I look like a monster! A blood vessel broke in my eye and now my eye looks like it's bleeding. What a way to top off my Monday, lol.

No wonder you miss him. What a special dad and how lucky you are that he was yours!

It really was, and it even had a nice surprise. The new windows were too expensive for Nancy and me to be able to buy one. At that time she was home with the kids, and wasn't working at all. Anyway, after I read the dedication for our family window, I sat down. Then they called me up again. Apparently, Dad bought another window with Nancy & my names as the givers.

He's been gone 7 years this month, and he's still surprising me.

cheesy

 

[Seawaters]

I did!!! It reminded me of that Harry Chapin song.

I hope you stayed within the lines. cheesy

Baby is going to be part of my shout out to furkids if it is okay ....???? xox

 

[Seawaters]

Absolutely. She is so special to us. I never thought I could love an animal the way I love her! When she sticks out her little tongue, I laugh my head off!

Good evening,

I am very tired tonight, rough day at work getting caught up from a busy weekend. I was running like a chicken with its head cut off most of the day. I did get some great news today, almost an early Christmas gift if you say. My vacation time for the week after Christmas was approved, so I will be off from 12/25-1/2/13 I was shocked it got approved, since they have been so adamant against vacations in December for the last year or so. I am so ecstatic about that right now. Just watching Jaws 2 now, probably won't make it up for QVC tonight.Have a great night!

Thats nice to hear, you gonna plan anything or just chill out and enjoy the season

Good evening Christmas family !!

I am so whipped and everything is hurting. UGH. It was really chilly here today so when I finished this afternoon, we made a fire in the fireplace. I am hoping the weather forecasters are off as far as this Winter here....They keep saying it will be warmer than average....I WANT SNOW !!!!!

Cm3 am sorry this not getting any better, is there nothing that can help. what a differance doctor. you cant be in pain like this all the time
Big hugs to your babies as well and one for you to

Sorry I was gone for a couple of weeks. Daily life just keeps getting more and more stressful.

I'm back today (don't know for how long) because I have a some time now. That may change very quickly.

Hope you are all well and have a good time.

thank you everyone for the Thanksgiving greetings!
Undrtakr, love the pictures! Got home from our dinner and realized I totally forgot to take pictures!

We had a great dinner with family. Enjoyed turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, brussel sprouts, meatballs, cauliflower, pickled beets, onions and pickles. For dessert we had pumpkin cheese cake, pumpkin pie, rhubarb, strawberry pie, apple crisp and buckets of whip cream, and ice cream.
Mulled apple cider, tea, coffee and assorted cold drinks were used to wash it all down.
We talked, played with the kids, talked, played games, talked, arranged the family Christmas party, talked, closed the door to the living room because the guys were talking louder than us women in the kitchen!

In other words, we had a great time!

Sounds like the perfect day!! Food sounds delicious!! xxx

Wow it's early! I could not sleep so I decided to get on up and now I feel a little sleepy. Its a very mild 62F outside this morning,and I am still waiting on cool weather..I kind of think we may have another mild fall/winter this year,but then again its just really too early to tell yet I guess. I will be glad to get this short work week over with. And it was so good to get away over the long weekend and see some great fall weather. The leaves are really turning in the higher elevation of Georgia,but here in the southeast part of the state things are mostly still green.Brnadi has just a few more weeks before her maternity leave starts,and I will be off the last 2 weeks of october as well so I can't wait for that! Have a great tuesday morning everyone!

Good Second Morning of the Work Week, my Friends.

And with a dwindling count there's not a second to loose!
Days to the Season: 35
Days to Christmas Day: 77

With no more Milestones remaining between us and the commencement of Christmas Season 2012, we eagerly count down the final days until that singular moment, which according to the count is a scant 5 weeks from today.
Woweewingers!!

Downright cold here yesterday for early October with the temp staying below 50 for much of the day.
Coupled with off and on rain and general dampness, it was not very pleasant.
The weather service says we will get a near carbon copy for today with perhaps a bit warmer high.
I see 49 degrees on the old thermometer, currently.

Allright.
A Terrific Tuesday awaits all who follow the message of the Season and allow its magic enter their lives.
Open your heart to it today!

Congratulations! Wayne will be getting a few days off the week before Christmas and we are excited to get to do lots of Christmasy things together!

I am so whipped and everything is hurting. UGH.

I hope you get out of pain real soon!!!

Man, I love reading about Thanksgiving from my northern friends! Awesome! Taker, the picture of William was so funny! Christmasstar, you day sounds almost like ours...you just didn't have any football...but you had a lot better food! I'm so happy for y'all and jealous at the same time! I can't wait for ours.

Oh yes! Football is VERY important for Thanksgiving Day celebration! Or should I say, Dallas Cowboys are very important!

Our Thanksgiving dinner was so good. The mushroom bread pudding was a real surprise; even Hubby liked it. I think the roasted cauliflower was my favorite. The fingerling potatoes with bacon cream was very tasty; so was the mesquite-grilled turkey. Definitely a "do-again."

Sounds delish!
