Good morning friends. I hope you all have a great day! I'm traveling for work today, but thankfully it's only a day trip and I'll be back this evening.

See you at the Pines!

It's snowing, again! 32 degrees & high winds. I love winter & all, but I'm also all about equal opportunities for 4 seasons! Spring, please come back!

Happy 'Pines Day, everyone!

We have reached midweek, which can only mean that we will once again gather at the Shispering Pines to celebrate our fantastic tradition of Sweet Tea and Fired Twinkies. Carl says he has quite a deal for us, but he wants me to go ahead with his "count will be lower today than yesterday" prediction before making the announcement.

Days to the Season: 205
Days to Christmas Day: 247

We are flying towards our milestones. I am sure that Crown is quite excited to return and ring them in along with us! Until then, I will continue to announce the decreasing numbers.

The weather isn't looking like the end of April right now. Kim and I went out last night, and it seemed like mid-fall rather than Spring. Brrr! The forecast calls for high 40s today, but the wind will probably make it feel like 10 degrees (f) colder. Brrr, indeed.

Enough with the dreary weather talk. Carl has a big smile on his face and wants me to announce that in honour of Crown's absence, there will be a special on both Sweet Tea and Fired Twinkies. Carl says that if you buy one Sweet Tea, you get two Fired Twinkies FREE!

Oh, and if you get the secret password, you can spin the new "Spring Wheel" to see if you can win a free Sweet Tea, Fired Twinkie, or a Christmas Karaoke song of you choosing (sung by Carl, of course). Just say camel, and try your luck... just don't tell him I told you the password!

Have a wonderful Wednesday workday, everyone. I look forward to seeing you all tonight at the 'Pines, where we can "spin and win plenty of fun!"

Thank you Brent!
Happy Pines Day!!!

Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

My mom is heading to her place in the mountains for a few days with my uncle & his wife. Mom's house is within walking distance of Uncle Eddie's, so it works out well when they can travel together from here. I sure wish we were going, too!

We all went out to eat last night, and I'm still full from that.

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

I spoke to my Mom, and she is doing pretty good. PT went well, but she is in some pain, which is to be expected.

Hopefully, she'll be released from the hospital tomorrow afternoon.

Thank you again for your prayers.

Praying your Mom had a good night & she is released today. Does she get to come home, or does she have to go somewhere for rehab?

LOL!!! I wish it would stop!
Still snowing & windy, temps have dropped to 33 degrees. Brrr =]

Good afternoon everyone! I only have a few minutes, I have some things to do before the game tonight. We're going to leave a little bit early and grab something to eat on the way. I had to share this picture. There was a rainbow over our Coliseum this morning, this is where the Islanders play. The team will be moving to Brooklyn next season which is very sad. How do you move the Islanders off of the Island? They will begin to renovate the Coliseum this summer so everyone is hoping and praying that they will eventually bring the team back home. Anyway, I thought it was a cool picture. Maybe it's good luck! I'll try and pop back in after the game. Hope everyone is well!

Beautiful pic! Hope you had a great time!!

Saw this on a news website: a QUADRUPLE rainbow (four arcs, count 'em). Amazing!

Rainbows galore! Very pretty!

I'm so happy to hear that they are both doing good!
My back isn't as bad but it's still bothering me. I know it's just from straining a muscle so I'm trying not to pick the kids up as much. But it's kind of unavoidable when they're that young. I'm a little bit nervous about increasing my hours this summer. I may have to rethink the that.
Hope you have a wonderful day too!

LOL!!! Thanks!!! It turns out their dad was picking them up for dinner so that was even better!!

Hope you had a great day, Holiday and that you didn't blow away!!!

Nope, I didn't blow away!!! Some of our patio furniture tried too, but I caught it. Lol! Crazy wind!!!

Good evening, friends. Popping in quick to say hi. I ended up working a 12 hour shift last night, so I didn't get to bed until around 11:30 or so this morning. It just seems like I can't get here to get caught up, but hopefully I will soon.

Hope you are all well! I think of you all often and pray for you all daily! God Bless and talk soon! Nite!

Thank you, holiday! Mom is supposed to be released from the hospital today, and then will continue with physical therapy. She is heading home. I talked to her last night, and she seemed to be in good spirits. She is tolerating her pain okay, and has been walking around. My sister actually sent me a video of her walking the halls at the hospital, and she looks darn good ;-) thank you for asking!

It is currently 31° here, with High Winds. It was snowing earlier, but nothing right now. Fingers crossed!

Hope you have a great day!

Well, the NFL schedule is out. It looks as if my family tradition is not happening this year. We were hoping the Packers would be in Green Bay on December 27th, but it appears they are in Arizona that weekend. The awful part is that it was going to be Kim's first Packers/Lambeau Field experience. She has become a massive Packers fan in the past decade. To say that I am disappointed would be an understatement.

What a bummer!! Sorry to hear that for you guys!

Goodnight, friends!
Sleep well [emoji94][emoji287][emoji92]

Good Morning!
Happy Pines Day!
I didn't make it back here last night, the hockey game went to overtime and we got home late. Islanders lost but we're still in it. Series is tied at two, they play again tomorrow night. We had a lot of fun but I have to say it was a rough crowd. Maybe a little too rough for me. I heard more cursing last night than I've heard in all of my 46 years put together. I saw and heard some pretty entertaining stuff! And we were exhausted by the end of the game from the stress of it all, lol. But I'm glad I got to go to a playoff game, it was an experience. Very exciting.
Anyway, not too much going on here today. I have a couple of quick errands to run and lots of laundry to work on. That's about it for me. I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!
