Good morning!
Feeling tired today, I didn't have a good night of sleep. Molly must have had a belly ache because she woke me up a couple of times to let her out. Of course it had to happen on a night that we had heavy rain and gusty winds. That wasn't fun. The rain is supposed to continue in to late this afternoon.
I thought I wouldn't have to go anywhere today but I have already been to the supermarket this morning. Lets see how many times I have to run out to get something that I forgot to buy!
I plan on cooking, baking and prepping as much as I can today. I also need to clean and make this construction zone look as good as it could possibly look.
I hope everyone is well and has a great day!!!

Well, I've posted a grand total of two times in six days...shame on me!

Been busy wrapping up school for the break, taking care of the baby, and a few others things....

Had the weirdest thing happen today...went to the doctor for my regular checkup for high blood pressure...and he noticed my throat was red. I fee like a million bucks, but they did a throat swab and I have strep throat. So weird...I feel fine.

So I'm on some pretty strong medications. This is the third time I've had it since August, so we got to get something figured out. I'm supposed to go back to see him in ten days and then again in 20.

Baby and wife are snoozing, but I'm wide-awake. The next three days are in my top 10 days of the year, so I better get some rest.

See yall in the morning for coffee....

good thing he caught that , not something you want to pas on to a baby.
When you work around kids you pick up a lot of stuff. Hope it clears up quickly

She is doing well, thank you for asking.
And the shots are getting easier for me to do every week.
How are you Made? Thinking about you!

I miss all my friends here at MMC these days...

It's 4 days till moving day, and the house is a mess!
All my Christmas stuff is in boxes in my living room
(just make me crazy that I can't decorate)

But, I can't wait to get into our new home on Sunday
The Christmas stuff is going up FIRST! :-D

Even though it's chaos here, I'm preparing a Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow.
My turkey goes in the oven early tomorrow morning...
I have invited my parents so we will be 9 people this year.

Looking forward to it - and to watch my favorite movie:
Christmas Vacation tomorrow evening!

Well, I hope you have a FANTASTIC day!!!!!! ♥

praying your move goes smoothly and you get settled quickly!
Glad your little one is doing better.

Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving! Not only that, we're going to the mountains tomorrow! That is, assuming the roads aren't too icey up there.

I'm off work today, planning to clean out my nasty truck for the drive to North Carolina tomorrow. I went by Jim's shop to work on the car this morning, but he's not there yet. I'll go back after lunch.

I missed Rudolph last night! That's what I get for not checking in here after work yesterday.

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Good morning! Busy day ahead ... once I get out of the office (which I hope is early), I want to prep the front room for the Christmas tree, then haul the tree upstairs, check the light strings, replace any dead bulbs, and string the lights on the tree. It's not easy, 'cause I wrap them similar to the way pre-lit trees are done, but the effect is worth it. Hoping to relax a little afterward, 'cause we've been out shopping the past two evenings and getting home just in time to go to bed.

I really enjoy Thanksgiving Eve and Thanksgiving Day and the long weekend! I hope yours is special!

:happy:

last year for the first time I put a lot of clear lights near the trunk of the tree and loved how it looked. I am going to do this again this year.
Hope you have a great thanksgiving! We plan to watch the parade tomorrow morning before heading out for the day.

Hey, made it to the end! Could not answer all the posts because I have to leave for work soon, but I did read them all between jobs around the house.
My Gingerbread bridge is all done and will be delivered this evening.

Day off tomorrow, have to take some boxes for operation Christmas Child to the depot in Cambridge tomorrow and in the evening I will find out if I won anything with my entry.

Have a fantastic day everyone, if I get back in time I will go to the Pines.

Good morning everyone...It's Wednesday and you know what that means...It's Thanksgiving Day Eve (bet you thought I was going to say something else; huh!). It's a cold, windy and rainy morning and it's just now starting to turn over to freezing rain and sleet. At least I'm already at work and not on the road.

I started my thanksgiving day prep for the Turkey last night by going to the grocery store, the turkey is thawed out and will be brined today, the stuffing and other items is prepped, so we're getting there.:happy:

I noticed this year they are not having Miracle on 34th street (1947) on TV, right after the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade...So, I'm going to have to break out the DVD's and put it in, it's sort of a tradition with me. Years past, they used to also have the Wizard of Oz on TV as well, Oh well...I'll do it myself...

Still packing, and looking for houses, we got into a bidding war for another house yesterday and this morning and I believe/ have a feeling that we lost again. It will be the 5th house that we liked and lost because of one thing or another; It's a very disheartening process which can really bring you down. If we don't get this one, then we will have to move twice and that will totally stink... Keep your fingers crossed for me, I need a miracle.

Well, since I'm here at work, I guess I have to start doing some. lol....I'll be checking in here today from time to time...

I am really bummed b/c I have that same tradition!!!! I can watch 34th Street on dvd, but it's just not the same!! I wonder why they took it off. Such a classic & such a tradition I love so much!

GOOD LUCK to you getting a new home very soon!!!!

Bullypup, safe travels!

Cetacea, good to see you!

xmastidings, I hope you got the house! Praying for you and your family!!

Solice, I'm glad your daughter is doing better and that giving the shots is getting easier for you!

Good afternoon, Christmas family!

Camden update: he is home!!! He has to be quarantined for a bit after all he has been through, but my sister told me that he is doing really good!!! Thank you all so very much for the thoughts and prayers!!!

I am wicked sleepy right now so I put on another pot of coffee. When I checked my turkey this morning, it was just starting to get soft so it is looking good that it will be thawed out in time. My brother got a free one at work and he gave it to me - it's huge! There will be lots of leftovers!

Back to work!

Have a MERRY day!!!

 

[Meceka]

Happy Pines Day!!!
