I recognize the handwriting on that old ledger. It’s “Catholic School Cursive.” BTW, it’s just like mine: and yes, I’m from those ancient times of fountain pens and swirly writing (and nuns)! 😉😂 I was a bookkeeper/secretary, and we kept books just like these ledgers back then: they were HUGE!

Ms. Pam you are right in the eye potential of Ian.... I hope you, Mr. Pam, sunny and holly stay safe! Thinking and praying for you ❤️

[@ThePaperOutpost]

Thank you! Much appreciated! :) Yes, maybe it will hit a bit south of us if there is no wiggle...praying for all affected :)

I am in the UK and just retired from 40 years in NHS hospital pharmacy. In case anyone else is interested: Scrofula is an infection of TB (tuberculosis) in the lymph nodes - which often caused nasty abcesses, Dropsy was the old term for heart failure, consumption was TB, Congestion was likely pneumonia and 'indigestion' was probably gastric ulcers or tumours. Years ago flu was listed as the 'Ague' too. The death certificate for our late beloved Queen was released today and she also is noted as dying of 'old age' as did her husband Prince Philip. Old documents are not just pleasing to the eye but informative too! Imagine the time before carbon paper and photocopiers when everything was copied by hand. Your faux paper is very good! Thanks for the demonstration.

[@hildapederson8174]

The Bic Crystal pen is still the fav of my mother and myself. Only thing we use!!! Little tip when stamping, do the last number or letter first and work back. That way you don't run out of room. I learned that the hard way way back in school when working on posters! Lol! That was a loooong time ago now!

[@rosalindmartz6585]

Great tip.

[@robintrevillian1196]

I was JUST thinking about this last night - making ledge paper. I want to make a junk journal for my niece who graduating with a degree in accounting and is studying for her CPA. Wouldn't that be cute - putting old fashioned accounting ledger paper in her journal? Hope you and your whole family - all 2-legged and 4-legged members - stay safe until the storm passes. (Well, and after that - but definitely during the storm!). Thank you for all craftiness, silliness and real-ness that you share with the community! 😍

[@phantac1096]

I found when I stamp numbers I start with the last, place it where you want to end and work to the left. Perfect placement everytime

[@Elizabeth10525]

Dropsy=edema, Scrofula=severe TB, Consumption =another form of TB. Great idea, stay safe!

[@mandala314]

Drops is "dropped" feet, meaning dragging feet that you can't stand on your heel and raise the front. I was diagnosed with it after a fall & ankle break, it sounded Victorian! But I just needed to stretch.

Fun video to remind us that we don’t have always to have the exact supply at hand. We have the power to create what we need! Thank you!

Hurricanes are the scariest thing that you can see coming at you for days and days. I remember Gilbert approaching S. Texas many years ago, and me careening through a KMart in a panic looking for plastic tubs to save my photo albums.

[@laurafritz697]

Hello Pam 🙋‍♀️and Family! Please stay safe. Lucy and I will be praying for you all!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@makaycaradine]

Fabulous!! Per your request, Scrofula- TB of the neck. Consumption- TB. Dropsy- Edema or swelling. That would be heinous! I can even imagine dying of swelling. We don’t think about how lucky we are to avoid these maladies. 😢 ❤🎉❤

[@makaycaradine]

@Mom Irregardless actually not. Acid reflux is a thing and still can cause death today. 😔

[@robinburdette7201]

The edema is an indication of heart being affected, and the pathways of circulation.

[@debbiev.1311]

@@robinburdette7201 On the right track...edema/dropsey related to what we know as Congestive Heart Failure often associated w/ Chronic Renal/Kidney Failure too! 🤓👩🏼‍⚕️ Had to look this one up: "Scrofula" aka TB of the neck.

You were right the first time Pam. Although it’s a French word, Iroquois is pronounced Ear-A-Koy in the United States, at least up here in the Finger Lakes region of New York where the Iroquois speaking nations originated. I’m sure you were dying to know that…😁

[@poppletop8331]

I'm sure I heard it pronounced "he rack he", in some Western movies...years ago. Did movie producers just not do research/know how to say it?

[@lizlycar]

[@peglamphier4745]

PhD in 19th c. Am. Hist. here.....I'm sure others have answered but yes, consumption is tuberculosis. Dropsy is edema/heart failure. Scrofula is a consumption related illness, rashes etc. It would be fun to take that list and hand write it into a fake ledger paper. Thanks for showing it to us. You are THE BEST.

Hi Pam, Dropsey- swelling of tissue due to accumulation of excess water ( edema). Consumption- serious infections bacterial disease that affects the lungs. Scrofula- cervical tuberculosis lymphadenitis ( inflammation of the lymph nodes in the neck). Slow Fever- typhoid a disease that gets worse over time( sneaks up on you). Enjoyed watching you do this project, thank goodness we live in an age where there are cures for these diseases and many more. 👍🌹🌺🦋I really hope Sunny’s tummy settles down, please give him a hug from me. 👍❤️

We 'get to' carry our garbage in the car to the Refuse Transfer Center. Then it is carried to the landfill far away. Haha! Pioneer living! 🤪 By the way, Scrofula is a fom of Tuberculosis and Dropsy is severe edema so the patient drowns. Ugh! . Have a safe and healthy week. 🥰

My great grandfather's death certificate stated cause of death as "kicked in gut by mule - suffered 3 days". He ran a poor house during the depression and died at 79. Can't imagine how much he suffered from horrible internal injuries. When I was in 4th grade, my teacher taught us all how to write in "proper" cursive. She made us keep practice writing journals for the whole year and she checked it every day. It was half of our final grade that year. The writing included many different ways to write f, r, s and t according to where it fell in a word. I have never come across anyone else who wrote that way and even though I don't write that way every day, I have never forgotten the script or rules. Never thought then that I would find a use for that skill in my future but here we are! Now, if I could just find a daily use for those pesky calculus equations! I just also wanted to join the clan by saying that I hope and pray that you and your loves are all OK. Couldn't imagine a world without you all. All my love from my flooded little farm in North Carolina!
