Christmas Countdown - 2015

[Bradmac]

Good Sunday afternoon, my Christmas friends!

I just had wonderful, belly-bustin' dinner here at mom's! I was planning to shoot my 9mm today, but it's just too hot outside to enjoy it. I'm sitting here with Elizabeth watching Matilda. It's funny!

We're going to a low country boil at Bernie & Hilda's this evening. More yum!

I hope y'all have a great day!

I think the pool may need to be vacuumed again, too.

Good evening,
Once again having trouble keeping the eyes open, the new schedule has really been tough to adjust to.
Work was just okay, better than bad at least.
We will be heading to Granby, CT tomorrow for the family reunion.

Goodnight, everyone.

Hope you can soon readjusted to the schedule, friend. (((hugs))) Hope you and your family have safe trip today and great time!

I hope that's code for swimming, too!

I'm really getting tired of having to call Salma Hayek every night and telling her that it's just not going to happen so please stop dreaming of me!!

LOL - love it!

Hope your having a great Sunday, DoubleA!

Good morning, MMC! I'm enjoying my weekend, and I hope you are, too. I'm a bit tired this morning, but feeling good. Not much going on here today-just a typical Sunday. More cleaning and getting ready for the workweek. I think snowflake22 inspired me, though--I'm going to put on a fall candle while I do it all!

Good afternoon, DoYourHearWhatIHear! Hope you've found some energy and you're having a great day!

Good Morning MMC !

Lovely morning here, already was out for a walk, fed the mosquitoes.
Church in a couple of hours and when I get home have to finish decorating this cake.
Until then I am going to just relax enjoying the coolness of the morning.

Good afternoon, Star! Hope you were able to get the cake finished! Hope you're having a great day!

Good morning MMC!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend. So far my Sunday morning has been quiet, I'm hiding from my youngest. If she senses that I'm awake then she'll come in here with non stop chatter about our trip and the events of today and mummy just isn't ready for that just yet.

We have church in a few hours and later this evening we'll go back for evening
service and a farewell dinner for families
relocating. should be a very nice Sunday.

I will check back with you all to see what everyone is up to today.

Good afternoon, Ladybugkisses! Enjoy the farewell dinner tonight!

Good morning!
Happy Sunday!
Not too much going on here today, I'm just relaxing and having my coffee. I'm going to take a ride to Trader Joe's later this morning. Other than that I'll be working on a few chores around the house. Should be a relaxing day overall. We're grilling burgers and hot dogs for lunch and eating out by the pool, it's going to be a beautiful day. My parents are coming for dinner, I'm making baked ziti and sausage & peppers. They've been at their place in Pennsylvania for a while so I'm looking forward to seeing them. That's about it for me.
Hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!

Good afternoon, HMG! Sounds like a very relaxing day! Enjoy dinner and the time with your parents!

Happy Sunday everyone. Hopefully your weekend is going well.

Happy Sunday to you, 'Tis! Hope you've had a nice weekend as well!

Good Morning, Everyone!

I'm pleased, surprised, and shocked:

Pleased at the fantastic and imaginative job that our good member DYHWIH did with the count this week, including seeing us safely through the 100-day Season Window.
(A Heaping Holly load of Thanks!)

Surprised at where the count is.
Why..........it's starting to dwindle down into a bed post!
Could these number really be right?
Days to the Season: 96
Days to Christmas Day: 138

Shocked at the close proximity of the next Milestone.
It's the........now hold on to your mistletoe (and mistlefinger, too)............THREE QUARTERS MARK TO THE SEASON and it looms just FIVE days ahead!
(Hey! What is it with all these Milestones rushing in on us, anyway??)


Great weather for most of the trip to Hilton Head and Charleston SC, although on Thursday evening in Charleston, we had quite a storm/downpour with street flooding. Once that subsided, we had clear sailing and I even got some photos of a year-round Christmas shop in downtown Charleston. (Will try to post photos.)
Today has begun sunny at 70 degrees.


Have a Super Sunday, Folks.
It's wonderful to be back!

Great to see you back, Crown! Hope you had a great time and glad to hear you had great weather for the most part. Excited for the count!

Last day to relax and do whatever until next weekend and the cat wouldn't let me sleep in passed 6:00. I got enough sleep so it's okay.
He has learned how to wake me up without my husband knowing he's disturbing me. He sneaks around to my side of the bed and taps my arm with his front paws. That ***** willow feeling always gets me up just in case it's a furry spider and not something else.
The smell of coffee carried me to the kitchen. Husband has already headed out to run a few errands and I'm still in my nightgown. HaHa.

"Merawll!" means "stay jolly!"

Hope you're having a great day, AMD! Give O'Malley a hug!

Good Sunday afternoon, everyone!

It was a very busy Saturday here in Canada's Capital. Kim and I finally found Simon's favourite food. He was very excited to have it return to his dish after a two month absence. It was nice to cook a delicious dinner last night and then just spend some time watching a movie.

I spotted a sign that the Season is getting closer at Petsmart! It's more than 2 1/2 months away, but Petsmart is already prepared for all your pet costume needs. I'd be lying to say that I wasn't surprised, although it did not fail to put a smile on my face.

After taking this photo, we visited Walmart and I noticed that all their Seasonal items are being moved around and switched to Fall. I suspect that Halloween will make its way in there within a couple weeks.

A little before Halloween, but I also spotted this nice seasonal aisle a week and a half ago at our grocery store. After all, (Canadian) Thanksgiving is only about two months away!:

Well, I hope you all have had a wonderful weekend. Enjoy the rest of your afternoon and evening!

Glad that you guys were able to find Simon's favorite food, again. I bet he is a very happy boy!
The pet costumes are so cute!
I love seeing fall items, again, in the stores!!
So exciting!
Hope you guys have a wonderful day~

Good morning, friends!
Happy Sunday~

What are your plans for the day?

We plan to get a few projects done around the house. And I need to do a few loads of laundry. Other than that, just relaxing.

Wishing you a blessed and beautiful day with your loved ones!

Good afternoon, Snowflake! Hope you've got done what you wanted to today, but able to relax too! Hope you're having a great day!

I am sure that Simon was wondering what took us so long to get his favourite food back... He wasn't happy for a while. Unfortunately, we could not do much about it. It was out of stock and not being shipped into Canada for almost two months!

I love seeing all the fall stuff, too. Don't get me wrong, I love summer, but I guess I can fully admit to loving all the seasons. Each has its perks and something great to offer!

Hope you guys are, as well!
Have a great day!
