Congrats to her and Justin !
How exciting! Congrats indeed.
Good Thursday morning, Christmas friends!
After work, Elizabeth told me that she and her cousin were planning to cook dinner for us...shrimp alfredo tortellini! Sounded great, and it was, but it was 9:30pm before it was ready LOL. I was starving! They made everything from scratch, so it took a lot of effort. They even prepared the table for Nancy and me, complete with sparkling grape juice in plastic wine glasses LOL. It was a great meal!
She's going out the friends, so I'm probably back to Taco Bell tonight.
I hope y'all have a great day!

Oh, Sugar, I'm sorry you're going through so much suffering. Thank goodness you knew when it was time to get help. I pray God will continue to guide you toward healing. Thanks for keeping us posted.
Thankyou Christmasstar!
Happy New Year, Holiday!!Good evening MMC!!! I wanted to log on yesterday to wish you all a Happy New Year & to check out the new countdown thread, but the day got away from me.... soooo...HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
Today was my 1st full day at the new job. It was ok. 1st thing this morning we didn't have any heat - out of propane!! They aren't sure how that happened, but by this afternoon we had heat again....but then my co-worker never turned the radio back on (she's in charge...) & it was much too quiet in the office, but I survived!
Now I'm home, furnace cranked up, Northern Pine candle going, HMM Christmas on tv...and so glad it's not Monday!!!
Everyone, have a great evening!!!!
Glad you survived your day!
Hope you have a great Thursday!
Thanks so much...hopefully in a couple of more days I will be back on track!
Congrats...so exciting!!
Enjoy every moment! I'm sure everything will be beautiful
that is so cool ! Wonderful memoriesGood Thursday morning, Christmas friends!

Hey Everyone! I haven't been around too much on this forum the last couple of seasons, but I hope I'm still welcome. I feel like I should post at least once before the 2018 season gets wished away completely.
I'm at that point where the days feel really weird and off now that the holidays are over. I swear, early January is always the toughest. Always. And just when you think you've finally got a hold of it, it still doesn't get any easier. I can't help it. Months go by, from as far back as mid-August, where you can rely on it being "the season" (or at least rely on knowing what's ahead). And then come early January, it just isn't there anymore. It really does take getting used to and having to re-learn what life is like without it. I even have to remind myself throughout the day that it's okay for it not to be the holidays. Admittedly, it's the only time of year where I feel truly alone. Everyone seems to have completely moved on from it, everyone seems like they've been completely moved on from it. Yet here I am, still feeling like it's within my grasp and trying to hold onto it, being that it was here just a few days ago.
I know we can all drum up the 12 Days excuse to keep it going. I know it's nice to see who keeps up their decorations in the neighborhood the longest. You can even stretch it as far as Candlemas if you so choose. Everyone's always suggesting to keep it going in your own way throughout the year. We all have our own little ways. And I do all of those things, with different factors each year kind of determining just how much.
But for me, it's that stark shift from January 1st to January 2nd that is always the definitive moment where it's no longer the season, and where the reality of it being over sets in.
By the middle of the month all of these emotions will have passed. I'll even laugh at myself over it. But like I said, it just amazes me each year that it never does get any easier.
Anyways, I have some things coming up in my life that are going to bring about some major changes. I want to thank everyone here for letting me be a part of this forum. This is the only place that I'm able to fully express my love for the holidays. As well as my missing it when it's over. And the only place where I know that the people I'm telling it to also understand it. So thank you all for that.
Happy New Year Everyone!

Afternoon MMC. Its back to school here today for the kiddos. Its been a rather dreary day outside with just a few random snow showers. We are still enjoying all our Christmas decor and no plans of putting anything away yet. Hope everyone has a great day.
