Brad,
Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed YOUR birthday posts. I also loved what Made wrote about your gift, with only a minor investment needed from you! Glad you had a great one. Can't wait to see the cake.

The bad part is that I had actually just gotten that call. It makes you wonder how many people actually fall for that kind of stuff.

I just realized I eclipsed the 4000 post mark, wow, I didn't think I would ever gat that far.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love it when it starts cool and stays cool.cheesy

I just got back from Michael's and I have to say that they didn't have much of anything at mine. They had a few of the felt stocking kits and some Christmas stickers and that was it. They had a lot of boxes sitting around though that are hopefully full of more Christmas stuff.

I've gotten a similar call, and a couple emails. I guess some folks actually think it's legit.:sad:

Good Morning Everyone!!!!!! It is going to be a hot day here in central Indy but it will feel mild compared to what is headed here for next week. I am getting ready to run some errands and while I am out I plan on stopping by michaels. I almost forgot that the hallmark ornament preview is this weekend. I will have to head there tomorrow. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If we lived closer we would probably run into each other.. Im going to Micheals soon and of course Hallmark tomorrow! I just read about your Michaels not having much. Im hoping mine has gotten some more stuff out from last week!

Good morning, Christmas friends. It will be hot again today, and I have lots to do to get ready for our semi-vacation. Hubby has to attends lots of Elks meetings; I probably should, but I will sky out as much as possible! I tried the new pain-control patch last night. It works great, but there is a downside. You can only wear it for 12 hours, then it's 12 hours off. It works about eight hours. Even with that, I did not sleep well; so I spent my time finishing a book and reading some teacher material. I guess it will be nap time this afternoon (but don't tell Crown). I will pop in off and on today. If we hit any posting milestones, I will take care of the "prizes" when I am on a computer. If I don't have access, I will take of prizes when I get home. Who knows? I might pick up some valuable stuff in Phoenix!!!

Have a good time in Phoenix!

TGIF! Good Friday morning, my Christmas friends!

My family took me out to eat for my birthday last night, and it was wonderful. There's a little Italian place in a neighboring town that I love, and I thought we were going there, but we went to Olive Garden. The lasagna was great!

My daughter (with the only minor assistance of my mother-in-law) baked me a wonderful birthday cake, and wrote "Happy 47th Birthday, Daddy" in the icing, and drew a picture of the Enterprise from Star Trek. She's so talented at 10! I'll post a pic soon. Try not to be too jealous, Christmasstar!

I think Nancy and I are going out on a date tonight, so I'm looking forward to that. I hope ya'll have a great day! cheesy

Glad you had such a nice Birthday!

Happy Friday! About to leave to check out Michaels :dance:

I hope they have some new stuff out. I also got an email from Michaels also for their Christmas in July sale next week with coupons attached! Got another email from Target this morning that they are having a Black Friday sale today! Check it out guys. I got my 2 year old a toy that was $60 for $30 even with paying $8 shipping I still saved $20! Have a nice Friday evening and wonderful weekend Christmas friends!

I just had some good news...I've been working extra hours to cover for one of the other girls who is out sick, and the boss asked me if I wanted to make it permanent. Yay! More hours = more cash=easier to pay bills and buy Christmas things!

Oh Seawaters.....You are so brave. I can only imagine the pain you have. Thank you for always being so sunny. I am not sunny like that at all. When I am in pain EVERYONE knows it......A true whiner !! xo I really hope you feel better.........xo

Congratulations Snow In Tesxas !!!!!! That is GREAT !!!

Good evening,


My wife did such a beautiful job planting flowers and making the yard look nice, my aunt who lost her house in the tornado gave us a bunch of her flowers to replant here, I am so proud of her, since neither one of us have a green thumb. No new news to report on mom in law or my wifes
grandmother.

Have a good night Christmas buddies!

Xmas you are another one who touches my heart with the very obvious love you have for your wife and family. Continuing to pray for your mother-in-law all your family xo

I just got an email from Michaels for 25% off entire order for Christmas in July. It's good starting next week.

On facebook I "like" Black Friday and it was the first ad they posted since Black Friday ended in 2010. It was for Target. I am so excited! We have so much fun on that day!

 

[Holiday]

I love it when it starts cool and stays cool.cheesy

I will get there too, but for now I'm still enjoying longer days & sunshine!!! It was SUCH a long winter!!! :smile:

Hey everyone... it's been a while since I was on here... had a few extra minutes so I wanted to stop in a say HI!!!!

Hey Minta! Glad to see you! :sparkle:

 

[MsChristmas]

My local Michaels had quite a few empty shelves and lots of boxes labeled "Fall" laying around so I cant wait until next Friday when I can see what else new they have Holiday related. They had a few more things then last week and I know its going to get better each week! Ho ho ho!

 

[kerstig]

Is any one else watching the tour de France? It's pretty big here!

 

[MerryCarey]

Holiday, I'm with you ... don't take away my sunshine and warmth too soon! On top of which, I was turning blue from the air conditioning at the office earlier today ...

I guess you are right! There's always the weaker members of society being fooled! Only last week I was cleaning for an old lady and she hardly dared to let me in, cause only a week before someone came in pretending to be an employee from the bank, asking her for her for her card and pincode. I think it's outragious these kind of people are being scammed!

I just had some good news...I've been working extra hours to cover for one of the other girls who is out sick, and the boss asked me if I wanted to make it permanent. Yay! More hours = more cash=easier to pay bills and buy Christmas things!

Yay! congrats!

Good to hear from you and hi

Hope the date was great! That cake sounds great! I am looking forward to the picture! Which star trek series did you like the best ?

Hope every one has a great day!

Wish Has Another Episode

Good afternoon Christmas family...........


Wish has come down with aother episode.......He knows where he is.......he just can't stand up.........His head is kind of moving odd too. He kind of looks like an odd bobble head......only not as "bobbly" just kind of weird............I was in hopes he would never had another episode. Like I said.......he knows me, knows where he is, I just don't get it. He is laying here cleaning his arms..........


Please continue to pray for my furchild..........xoxoxoxoxo:sad:


Thanks Christmas family.......love you all xo
