Christmas Countdown - 2013

[shellie12]

I am feeling a little stressed but I will be okay! Yesterday my dog at the vet, today my cat, tomorrow my mom's surgery. It's just surgery on her ankle but I cannot help but feel stressed and nervous! I tell myself, "Stop it"! I will just be glad when she is out of surgery and on the road to recovery! She has so much trouble sitting still and actually still doing whatever kind of exercise she is able to even though her ankle is giving her problems. With her upbeat attitude on recovering I am sure she will do well! I really do appreciate everyone's thoughts and prayers!
Christmas cheer will get us through it all!!! :-D

Thinking of you cah. am not gonna say dont get stressed. for your gonna do it anyway. its what we do. but in a few days all will be so much better. just you wait and see and today the worst will be over. so tomorrow can only be better. thoughts and prayers for you and your mum today ~}

If any of you know of a place my youngest could rent in Opelika, AL, please let me know. He is now homeless, residing in a hotel and I am frantic!

Seawaters really hope he finds something very soon, and try and stop worring if you can

Thank you!
It will be so much more convenient. I am going to take a ride to see him later after he gets settled in.

Festive Spirit, my youngest is doing well. But my oldest has pink eye and it is such a drag. Her eyes were swollen yesterday and she said they hurt. I got nervous and called the doctor, but she said it is normal. Hoping she a little feels better today when she wakes up. Thank you so much for asking!

A Piney Good Morning to you, Friends of the old Shispering P.

And I'll bet you're pining for this, so here it is:
Days to the Season: 189
Days to Christmas Day: 231
One week from today, Folks -- the Fifty Percent marker to Christmas Season 2013.
(What we are ALL pining for!)

Well, Gee Whiz!
As if the chilly weather wasn't enough.
As if the wind wasn't enough
As if the rain wasn't enough.
Yesterday we added HAIL to the mix.
(I don't think Spring is coming. I think winter is returning!)
But no matter. I have my thoughts of Christmas and this evening's visit to the 'Pines to keep me warm.
And by Friday (if not tomorrow) we should finally be in a warming trend.
We are at 54 degrees here, currently.

OK, Pines lovers.
Carl is ready with our second open house of May. Don't know what this week's theme will be but you can bet with Carl in charge, it will be well worth the visit.
(Hey. The fired twinkies and sweet southern ice tea alone are a sufficent draw for me!)
See you there.

And have a Wonderful Wednesday, too!

Awww I really hope her eye clears quickly. I don't like when my kids are sick, I get really frustrated to see them in discomfort so I understand. At the moment my 1yr old has a cold, I'm hoping he gets a better nights sleep tonight. Have a nice visit later with your Dad

It's such a wonderful thing!! The house smells so fresh, and it lift my spirits too =]

Wowsers!!! What a fun idea! I never knew such a place existed! I bet you can't wait! As it will be in October, it' will be such a nice lead up to the Christmas season.

Wow! I cannot thank you all enough for your kind words and prayers. I told my mom you all sent a good word and she is thankful! Today is my mom's surgery and I actually don't feel quite as stressed as I have been. I think I felt all the good vibes and prayers you all have sent my way!

I am not one to have the "poor me" attitude and didn't mean to come across that way because even when things pile up I stop and remind myself, "It's a Wonderful Life"!!! I feel blessed and have a very supportive family and AWESOME husband and of course all of my MMC family! In reality, things are not that bad but I cannot help the way I feel when my family and fur children are ill and not feeling well and it all piled up on me this week.

Time to put my smart phone to use today and I will try to post from the hospital or I might send word to Made to pass along on here. You don't mind, do you Made?

Thank you everyone for starting my day off with a smile! You truly are the best people in the world!


To all of you here at MMC...

XmasDreams, I am ready to check into that resort! Thanks for sharing!

Christmas-A-Holic, praying moms surgery goes well!
Oh and I am going to try and bake the white chocolate orange cookies today if I have time, I finally got all of the ingredients!

Hello everyone!
We are going to have scattered showers all day, with a high of 65 degrees. I did manage to get a walk in with the dogs earlier before it really started coming down, so thats good.
I am going to have a busy day. My oldest has an appointment this morning with the dermatologist to have a mole checked. I can't seem to stay out of the doctor offices this week. And I am going to visit my father later this afternoon, I'm excited to finally see him.
I need to finish my coffee and get some things done around the house. I let some chores slide last night because I got wrapped up in the Islander game with my hubby.
I hope everyone has a wonderful day!!!
