Christmas Countdown - 2012

[VictoriaLT]

Wow! What a great occasion! Congratulations on your marriage!

Best wishes! And don't worry about the unemployment. It is just a temporary problem. Especially knowing that you have just marriaged and Christmas is coming you have more time to enjoy yourself.

Hello all!

Wow, it has been quite some time since I made an appearance on this site! Needless to say, I have been very very busy!

The Good: I GOT MARRIED! 11 DAYS AGO TO BE EXACT!

It was a great day...not without its drama (photographer...ugh!), but still amazing!

The Bad: I am currently unemployed.

I'm not sure if I mentioned this here the last time I posted (I can't even remember when that was!) but I voluntarily left Hallmark as I started getting a lot more hours at Kohl's. Then in June, Kohl's decided to let me and a friend (also a supervisor) go due to an absolutely absurd reason, which we are both still fighting. Long story short, neither of us were allowed to collect unemployment and it is a long, drawn out, awful mess.

Other than that, life has been good and is starting to settle back down...and I can finally look forward to CHRISTMAS!!! Hope you all are doing well and I can't wait to be back and more active on this lovely site!!!

Congratulations on your marriage!!!!!

Sorry to hear your having a bad time employment wise, hope you manage to get it sorted x

Good morning all,

Had to get up early to drop my wife off at work and the boys at daycare. Clean up is nearly done. Making beef stew in the crock pot for dinner, I love when it gets cooler, get to have more comfort foods now.

Enjoy your day.

MMMM... I love comfort foods this has me wanting to do a nice hardy homemade mac & cheese - hey I need to pull out that receipe you gave us last year on the slow cooker chicken that was the best ever

Happy October to all! I'm really glad I can come here and read all of the happy posts about good stuff! It seems that the morning news always makes me depressed because it's just about a bunch of bad stuff. This is a happy place so Thank You everyone!

I know I love the good vibes I get loggin in here Happy October to you FM

Seawaters, how are you feeling these days? I am so happy that you are on here more! Now I just need to stay on here more often!

me too CAH!!!!

I plan to go shopping in Chico with a friend. We are going to the new scrapbook store. The highs today are supposed to be 101!!!

Whew 101, hot babe hot and I wasn't speaking of the weather tee hee LOL

Oh boy! I want to click on that! A strange place sounds like fun!

Yes I like strange as well must click.....

Yeah, we had that a lot over the summer. Right now, it's 64 degrees, and we're having lovely Autumn-gray skies. I'm so glad it's finally cooler!

We had an odd summer, one day super hot the next nice, another cool, one month no rain next month all it did (at least it felt that way) was rain, I know a lot of places were hurting for the rain, but really weird weather. Yesterday felt awesome 72 sunny today a little humid it started to rain. Maybe NYC will get snow this year.

You should open up a bakery. With all your cake decorating talent I bet it would be a hit!

Oh yeah I agree with that!!!!

Hi guys what time is it clear to with you guys,, it's starts getting dark ay about 7 and by 8 it's dark. And in the morning it's till drk at 7.30

It starts getting dark around 6:45 and the sun comes up around 6:15 or so... Soon we will do daylight savings I think that is the 1st weekend in November.

And Saturday nights for the skillett.

LOL I am not sure hwat made me laugh harder CAH or you!!! Loe it

Nice to see you !! I love Michael Buble !!!

You too CM3, good to see you and I love your falling leaves picture how cool!!! Ahhh, Michael I just love to listen to that man sing!

Because of all the talk about him, I suddenly feel like listening to Michael Buble' Christmas CD!

Love that guy!

Oh thank you I forgot about this one... Awesome to see it again, does anyone know if he is having his Special this year again????

Good evening MMC community!

I hope you all had a successful and great day. My day was pretty hard. It seems that every Tuesday is going to be the hardest day of the week. At least in semester one. I have two lectures and a seminar on that day. After first lecture and a seminar I'm always exhausted. Staying focused for four (oh well, for three and a half maybe) hours isn't very easy thing. Although I enjoy my lectures, I always feel pretty tired after them in the end of every Tuesday.

I also bought a lot of paper sheets today for making index cards for learning English words. I suppose a lot of work is waiting for me this weekend.

I'm now having a cup of tea (like every evening) and listening for ''Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reinder'' by Gene Autry for many times already. It's stucked in my mind from the early morning and I've been croonning and singing the song all day.

Have a cozy and warm evening everyone!

You too VLT have a good evening and thank you - a good cuppa sounds awesome right now....

Yeah, but now the problem is I've had TOO much time on my hands and I'm ready to go back to work! Yes there are still tons of thank you cards ready to be done but I get antsy really fast. lol

Congratulations on your marriage!!!!!

Yuck!!! Rainy mess here now, but that's better than 101.

 

[xmas365]

Kitchen clean, dishes done, living room clean, air conditioner put away for another season.
I am feeling great, nothing wrong that I know of. Just got results of my mammogram and it was normal.
Do not have to be at work until 5 so I get to relax and enjoy the afternoon.

I think I will work on some more cake decorations.

Glad to hear all is normal.

I still follow the Cowboys and a die hard fan of them. We still go to some of the games and the new stadium is awesome! My 6 year old grandson recently got to go to a game and when he walked into the stadium he said, "It looks like magic in here"!

I do agree with you about Jones and most people who are fans of the Cowboys feel the same way. I know quite a few people who quit following the Boys after Jones took over. It's not the same at all but I still love watching them!

That is the way it feels to walk into Fenway Park and see the Green Monster.

 

[xmas365]

Bethlehem lights is on QVC right now!!!!!!!

We get Chad and Michelle along with Mary Beth today.

DOOHH! I missed it!

 

[brent]

That is the way it feels to walk into Fenway Park and see the Green Monster.

...and Lambeau Field! The amount of people at games that I have overheard talking about how they just come to experience Lambeau Field (because they are not a fan of the Packers or the visiting team) is impressive.

Good evening,

JP's dentist visit went well, his 6 year molars are growing in and the chipped tooth happened to be his baby tooth being cracked by the incoming molars. So it turns out to be nothing to be worried about, all is normal. Went and replaced the battery again, no charge as we just purchased the battery 3 weeks ago, phew! that gets expensive. Getting ready to dive into the beef stew.''


Talk to you later.

I'm only about a year and a half removed from doing this, but I do miss it! By that, I mean attending classes and such. Good times. I understand the exhaustion and inability to remain focused with lectures. Some professors have it and some don't... At least it's only once a week - and it's early in the week, too... It makes everything after seem so much easier!

Binger! They must have changed plans for Darlene Love on Letterman because now she is scheduled to sing Thursday December 20 instead of the 21st. (According to her facebook post). I just wanted to pass that along for the Countdown to her performance. =)

I can't wait to see her!

 

[Seawaters]

I am not a fan of hot weather anyway, and for it to be hot in the fall is a sacrilege!

Wow that is hot, especially for early October. Watching the Texas/Oakland game last night, I saw Oakland had its second warmest day of the baseball season.

 

[Seawaters]

Yes!

maybe vacation with michael buble !!! :hello:

 

[Seawaters]

Yes, you might as well. I love that stuff!

Reckon since getting ready to go to work, might as well pick up a pumpkin spice latte
