[sugar142286]

Good evening,

A long day at work, it was nonstop cleaning up from the weekend. Day off tomorrow, which means a haircut for me.

Have a good night!

Enjoy your day off tomorrow!

Had a nice day doing some shopping in Port Huron today.
Went to a Hobby Lobby and now know what you are all talking about. They had a huge corner full of everything Christmas.
My son wanted to go to Big Boy for lunch, so we did. I did not really like it to much, way to greasy for me. My son however loved it!
Went to JC Penny, Khols, Target and Walmart with my daughter looking for some new clothes for her.
On the way home we got to watch these for awhile...

Good evening again Christmas family !!

I don't know where to ask this question exactly so I will ask here. I am sorry if it is in the wrong spot.......Has anyone ever had trouble viewing videos from Youtube ?? I am not having any trouble at all on the Youtube site itself, just if I try to view videos FROM Youtube.......What happens is when I start to play one......the center of the screen goes totally white. I can still here the music but just a white screen.

I have noticed that if I right click while the video is playing the settings for Adobe flash come up and I can see the picture then. As soon as I close the settings the screen is white again....I am stumped !!

I have followed the steps on the Adobe site and adjusted the settings and even uninstailled it and reinstalled it. Still no picture. I don't understand. I used to watch the videos from there just fine. At least I can still go right to Youtube and watch them......

Okay !! Thanks everyone.

Have a wonderful Christmassy, stockings by the fire, Winter Wonderland evening !!

(((((Hugs))))))) for everyone ESPECIALLY:

I just got back from a city council meeting. My house is two blocks from the school my kids attend. When I pulled into my driveway, I saw bathed in the glow of football field lights! I turned my A/C up and pretended it was fall football season! cheesy

It's coming soon to a field near you!

 

[ballcoach]

Made, have fun! Be careful. A friend down the street caught a rattlesnake...yes, I said rattlesnake.....which we have never had in these parts.

Welcome back, Catecea....

99 days...isn't there a song about 99 and beer....maybe we should sing that song to pass the time over the next 99 days...

 

[Solice]

I hope you feel better <3

Thank you! =]

Good Afternoon/Evening Solice!!
Yes, it's excellent & super cute!! Hallmark movie, but I wrote down the title wrong. It's Mistletoe Over Manhattan! (sorry!) Hope you still found it.
Hope you're feeling better soon, friend! Sending hugs!! xo

Thank you! I found it!! =]

Good evening, Solice !! Hope you have a wonderful Christmassy evening as well !! xo

Than you! =]

Note to self-
1) Don't bring a lawyer camping unless your out of cell phone range.
2) It doesn't do any good to bring your tablet if you forget the charger. (At least you can get on the lawyers laptop while he's on the phone.)
3) Next time check and make sure all of the tent stakes are in the bag with the tent and not in your countdown to christmas sign's box.

I'm having fun so far. We are the only one's here so we get the only campsite with shade. This place sure has changed since I was here in the early 90's.
I'm off to cook dinner now. If I can get my lawyer friend off of his laptop for a few minutes again later I'll check back in again.

Hahaha... You are so funny! Sound like so much fun Made! Enjoy!! =]

Hoping you feel better !! xo

Thank you! =]

The very first day on my new job and it was pretty good !! When I first got on this morning, there was no work but after about an hour or so there was and it was fine.

My Wish had a WONDERFUL 16th birthday......Thank you for all your good wishes xoxo

Glad to hear that your first day at work was GOOD!
And Happy belated Birthday to Wish! =]

A very happy birthday to your dear mother xo There is NOTHING like having family around.....I hope you have a fantastic day and that you also feel better xoxo

Good morning everybody

@Solice: I just saw that you are from Norway. How cool ist that? One day I would like to travel to Norway. I also have some friends who are living there. Hope I will get better soon and I wish you and your family (especially your mother) a wonderful day!

@Holiday: Yesterday the temperature were around 68° degree fahrenheit. I felt like it was really cold because on my holiday I had temperature were around 90° to 104° degree fahrenheit. Today its back to mid 70° degree, which is normal for Switzerland.

@caninemom3:I wish you all the best for your new job.

Actually the whole "christmas in july" - action is pretty new to me. I was amazed seeing all those christmas decorations in the shops and the christmas movies on Hallmark during my holiday. We don't have anything similar here. It is cool, unfortunately I didn't had enough space in my luggage to bring some christmas decorations back home. I bough to much clothes and shoes and books.

Thank you all for your very nice welcome back.

Good Morning, Friends of the holidays in general and the Season in particular.

What season, you ask?

Well......
If you have to ask that question, you are in the wrong place.

But what is in just the right place?
This:
Days to the Season: 98
Days to Christmas Day: 140

Looks like it's time to check on the proximity of our next Milestone.
Well -- it's number 13 on our handy-dandy post one chart.
It's the THREE QUARTER Season mark.
And -- can it be?? -- YES!
It's just 7 days away!!
(Incredible - just incredible.)

A bit of rain yesterday evening cooled things off a bit.
We show 74 degrees here this morning.

You have a Terrific Tuesday Today, OK?

Hi All!

I'm back! Around this time, last week, I was in Grand Rapids, Michigan cheering on (or competing against) my fellow transplant recipients. I had a blast!! I won a bronze medal in the 1500m racewalk in my age group!!


Also in the news? I GOT A DOG!!! I got her last Friday!!! Her name is Missy, she's a Cairn Terrier/Mix, she turns 2 in October, and we're still trying to find our rhythm together. She's a cutie!!

Here are some pics from Grand Rapids AND of my dog. Enjoy!!

Hae Young (Team Maryland-silver), Debra (Team Ohio-gold), and ME (Team Florida-bronze)

I look like I'm advertising Gatorade or something--haha!

Missy and me


How are you all doing? Hugs!

I know what your problem is....you are so far in to Christmas already that you see nothing but snow everywhere!!!
So carefully back away and come back to summer again and it will all become clear again.

What?? I'm so jealous! I would love to see some Christmas stuff!!! =]
Thanks for sharing the photo. Love it! =]

I forgot my camera yesterday and could not turn on my phone or else I would have a mega bill for roaming charges!
When I walked in to the store there was this 12 foot tall Christmas tree front and center covered in fall decorations, looked beautiful!
this is what I did pick up there....

used to paint different decorations with the kids when they were small and then date the back. When I saw these just had to get 4 of them and do it again with them for Christmas this year.

Made, have fun! Be careful. A friend down the street caught a rattlesnake...yes, I said rattlesnake.....which we have never had in these parts.

LOL!!!! I told Christmas a Holic that's why I was going camping. I wanted to find the timber rattlers and mountain lions that people have been seeing down here in southern Indiana.

 

[made582]

made- did your mom find out anything about the job yet?

She said the interview went well but they had 2 more people they were going to talk to before making their decision.

 

[made582]

Good Morning MMC!!!!! It was beautiful out last night. It got down into the low 60's which was perfect. Sitting around a citronella candle instead of a campfire just wasn't the same though. Today we are heading into the woods to hike an 8 mile part of the knobstone trail. I wish I would have brought my camera. There is one part of the trail that takes you to the top of a hill that overlooks all of the countryside. It's beautiful. We use to stop there and eat lunch when we were in scouts. Well I'm off. I'll try to check back in later if I have any energy left. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!



Seawaters- Good Luck at the doctor today!!!!

I finally decided which Notebook I am going to buy. I am so happy. My old Notebook (and I am talking real old, like 8 to 10 years old), is moving soooo slow I regularly fall asleep waiting for a programm to open.

I am sitting in my office right now and I am bored to death. Because we still have summer holidays, a lot of our customer are on holidays and we don't have a lot of work. I can't take a day off, because I used all of my holidays already.
