I agree! My house is stocked with goodies. I have chocolate chip cookies in the oven right now. The snow didn't begin to fall yet but I can hear the wind, it's really picking up. I'm all ready for the storm.

Stay safe!!

I bet your house smells so good right now!
 
I've made it to the Pines but I need a coffee IV before I join in the party.
 
And with this post, Christmasstar is poster #9000. For her efforts, she wins a snowball machine with a detachable snow ball maker in which she can make snow cones and use the snow ball maker to form snowballs for throwing. Way to go Star!!! We girls need all the help we can get against those snowball-throwing boys on here!!!


temps are dropping again, but warmer ones on the way, so maybe the snow will go sooner than June!
 
I sure hope the police get the culprits!


Our neighbors' home was broken into while they were out. Their entire house was trashed and things from jewelry to video game systems were stolen. Whoever it was then unlocked all of their windows so they could return. Please keep my family in your thoughts/prayers in case this person does come back. It's so creepy that the person came in broad daylight and I never even noticed anything going on.
 
Yes, I am enjoying the app. I chose a Christmas wreath that shows the days and when I press on it, it plays a Christmas song and shows the days, hours, minutes and seconds. There are quite a few songs on it.


You're welcome!! ;)

Are you enjoying your Christmas Countdown app's?
 
I would be bummed, too, XmasTidings. What a big disappointment!

I like your thinking.... Yup, I guess I will have to really pace myself from all that snow we got outside! Yea... I got up at 4:30 this morning, looked outside and saw some light snow coming down. So, I went downstairs, got my morning cup of Joe and turned on what else of course, None other than the Weatherchannel.

Well Lord behold, they were calling for 7"-14" of snow, exactly right over where I live... I about jumpped for joy. (Now of course, if you know me, then you would know that I have been hopeing for some snow all winter and this would finially be it)! So far this year and all of last year has been a complete bust for any snow.

So, I went outside and it was raining, and I took the wife to work and then I went to work myself. With baited breath, I have been looking out the window all day waiting for the snow, all it was doing was raining. I checked Accuweather, Foots forecast and the weatherbug, and they all said that right around noon, we were going to get dumped on. I left work, hurried up home, made a fire in the fireplace and turned on the TV to the weather channel and they had revised the forecast for my area to 5"-7" of snow. I looked outside and it was still raining.:-?

I left the house went to pick up the wife and it was still raining. The idiots have completely gotten the entire weather forecast 100% wrong. Snow, what snow, all I see is rain, rain, rain.... I'm a little peeved right about now. For 5 days now, all they have been talking about was the impending storm, got everyone all worked up and what happend, nothing! I GOT A ROCK...... It was a bigtime bust of a snow event... Again, another yaer of no snow,,,I'm bummed out:-(!
 
You might not know this, XmasTidings, but I won a Lear jet when I was one of the milestone posters. Of course I am the one who gives out these prizes, but I think I do a great job. Just look at what Star won for being poster #9000!!! I am always on the go picking up everyone to travel to all the places like Georgia to visit Bradmac when he makes breakfast at Bernie's, Canada to have cookies and eggnog with Star, etc.


Me too, Me too... Can I come? I love Gingerbread cookies!!! Dip them in gome hot tea, put a good old movie on, make a fire in the fireplace, ahhhhh.... Let it snow, let it snow, Let it snow!!!!
 
HomemakinGirl, I was finally able to add you to my Friends list. For some reason, it would not save the changes so I just typed in your name and added you that way!!!
 
Good evening, Christmas family

Getting ready to work on my assignment for my writing class. What a stressful day !! We had to have our taxes done and I was certain we were going to OWE but it turned out we are getting a small amount back ! So that was a BIG relief. We had taken Clancy to the doctor yesterday because her breath has been kind of similar to Wishbone's lately and we wanted to be sure she does not have kidney disease also.

It turns out that she is FINE. Her bad breath is because of a couple of teeth we are going to have to have pulled. Other than that the labs they did on her blood are all NORMAL. Thank God.

I thought I found a dress for the wedding but when I tried it on, it was a bit too clingy. I don't want to look like I have a "baby bump" at this age so still shopping. I may have found something at Macy's though. I am going to try and check that out maybe this weekend.

Bradmac - Very concerned about you xo I pray all is well.

Jennifer - I feel so sad that this dreadful event happened. I pray the police catch whoever is responsible.

I pray all those still in the path of the latest snow storm are safe and do not get to hammered !!

HomemakinGirl - It is so nice to have you as part of our Christmas family and also the Countdown !!

Well, off I go to brainstorm some ideas so I can complete my assignment for this week's lesson.

A BIG BIG THANK YOU !!!! Seawaters !!!!! I love the books You sent. They, like you, are truly amazing !!!! I hope I can make you proud someday xoxo

I am not throwing snowballs at only the girls, no one is safe from me. cheesy
 
I am thinking I will be staying home from work again tomorrow, my head still isn't feeling right, and I am just feeling downright lousy. I think the rest will really help at this point.



Good night everyone.

I hate it that you don't feel good......I hope the rest helps. Yes, stay home. That's what I would do....xo
 
I stumbled across the WGBH Holiday station on the TuneIn Radio app---very nice to relax with! It's all classical Christmas music.

Just about ready to turn in for the night. Can't seem to keep up with the changing weather reports. Still no snow. I'll see what I find when I wake up in the morning. Goodnight everyone!
 
Good evening everyone! Reporting from the Pines with Carl! He is playing some podcasts tonight! Love to hear them over and over!

Busy day at work. Busy busy busy! Glad to be home. Not much new. People around here are snow grinches hah! I have my Christmas lights plugged in here and they are flashing away happy as can be! I'm listening to one of the podcasts too. On a random note I wish it was the weekend! HAH! Well hope everyone is staying safe and warm! See ya at the pines you night owls!
