Christmas Countdown - 2014

[VictoriaLT]

Good morning, Victoria!!

I like both coffee & tea! I drink coffee more often, though. I'm in!!

Happy Saturday!! ️

Yup, I somehow find myself drinking more coffee than tea too, especially lately. Oops!

I love early morning walks, so peaceful and relaxing. Here are a few pictures I took while out

That's beautiful! Thank you for sharing. :]

Today is the anniversary of my dad's home going. It has been 17 years already, I miss him.
Mom and I are going to the cemetery to clean the headstone and plant some flowers.
This is dad with mom and my 2 girls in the spring of 1987 (LittleCS is the one without the hat)

Days like this always touch something in our hearts that make us quite sensitive. Sending you and your mum my best wishes. <3

Good Afternoon everyone

Hope you all have a great weekend.

Have a nice weekend you too!

Oh, great! I actually meant it when I said about coffee/tea club. No joke. :]
Anyone else?

I only learned to drink tea a few years ago. Now it's my go-to if I need a little boost, or if I want to relax. I have a little "tea corner" on the kitchen counter with my tea caddies, sugar, mug, spoon, etc. My favorite is PG Tips with a spoonful of Sugar in the Raw and a little milk. Some of the local supermarkets carry it, but they don't carry the decaf---I have to get it online. It makes good iced tea, too, especially with a couple squirts of lemon juice!

Here's the newest afghan---granny squares! All made with leftovers from other projects.

It's been gray and cloudy much of the day, but now we're getting some sunshine. I'm sitting in the "library," and it's so nice to see the sun, relax, and visit with all of you. We'll probably have a movie evening. Mr. has finished repairs on a comedy (some of the old cement splices were breaking, so he's re-making the splices with splicing tape). We haven't run this one in a while, so it'll be fun to see it again. It may be time to break out the Whirly-Pop and make some popcorn!

So cute, I miss how my cats when they were kittens would just fall asleep doing whatever they were doing.

Good Morning, my Friends.

Back at last!
-- But not for long --

A last minute change of plans.
We are now leaving for the beach later this morning and will return late Monday.
So, alas, I must request another volunteer for tomorrow and Monday mornings.
Short notice, but.....well.....you know how that goes!


Now!
To the business at hand.
A BIG THANKS to 'Star who shone bright this past week as countdown captain while I was away. Great job, my friend!

And speaking of the count.
WOW!
Just look:
Days to the Season: 173
Days to Christmas Day: 215

Can the count really have declined that much while I was away?
Just look how close we are to the 200-day Christmas Day Window and a double-100's count. And that just happens to be our next Milestone!
(It pays to be gone. And then again, it doesn't!)


Well, our weather was spectacular for Florida in May.
Not a single day of rain and the temps were for the most part in the '70's and '80's. Not overly humid, either.
Had a nice trip to visit relatives, some of whom we had not seen in years.
Two of them are over 90 years old.
We are at 59 degrees here currently in the capital city.


Have a Sensational Saturday, Folks.
And I'll see you here Tuesday morning!

Welcome back!!!

&

Have a safe trip!!!

This is the tree in front if my home

Discovered a pair if robins are building a nest in it

It is right outside my living room window so I can watch as the babies grow

Very pretty tree!

My thoughts are with you.
