good morning, my many madcap mid-week march madness masters.

Well, hold on to your santa hats!
In case you missed it yesterday, we moved into the second quarter of our journey back to christmas.

And the question is begged -- what is our next milestone?
<< anxious, aren't we, crown? >>
well now, with the important subject being christmas and its fantastic season, we must keep up with the pace and know where we are at all times, right?

But first, there is this:
Days to the season: 231
days to christmas day: 273

now. Milestones #6 and 7.
<< six and seven, crown? >>
yes. And i'll tell you why.
They are only one day apart!
<< no! >>
yes.
April 26th, less than a month from today, we will pass the 1/3 mark to christmas day.
And on april 27th, the very next day, we pass through the 200-day window into the first of our 100's level counts.
Woweewingertoesandfingers, guys!!

Still cold?
Uh huh!
Several more days of it, in fact.
(it would be intolerable, if it weren't for the fact that this is 'pines day.)
we are at 35 degrees here, currently.

Speaking of 'pines day, this is the final one for the month, you know.
Carl has said this evening's theme will be "march out in style".
Now, he has stated camels are most stylish, so......
(oh, gee. Now i'm getting a disturbing image of a camel-lead conga line.)

anyway, regardless of the insanity, we hope to see you all there!
And let's have a wonderful wednesday along the way, ok?

***awesome***

This takes videos too? I plan to take a lot of videos as well. Wayne and I will both get one so we will have double storage that he can take video and pictures too.

Sorry you are feeling bad. Remember I haven't been there to wash dishes lately so you didn't catch it from me! =)

Yes it can take video too. Video's will eat up memory fast though, but like you said, if you and wayne both have one you would still be fine.

I think you sent it in one of your emails!!!!

Good morning!
I am up and going over code lists again. I need occasional breaks so pop in here when I can. My shelf needs dusting. Hope you all have a great morning.

I have to do my last shift at Subway tonight, which does not leave me much time for study. Next test is tomorrow morning at 11am.

Enough chatter, back to the codes!

You will do fantastic !!!! xo

The Iphone5 has an 8mp camera and the base model has 16gb of memory. So it should hold roughly 6000 pictures. Now you are going to be using some of that memory for apps and stuff like that. But even if you only have half of the memory left, you would still be looking at almost 3000 pictures. So as long as you don't go crazy, it should hold them all.

You are just too technically savy, Made !!!!! xo

I am actually just fine with my outdated phone and every time I was due for a new phone I would get the freebie with my plan with no frills. I have had no use for it but knew someday I would find a use for it. Now is the time I feel a need for it. I love being able to scan coupon codes since I am a coupon junky! It will save all the ink I use to print up coupons off of groupon and other sites. I also need it for our vacation even though that is a ways off. It might be another month before we make the big jump into technology so I am shopping around! =)

Oh that Carl! He must have come up with that word too??? :lol:

Adrian loves the Red Laser & Retail Me Not apps, and finds amazing deals on them!!!

He also told me to tell you that it all depends on the size of memory you purchase with your IPhone. So, he recommends making sure you do some research & are comfortable with the size you choose because you can't add more...

Good morning everyone.

Yesterday night, I crashed! I've never felt anything like that (must mean I'm getting older ). But I've been finishing up my school, working, and getting up early to work out at the gym. Long story short, it all caught up with me and I just crashed and fell asleep at 8:30. I got ten hours and I still feel like I could sleep more!

So I didn't workout today, and am going to get some more sleep tonight. At lunch, I'm going to go out for some BBQ as that usually refuels me pretty good :lol:. BBQ is sort of my "cure all" medicine.

Anyway, have a great day everyone!

Sounds like you are running yourself ragged !! Be sure to take time to relax !!! xo

Of course it is okay that you post a song on the thread. I started the thread for everyone if they felt like a Christmas song to post it. I love that song also, I still don't have that on MP3 or CD.

I hope you are able to pursue more classes, I hope you get the tooth issue fixed soon.

Thanks, Xmas. I know how important and dangerous this tooth thing could be but still I HAVE to have the money before I go in......Can't be having a great big credit card bill !! xo

sometimes our bodies just announce..."that's it, we are shutting down now!" and there is not a thing you can do about it. Has happened to me a few times too.

Good Morning MMC!!!! The warm up continues today with a high in the low 40's predicted. It's hard to beleive that we had 8 inches of snow on Monday and I can see the grass already in some spots. It will probably all be gone by the end of the day. There is talk that we may see more next monday though. I don't see much happening around here today. I woke up with a sinus headache, stuffed up nose, and sore throat. I would blame CAH but I think it may have something to do with the 6 hours I spent outside shoveling snow. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!

Not much going on here today either Made. A lot of our snow is gone already......xo

Lot of talk about iPhones on here recently...my wife and I have been thinking of getting one, or some other smart phone. We just have plain ol' cell phones because we've been too cheap to pay for data. But, any more, all new ones seem to be smart phones so I will need to break down and get one when we upgrade.

The main reason I want a smart phone: the MMC forums! I'm already looking forward to the Christmas Blossoms 2013 threat, and with a phone that has a camera, I can post all sorts of good Christmas finds...excited to go "hunting" for them in late September!

You sound like me. I HATE the idea of paying for data. I have access all day at work and all night at home. Why do I need access walking down the street? But I needed something with a calendar function to help me keep my busy life in order. So I got the cheapest data plan they offer. Grrrr.

Yes, I have the IPhone 5 & take videos all the time. Of mostly Harlowe, of course!!

Now I have to take Lulu to the groomer. She hates being left there, but she MUST have a haircut. I'll drop her off at 11:30 and pick her up at 1:30 when I go to lunch. BRB!
