I’ll give it a try this year. I can’t guarantee that it’ll be any good, but I feel it will be a good thing for me to do, especially after reading all the past special posts. I’ll take Nov 8th (Day 5 before the season)

I look forward to reading it.

I'd love to help with the Special Post again this year. I've been idle for a few years. If there is an open date and you need me, I'm ready to go, Crown!

Two days left, Brent. Nov. 10 and 11. Which would you like?

Good evening everyone! I hope you're doing well.
I had a myelogram last Friday which lead to a massive headache Saturday, felt a lot better Sunday, then the headache returned with vengeance on Monday. So today I ended up back at the hospital for blood patch. My headache is gone but now my back is killing me. I just can't win.

Hopefully in the morning all will be well again. Have a blessed night and I'll see you all tomorrow.

Happy Halloween Eve MMC! I can't believe it will be tomorrow. I am really enjoying these Halloween lights out there. Our neighborhood seems more lit up this year than usual for Halloween. Have a great Halloween Eve!

Let's hope you regain strength soon - are you having trouble with your spine?

Get better - Christmas is coming.

A jolly good morning to you

Happy Pines/Halloween Eve/Wednesday

I slept from about 2:20 to 4:35 without waking up - funny dream - I was sorting Elton John concert goers into piles - sections; I have no idea if all of the people I was messing with were actually at the concert.

The audience turned out to be gathered for a Christmas concert instead of Elton and Boston Pops were getting ready on the stage before the darn cat woke me up.

Stay jolly

Merry Monday!

My brother ate an entire peanut butter and jelly sandwich on Saturday! The nurse said his mood had improved and he was quite talkative on Sunday. It has been an up and down time for him, so hopefully there will be more ups than downs now! Thank you for all the thoughts and prayers for him ~ he really appreciates them as do I. xx

Wonderful news!

Merry Tuesday!

It so does not feel like a Tuesday so I'm thinking thinking that this is going to be a really long week!

In good news, my brother's bone scan came back negative and he ate even more PB & J sandwiches yesterday.

Great news!!

Thank you to all for the continued prayers and positive thoughts.
My mother in law is slowly improving. She is still in the hospital, but they seem to have the infection under control.
My father in law is struggling with his back, but he is being able to manage the pain currently. He has an appointment in a little over a week to see if they can put cushions between his broken vertebra to reduce the pain and pressure on his spine.
My wife is still making a lot of trips back and forth, but she has been able to go back to work this week and just make trips in the evening.

Thanks again to all!

Glad to hear that your MIL is improving, and hopefully your FIL can get some relief soon. Sending more prayers.

Good Wednesday morning, Christmas friends!

Wow, did it rain yesterday! In the middle of a blinding rain, Elizabeth called me to say that she thought her car was acting up. When she got to her apartment I had to get her to text me pictures of the gauges on her dash to determine that the car was ok LOL. Both of my kids are ROUGH on their vehicles!

We went to mom's for taco soup last night, and it was as awesome as ever.

I hope y'all have a great day!

Happy Halloween Eve!! My kids are off today due to parent/teacher conferences. Tonight we are hosting a pasta party for the girls soccer team, even though my daughter hasn't been playing and tomorrow is Senior night so we will have to walk out on the field with her.
Hope you all have a great day!
