Christmas Countdown - 2018

[Holiday]

Lakeside Fans...I just got this email, the newest holiday catalog looks like some cute fall décor and I found a couple of Christmas items.

My LTD Fall catalog is currently with the lake neighbors. They have 3 pieces of paper with orders ready to be placed. I haven't even had a chance to look at it yet - except online!! I know we already have over $200 worth & that's not including my order!! LOL

We ate at Cracker Barrel last night for dinner. We saw all of the fall displays. DH said to DD, "Mommy's favorite time of the year is almost here--Halloween, Thanksgiving, & Christmas!" Being a couple for 29 years and married almost 25, he does know me very well.

Cute!! So exciting!!! Though I love my summer, I'm always happy to have fall, football & the holidays to look forward too!

Oh no!! Ugh what a pain!! Happy to hear it is covered by your warranty!

Thank you, SFM!!

Happy Tuesday!
We had some terrible rain/downpours last night and they say we may get the same today.
Just typical work for me and I am going to catch up on laundry tonight.
Hope you all have a great day!

Happy Tuesday to you!!
Hope you stay dry today~
And that work goes well, too.
Have a wonderful day

Good morning MMC!! Merry Tuesday!!! Not much up today besides work. Tonight we are meeting a new lady possibly interested in helping us out with mom. Looks like it will be another warm & sunny day!! I did get my favorite lighted pumpkin out last night. Since it's getting dark earlier, I thought it was time!

Everyone, have a great day!!!

Good Morning, Holiday!!
Merry Tuesday!!
Hope you guys really like the new lady you are meeting tonight. Fingers crossed that all goes well!!
Have a fabulous day!!

Oh shoot! I just saw this, this morning! I'm glad to hear they were coming yesterday. Did it get fixed? We had that happen one time too! Pita!! I hope Adi's finger is ok & your garage door is back in working order. Have a great day Stacey!

Yes, it's fixed!! Thank God
It is a pita, ha ha!
Turns out the first company Adrian called is the one who couldn't come until today. The one our contractor went through is who I told Adi to check the warranty with, came right away yesterday. There was confusion through our texts, apparently
Adi's finger is fine now, thanks for asking~

********** MILESTONE DAY **********


Good Morning, Holiday Hopers.

And where there's the count, there is always hope of reaching that long-awaited and much-coveted destination.

Today's numbers continue this hope, and we present them with pride:
Days to the Season: 91
Days to Christmas Day: 133

But there is excitement crackling in the air today, for this is a MILESTONE DAY, Folks.
We have arrived at the 3/4 point to the Season!!
Now, it just does not seem feasible that we are already entering the fourth and FINAL quarter of our long journey already.
I had better check the chart twice.
Hmmm.....
It appears to be true, alright.
W-O-W!!

More rain, yesterday. Heavy at times. Clear in the afternoon.
Today is supposed to be drier, but I'll believe it when I see it.
We again starting out damp and overcast this morning, at 70 degrees here in the capital city.

Have a Terrific Tuesday and a Merry Milestone Day, Everybody!

Thanks, Crown!

HAPPY MILESTONE DAY!!!!

It is very painful!! I've had it once before = no fun!!! Sometimes it's worse than others. Like you said, after sitting for awhile it hurts, after standing too long, it hurts & flip flops are a no, no right now! (and probably the cause...) I just took some ibupro & I also have some cream to put on it. Hopefully it goes away quick. Our friend was just over on Sunday & she said her's lasted 6 months. UGH!!!

Prayers for healing and relief, friend!!

 

[snowflake22]

Oh I am so tired of the rain here! The trails and parks are all flooded so there's no point even trying to go for a hike without getting all muddy! Is the beautiful fall weather almost here yet??? When does it start getting cold for y'all? Here in FL we start getting in the 70's around the end of October/ early November.

Good Morning, SnowDog!
Sorry to hear of all the flooding there. Sending prayers.
It starts getting cooler here in Wisconsin by September. Lows in the 50's, highs in the low 70's.
Hope you have a wonderful day!!

Good morning MMC ~
Merry Milestone Day!
Just popping in quick to say hello. I’m not feeling well this morning, I’m trying to fight off a migraine. I had errands to run & chores to do but they’ll have to wait. I’m hoping it passes soon, we have plans to go to my parents house tonight. My fathers sister drove up from Virginia to visit and my parents are having a get together later this evening. I’d hate to miss it.
I have hope everyone is well and has a nice day.
xx

Good Morning, HmG~
So sorry to hear of your migraine. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Harlowe and I are sending big hugs. Hope it passes soon <3
Take good care, and get some rest.
Hope you are feeling much better by this evening, for your parents get together.

Happy milestone day everyone! Sorry I have really been meaning to get stuck back into chatting on here but I have been away in Dubrovnik for a long weekend away! Now I’m back I’m gonna try and get involved a bit more and set up my thread of Christmas popping up around England. Today’s a new day MMC, get out there, give your best & then get home for a well deserved hot chocolate! Have a great day everyone!

Merry Milestone Day, Scott!!
Hot chocolate sounds wonderful right about now (the AC is freezing me out!).
Enjoy your day!!

And just think about this, now: The Blossoms thread will be launching in about 6 weeks!

Can't wait!!!

My lunch break pretty much stunk...

I went home to see Harlowe, which was wonderful.

I heard a loud noise at home, and thought someone had tried to get in storm door but it was locked. I looked and couldn't see anyone. Then I wondered if the noise came from garage, maybe something hit it?

And when I was trying to leave, the garage door wouldn't open very far. It was jammed up. And it was hot in there! 90 degrees outside...I was trying to manually get it open so I could get my car out, but it wouldn't budge. Adrian was gone. So I texted work to say I was temporarily stuck. Eventually Adi came home, and he was trying to get it open, to no avail. Then the poor guy jammed his thumb in it. Yikes...it's a Monday!!
We tried a few different things until we heard something again and realized that the spring had busted. So, I had to take Adi's truck back to work. Garage door company can't come until tomorrow late afternoon. And it's going to be at least $250.00.

Ugh. I hope today is going better for you!

 

[snowflake22]

Good Morning, MMC~

Merry Tuesday!!!

It's another hot and humid day here Trying to grin and bear it!
Work today, hopefully not any more issues at home, some errands at lunch, and a nice walk this evening with Harlowe and Adi... once it cools down.
That's about it for me.

Wishing you all a blessed day!!



This made me chuckle...too cute

Your weather sounds like ours. I'm near Savannah, GA, and it doesn't really get to be "Fall" temps until around Thanksgiving.

 

[snowflake22]

Ugh. I hope today is going better for you!

Thank you, Brad!!
