That’s so scary about the pine tree falling, thank God no one was hurt and it missed the house!
I’m very happy to hear that your mother is on the mend. I hope she’s back to feeling 100% soon.
Thoughts and prayers for you, Adrian and Harlowe, I hope you’re all doing well!
xo

Thank you so much, HmG!
Adrian is liking his new job, and staying busy with his second job, as well. He’s adjusting to balancing his time.
I try to remind him to take time for himself and do something he enjoys each weekend, so he doesn’t burn out.
Harlowe is good, she got groomed yesterday & they cut her hair short again, even though it’s chilly. Poor little one was shivering last night. So I put her new coat on for the first time. She doesn’t like them, but I’m sure her walk was much more comfortable She looked adorable, by the way!
Hope you guys are doing great~ sending hugs.

Have a merry evening, my friend!

Has your cold front moved in?

Hope you & P-cat have a merry night!! Xx

Good afternoon, MMC~

Hope you're all having a nice Pines Day!

Speaking of pines...we had a large pine tree fall on our property from last Thursday's storm. I had to do some digging on the county website, but it ended up falling from city property, and they removed it promptly. We're just relieved that no one was hurt, and that it missed the house.
In case the city wouldn't have been so neighborly, our friends/neighbors on our cul de sac were ready to help. We are quite blessed.

I called to check in on my Mom last night, and Dad answered. He said that she was on her first outing in over a week and a half, at a quilt guild meeting. Yesterday was a decent day for her <3 She finished her antibiotics, we are praying that good days and healing continue. Thanks again for the prayers for her.

Fall weather has arrived in Wisconsin. We went from 70's to 40's in 24 hours. So from average temps to below average very quickly. It was chilly last night on our walk, with rain and winds. It made firing up the fireplace feel even cozier.

Wishing you a merry rest of your day! See you tonight.

Glad to hear your Mom is doing better. I’ve been keeping her in mind and prayer.

Hope you had a great time at Hobby Lobby & found some fun things!!
Have a great day nmc!

Hope you had a great day Holiday!

Sounds like a great trip to Hobby Lobby. Gotta love seeing Christmas things out!!! Hope Carolina's 1st bible study goes well.

Thanks! I am sitting at the church reading now. She was afraid to go because she thought no one would like her. I had to explain that everyone who is on the Childrens Ministry just loves her and that it would be okay. Once we got to church she was fine and having a good time before the group even started.

Morning MMC. Well I went out to dinner last night and chipped a front tooth so now I gotta go to the dentist today. Oops. Other than that, just hard to believe September is going so fast now. One of my favorite words is "October" as a big fan of Halloween and it's just hard to believe it's coming Monday. Have a good day before Friday comes!

Sorry to hear that Edge....hopefully it is a quick fix!

Happy Friday Eve....looks like we are finally drying out from all this rain. Typical work day for me and then my youngest has softball practice. Hope you all have a great day as we head into the last weekend of September!

Good Morning, Travelers in Arms!

We voyage together through thick and thin to the same shared destination that is our holiday season of choice.

Pressing on then, we present the latest numbers with pride:
Days to the Season: 47
Days to Christmas Day: 89

And also with pride (coupled with a bit of trepidation) we present the latest update on our Milestone marker situation:
We are now but 10 days short of the NINETY PERCENT HOME STRETCH point to Christmas Season 2018.
SINGLE DIGITS from tomorrow.
(Holy Holly and Mistletoe, Batman!)

Felt like summer was fully back yesterday, with elevated temps and the humidty to match.
Today shows an 80 percent chance of rain with our high staying in the low 80's.
It is currently rather cloudy after a light rain last night, with a thermometer reading of 71 degrees here in the capital city.

Have a Thrilling Thursday, Folks!
(And the grapevine rumor has it that something big just might be happening in the next day or two. Stay tuned!)

 

[XmasDreams]

Good Morning everyone. Hope that it is a wonderful day for each and all of my fellow Christmas family. Today we have temps in the upper 60's and then back to the mid 80's for the rest of the week. Hopefully the fall temps will make it to TN permanently soon.

So yea this is a thing, not sure why and if it would be any good. macaroni and Cheese Candy canes.

We finally get to go to Duffields for Carolinas school trip today. We will go on a hayride to the pumpkin patch and pick pumpkins. The classes will each get a bible lesson from their bible teacher in the learning barn. While they are with their bible teacher the parents will be able to go inside the farm stand and shop if they would like.
The high today should be 69 which is perfect for a hayride. It is supposed to rain tonight into tomorrow. I hope everyone has a great day

I get to say "Good Morning MMC" today as I'm at my "old" job 1st this morning! Merry Friday Eve!!

Just work for me today job #1, then job #2 this afternoon - tonight I have a ton of laundry to do- I've been slacking this week!! I'll get that started at lunch. Last night I browned some burger to make chili over the fire this weekend, & also made some cheddar pepper pretzels for the weekend. We had a bonfire at the neighbors. It got later than I excepted, but boy did I sleep good when I finally made it to bed!

I hope you all have a wonderful day!!!

 

[Holiday]

That's what I'M talking about! It was 94° at lunch. Whew!

I really don't mean this to rub it in, but I'm just sayin... my hubby went outside this morning before he left for work to let Lucy in & he came back inside b/c he said it's chilly enough, he needed a coat! EEK! Here it comes!

@Bradmac I saw this on facebook and it made me think of you

 

[made582]

The establishment looks far more dangerous to your fiscal health than QVC.

Very much so!!!

Oh man!! How fun!!! Did you eat at Zenders??? (And buy some of their chicken seasoning??) Hope you had/are having a GREAT time!!!

We didn’t. We weren’t hungry when we were walking around town. Then when we went and checked into the hotel over in Bridgeport, Mom was starving and just wanted to walk next door to Cracker Barrel instead of going back.

Hope you're having a fun time in Amishville & all your travels are safe!!!
Can't wait to see your pics!!!!

Thanks!! Amishville was fun!! It was the last day for the outdoor flea market in shipshewana, so we got some good deals. And the food, I thought I was going to explode. Lol!!
