Christmas Countdown - 2015

[Holiday]

I did the same thing. The last thing my dad heard me say was complaining that Nancy wouldn't go with me to the mountains that weekend. Dad said he would go with me, but I was so irritated with Nancy, I told him to just forget about it. Then I went home and pouted some more.

Oh, to be able to take that back.

But I know he knew how much I loved him, even though the last time we spoke I was acting like a spoiled child.

I know your dad knew how much you loved him, too. I'm sorry for you loss, my friend. I know how much it hurts. Take care.

Nicely said Brad!
And I have no doubt your Dad knew how much he meant to you - and how much you love your wife - even if you were irritated at the time! (((hugs)))

Merry Thursday everybody! Where has this week gone??
Busy working today at home. However Isaac has picked up a cold so won't be in nursery school today. It's a shame he has to miss a day, he has been enjoying it there so much and goes in each day with such enthusiasm, So not sure how much I will get done.

Have a pleasant and easy going day!

Thanks Stacey, he is in good spirits and resting on the sofa. I can feel a tickle in my throat, I hope I don't come down with it. The only downside to this time of year here - cold season!

Merry Thursday Sam!
Sending get well wishes for Isaac. Praying you don't come down with anything!
I hope you have a wonderful day!

Enjoy the Dew! It's chilly in the office this morning (windows open) so the coffee is yummy & warm!

It is chilly in here, too. Set at 68 degrees, a vent is above me. I have my space heater going.
It's 100% humidity and 80 degrees outside, though. Ha ha!

Good morning, MMC, and happy double digits!

What a wonderful way to start the day. It's going to be another busy one, but I'm off tomorrow for a conference, and I'm having dinner with good friends tonight, so I'll think of that while I'm getting things done. This has been my busiest week at work with both jobs in terms of actual work needing to be done, so I will have earned tomorrow and the weekend for sure. Whew.

Hope everyone has a marvelous Friday eve!!

Good morning DYHWIH!
I hope your day goes well!
Have a wonderful time at dinner tonight!!!

This day last year around 1 in the afternoon, my Dad died. As was our custom, I was on the phone with him at 9:30 that morning. He was talkative that day but I cut him off so I could go back to work. I was unbelievably stupid and selfish with no idea of what is important and what is not.

Thinking of you, friend.
Sending prayers, strength, and hugs.

GM...I had computer issues all day yesterday but I am back on track today. Today I have to take my Andre to the vet. Over the winter he had some issues that he was in pain when he turned his neck to the left. They thought he may have a slipped disc in his neck. He was on muscle relaxers and anti inflammatories for 2 weeks and he was back to normal. But I noticed it seems as if it has flared up again. He yelped a couple of times yesterday. So I am taking him today at 2:30. The good thing is that he is still eating and acting pretty his usual self.

Good morning SnowflakeMom, Happy Thursday!
I will be praying for Andre, I hope his appointment goes well. Sending hugs your way.

Good Morning, Good Morning, my Friends!

It is with awe, tinged with just a trace of panic, that I present today's numbers:
Days to the Season: 57
Days to Christmas Day: 99

Can BOTH of our counts really be in the double-digit range? Is this possible??
Holy Holly, things are getting away from us!! What can we do???
<< Calm down, Crown. >>
Right...right. No need to become frantic. We still have plenty of time......don't we?


Let's try a less stressful subject:
It's a bit warmer here, but still nice. Clear, sunny skies with still low humidity make for some really nice late Summer weather.
This fine morning has commenced at 64 degrees here in this sector of the great MMC Nation.


Have a Thrilling Thursday Folks, and take a moment to dream of Weekend Eve just ahead!

Thank you so much Crown!
Hope you have a great day!!!

Oh my goodness!! Look at her!! So cute!!!



Thank you! I hope so too! My friend said she (another Rosie) is doing a little better now that she is on the Percocet!

Thank you!
I'm glad to hear that Rosie is doing a little bit better. Continued prayers ♥

Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

I worked with the IT guy all day yesterday, so I wasn't on here much. The kids went to youth at church last night, and I watched TV till I fell asleep. It might have been a boring evening, but I enjoy those once in a while.

Tomorrow morning I have a consultation with the doctor who is going to perform the "procedure" that we who hit 50 have to endure. Said procedure is scheduled for next Wednesday, so UGH. LOL

I hope y'all have a great day!

Good morning Brad!
I hope your consultation goes well tomorrow. Keeping you in my thoughts.
I hope you have a Happy Thursday!
