Christmas Countdown - 2015

[Festive Spirit]

Good evening, friends! Happy Labor Day Eve! Hope you're all enjoying the holiday weekend! I work tonight for the holiday, but will be off tomorrow night, so we'll be having a picnic here tomorrow at my house. Looking forward to a day off and spending time with my family.

Hope all is well with you all! I miss being caught up here and reading all the posts. I continue to think of you all everyday and pray for you all as well! God Bless and stay safe!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend with your loved ones and enjoy a much needed break from work!

Hope everyone had a lovely weekend!
My santa shopping is well on the way went abit mad in our local toys r us on Saturday

Well done you for getting a head start! When you think about it , it's not actually that far away and considering all the other things to get done it makes sense to begin now!

Good morning MMC and HAPPY LABOR DAY! The unofficial end to summer is here! Let fall begin!!!!!!

I have to labor (work) today, and I spent the weekend with my in-laws. I'm burned out, but I will get through today just fine-feeling optimistic! How have you all been? I missed you this weekend!

This evening, I will make my first fall wreath (just dried grapevine with a fall leaf ribbon wrapped around it) and hang it on our door--pictures forthcoming! Have a wonderful day, Christmas friends!!!

Happy Labour Day. Hope your work day goes quickly! The fall wreath sounds rustic and beautiful. I look forward to the photo. I keep saying every year that I will make a wreath but never do it.

Good Morning MMC !!

heat warnings here again today, the humidity will be pushing temperatures up to the low 40c's (104f), a good day to cuddle up to the air conditioner

baking some bread today, crazy I know with these temps but only day I can do it this week.

Hope those with the labour day off enjoy and those who do not we are thinking of you and toasting your hard work , hope you get off early so you can still enjoy at least part of the day.

Good Morning, Everyone.

Single Digits to a Double-Double Digit count.
(Sounds confusing, but actually it's wonderful!)

Days to the Season: 67
Days to Christmas Day: 109

Indeed.
In nine short days, both our Season and Chrismas Day count will consist of double digits instead of the usual triple.
(This, of course, means that time is just starting to grow short.)
It is also a good indicator that we are getting pretty close to the posting of Christmas Blossoms 2015.
(Which in turn means I had better get crackin' looking for some early season photos to launch the thread with!)


The situation remains tolerable, weather wise, as we move along through the final days of official Summer.
I'm not a big one for cold weather, so I'm ususally sad to see the summer go.
BUT, of course, it means our much beloved and greatly coveted Christmas Season is that much closer!
We have started off the new week here at 74 degrees in the NC state capital.


Have a Marvelous Monday, Folks!

We took our early morning walk at the Arboretum yesterday and they are already setting up the gazebos for the 12 Days of Christmas! Exciting!

My husband was checking out the local cable channel this morning (because the weather network wasn't listing current temps - our crew falling asleep at the switch) - anyway I couldn't help, but notice the message announcing the Christmas Craft Show coming up Nov. 23rd.

The signs of Christmas are everywhere.

Yes! And the second picture---it's so rare to see Snoopy acting like a regular dog, and to see Charlie Brown genuinely happy. It's an "all's right with the world" picture.

Speaking of Snoopy ...

Gotta love the Peanuts.

I hope everyone is having a great day so far!

Thanks, Coen!
Hope you are, too! =]

I have been so far. Monday is my day off, so it feels like I can kind of cheat the start of the week.
