Christmas Countdown - 2015

[Holiday]

Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

I got a haircut yesterday afternoon, and I told the girl to cut it a little shorter than we usually do. She obviously took my request to heart. Everyone is commenting on how short my hair is...even Nancy! Well, my hair grows quickly, so in a week I'll be back to normal. I kinda like it short!

I have to go to a funeral this morning for my Great Aunt Betty. What a wonderful, selfless lady she was. Most families have that member who can drop everything to take care of another family member in need, and that was Aunt Betty. She and Uncle Charles actually moved in (from Jacksonville) with my grandparents when my grandma was to sick to take care of herself, and they stayed almost a year. Bless your heart, Aunt Betty. Thank you , and we love you!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Awe Brad, I'm sorry to hear about your Great Aunt Betty! She sounds like she was a wonderful woman! May she rest in peace! Keeping you all in my thoughts & prayers!

Good morning,

I head to the "fun house" in a few minutes, having a hard time getting motivated this morning, just have to push through.

I hope you all have a great day.

See you tonight!

Good morning MMC! Happy Hump/Pines Day!



Not much going on around here again today! I got more flowers planted at home last night. I cut a bunch of asparagus again in the garden ~ asparagus overload this year! :wink: I also got a visit from the US Census Bureau. Our address has been chosen to take part in a 30-45 minute survey. OH JOY! Hoping we can do it online, otherwise they will be back in a couple weeks to do it. Gracie's friend Lexi was over last night ~ they had a blast!! My neighbor got some good video of it! Other than that, it was a pretty uneventful night! cheesy



Have a great day everyone!!!

Way to go on your garden!

Joy is right about the U.S. Census Bureau [emoji1]

Glad Gracie had a blast with Lexi!

Good Morning, MMC!!!! It's going to be another cool day here and it looks like it's going to be mostly cloudy with a chance of rain this afternoon. I've been busy trying to get some stuff done around here this morning. So far I've done dishes, taken out trash, I'm on my second load of laundry, and have meatball stew in the crockpot for dinner. Now to start getting ready for the job fair. Looking at the list of whose going to be there, I wonder if the army will let me enlist? LOL!!!! Maybe I can convince one of the 10 schools that they should pay me to come there instead of me paying them. We shall see. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bradmac- Praying for your family this morning.

Thank goodness it's almost lunch time! Might be a little too chilly for walking Gracie...it's only 47º (feels like 44) & windy...and I don't feel like bundling up on May 20th! :lol: I guess I'll decide when I get home!

Good morning everyone!
It is going to be a nice day, partly sunny with temperatures in the mid 60's. Not too much going on here today. I have to run to the doctor this morning for a B12 shot, I cancelled last week when I was sick. And I'm going to do some clothes shopping this afternoon, I need a few things for the warmer weather. Other than that I'll be working on my daily chores. That's about it for me. Hope everyone is well and has a great day!

Have a great day HMG....have fun shopping!

Good Morning, Friends.

Well, mid-week 'Pines Day has come around once again.
Cycling -- ever cycling.

And as those wheels turn, we again direct our attention to the daily numbers:
Days to the Season: 177
Days to Christmas Day: 219

Nineteen days.
That's all that is left until we reach the 200-day Christmas Day Window.
(Not really very far away, is it?)


Warm yesterday and rain threatened for a while, but I saw nothing beyond a very light sprinkle.
Today should be clear, with rain again possible tomorrow.
This morning has awakened us to 68 degrees here in the capital city.


Have a Wonderful Wednesday, Folks. See you this evening at the 'Pines.
(I can almost taste one of Carl's delicious fired twinkies!)

Time is sure flying by....Thanks Crown..have a nice afternoon!

Good afternoon and Happy Wed my Christmas Loving Friends. Well we are in the final stretch of little league.. only 2 more weeks left.

Its hard to believe that today is opening day for the you-pick strawberry fields beacuse it feels more like a fall day today then a spring day. Not that I am complaining mind you I love this kind of weather! We are going early Saturday morning to pick a bunch of strawberries and then my daughter and I will spend the rest of the weekend making and canning strawberry jam. Most will be for our use but some will be used for Christmas gifts!

These cool temps are suppose to stick around for the next several days but then its going to heat up. Not looking forward to the elecric bill this summer.

Well I hope everyone has a great day!!!

Good Afternoon my friends. I could not get on-line last night from home, because my internet was/is still down. I don't know why, I has a suspicion that because we had some really wicked thunderstorms Monday night, may of had something to do with it. And those were wicked storms, the lightning was crashing all around the house and there was a lightening strike right by the house that created a huge power surge in the electric and telephone system. I think the router got fried...

I'm logging in from work so at least I can say hi....
