Christmas Countdown - 2015

[Christmas-A-Holic]

Good morning, holiday!
Happy milestone day, happy Rudolph day, and Mary for months until Christmas!
Hope it's a quiet day at the office for you, with one of your bosses being gone ;-)
Enjoy the fall like weather!
We are currently at 53° with a high of 70°, just about perfect weather for me!
Have a great day!

Ahhh! You are getting nice weather too! I'm jealous! Enjoy!

Good Tuesday morning to everyone.
Hope it's gotten off to a great start.

Today is the first day back to school for my girls. After my morning workout i had some time with London helping her with her outfit choices and chatting up with her. These moments like this with her are winding down as this is her last year of high school. I did the "mum" thing and snapped a pic for my documenting purposes while i heard "oh come on mum" lol. She leaves so early, 6:15 am. Lizzybeth had a more anxious start than her big sister, she got a little sick but i think it was her nerves getting the best of her. Starting 5th grade is huge too. I was one of several parents at the bus stop this morning seeing there kids off and catching up about everyone's summer.

I packed both of their lunches last night while they talked about their weekend with their dad. It was so cute to see all of our lunch boxes in the fridge once again. I put their back to school cards inside which the other kids make fun of them for but i don't do it for the other kids i do it for them. They like them so that's enough for me. I put a preseasoned chicken in the slow cooker as a part of their special back to school dinner tonight, it's one less thing i have to rush to do when i get home from work.

As much as some may dread the start of a new school year i love it. For me it means we're back on our routine and i thrive on a routine.

What about anyone else what does the coming of the autumn season mean for you and how do you usually wrap up your summer?

Good morning ladybugkisses!! I hope both girls have a great 1st day back to school. Our school starts tomorrow. The neighbor kids were all out last night enjoying there last night of not having to get up in the morning for school.
You dinner tonight sounds yummy!! Hope you have a great day too!

Good evening,

A long first day back, everything looked great, they did a great job keeping everything clean and neat.
JP had his 5th grade orientation tonight, he is nervous about going to the middle school this year, but he will get his mom as one of his teachers.
I am going to get some shuteye, losing the battle right now.
Inventory day for me tomorrow.

Goodnight, everyone.

Wow! Mom as teacher? That is cool! It is so hard to believe he is starting middle school - he is growing up! It is so awesome how we have all got to know each other on here and watching our kids grow up. Best of luck to him in middle school!

Good evening, HmG~
Sorry to hear that you're still having Internet problems. Hope it gets fixed quickly, and that the new router resolves it. Especially for your daughter sake. Hope her new semester goes well!
You guys are in my thoughts & prayers, as well. Hugs to you & Maggie

xx

I hope a new router fixes your internet problems. Frustrating! Have a great day HMG!

Thank you both!
My husband had to be on a job in the city today so it looks like I have to deal with the router situation. My daughters online classes begin on Thursday so I have to take care of it ASAP. I hope it's just a matter of switching the routers, that's all I'm capable of doing. I am not techy! I have a few other errands to run as well so it's going to be a busy day for me. I'll pop back in when I can. I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!
Happy Milestone Day!

Good Morning!

When I first joined here on MMC my granddaughter was born just a couple of months later. Yesterday she celebrated her 6th birthday! Time flies!

On a sad note, on my granddaughter's birthday 2 years ago she got a Betta fish named Toby. Then yesterday on her birthday he passed away. They are like me and get attached to every living breathing creature so they are all sad to see him gone. I am too!

Thanks snowflake! Sounds like we have almost identical weather. I think our high today is 72º! ENJOY!

Thanks!
Glad that Gracie has her daddy home today !

 

[Holiday]

You need to come work with me, our bosses rock!!!

Enjoy the lovely weather!

LOL! My bosses are nice enough (well boss #2 can be quite grumpy Mon, Tues, & Wed...but Thurs Fri he starts to come around, usually) It's just nice when they have a day off!
Hope you have a wonderful day CAH!

Ahhh! You are getting nice weather too! I'm jealous! Enjoy!

Sounds like maybe you need to come here!

Awe ~ so sorry to hear about Toby! I'm sure he lived a good life with her! We have a beta in our aquarium. I hope she had a good birthday despite losing Toby - and I hope they had a good 1st day back to school.

NICE! I might have to turn that on if the boss #2 doesn't have a fit. LOL

 

[DoYouHearWhatIHear]

It'll be back on from 2-3 and 4-7! Now it's just fashion! Today and tomorrow, Christmas programming is spotty!

 

[Christmas-A-Holic]

Sounds like maybe you need to come here!

Sounds like a great plan!

Good Tuesday, Milestone Day, Rudolph Day, my Christmas friends!

My checkup went better than expected, with good cholesterol results, and everything else. The nurse even commented that I look much younger in person than I do in the picture of me in their file (was she hitting on me? ). I think I'm getting better with age!! LOL

We're having some network issues here at work, and I'm the unofficial local IT guy, so I've been catching it this morning. I think everyone is satisfied for the moment, though. Fingers crossed!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Hey Brad! I'm glad to hear your check up went well! Awesome news!! You have to watch them nurses! (right sugar??)
I hope your network issues are all straightened out!!
Have a great day!

Ahhh! You are getting nice weather too! I'm jealous! Enjoy!

Thank You! I am!
It was actually a bit chilly out there, but felt great! I spent over an hour outside @ the hotel site. It's only 55 degrees, and very windy. It's the winds that make it chilly. Love it!

Hope the girls have a wonderful first day back at school, I'll be thinking of them.
I love that you put cards in their lunch boxes, what a neat tradition. I'm sure it means a lot to them.
Hope you all have a blessed day~
