Christmas Countdown - 2014

[MerryCarey]

And here's Miss Grace - she went for a visit to my sisters yesterday afternoon.


She was whooped last night!


(I just noticed it looks like she's been drinking Bud Light! LOLOL! She loves that cup! Has been playing with it since St. Paddy's Day! Notice all her other toys in the background that get drug out every single night as well! Dogs! : -)

Gracie is so perfectly cute, in some photos she looks almost like a plush toy dog! It's fun watching her grow up with you.

 

[Bradmac]

She beautiful, but...where are her eyes?!? :-D

 

[Holiday]

There was a time when I loved that cup, too!

:lol:

 

[MerryCarey]

Oooh, it's cold in the office today! I don't know what the contractors are messing with, but I hope it gets back to normal soon.
:cold:

Still expecting snow overnight into tomorrow morning, but we shouldn't get more than a couple inches here. The wind will be fierce, though. Most everybody is hoping this will be the last snowstorm of this winter. Including me.

Lol! I know Brad! She goes for her 1st grooming next week Wednesday! I told the groomer I don't want her cut, just a shampoo, trim her eyes, pads & nails. If any of her brown fuzziness gets cut off, I will not be a happy girl! :-?

I hope it warms up in the office soon! I texted my brother in Cape Cod last night - told him to get ready 8-12" coming his way! He said he hopes not - he put his snowblower away already. Lol! I hope none of you get as much as predicted! And that wind sounds so wicked! Stay safe & warm Merry!

Good morning!
I'm having my coffee, watching the latest weather report. It looks like this storm is going to be minor for my area, they are still only predicting about 3 inches of snow. It's cold out there, we have temperatures in the mid teens this morning which is a new record low for this time of the year. We should be up to the 50's by next weekend though, so I'm looking forward to that.
I have a list of things I need from the supermarket, I'm going to try and get there early and beat the crowd. I mentioned a while ago that one of our smaller local supermarkets closed down and now I have to go to a Super Stop & Shop. I really miss the store that closed and I especially miss the employees, they were all so kind. Stop & Shop is always very crowded, I can't stand it.
Anyway, not too much else going. I'll just be working on some chores around the house.
I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!!!

I'm looking forward to warmer weather too HMG! Yesterday morning was 13º, we had 20º this morning, but tomorrow morning is back down to 14º! Enough already! I totally understand what you mean about the super stop & shop places. They make me crazy. We have a couple small IGA's I like to go too. I pay a little more, but it's much more enjoyable! I hope your trip is uneventful! Have a good day. Hope Maggie is doing well!

Good Morning, Everyone.

Tomorrow.
Banner Day.
Milestone Day.
But you must be present to ''win".

Days to the Season: 233
Days to Christmas Day: 275

And of course, by now you must be aware that the above-mentioned Milestone is none other than the one-quarter mark to Christmas Day 2014!


The weather has take a turn backwards and we are at 38 degrees right now with sub-freezing temps and possible frozen precipitation just ahead.
Winter's last gasp?
I hope so, as I'm quite ready for Spring!

Have a Terrific Tuesday, Folks!

I really hope you are right about "winters last gasp!" :smile: Have a great day Crown!

Good idea for carrying a little bit of Christmas with you. :] I use to get excited about new glasses too!

these are the first new glasses I have had in 8 years, could never afford the exam or the price of the frames and lens. Where I work now I have benefits so it was finally affordable.

Good Tuesday morning, my Christmas friends!

My mom just called from her place in the NC Smoky Mountains (Pretty close to Mgramsey) and said they got 4" of snow last night. I'm so jealous I won't get to see any snow this year. I know some of you are tired of it by now, but I'd love to see just a little!

I have another meeting with the county commissioners tonight. I'll be glad when this Fire Dept. issue is finished. I had people stopping me in the restaurant yesterday asking about it. I even had folks stopping me Saturday while I was cutting grass. Calgon! Take me awayyyyyy!

Dinner with clients tomorrow night, though. Fancy supper!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

If you go to Cape Cod quick, it sounds like you'll get to see snow!!! : Jump on the lear!
I hope tonight's meeting goes better than the others! Good luck!

Thank you. Although I don't think the reason is being far away from family. It was my own decision to leave Lithuania and I don't feel sorry for it. Instead, I believe there must be something else which I am fully aware of.

Good afternoon everyone! Happy Rudolph day too! :# It's a perfect excuse to watch a Holiday movie and listen some Christmas music which is exactly what I am doing right now. ^^

Thanks to all for your kind words of support. They truly mean a world to me. <3

I've just had my viva (oral assessment discussing my essay with my tutor). I haven't received my grade yet but it seems to be the highest one I have received this semester. It surprised me actually because I find the subject to be the most complicated of all I'm doing. Strange, isn't it?

I hope everyone is having a nice day and will be able to enjoy something-Christmas too. :]

Sending hugs your way! Sounds like you did great on the essay! Congrats! Enjoy the Christmas music! Have a great day!

Congrats on doing so well on your essay!

When I was younger and worked until after midnight, Super Stop & Shop was my best friend. I would go there often and pick up my dinner, which usually consisted of a frozen pizza and bag of salad. Now we rarely go there because it is too far away, and the most expensive grocery store around. cheesy I miss those late nights of frozen pizza and salad sometimes.

Good morning! Happy Rudolph Day! Anyone watching something Christmassy today? Maybe tonight I will get a chance - we'll see. They are calling for snow today, so would be a great day to watch Christmas!



Hope you all had a great weekend. Our soup sampling was a hit. Everything was so good! Saturday I made 6 pie crusts - made fresh strawberry pie with 2 of them & froze the other 4! Now I'm ready for fresh berry/pie season! We grilled out last night - green onion brats & baked taters on the grill. OMG - so good! Can you tell I'm getting spring fever?? Lol! Really bad spring fever!!

We got a few inches of snow also. The roads are mostly clear but the mountains are beautiful. I have really enjoyed this winter but would always like a little more snow.

[snowflake22]

3 days in a row to make it on here and actually read and respond to a few post!

I am sitting here drinking coffee out of my Santa mug. I have yet to put my Christmas mugs away but it's all good, it's Rudolph Day!

I hope you all have a Merry Day!

Hope you have a Merry day too, CAH!

Nice choice! I like them a lot!
