Hey, merry! I haven't had enough coffee yet :grin: Have a most MERRY day today!!!
Off to brothers place in a couple of hours. Everything is ready to go...I hope.
Good Monday morning everyone. Happy Thanksgiving to our Canadian friends.
We had a very good weekend. The Casting Crowns concert Saturday night was great. We had a very nice day at church yesterday. We have Sunday School at 9:45, Worship service at 11:00 and finally Sunday night service at 6:00. Just enough time in between services to eat lunch and watch some playoff baseball.
Back to work today. Temp was 45 this morning with some light rain. We are forecast to reach 50 for a high with a low of 38 tonight.
Sure hope Accuweather is correct with their winter forecast. They say we will have "much above normal" snowfall. Here is the link...

It sounds like I have to plan some extra trips to the Smokies this winter. :wink:
Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!
We had an all-day event at church yesterday, with Homecoming services (one of my favorite pastors from the 1980's preached!), a HUGE lunch, then family dedications for stained glass windows and furnishings. It was a fun day.
Then Jacob and I went out and did some more farming, planting rye for the deer.
After that, they wanted McDonald's. They went through McD's drive-thru last Friday night, and when they got home, they found that Nancy's burger wasn't in the bag. After we got home last night...Nancy's burger wasn't in the bag. Boy, she was mad. But, between Friday nite and last night, that was about $10 they had taken from me this weekend with no meals being provided. So, we drove back to McD's (about 10 miles) and had them make her burger...LOL. That was an expensive burger!
I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

As you and I have talked about this before, yes, other things get behind while trying to work on videos! Very time consuming!
Welcome Back!!!
Big thanks to Brent! He did well!
So glad you had a good time at the concert!
Hope you get lots of snow!
You must live in a very small town to drive so far for a McDonalds. I think we have one on every corner here!
I am glad you all had a nice time at church.
So sorry for your BIL's mothers passing. Prayers to them.
You know the fastest way to get rid of water on the floor without a shop vac (thankfully I have now). Use a broom and dustpan! You can sweep up water into the dustpan to dump in the sink. Once you get up as much as possible then of course go to other means, mop, rags, etc. I saw someone else do that before and never thought to do it. It really is a lot faster! (Sorry that info came to you late but I'm sure it can be useful in the future) =)
Aww... I hope your lab will do okay!
Wow! I slept and slept and slept and it was GREEEEEEAT! My granddaughter will not be over until later this morning and I slept until almost 9 am. I went to sleep around 10 pm, got lots of sleep.
Now I am sitting here snuggled with my doggies and drinking coffee. It's chilly in here!
All the Canadians having Thanksgiving today is getting me excited for ours! Enjoy your day! What time is dinner??? :wink:

I SWEAR by towels!!! They are so much better than a mop, and all you have to do is dump them in the washer!
Your Maggie sounds SO SWEET!!! I was picturing her in my mind, along with Holly. You began my day with a smile!!!
So sorry about the almost 90-year-old Maggie, but I am glad your BIL got to be with her at the end. You are right about being positive. We mourn and are sad, but the precious memories really do sustain us.

good morning My MC cuties!!!! hope this morning finds each of you feeling better than before a good nights rest.
my b-i-l's mother passed away last evening. they had went back home on friday morning. his brother called him yesterday & said to come back, their mothers breathing was very bad. he got here & saw her & about 10 minutes later she passed. i am so thankful he was able to see & speak to her before she left for her heavenly home. her name was Maggie Lou Stacks. she had 2 sons, 2 daughters, & made a career as a beautician. had numerous grands, some she helped raise. over 5 years ago she was diagnosed w/ Alzheimer's & had gotten really bad. she was 1 month shy of turning 90. Miss Maggie had a very full life. i don't think she would want anyone to be sad now.so i'm just gonna be happy for her & pray i live that long & happy.
i got up BEFORE the roosters this morning! hubby woke me in a panic. scared the bajeebers outta me, the dishwasher had flooded the kitchen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i got all over him for that. as long as it's not someONE it's ok. besides seeing him so upset, i had to stay calm, ya' know? he said, "you'll have to get the mop to dry it up". now let me tell y'all, my mop is a rag head mop about 12" long & my kitchen ain't small. do you have any idea how long i would've been there doing that w/ that little mop????? i'll tell ya', TOO LONG! i went & gathered towels & started soaking it up & squeezing them out & soaking more up. bless his heart he started helping me. it was up in just a little bit so here i am now, wide awake on my 2nd cup'o joe.
daughter is out of school today for Columbus day & assuming i didn't have to get up early this morning, i stayed up till midnight watching TV. i think i may be dragging in a bit now.
our choc.lab, Maggie(coincidentally same name) hurt her leg last week some how. Seth noticed her limping & we checked her over & found a single puncture wound on her front right leg. this is hubby's pup & he wasn't here. w/ seth's help i cleaned the wound, put salv on it & covered it w/ the top of 1 of hubby's socks. she is the sweetest thing & i can't stand to see any of them hurt. we didn't play ball w/ her because no matter how bad she's hurt she would still try to run & jump. her limp is almost gone now & the wound has healed over on the outside.
she's our gentle giant. she probably weighs about 100lbs. & in the a.m. when we feed them all she stands right over the food, her head up, looking around, & lets' Daisy, Diva, & Mickey eat. when she knows they're finished she'll look around 1 more time & then she will begin to eat. God love her, she is so sweet. our cat, Holly doesn't like any of us (lol) but Maggie. Holly will get on her stoop & if any of them come over she hisses & swats @ them w/ fangs showing, but not w/ Maggie. Maggie will put her face up to Holly & Holly will lean over & lick her & they rub faces. precious!
wow, i am really talking this morning huh? sorry. on saturday & sunday i have no one to talk to because hubby & Seth are watching football ALL DAY, daughter is usually gone, & Will is @ work.i have to catch up w/ y'all!
have a blessed day friends!!!!!:merry:SIZE]
Right back atcha!

My hometown was in the above normal range. Wish I could be there this winter. When I was in the Baptist church, our church services were like yours. For some reason, I loved the 6 p.m. service. In my youth, we had a young people's meeting where we studied a lesson much like the quarterly lesson for Sunday School. Then we had a church service. I loved that! I hope your mom is persevering. She is in my thoughts and prayers a lot. So are you because it is not easy to watch your parent suffer.
