonna be able to do the CWW. I’ve been a little too busy lately. 🙁
Hey, so sorry, I don’t know why I can’t keep up with this *all the facepalms*
Christmas was snowy and kinda cold lol, but I like snow on Christmas
Yeah, in Missouri, having a white Christmas is a joke because it never happens, lol
Oh, that’s pretty sad!
