Christmas Countdown - 2015

[Edge612]

I agree! With Thanksgiving being so late again this year it seems I've been running crazy trying to get stuff done so that I can relax & enjoy it all....and now it's only 2 weeks until Christmas Eve! Geez!

Starting in 2016 Thanksgiving will be coming earlier, the 24th, then the 23rd and 22nd the next 3 years so it will give us a little more time between Thanksgiving and Christmas!

Good morning!
Happy Thursday!
So most of my Christmas shopping is done. I have a couple of grab bag gifts that I still need to pick up for Christmas Eve. The gifts have to be gender neutral and appropriate for a child as well as an adult. I need to figure out what I'm going to get. I'm also going to Target for a few things. There's a HomeGoods in the same shopping center so I'm going to run in there too. Other than that I'll be working on some chores around the house. My husband and I are going to try and start working on the Christmas Village tonight, hopefully he'll get home early enough. That's about it for me. Hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!

Sounds like a Christmassy day in store for you!! Good luck with shopping & have fun with the village. Can't wait to see!!

** CHRISTMAS SEASON DAY 28 **



Good Morning, Friends.

Closing in, now.
Almost down to 2 weeks.

Days to Christmas Day: 15
(Two weeks from tomorrow, in fact!)


Still the nice weather persists and it's only going to get better, at least through Sunday, before cooler temps return.
No rain on the horizon, either.
Right now, we show 48 degrees on our back door thermometer.


Have a Thrilling Thursday, Folks!



** Travel Alert ** / Volunteer needed request:

The Crowns are off to visit my niece in Charlotte Saturday and we will be gone overnight, so a Countdown volunteer will be needed for Sunday morning, only.
Any takers?

How fun!! Have a safe trip!!

Good Thursday Morning MMC! Today is my annual Christmas party after work. We are heading to the same place we have the last 3 years that I've been here. They will have lots of food and meeting people who you talk to all the time but never see (some of them work on the fields and such and in different locations than me). It's always fun. I'll be leaving here around 3PM to go there and will probably be home by around 8. A long day but a fun one.
I hope you all have a great Thursday as we head towards another weekend...only 2 left before Christmas???

Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

I had a quiet evening yesterday, probably the last of the month LOL. I fixed my garland on the front door, but aside from that, nothing more than sitting on the couch watching The Polar Express.

I plan to work on the Camaro tonight. I got a package with some needed parts, so off we go!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Happy Friday Eve, Brad~
I watched The Polar Express last night, too! So magical.
Have fun working on the Camaro tonight!
Have a wonderful day

Gosh, but the day has gotten off to a bad start, between waking up during a bad dream, battling a difficult computer update that made me late for work, and a headache. Things can start improving now! I do have Friday and Monday off so I can make cookies and wrap gifts (and grab some sofa / Christmas movie / crochet / cocoa time, if possible).

Your day sounds so relaxing Brad! It is so nice to do that every now and then.

Happy Friday Eve Friends!! I cannot believe Christmas Eve is 2 weeks away. I need to get wrapping! Nothing too exciting just working. The weather has been so warm here...we may get up to 65 on Sunday. Crazy! I do like it a bit colder for Christmas.
Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Have fun at your Christmas party!!

Thanks!
