Christmas Countdown - 2013

Nothing better than watching Charlie Brown by the glow of the Christmas tree with a glass of warm Apple cider and a piece of pumpkin roll.

Good morning from Stockholm, Sweden!

Time to continue the christmas shopping after work today - and find some proper decorations to put up. My secretary just swung by with a Christmas star to hang from my office window, which I will get to in a second... just another cup of coffee

First time I'm able to check in today! I decorated the big tree and the little tree today, and received our first Christmas card of the year. Our packages have all been mailed, but I still have some cards to write. I took today off for an extra-long Thanksgiving weekend, and it's still not long enough---I'm not ready to go back to work tomorrow. Well, I have this evening yet to indulge in Christmas! And I can listen to the new podcast on the drive in tomorrow.

Getting a craving for hot cocoa.

It looks like a super exciting day for you. Oh, and a craving for hot cocoa is a good thing to finish your day. Hope you are warm and cozy! ;]

Snow Thursday into Friday!!! They aren't saying totals yet on the news but on facebook they said 3 to 5 inches.

Yay for you guys! I hope the snow will stay rather than melting instantly.

Hi everyone! I've missed you all the past couple of weeks. Things have been super busy but they finally slowed down as of today. I attended my last college class ever this evening. I technically have two weeks of class left but all that I have to do is critique a peer's work this week, tidy up my paper the next week, and then I'm done!

My parents are fine with me relaxing and enjoying Christmas as I always have on college break. I don't have to start looking for a job until after the New Year! I'm not looking forward to all of the interviewing and applying!

I am going to try to do some catching up but that should be almost impossible with how much I've missed!!

Congratulations on you finishing your degree! What a huge and important achievement of your life. :] Enjoy upcoming Season at its most!

Winter wonderland!!! ️

Definitely a wonderland! Very beautiful! <3

Good morning to you too! Stockholm is such a beautiful city. Been there once. I bet it's even more stunning in winter and with Holiday lights up. ^^

Good morning, and have a nice day everyone!

Good Morning Guys! I dislike that I am hardly on here these days especially this time of the year!!!!!!!! My toddler is a handful at the moment and together with housework, Christmas prep, work and a cold it leaves me with very little time or no time.

I hope everyone's Christmas prep is coming along nicely. I have to admit I have not been having enough down time to take it all in.......that needs to change. After all, I promised myself a Christmas break of at least 20mins everyday didn't I !!

Nice to see new faces on here and some returning ones too!

Have a great day!

Good evening,

I have been a little scarce around here lately, I make it in daily but only for short periods of time.
I finished reading "A Christmas Carol" today, it was the first time I ever read it. I enjoyed it, and now I can start reading "Jacob T. Marley" by R. William Bennett. One of those "alternate history" novels, I have always liked those books.

Day off tomorrow, I need it because I feel like I am coming down with something.


Good night, everyone.

Praying that you feel better, enjoy your day off!

Sudden case of tummy upset. Time for rest.

I hope you feel better too Seawaters!

14 school days left...14 more days....

Hope things are great way! I'm as excited as I can be. I was told what my contributions are supposed to be to the Family Christmas Meal and I'm about to sit down and make out my grocery list. I always cook several things during the break so the family can come eat or we can take food to Mom's so we can all hang out and this year will be no different.

Here in the South, people tend to get a tad bit excited when the weatherman mentions snow, ice, sleet, etc. While we get nowhere near as much as you do up North, it doesn't take much to shut things down here because our cities, county governments don't spend money on snow equipment. The only things we have to combat bad weather is they will go around the night before weather and throw some salt and dirt out on bridges.

Well, the weatherman is stirring people up. They say we are going to get a good amount of freezing rain, which is bad news for power lines and tree limbs. We are seriously debating going to get a generator so that we are prepared for power outages now that we have a little one. Anybody out there have one or recommend a certain type? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Well, it's time to head to bed. hope y'all have a great day tomorrow! See ya then!

I too am preparing for the family get together, ours is a pot luck so it does not matter what you bring as long as you bring something! So I will look in my freezer and see what I have to cook up. Gift exchange is super easy, just bring a wrapped item, we draw numbers, you pick one and if you do not like it, you can switch with someone else, gets kind of wild with 30 people involved.
My brother has a generator, it is a Campion heavy duty, they have had it for several years and he says it has never given him any trouble.

***** CHRISTMAS SEASON DAY 21 *****



Good Morning!

Well, there you have it.
After today, we will have completed three weeks of Christmas Season 2013.
Can you believe it?
(Neither can I!)

Days to Christmas Day: 22 (Three weeks from tomorrow!)
(My goodness. That's unbelievable, too!)

It continues to get warmer day by day at a slow rate.
This should continue on to the weekend before cold weather returns to remind us of just what month we are in. (As if we needed a reminder!)
We have 35 degrees here, currently.

Have a Terrific Tuesday, Friends!

I love the photo SF. The snow looks like it is really coming down in the picture and sticking everything; It looks really nice. :wink: That's one thing I hope we get this year, is some snow. It's been a bust for us for just about two years now around this area...
