Good Morning Everyone!!!!!!! It is going to be a hot and humid one here in central Indy with some rain showers expected this evening. Perfect for an outside wedding. Is it wrong that I am hoping for the rain to start earlier so my cousin has to move her wedding inside where there is A/C? I have a few errands to run before I get ready for the wedding so I really need to get moving. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Gotta head out of town for a day....be back tomorrow!

Why don't yall have a great Saturday? See ya tomorrow, friends!
 
Good Morning, Weekend Friends and Christmas Comrades In Arms.

Whew! Another week down and another week closer to Christmas Season 2011.

To see how close, consider:
Days to the Season: 162
Days to Christmas Day: 204
Scarcely over half a week off now from the 200-day Christmas Window!
Wow. Nearly to double-100's, Guys!

Calm, sunny and absolutely beautiful here this morning.
The temp was a crisp 61 when my father and I took the dog for a walk and is still barely 70 as I type this.
The heat is predicted to return with a vengence tomorrow, however.

Well, enjoy your weekend and have a Sensational Saturday, Everyone!
 
I was thinking the same thing, Christmasstar! But it does sound like fun, Laney!

We had to redo a bathroom once, the mess is a pain, but so worth it when it is all done!

Good morning, Christmas friends. It is raining here in northern California. As I said last night, I have lost my voice, so if you find it, please send it back. That is why this email probably whispers!!! We have the heat on in the house on June 4. I have NEVER done this since I moved here in 1969!!! I am going to try to get some rest. It really hurts my back when I cough, so I might just as well give in and go to the doctor! Have a great day, everyone!

Don't worry, the reception is inside so the cake should be okay!!!!!! They are just having the ceremony outside.
 
A gorgeous day out today, sunny, warm, not too hot ... I think a visit to the local Dairy Queen might be in order ...

After that, we'll head over to a local carnival for the evening. It is going to be a hot one outside today, though, so I'm not sure how long we'll stay. If we can make it in the heat, there is a fireworks show at 10pm. We'll see about that!

Oh, boy, do I miss the carnivals this time of year! Where I grew up, each community had a volunteer fire company, and each one hosted a carnival for week to raise money. Our town always had theirs the week of July Fourth, which is my birthday, so I have really fond memories of walking down to the carnival grounds every night in the week to enjoy the rides and games and food and fireworks.

Been out for an early morning walk already, about time I got back into that habit. My tail bone is not happy about it, I figured it was all healed up but after that brisk walk it is throbbing again.:-?

THANKS for posting this! We've been to Hawaii a couple times visiting a friend of ours, and we've wondered what Christmas looks like there---now we know!

Well I am off to my aunt's house and then to the wedding. We have a poll going on how long before the first person starts dancing on the tables at the reception. It took 2 hours at her sisters wedding but I am going for an hour and a half this time. I'll check back in tonight to tell you if I won or not.
 
LOL - Thanks Merry!!

Made - have fun! Maybe you can be the first to start table dancing this year, lol!

Don't forget to post pho...uh...never mind.

Made, don't have that seventh white russian with almond milk, stay away from lamp shades, and for the love of all that's holy don't dance with the chick that catches the bride's bouquet...unless she's really cute after that seventh white russian.

Reminds me of a radio joke. Two antennae got married. The wedding was so so but the reception was great!
 
Good afternoon!

I hope everyone is having a great day!!!!!

Progressing great on my to-do list, but it is so hot and humid out I am thinking of bailing on going to the movies. I think I might just stay home and take a nap. Better yet, I'll watch a Christmas movie cheesy

Made - enjoy the wedding!
RJD - re: antennae joke :lol:
Seawaters - I hope you are feeling better soon and your voice comes back!
CAH - I'd go with the 7 ft. tree, too!

Have a great afternoon!!!

When I looked up Beatle history I saw that too but didn't know that's what you were talking about.

Ringo was a bit upset during that time because he was temporarily replaced by Jimmy Nicholl. He thought the rest of the band was going to replace him permanently. Poor Ringo!

ugh, i don't like ringo. we share relatives (although he and i are not blood related) and he has definitely forgotten where he came from!
