I'm hoping so too!!!! The last storm they said we would get 2.5 inches here in the city and we ended up getting 7. So I hope that trend doesn't continue!!!! 8 to 13 is more than enough!!!

Wow, they really missed on that forecast! Yes, I would say that 8 - 13 is way more than enough! If you have to do any shoveling tonight/tomorrow, be careful!

Good evening,

Another busy day here at MMC I see, that is so awesome.

We made it through the night without running out of oil, I couldn't sleep well last night worrying about that. It dropped to -17*f last night, I could feel the cold air radiating through the walls. Our oil delivery came today so one less thing to worry about.
We went to the mall and I checked out the remaining Christmas stuff, Target had everything at 90% off, but almost all of it was broken and the good stuff was gone. I was lucky enough to find a set of Christmas Vacation pint glasses for $1.99, I couldn't turn that down. Hobby Lobby was 80% off, Hallmark was 40% off. I was good and didn't buy anything, there were a few things but nothing I had to have.

Looking forward to the Bengals game tomorrow.

Have a great night.

That does sound good!!!

I'm going to have some buffalo chicken dip, as soon as I get DS to bed. He'll want to eat chips and some of my dip too. I hope this trend doesn't continue. This way to late for him to be up!

I found some stuff at walmart earlier. They were 75% off. So i picked up some gift boxes, some stocking stuffers for next year, and a bunch of candy!!! LOL!!!

I also found a small tree at walgreen's that's base is a Santa Boot.

Goodnight!!!!

:lol: Yes, I know he'll get a long great with you. I'm afraid he's going to be like both of us, be able to pull all-nighters and be work nights!

I'm not worried about the snow as much as the -20 degree temps on monday and tuesday.

I'm a little sad. I'll be taking down the tree tomorrow, so this is the last time for a while that I can see how beautiful it looks all lit up at night while catching up with your posts. I should think of it this way: seeing it again will be something to look forward to as 2014 draws on. Every year I wonder if it will look as nice as it did the year before, and somehow, every year, it looks even nicer. That sounds like bragging, but I don't mean it that way … I think pure Christmas grace makes that happen.

Good night, everyone.

Good night, lovely tree, until next Christmastime.

I forgot to mention that we found a nutcracker lamp for 60% off at Christmas Tree Shops. We bought it for LC's room, he loves it!!!! It looks very cute in his room with all of his other nutcrackers.

Thank you! I hope the -20 is with the wind chill taken into account! Stay warm!!!
