Oh well. No snow for me next weekend. That's ok. As long as I'm in the mountains!

I'm praying for your mom!
Good morning, Christmas family. It is a little chilly and damp here in northern California. My long-term sub is coming to my classroom after school today so I can show her where everything is and give her tips on classroom behavior. I was able to get everything copied except for the weekly assessments. I had them copied, but the other teachers decided that that was too much copying and opted for shorter tests. Oh, well, it's only time!!! I am also going to call my (previous) plastic surgeon and set up an appointment for the INT. I hope you all have a great first-of-the-week.
Ballcoach, you never did tell us your personal countdown (unless I missed it!!!). I think it has something to do with Halloween, if I remember correctly.

Well I made it to lunch time! So far this has not been a bad Monday at all though. It was hard to get up this morning because it was so warm under the covers! We are eating subway take out at work today and I ordered a philly cheese steak and am waiting for it to get here. It was 23F when I got here at work this morning but it has warmed up already to 45F high today should be 59F and 40 % chance of rain tomorrow with highs back in the 60's. So I am willing to bet this last little cold shot will be it for this winter..Bring on 2012 fall/winter it has to be better than this past one! have a good midday everyone!
Find my day totally changed, now I am in London waiting for friend to finish doc appointment. Glad I can hang out here.

Good morning, MMC!
I hope this finds everyone well!
A sunny day is on tap for mid-Michigan, but it is still very cold out. The outdoor cats are sunning themselves on the vehicles when they aren't chasing each other up and down the black walnut trees - they are so funny to watch when they are playing! There have been numerous sightings of robins in the area - I usually don't see my first one until the middle of March, so I do believe a very early spring is here.
Today I am organizing and cleaning - which is a code for hunting for that one particular piece of glass I need for the store :grin:
Have a most MERRY Monday!!!

I hope you feel better soon, dear friend xoxo I HATE colds !! Congratulations again to your son. I am sure he will do very well. xo
I know what you mean, Made !! I feel like I am hardly ever on site any more but once I get my laptop back (at the end of the month) I am hoping to be here more !! Praying for your little niece and your mother's job hunting luck xo
That sounds wonderful !! And so wise in order to avoid the crowds !! Hugs to you and your girlfriend and of course sweet Lily xo
I am so sorry your mother has to go through this. I am praying for her as well. Nobody should ever have to deal with cancer let alone twice. I think you said she was having a PEP scan....could that be a PET scan ?? I am a transcriptionist and I don't know what a PEP scan is, however, a PET scan stands for positron emission tomography. Whatever she is having, I hope it is NEGATIVE....(((Hugs)))))
Good afternoon dear Christmas family
Today is my Monday like most people. Since they switched my schedule I am a Monday through Friday person like most. I miss my Sunday through Thursday schedule and I think I am going to ask them how long this Monday through Friday thing will continue. I don't want to upset them as this is such an AMAZING company to work for but Good Friday is a day I usually attend church services in honor of our Lord's suffering and if I am working that day I will not get to "be" with Him that day (at least that is how I look at it).
I am so, so afraid we are going to owe big time on taxes this year. I wish I knew the calculation to figure out if we are going to owe. I am the STUPIDEST person on earth when it comes to math.
Jennifer - How is your mother ?? Praying she will be back to herself soon.
Sugar - I hope that ear infection feels better soon, what a yucky thing. You poor thing. It just seems like one thing after the other.
Lauriebear- Your hiking trip sounds like it was wonderful. There is nothing like appreciating nature.
Snowflake - How are you ? and how is my little "niece" Harlowe doing ?? Clancy, Wishbone, Ivy, Hermione, Smokey and Lily send their love xo
Meceka - (((Hugs)))) to you too my dear friend and hugs to Palmer and Mouse and Bo and all the outdoor babies xo
CAH and SIT another BIG congratulations on your son !! He sounds like an amazing young man !! xo
Binger - Isn't about time for another opera soon !!??? Nobody writes an opera like you !! xo
You all should see my baby. My Hermione is now nearly 20 pounds and not yet three months old. She is looking like a Bloodhound more and more every day rather than Golden Retriever. Still working on potty training of course and working on teaching not to be so mouthy/nippy. She seems to have melted everyone' s hearts here. Even Ivy, our Chihuahua who is a bit of a bossy personality, has sort of taken Hermione under her wing. Smokey and Lily, our two kitties, just kind of look at Hermione as if to say "What are you and why are you so wiggly ?" Neither of them had ever seen a puppy before Hermione.
I hope everyone has a good day and are feeling well or better soon.
Seawaters - I have your "something special" for you if only I could get to the post office to mail it !! xoxo
(((((HUGS))))))) everyone from me, Clancy, Ivy, Wishbone, Hermione, Smokey, and Lily and also to Ella, Snickers, Harlowe, Snowball, Gomez, Penny, Chico, Daisy, Scooby, Sasha, and all furkids and even non-furkid animals who are out there xoxo

You both must be beaming w/ pride! Best wishes to him in his new endeavor, hope he loves it!
:sparkle:
My mom is FINALLY back to her regular self! Thank you for keeping her in your thoughts and prayers! Apparently whatever was in her system just needed some time to get out!
Good afternoon, everyone!
Seems that I missed yesterday's milestone! I meant to chime in, but I somehow became overcome with a few other things. Too bad. Looks like I missed a good time. A Milestone is always a good time. I can't wait for the next one! Only 15 more days until 300 days until Christmas Day! Hooray!
The weekend was a nice and relaxing one for me. Something that myself and bank account needed. Kim and I stayed in on Friday night. Saturday morning, I went to the gym for a couple hours and worked out with a few people I haven't seen in a couple of months. It was fun! Saturday night, we went to the movies. I unknowingly agreed to go see "The Vow" with her a couple weeks ago, so we saw that. I have a tendency to enjoy most movies for what they are worth... and The Vow wasn't half bad. There were some funny parts. Of course, Rachel McAdams always helps, too!
Kim and I were suppose to go skating yesterday, but it was about -24c with windchill. Kim voted against the decision. Hopefully we can go next weekend. Instead, I was able to complete some homework and relax once again. Oh, and make some delicious ribs for dinner. I had to go easy on the eating of the ribs though, thanks to a flag football game last night. We had our first win of the season, too! Finally!
I guess it really was a relaxing but busy weekend. Fun times! I hope you all enjoyed yourselves, too. I have some posts to get caught up with! Have a wonderful Monday! We're really closing in. It's already the 7th week of the year. Only 45 remain!

I'm dreading them as well. We will probably owe in too, the question is how much?!

Sounds like you really enjoyed that stop at Wal-Mart, Brad! What a wonderful morning!!
All the best to your mom!!
Happy Monday!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope you all have a fantastic day!!!!!!

For once I'm glad it's Monday. I was out of work sick again on Thursday and Friday, and I was getting a little sick of being stuck at home. At least I can watch the patients go by my desk here, and get a little change of scenery. I hope everyone else is staying well; there seem to be a lot of colds and stomach virus going around right now. Hopefully with the colder weather yesterday and today, some of those germs will die off.
Have a great Monday, and hopefully everyone will stay well.

Having lived as one of us, He understands having to work for a living.He knows where your heart is ... that's where He'll find you.
For the work you do at home, do they withhold taxes? If not, maybe you should pay quarterly taxes to avoid getting hit big-time in April. Mr. does some freelance work, and I keep track of what comes in and pay quarterly federal and state taxes if he gets a significant amount of freelance work in a particular quarter. Our"tax lady" gave us the percentage number.
So glad to hear that---it's so awful when something's wrong and you can't find a way to "fix" it. I'm glad it went away on its own.
