Christmas Countdown - 2015

[AuntieMistletoeDear]

Good Saturday morning everyone! Yes Saturday...the best day of the week. How's everyone's weekend starting off? It is currently 47 degrees with rain here in the suburbs of NY. Feels almost more like early December, not October. I'm glad it's not December though because I want to enjoy the slow (hopefully) long ride to the holiday season.
My plans today are to exercise, do some errands, and some homework but...to try to relax some. I feel like the week is so hectic that when you reach the weekend personally I'd prefer more quiet weekends where I have time to actually just stop...we're always on the go in life it seems. Those moments or days or even that hour out of your day where you can just stop...feels really good.
Anyway, having my iced coffee and coffee roll here for breakfast. During the week I just eat cold cereal or yogurt so on the weekend I treat myself to something different/special. Enjoy your Saturday!

I move so quickly through the week between my early bird work out routines at the gym and work and when I stop on Saturdays, I get so tuckered out that I grab a nap and then worry that I'm going to slip into "Rip Va Winkle" mode and miss Christmas. That would be the worst thing that I could ever sleep through. I'm wiped now, but I figured I'd swing by this way so I would engage my mind a bit so I can stay awake; it's only 6:40 and I'm already thinking about calling it a day. Watching the ball game and getting caught up here should keep me up.

Yeah I get up early to work out also before work. I feel like from Monday morning till Friday late afternoon I have very little "down time." But that's why I treasure the weekends.

 

[AuntieMistletoeDear]

That's why I love running. That high you get.

I get a pretty good endorphin rush when I'm working out in the morning, but by 11:00 a..m. I could use a siesta; I'm probably overdoing it a bit, but I've stepped up my game plan and it's working; my abs and my body are screaming, so I'm not a poster-gran for fitness, but I wouldn't stop doing it now; it's part of my lifestyle.

Pineapple chicken with rice.

That sounds really good, too...

Merry Saturday, HmG~
Hope all of your errands go well today!
Have a wonderful visit with your parents, and enjoy the ornament premiere!
Have a great day

Thank you so much Snowflake, it's been a nice day so far. Waiting for my husband to get home, we're going out to dinner. It's getting late, I'm hungry!
Did you go to Hallmark today? I ended up getting Bubble Lights, Heat Miser and the Reindeer Rock Record Player. Oh and I had a coupon for a free toy soldier ornament. I saw so many I liked, it's always hard to choose!
Hope you're having a beautiful day!

We had such a nice summer...so much sun shine and warm temps. One of the nicest summers I can remember. But this week really is making up for it because I don't think that I've seen the sun in almost a full week now.

We had a beautiful summer!
I've had enough of this rain, we need some sunshine!
Hope you have a nice night Edge!

 

[Christmasstar]

OK.
Will give you Day 3 before the Season (Nov. 10) the day you had last year.

thank you

No doubt about it. Luckily the forecast for next week is much nicer.

Thank you!
I had a dental implant put in yesterday. I think it was the pain medication that made me sick, so I stopped taking it. Happily, there's not much pain today. Hoping I feel like working on my Christmas projects this weekend.

uggghhh, that stinks! hope your still feeling better tonight....

 

[Edge612]

That battle between wanting to stay up late on the weekend...and wanting to get a good nights sleep.

 

[MerryCarey]

uggghhh, that stinks! hope your still feeling better tonight....

Yes, feeling much better today, thanks! No pain today. Expensive work, but the dentist is excellent. Yes, it stinks, but it had to be done. Mr. had oral surgery this week, too. We get our stitches out next week. We're both eating soft foods in the meantime.

 

[DoYouHearWhatIHear]

Goodnight everyone!!!! Church tomorrow AM and then a day full of rest! Loving this weekend!!!

 

[Edge612]

A good nights sleep wins out. Good night everyone. Talk to you all on Sunday.

Rest peacefully!!

Thinking of you both~
Take care!

Oh yeah! We get lots of customers come in when school is about to begin with their teenage daughters to buy cow bells for the drill team. We sell it for other things too like you mentioned. I don't think one customer ever buys one for their cow! Lol! They are a good price!
