Good Friday the 13th, my Christmas friends!

My mom is a tall but slender woman of 70, so imagine this: She just killed her second rattlesnake this week! She killed one a few day ago next to her house...with a shotgun! Yesterday, she killed one at her neighbor's house...with a shotgun! Mom's getting pretty handy with a gun HAHA! Hopefully, we'll start getting some cooler weather soon, and the snakes will hole-up for the winter.

I cut grass till dark yesterday afternoon, but it paid off. I wouldn't have been surprised if the neighbors had stopped by to thank me for cleaning up my yard. LOL

Tonight we're all going back to Statesboro (about 30 miles from here) where the nearest movie theater is located. Jacob's buddies have all decided they are big and bad enough to watch a scary movie at the theater, so they all dared each other to go watch Insidious 2. I guess I'll wake up in the morning to find a 6 foot tall 16 year-old in my bed. :lol:

We're going to try out the new "gourmet pizza" place while he's at the movie.

I hope y'all have a great day!

way to go mom!

I am surprised out neighbors are not complaining about our yard, I know I am.

Have some of the pizza shipped here please, I do not feel like cooking tonight!

I had a Louanne moment on the way to work this morning. For a few miles I was behind a Polar Beverages delivery truck, with a big, beautiful polar bear looking straight at me from the back panel.

I stayed up a little too late last night after a tiring day yesterday, so I'm not at full strength just now. Hoping the day doesn't demand too much! It's been a busy week at the office, and I have a few errands to run this evening. I would like it to be a lazy weekend (and I would like it to get here quickly), but you never know until it happens!

I love those moments!
hope you get a relaxing weekend!

Good morning! TGIF!! Friday the 13th! It is a darn chilly 55º this morning. The wind makes it feel like 45º!! :cold: That was a drastic change from 99º two days ago!!! It would be an awesome night for a big kettle of soup!!!

We had a great time last night. I am sleepy today - coudln't believe it when my alarm went off this morning. My friends kept me out way too late last night! :lol: A nap might be in order when I get off work at noon! Maybe a scary movie & a nap?! But I'm really in the mood to cook/bake....and put up fall decorations!! We'll see!!!

I hope you are all having a GREAT day!!!!

Starting to get my desk set up. The frames I have all my pictures of the kids in broke so we are getting new ones. In the mean time Anna drew me a picture of herself so I'd have one! :)

And Mgramsey, that's a mini statue of the Duke!

Hey everyone!

I don't know how I missed this, but apparently the Barenaked Ladies are playing three Christmas shows in Ottawa on Dec 12-14. Hits and Holidays Songs. I'd imagine they will be playing a few more of their Christmas classics than hits. Anyway, Kim and I just found out today and purchased balcony seats to see BNL perform at the National Arts Centre here. It should be a great time! Very excited!

I have wanted to see BNL live since I was about six years old when their debut album Gordon was released in Canada and the song Enid was a number one hit... at least it was in Canada. Of course, that longing increased even more with the release of Barenaked for the Holidays. And now, I'll finally be seeing them live! Very excited. The Season is only two months away and BNL is three. Can't wait!

so cool, that would be nice to go too. They were here in Stratford for a season at the festival, cannot recall when that was, but I know my daughters were very excited about it.

Happy Friday! We finally have a beautiful weekend in the 60s. We got a new fire pit last night and we will be using it this weekend. We also go new furniture yesterday!! It wouldn't be that exciting except my husband moved our old furniture to the basement for the kids and then went to buy the new to find out it had to come from another state and wouldn't be delivered until Sept. 12th. We have been sitting on camping chairs and a blow up air mattress for almost 3 weeks. It was so nice to come home from work yesterday and sit on a couch. We have a weekend of football games, horse riding lessons, yard work, and hopefully a little bit of relaxing before I have to go back to work again on Monday.

sitting here catching up, sipping on hot chocolate wishing I had a candy cane to go with it. I am cold, trying to warm up. Had to close the doors and windows, such a chilly wind right now.
Penny must be cold too, just wants to snuggle right now.
Told my son we cannot turn furnace on until November! LOL,
 
When you have time (LOL!!!) tell us the names of your courses. What kind of homework do you have?

Just got in from covering some of the garden plants with sheets to keep the frost off of them should there be a frost in the morning - it is rather chilly out there! I have a few things to gather up and tag for the store tomorrow (working most of the day - fun!!!) and then I am going to relax and try to finish the book I am reading. I am near the end and it is getting really good (and I thought it pretty good to begin with!).

Take care and be MERRY!!!

What are you reading? Sounds wonderful!!

I just love curling up with a good book, especially in the Fall or Winter, when you grab a favorite blanket & just escape.
