So, while drinking coffee I have watched the Andy Griffith show (one of the Christmas specials), Frosty, Frosty Returns, and I'm about to start on Fred Claus.
The best TV all year is Christmas time....

Good morning, MMC!
I woke up to a Winter Wonderland ~ absolutely beautiful out! I have a lot to do today ~ Palmer is assisting me so I'm sure it will take twice as long to do everything :grin:
Have a MERRY day!!!

It's now a Winter Wonderland here in northern Michigan, too 
Just finished trimming the tree. We went with a red/gold theme this year, and it looks quite beautiful, if I do say so myself. :sparkle:

Good morning, Victoria! Happy Sunday to you, too! Aw, I am sorry that you did not sleep well. Last night was surprisingly the first night for a few days now that I actually slept. I could not imagine being so cold and then getting up and having to layer! I do enjoy reading a book in bed, maybe that's why you were able to fall back to sleep. I hope tonight brings you a better sleep!
Good morning, Aleksa! Have a wonderful Sunday!
I am sure your Christmas tree is so pretty, Solice! We finally got ours decorated yesterday. Wow! That really is cold. It's about 32°F here. I am hoping for some snow, but we haven't seen anything but some scattered flurries. That sounds like the perfect day to enjoy some Christmas fun! Have a marvelous Sunday!
Good morning! The Karate Kid is a good movie! I wish I could go outside, but it is way too cold to even think about. I don't feel like bundling up in layers. Have a wonderful Sunday with Kandice!
Good morning, Crown! Thanks for yet again such a wonderful update. Christmas is so close, right around the corner! I can't believe we'll be in the 20's so soon. Yikes, that is pretty cold. We're only a few degrees warmer here. Have a great Sunday!
Good morning, Xmas! I hope you have a great Sunday!
Only 25 days?! Time sure is flying by. Only a few more weeks! Have a wonderful Sunday, Binger!
Wow, what a busy week you've had! No wonder you are so drained. It sounds like you need to hibernate for the day to try to catch up on some sleep. I hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving! I hope my Christmas Break is more relaxing, too! Only a few more weeks. Have a great Sunday!
Good morning, CAH! So nice to see you! I am sorry that you got sick and that you pulled your back out. My mom did that last year and it was not pleasant. I am glad that you were able to enjoy seeing Paul! Six Flags is always a fun time! Just take it at a slower pace on yourself. At least you know that you can get the tree up soon and it won't be very long until you're able to enjoy it again. I agree with you, this is definitely the most wonderful time of the year. Enjoy your Sunday and I will be praying for you, CAH! Take care!
Good morning, Sugar! I also have been DVRing a lot of Christmas shows/movies/specials on TV. Even though I will probably fill up my space soon, at least they are programs I love and I know I will take the time to watch. Enjoy your decorating, we just finished everything up yesterday with the tree. Have a wonderful Sunday with your family - I hope the turkey soup turns out great!
On our way to San Antonio we passed through, Carl's Corner, Texas!
How neat! Thanks for sharing the picture! I guess we know where we can find Carl hiding out when he's not at the Pines!
That sounds like the perfect Sunday morning (minus work). I love when it starts to snow during the holiday season. Have a great day and don't work too hard!
Well, that sounds like the perfect morning! I love Frosty. I still need to watch that this season. I haven't had much time to sit and watch anything with all of the decorating I have been doing. I totally agree - Christmas time offers the best TV shows, movies, and specials!
Good morning, Meceka! I wish I had a picture to see the beautiful snow! We have only had flurries here so far. I hope that you get everything done that you need to today. I am sure Palmer is a wonderful assistant! Have a wonderful day and be careful if you have to go anywhere in the snow!
I am so jealous! I wish that we had some snow. This is the perfect time of the year for it and it really gets me in the Christmas spirit. Your tree sounds beautiful! Red and gold are classic and look so wonderful together. Very festive! Have a great Sunday!
Good morning, MMC! I am finally caught up on the posts from this morning. I am so jealous that some of you have snow! So far, we've only had some flurries with no accumulation.
As of yesterday, the tree is not only up (as it has been since Monday), but it is now all decorated. It looks so pretty! We put 1,500 lights on it this year, which is a lot for a 7 foot tree. I am so excited to light the tree up every day!
It has been very nice to have the week off from college, but now it is going to be very busy over the next four weeks. I have a relatively simple week this upcoming week, but next week I will have a lot of presentations and big assignments due. Then I have one week of regular school after that, and then the week after is finals week. I am very disappointed that my Christmas break does not start until December 22nd. I always do all of my cookie baking the week before Christmas and now I will be busy with finals.
The only thing that will get me through the next few weeks is Christmas! I love this time of the year, it truly is the best. I love all of the movies, TV specials, and shows that are on. I record all of the holiday episodes of sitcoms like Friends, Everybody Loves Raymond, and King of Queens. They are always so good!
I am going to begin kicking off my marathon of watching Christmas movies every weekend. I have so many movies to get through but not enough time!
A relaxing day ahead of me! Have a great day, everyone!

house is decorated...some small garlands...some figurines, some stockings and a small, small village....i was too tired to do it...then it hit me that next sunday is the 1st of advent....and that I need to have it decorated at least a week before that....which is today....so I did that...and then cooked some burritos....we had a good day today....but im tired...this week was hard
as i wrote the last week was very, very exhausting.....we had much more mail then usual....at least a hundred letters more each day with the exception of tuesday...then on monday i helped my uncle pack porcelin and glasses, since he was moving....then on tuesday i went there again to help clean his new kitchen...wednesday nothing...thursday...helping him pack boxes....and when i say helping him...it means doing it alone...since he never does anything...my dad came, too and helped...then on friday taking kandice to hockey practise, dance practise, work at home....and then on saturday....finally helping the uncle to move out and today first chilling and then doing the house, the laundry and then the decoration
Cookie baking today...won't get them all done, but I'm determined not to get behind this year! I usually get overwhelmed once the calendar turns to December 1st if I haven't got the tree up and the cookies made. I'm really hoping I'll take the stress level down a notch or two by being proactive in getting some things nicely completed and actually having time to savor the season!
I don't want to be a grinch!
How is everyone else handling their excitement and their to-do list?

Good afternoon, everyone!
Hope you are all having a wonderful and relaxing Sunday.
It's hard to believe the weekend is coming to an end. I feel like Thanksgiving was just yesterday!
Everyone is quiet today! I just watched my Steelers lose. We are not looking very good this year. I believe we had eight turnovers just in this game - embarrassing! I would be shocked if we made the playoffs.
Enjoy your day!

I hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday and getting some of their favorite seasonal tasks done...even if that includes laying on the couch watching Christmas movies!
Hello! How's it going there, friend? (Meceka)

Nice to see you back!
A Steelers loss is always good news for my Bengals, who beat Carson Palmer and the Raiders today. The Bengals are looking good again, which is good since I still don't have hockey. :x
