Christmas Countdown - 2011

[ChristmasHeart]

Well...we are nearing the end of another day! That just means its one day closer to the Season (although the Season never really ends for me :lol!

Gonna try to get to bed early tonight so that I can go for my run in the morning. My ankle is feeling much better this evening - so it all looks like its a go!

I am training for my first 10K run on August 27th!

I am happy to be able to come to a place (MMC) where its Christmas all the time! It just makes my heart happy!

Have a merry evening, everyone...and have sweet dreams about Christmas!!!

You beat me to it, Xmas. I just got in from Walmart. I bought that one and the Phyllis Hoffman Celebrate Fall edition. I haven't had a chance to look at them. I bought them based on the cover!

Good afternoon!


Thought I would pop in really quickly and let you all know I saw my first Christmas magazine of 2011! It was Paula Deen's Holiday Baking. It's getting closer! woohoo! Stll waiting on the new cord, I can't wait to be back full time.

Have a good one!

We miss you Gabulldawg and Xmas365!

 

[Seawaters]

It was good hearing from you. Hurry back soon!

Well I got to unplug now, I was able to catch up a little. That is really cool news about the MMC Cookbook. I will see what I can contribute to it. I will be on again when I can, I miss you all.
Talk to you soon


:hi:

Good late afternoon, everyone. It is still hot here in northern California, but what else is new? The dentist put on my new crown after he took out the temporary filling. Then he filled a cavity. He decided to do this without novocaine! I was ready to come unglued!!! I guess I will find another dentist. Then he told me my yearly insurance "allowance" was used up so I owed him $279 for filling a cavity that he did not ask me if he could! Hubby and I will be leaving soon for the Elks Lodge for a taco dinner. Then it will be back home to watch the tube! Have a great evening!

Move out here and get a GOOD dentist! Mine is the best. You deserve to be treated right.

Sorry to hear that. They sure don't have good dental insurance anywhere and it's such an important part of your health.

Last night my friend Chris died. I'm still in shock over this and feel so heart-broken for his wife and dogs.

I know I'm a little late on this, but I hope you and his family are doing well. My thoughts are with you.

now my mother in law has just been diagnosed with cancer. as you can imagine my poor hubby is worried sick, we won't know exactly how serious it is until next week when she has further tests, but please god she'll get through this.

What horrible news! My thoughts are with you as well, and I hope she pulls through. I know she will.

The deal is signed and football Is back!!!!!!!!!!

Thank GOODNESS!!! I don't know if I could've gone an entire season without pro football. Now Travis and I get to go to a Giants/Jets game together...both of our first pro football experiences! It should be great since the Jets are his favorite team and the Giants are my second fav...and they are both technically the "home" team...sooo excited!

Now......not so good news. Wish had another episode yesterday.

Louann, I hope Wish gets better soon. *hugs*

Hehe. Im at work and I have Christmas Vacation playing on my ipod. Hidden of course!! AWESOME!

Best Christmas movie ever!! <3

Hi all!

I've been gone a while, but mainly because it seemed all H-E-double hockey sticks broke loose last week. Other than dealing with intense drama with my best friend's wedding coming up, I also suffered a concussion at Kohl's last Friday when I was helping with the truck, so I have been seeking treatment all week long. Thankfully I'm doing better now and I hope it stays that way.

I've got a very long weekend ahead...work, doctor's appointment, a charity event and a birthday party tomorrow; sushi and an overnight shift Saturday-Sunday, then another overnight shift Sunday-Monday. This is probably the only time I will ever say that I can't wait until Monday!

Anyone else watch Project Runway? The 9th season premiered tonight and I missed the first half since I worked at Hallmark, but I loved what I saw! I guess I'll watch the first part On Demand at some point.

Have a good night, everyone!

Too bad no QVC this weekend.....

Gonna be pretty boring!

 

[Billy Battles]

I think this maybe my first post in a Christmas countdown. I feel like I never can keep up with whats going on so I never posted. So here we go.

 

[ballcoach]

You don't have to keep up, Billy....

 

[Meceka]

Seawaters: Your dentist needs to be fired! You could come out here, too, my sister is the office manager of a large dental org. and she would make sure you had the best care!

vsuclaribnl: Oh my goodness - I am sorry you received a concussion while working - that really stinks! Hope you are 100 percent better soon!!

xmas365: I'm glad you are able to post yet - we miss you!

Billy Battles: Welcome to the countdown!

Good morning, MMC!

Overcast day right now - rained overnight and way into the morning. I do believe the trees and plants look happy cheesy

Bo woke me up at 1:44 - thunder was rumbling off in the distance. I mean way off, too! The utility room light was put on for him and he went to sleep, snoring louder than a buzz saw. I stayed awake until around 4.

Supposedly going shopping and having lunch - will see if the plans are still going. I didn't receive an e-mail confirmation like I was supposed to, but she is notoriously bad at remembering to send those. If I don't go, I am going to work on my Christmas notebook and listen to Christmas music. Gee, I can't lose today!!!!

Have a great day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
