Christmas Countdown - 2018

[nmc42088]

Nothing too much going on here. I am off of work today but still have lots to do. I have to go order Carolina's cake for her birthday Sunday. After that I will come home and finally swap out summer clothes for fall/winter clothes. I also have to wash more of my fall clothes. It will be a busy day for me but my dad will be home and he will keep Carolina busy if she wants him too

Have a great day, HMG! Are you all set for the shower?

Pretty much set, just tying up some loose ends today!!!

 

[HomemakinGirl]

I hope you were able to find an outfit for the shower!

Thankfully I did

Good Morning. I walked out the door this morning with just a t-shirt on, and oh yea, it was just a tad bit chilly out there. I didn't see any frost, but whoa, what a difference in the temperature.

I'm home today as I have been since Tuesday afternoon, I was feeling really bad, and I was in so much pain Tuesday in my abdomen, while at work, that I called my wife, because I thought I was going to pass out. I was shaking, white as a ghost, sweating profusely (it was dripping off my hair) my clothes were wet with sweat and I was slurring my words. She came and picked me up at work because I didn't want to go in an ambulance and she took me to the emergency room. I'm home, feeling a bit better now, but I am still sore, still feeling some minor pain and not yet feeling 100% of my old self. I've been resting, using a heating pad and just tryin not to overdo things.

I'm getting ready to rest now because I'm sore.

I hope you’re feeling better xmastidings, take good care!

Merry Friday MMC!
I’m having my coffee and I’m working on a menu plan and grocery list. I have to run a couple of quick errands this morning then back home to work on some chores. I also have to finish up the bridal shower favors and make sure I’m not forgetting anything for tomorrow. The girls and I are so excited, it should be a beautiful day.
I hope everyone has a nice day and a great weekend ahead!

Good Morning, MMC Residents!
And it's a great place to dwell, isn't it?

While you're at it, dwell on this:
Days to Halloween: 12 (Close now to SINGLE DIGITS!)
Days to the Season: 25 (Just over 3 1/2 weeks!)
Days to Christmas Day: 67 (Barely over 9 1/2 weeks!)
Whittling away at those figures, Guys.

Getting chillier by the day. We are at a sub-normal 45 degrees here to start the morning and our high will remain in the 60's. (We should be in the low 70's this time of the year.)
At least no rain is predicted.

Weekend Eve.
It's here once again.
Enjoy it while you have a Fabulous Friday, Friends!

TGIF!! So glad it is Friday!! This has been a long week. Tomorrow we are headed to our friend's son's football game. He plays football for a college about an hour away so we are going to tailgate and then go to the game. Should be a lot of fun. That is about it for us...hope you all have a great day and weekend!

Good morning MMC!! TGIF! Merry Friday!!!!

Just work for me today at the old job - then I'll be heading home to get things ready to head to the lake. Only 2 weekends left out there. Booo!!! It's a good thing our furnace was fixed b/c tomorrow night is our 1st chance of snow...looks like tomorrow could be a pretty "nasty" weather day!! I'll be thankful for the heat!



Tomorrow morning I will go stay with mom until my sister gets there. Then I'll head back to the lake to watch some football. Bucks play at 7:30 but I don't think the weather is going to cooperate to put them up on the big screen! Sunday afternoon our friend is playing at the bar up the street from our trailer so we'll head up there. That's about it for the weekend. Anybody have fun plans?

Have a great day everyone!!!!!

Friends, I just want to share how full my heart feels...sitting here with my girls in my lap as we watch Charlie Brown.

These are the moments I know I will dream of one day....

Carolina sat in my lap and watched it too! Such sweet moments

DD is 13 & we watched together. She said we didn't have to watch the Toy Story Halloween short afterward because that wasn't "our tradition"!

We have so many little traditions in our family for all sorts of occasions that she still likes to be a part of. I hope she'll think back on those as fondly as I do a few of my childhood traditions.

DD has band competition tomorrow. Meet at the school at 7:00 am to load, travel, compete, travel back. It will probably be 3:00 am Sunday before we fall back into bed for a few hours. We're tired already, but we know these years with DD are swiftly passing and we enjoy watching & listening as she enjoys playing percussion.

Happy Friday!

Took a vacation day today to get a little rest and work on Christmas projects. Gosh, it feels so good to make my own schedule today! Next Friday the piano will be tuned. That always gets me in the mood for the holidays—-when I hear the tuning going on, I know it’s that time of year.

 

[Holiday]

They are truly blessed to have nothing tougher going on in their lives...

Amen!

 

[Holiday]

Look what I did today?
My first (little) Christmas tree is up
- and it makes me so happy! ♥

Cant wait to put out the big ones next month!!

Love, Love, Love!!!!! ♥ ♥ ♥
Did you say next month!! Wow - that just hit me. You are right....it's NEXT month!!!

Merry Thursday!

Merry Friday!!!

Good Friday MMC! One way or another I'm gonna leave work close to on time today. This week wiped me out. The chill is real out there. It doesn't feel like October. But I saw the predictions for the winter yesterday on the weather channel and most of the country is predicted to have a mild winter overall. Our area is close to the edge of normal though so not sure how warm it will be here. Have a great one!

Hope you get out of work on time & have a nice relaxing weekend!
