Christmas Countdown - 2015

[HomemakinGirl]

Good Morning MMC !!

going to be a very wet day here. Have to drive over to Kitchener to pick up new tires for my van and then to my brothers place to drop them off. I can hardly wait to get my van, it is taking much longer than expected, for now I get to use my nephews truck which is great, but I would really like my own wheels.

have a fantastically wonderful day everyone!

Good Morning Star!
Stay dry, be safe and have a wonderful day!

Good Morning, Everybody!

Another day dawns.
Another step closer to Christmas.

And indeed, we do but turn another page:
Days to the Season: 218
Days to Christmas Day: 260

And moving right along, we now find ourselves barely over 2 1/2 weeks away from the 200-day Season Window and under 2 1/2 weeks to the 1/3 Christmas Day Milestone, as our dual markers quickly approach.


Rain overnight yesterday (with a thunderstorm last night) but it was clear during the daylight hours (well, as clear as it can be with pollen everywhere) for the remainder of the day.
Today has started off at 59 degrees, with the promise of a (hopefully) drier day.


Have a Thrilling Thursday, as you contemplate the fact that tomorrow will once again be Weekend Eve!

Good Morning and Happy Thursday Crown!
Thank you, hope you have a great day!

Good Morning!
It's going to be cloudy today with a chance of showers, temperatures in the mid 40's. It's supposed to be sunny and 60 degrees by Saturday!
Not too much going on here today, I'm working on some laundry right now. I have a lot of ironing to do. Not my favorite chore. I'll have to put some Christmas music on to make it more enjoyable! Just got dinner started in the crockpot, we're having french dip sandwiches tonight. I'm heading out soon to pick up some fresh rolls and I also have to stop at Rite Aid for a few things. That's about it for me. I hope everyone is well and has wonderful day!

Hey there! How's everyone doing tonight? I'm just getting back from the hospital. First, I went, had this aching tooth looked at (and that's all he did to) and I need to have a re-root canal of a back tooth that I had a root canal done on, around ten years ago. That's happening tomorrow morning at 10:30.

Now, Vicki, I left the dentist office and went straight to the hospital to relieve the wife so she can come home and get some sleep. The surgeon came in tonight and checked on her, and he's keeping her there overnight for continued observation. He's now leaning to not doing surgery, because he stated that her appendix may only be a little infected and that he's waiting to see how the antibiotics thru an IV will do.... Her temperature has come down and her pain has subsided some but she is still running a low grade fever even with the antibiotics in her. It's a wait and see sort of thing now..... Hopefully, they will have more time to work on her and knock that fever out completely, so she can come home tomorrow.

Well, I'm going to enjoy my dinner (peanut butter and graham crackers), while catching up on the posts from today....

Thanks for the update. Hang in there and get some sleep if you can; you certainly have a lot on your plate just now. You'll feel a bit better once the tooth is taken care of. It takes a lot of energy to fight the pain from a tooth that needs root work.

Goodnight everyone, see you in the morning!

Oh! We had that same ornament when I was little ... it's a Shiny Brite. I think ours was blue. I wish I had those boxes of Shiny Brite ornaments today! I only have one box of the Radko reproductions.

A gray, chilly, wet day here. Must keep alert for something that will brighten it up.

These gray like kind of weather related days, reminds me of the type of weather, one would see in a TV show on BBC like Dr. Who, Sherlock Holmes, etc....

Good Morning, MMC!!!!! It's going to be a yucky day here with storms just freight training over us most of the day. We've already had several overnight and it looks like another big cell is getting ready to hit us here shortly. So my plan is to pretty much just stay home and work around the apartment today. Other than that, nothing really going on here. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!

We need an alternative to Lovemas ..... Start researching.

Here's a couple of ideas for Lovemas to be moved to:

A Muppets Christmas special, every year!
Victoria Secrets Special!
A QVC Christmas sale special....


any more ideas????

Well, I'm off to have my teeth drilled into, needles in my gums, drool being sucked out, metal pieces shoved in my mouth to open it into a very abnormal position, oh the fun that some of us get to enjoy......NOT!!!!

Dad is in recovery. Mom said they told her everything looked fine. That's all we know right now. He will be staying overnight. I'll update when I know more. Thanks for the continued thoughts & prayers.

So glad it went well!! Continued prayers. Hope he is having a good day today! xx

Tornadoes to the north. Tornadoes to the south. Just as long as they stay away from me and in the rural areas where there's not a lot of people.

Yikes! Hope everyone stayed safe!!!

Poor Gracie is right!!! I always feel so bad for our animals at this time of year - storms and fireworks are the worst for them. [emoji17]

Oh ya - especially fireworks!! Eeek! We had the tv on for Miss Gracie yesterday to drown out the noise. She didn't eat until last night - I'm assuming the storms had her in a tizzy while we were at work. She is getting better with them though!
Have a great day sugar!

I hope your root canal goes well this morning & that Vicki is doing better!!! Sorry the PB & crackers bothered your tooth. OUCH! Hopefully it's all better soon! Take care!

We are expecting snow tonight, they have issued a winter weather advisory for us.

Stop It!!! :-o

We were talking to LC about his homework the other day and how important it is to do it and get good grades to help get a good job later on in life. We talked about how when he gets married and has kids that you will need that job to help pay for things.

His response was priceless:

"I am never getting married, because my wife would expect me to get a job."

He is so unintentionally funny, my wife says we should start a book of his "-isms"

I hope you all had a great day, see you tomorrow.

Goodnight, everyone.

LOL!!!!! That is great!!!

I hope you are feeling even better this morning and that work isn't nearly as bad today!!!! Have a great day, Xmas!!!!

Good Morning, friends~

I was able to fall back asleep for a few hours, thank God. Still sleepy, though. So I'm making some extra strong coffee this morning =]

Hope you're sleeping well.

Thinking of you all.

Happy Friday Eve!

Wishing you as blessed day!

Enjoy!!

Good evening,

A pretty lousy night at work.

I made it through the day, I am feeling better than I was this morning, but my belly still feels like it is doing backflips.

The morning will be here way too soon.

I watched my Bruins lose their game tonight, I am worried they may not make the playoffs this year. Only 2 more games to go and they are barely clinging to a seed.

We were talking to LC about his homework the other day and how important it is to do it and get good grades to help get a good job later on in life. We talked about how when he gets married and has kids that you will need that job to help pay for things.

LOVE the LC comment! So funny! So smart! cheesy Hope you are feeling better today! Have a good day!
