Christmas Countdown - 2013

[HomemakinGirl]

Hello again!
I went to Target this morning and bought much more than I originally went in for. Like usual. My youngest stayed home from school today. She isn't feeling well. Not sure if she is coming down with something or if she just did too much this weekend. I can not believe the shifts she is getting at Haagen Dazs. She had nine hour shifts! Plus she took the SAT on Saturday. Those shifts might be alright over the summer but its a lot for her now since she still has school and homework! Anyway my oldest thinks she is getting pink eye so I am bringing the both of them to the doctor later this afternoon. Its always something! I am going to bake cookies now. I feel like baking.
Hope everyone is having a great day!

That pink eye is no fun! Hope she doesn't have it, and if she does, I hope she recovers quickly!

Morning! Hope everyone is having a good day. Busy night at work again...blah!

DH is clearing out bushes and small trees with some machine he rented, which is going to make lots of noise today...fun, fun! The neighbor that built the street behind us, is also getting fill for their yard, so I will hear the dumping all day as well. I am hoping I will fall asleep and avoid it all!

I hope you all have a great start to your week and a wonderful Monday! I will be back later. See ya then!

It will be a busy week for us. My mom is getting ready for surgery Wednesday and is very nervous. I am no help because I am nervous too! She is such a highly active person and I hate seeing her not being able to get around much and hurting but after this surgery and healing she will be back to her old self. I cannot wait to move forward with it all!

Still praying for your mom.

The rooster story made me laugh. I wish i could have seen it in person.

Good Morning everyone!

She is such a highly active person and I hate seeing her not being able to get around much and hurting but after this surgery and healing she will be back to her old self. I cannot wait to move forward with it all!

I really appreciate everyone's concern, thoughts and prayers for her!!!

Good news, I got a raise at work. Completely unexpected! Every time I get one it's unexpected. They told me I am doing a great job and they love having me there. 10 years there and I still love that place!!!

Then at work we had a funny incident. I was waiting on this man who was buying a rooster from us. We usually go get the rooster out of the cage, put it in a box then bring it to the counter. Instead, this man brought the rooster to the counter and was waiting on us bringing a box. We had a lot of customers around and when I brought the box the rooster flipped out making a lot of noise then hopped all over the counter jumping on people and knocking stuff all over the place. That poor little guy was scared but it seems that everyone was entertained by the mess he made. He broke a lid on a jar of local honey so I got a discount on it and bought it! =)

I felt bad for the rooster but we are suppose to get them and put them in a box to prevent that, not have the customer bring them to us but it all worked out! In the end the rooster has a new home!

Have a great day everyone!

Calming thoughts for you and your mom---the anxiety will be behind you soon.

The unexpected emergencies at your workplace are so different (and so much more entertaining!) than the ones at my office! Glad to hear the rooster is okay.

I know the feeling, Snowflake.

My hubby is home safe. Yay!!

Goodnight, friends!!

We all have times when we cannot keep up either!!!

Happy Monday everyone. Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. It is a holiday here today in England. It looks set to be a rather nice day....I can feel summer's warmth trying hard to break through Spring's chilly presence.

I'm thinking about doing a BBQ today. I'm going to take a lovely stroll with the kiddies to the supermarket and pick up some tasty snacks.

I'm sorry I couldn't catch up with everyone's posts over the last few days. I hope you are all well and coping with whatever life is throwing at you.

It would be fun to see that, but I am sure you cannot share, darn it!

Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!

It was a great weekend! I know I bragged on her last week, but Elizabeth was WONDERFUL in her ballet recital Saturday evening! They have the recitals professionally recorded, so we can't bring in camcorders or cameras. It's a little irritating, but on the other hand, I got the watch the recital on stage, instead of through the viewfinder. Of course, now I have to buy a $25 DVD.

More work to do on the Camaro this week. I swear, I thought we'd be driving by now. With unlimited funds, we probably would have been. As it is, it'll probably be well in the summer before it's ready for the street. Oh, well. We're having a good time working together on it.

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

 

[Seawaters]

Thanks, Ryan. In addition to free breakfast, Mass, and flowers and cards, we went to dinner for Mexican food. I got a free dessert--cappuccino cheesecake!

A late happy birthday, Seawaters! I'm sorry I missed it! I hope it was a good one. Free breakfast and church...sounds like a pretty good day to me! :smile: Hope you have a blessed year between now and your next birthday!

 

[Seawaters]

I love your work stories! They always make me smile. Keep reminding us about your mom. I definitely don't want to forget to pray on that day, especially.

I can just picture Harlowe and Molly. This sounds so cute!

That's adorable Snowflake. Some of the things they do are so cute. Molly will scratch the door of the cabinet that I keep their leashes in, to let me know she wants to go out for a walk.

 

[Seawaters]

Oh, but tell him about Orb, Made, LOL!!!

About normal. My horses finished 15th and 17th.

 

[Seawaters]

That does sound like a heavy load! Pink eye is so irritating, and it can really make you feel blah! I am sure you are taking good care of them, though!
