Christmas Countdown - 2013

[HomemakinGirl]

Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!

What a busy (and cold!) weekend we had. Jacob and I got up at daylight Saturday to go hunting, but we didn't see anything. Later that evening, he was scheduled to work with the Junior Chamber of Commerce, manning the popcorn booth at the outdoor "Movie in the Park". They played "Night at the Museum", and it was very neat, but it was 47° by the time the movie was over. Brrrr!

Yesterday afternoon, we were in Statesboro all day with Elizabeth, for her Nutcracker practice. What happened to those days when you just plopped down on the couch and watched a movie?

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

I love that "movie in the park", wish we had something like that here!

Sleep, why is it that it seems (at least with me), that the older I get, the more trouble I have with going to and staying asleep? Mecka, your not alone, I've been dealing with that myself for awhile also...

Maybe it's just me and that I'm internally stressed out, due to the reality of turning 50 in 2 weeks... Oh Brother, where does the time go????

I have been having problems lately too! I have no problem falling asleep, but if I wake up I'm in trouble. I'll toss and turn the rest of the night.

We need to find that waterfall and just sit and watch it all day!!

That would be amazing!!

Enjoy your day!!

Good morning! It sure is Monday! This morning seems to be dragging on forever! I'm sure I won't have time to catch up on everything since Thursday (I was away from this place way too long) - so I'm going to jump in here to wish you all a Merry Day & catch up on what I can!!

We went to Ben Franklin Saturday. My friend bought a dvd with 4 Chrismtas movies & I bought a cd - Christmas Harp Music. We listenend to it on the way home! :grin: And now I have TSO in my car's cd player. LOVE IT!

Last night was the Holiday open house/Ladies night at the hardware store. We had a blast again. Such cool stuff!! Snowmen everywhere!!!

My hubby even went along this year. Another couple came with us too & we met my sister there. Fun time!!

Hope you all had a great weekend!!!

Sounds like you had a fun weekend! Love the pictures!!!

I am just sitting here, having coffee and looking at my Through The Country Door catalog...such beautiful & festive things!! Dangerous, too Especially when they give you a line of credit. But I must be good.

Hope you're all having a lovely morning!!

Good Morning MMC!!!!! It's going to be a beautiful day here with a high in the low 60's. Then tomorrow the rain is supposed to start. Not much going on here today. I have a few things that I want to get done but nothing to exciting. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!

I hope you have a great day too :-D

Thanks, girl!!

Did you buy anything at the open house?!

I want one of those beautiful flocked trees!! =)

 

[HomemakinGirl]

Good morning!
It is going to be mostly sunny today with a high of 61 degrees.
So far I have walked the dogs and started laundry. I changed all of the sheets this morning so I have extra laundry to do. I also started dinner in the crock pot. I just cut up a ton of vegetables for Minestrone soup. I will be heading out to run a few errands soon. I need to stop at Target and Michaels. Not too much else going on. Hopefully nothing will come up and I will have a quiet afternoon.
I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!!!

 

[HomemakinGirl]

Thanks, friend!!

You, too!!

How is Maggie doing?

:smile:

She's hanging in there. Some days are better than others. I spoke with the veterinarian again and now they are diagnosing her with COPD. I didn't even realize dogs get that. I just hope she doesn't get worse!
Thank you so much for asking!

A really nice weekend is in the books. Wishing everyone a wonderful week!

I agree, it was a nice weekend in the books! I hope you have a marvelous week!

Good Morning MMC Gang!

I hope you all had a great weekend! Mine was very quiet, but after the busy week I really enjoyed it.

Good morning, Cetacea! I am glad that you enjoyed your weekend! I hope you have a wonderful week!

Good morning, MMC!

I did not sleep very well and have been up since 3:08. On the plus side I did get some work done already this morning! Yesterday I spent the majority of my time trying to fix something in the house - not so fun, but a necessary job. Today I get to run errands - there are a few things I need to pick up for storage purposes and I need to drop some books off at the library. I love that place! Then if time permits, I am off to Bronner's with my cousin. She has been having a rough time of late and being in that store makes her feel good. Makes me feel good, too! When I get back home there will be a pile of chores waiting for me. It will be good to work off the cupcake at I have been hearing calling my name since this trip has been planned.

Have a most MERRY day!!!

Good morning, Meceka! I am sorry that you didn't sleep well. I hate when that happens. I am glad that you had a productive morning so far! I wish we had a good library around here - I'm such a bookworm. Try to relax and have fun - chores can wait!! Enjoy the cupcake!

Good morning all. Hope you have a great Monday. It rolled around too quickly for my tastes and I'm none too thrilled about it.

I'm off on Halloween so I'm really counting down the days. Have a great day everyone!

Good morning, Ryan! I hope you have an excellent Monday as well. That's great that you're off on Halloween! Hope you enjoy!

Good morning, Brad! It sounds like a fun weekend! Sorry that hunting didn't work out for you. The movie night sounds fun but very chilly! It sounds like you need one of those days of plopping on the couch! Have a great week.

Good morning, friends!!

Have a blessed day!!

Good morning, Made! How is your foot? That does sound like a beautiful day with nice temperatures! Have a wonderful day!

Good morning, Holiday! If you took the time to catch up you'd just get equally behind again, LOL! We have all been talking a lot! It's nice to see you back. Glad you got to enjoy a Christmas CD! The event at the hardware store sounds like so much fun! I am glad you enjoyed it! I hope you have a wonderful week!

Good morning, HMG! Today sounds like a nice day there! You're getting so much done so far! Minestrone sounds delicious. I love Target but for some reason I can never find anything at Michaels. I hear that it is a hit or miss and I feel like it's always a miss when I come through LOL! I hope you have a wonderful day!!

 

[jennifer91]

Good morning, everyone! Glad to see that not everyone is dragging on this Monday!

I don't have much of anything planned for the day. I completed my assignment this morning and turned everything in. We ordered hoagies for dinner and they should be showing up later on in the day. That means that my mom and I have some time to go to the mall and do some shopping! I should be saving for Christmas but I always find something that I like and end up buying it.....such as a pair of boots. /horribleshopper

I am looking forward to relaxing this evening! If anyone needs a good show to watch, you have to try the Blacklist. It's awesome!

Well...I'm off to straighten my hair. My hair is so thick so that'll take a good hour lol. See ya soon!

 

[xmastidings]

Advil PM is my friend. :wink:

You're about 8 months ahead of me, but I think I'll stick to 49 for a few more years.

I've never tried that, I'll have to get it a shot, Thanks! I've got a presciption for some ambian (and take it only on extreme cases), because I hear about the dangers that exist when taking that med for so long...

Yea, why is it that the number 50 is a reality that we would really like to prolong before hitting it, lol....

Thank you so much for asking!

I hope today is a good day for the little sweetie, bless her heart.
I will keep her in my prayers!

Now that they have a diagnosis, will they adjust her medication?

((Hugs)) to you both!!

I agree, it was a nice weekend in the books! I hope you have a marvelous week!



Good morning, Cetacea! I am glad that you enjoyed your weekend! I hope you have a wonderful week!

Thank you, Jennifer!!

Har is doing great, thanks for asking!! She is napping next to me right now =)

I just looked at the forecast and they are calling for non-stop rain from Wednesday night until Thursday night. That means it'll be a monsoon for Trick or Treat and we'll probably have no kids.

Boo

We made up goodie bags and everything!

That's a bummer!!

But, meteorologists are sometimes wrong..
I'm praying that they are this time!!

It sounds like you guys went all out!

Thinking of you, HMG. We love our furbabies so much, and it is hard for us to see them hurt or sick. Praying for healing for your furbaby and emotional and physical strength for you.
