I can't stay long, but I wanted to say "hey!" and let you know I'm still here. The crazy doctor hasn't called with Nancy's results yet, and she is going bonkers with anticipation. Hopefully today...

I hope you hear good news, and soon.

Thanks! We have been covering it in lights at Christmas time for the past couple of years and it looks so pretty!

Do you have a picture of it all lit up? I can imagine it's a beautiful sight!

It was so cold here today....not as cold as a couple of weeks ago, but we had wind gusts from 25-40 miles out of the north....brrrrrrr!!!

Wind has died down tonight. Going to be another blustery day tomorrow and even colder.

So happy Dr. Wifey made chili this week....perfect timing!

Off to bed. Y'all have a good night.

Stay safe and keep warm ballcoach!

My niece in Seattle received "The Shining Star" award tonight at the school board meeting. They pick one kid per school to get it.

That's her teacher in the picture.

Congratulations to your niece, that is awesome!

Good Morning MMC!!!! It's going to be a cold day here with a high around 18 degrees predicted. Right now we are sitting at 2 degrees after a low of -8. Not to much going on here today. Just have laundry going and I need to get back to my cleaning and organizing. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!

In the end we only got a few inches of snow. The roads were nearly bare this morning, so I drove in to the office. South of us, though, is a different story---they got 15 inches and it's still falling there. So several of my co-workers are working from home. (I wondered if I could get away with staying home and working from there, but I figured I should be good and come to the office since it's safe to do so.) It's kind of an odd day here.

That is beautiful!! How fantastic that it is still flourishing! Hope you are coping through the cold and the snow. How is Maggie ? The cold must make her cough worse I imagine? Hope you had a good night's rest, have a great day today HMG.

Thanks Festive!
Maggie is hanging in there. The frigid temperatures are definitely not helping. It's 5 degrees this morning, feels -15. Way too cold for us!

Merry Morning! Happy Pine's Day!

It seems a lot of you are having heavy snowfall. Still no snow here. It has actually been a very mild winter so far.

Have a wonderful day everyone whatever you get up to. I have a few things I need to get through but I'll see you all later!

Happy Pines Day to you Festive, I hope you have a wonderful day!

Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

What a hectic week it's been, and it ain't over yet! I didn't even get a chance to post at all yesterday.

I can't stay long, but I wanted to say "hey!" and let you know I'm still here. The crazy doctor hasn't called with Nancy's results yet, and she is going bonkers with anticipation. Hopefully today...

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Praying you get the results today.

Good Morning, Mid-Week Friends and 'Pines Patrons!

Yep.
It is once again time to pay a visit to that crazy camel (if we dare) to see what's up as January begins to wind down.

The count:
Days to the Season: 295
Days to Christmas Day: 337

Milestone #2, the 1/4 Season Milestone, is just three weeks from today!
Wowzers! Can we really be so close to a quarter of the way back to our coveted and adored Christmas Season?
The count chart says yes!

Cold. Rain. Snow. Wind. Nasty.
That was our weather for last night.
At least today will see sunny skies, albeit with low temps.
We have started mid week at a cold 24 degrees here in the capital city with a light dusting of snow on the ground.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday, Everyone!
(And yes Carl, a Happy Hump Day too.)

See you at the 'Pines!

Well, I kinda wanted a little more so I could work from home today! :wink: But I'm grateful we didn't get the worst of it up our way.

We ended up getting about 13 inches.
I love it, it really is beautiful but now I'll complain about driving in it. That's the only part I don't like!
