Thanks!
It's also sitting next to our "music unit" (turntable/cassette player/CD player), so it's an enticement to digitize some Christmas LPs!

Sounds comforting and cozy!

I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!

Hope you have a GREAT day, too! Stay warm!

Exactly! It's sometimes fun the think about what I would do with unlimited funds, but in reality, big money seems to bring big trouble to families. I joke around about winning the lotto, but I wouldn't do anything to risk what I have now!

Well said!

Think positive thoughts, please ... Mr. has a couple of job leads to follow up on today, and we are hopeful.

Good morning everyone, Happy Thursday!
Just a quick hello, I'm heading back out soon to pick Maggie up from the groomer. Typical day for me, I'll be running errands and doing chores. I'll pop back in when I can.
I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!

Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

I spent the whole afternoon at the doctor's office with Jacob yesterday. I'm pretty sure they forgot we were in the exam room. Finally, a nurse stuck her head in, looked a little shocked, and we were seen quickly thereafter. LOL

I see the Powerball was won. Thank goodness! I wouldn't want all that money, anyway....yeah, I said it!

I hope y'all have a great day!

I wouldn't know what to do with all that money. But I'd be ok with winnng maybe 1 million .

Did you get any snow this morning HMG? We got about half an inch just enough to make everything look like it's Christmas.

I was just about to have a tea and catch up on here a little but it's time to pick up my son. Back later I hope!

This actually makes me sad. Weather is so horrible in Florida, generally January and February are the only somewhat tolerable months and that's if you're lucky. I know I'm odd man out, but I wish I could stay in January and February till its time for October. LOL

What are your seasons like?
I understand completely about wanting to be in the months that are most comfortable for you.

We woke up to 3 inches of new snow and its still snowing. I turned on the deck Christmas lights and of course my phones camera quit working again ...3 more weeks and Adios..HTC

Goodnight MMC!

Hope everyone has a blessed night. All your families are home safe and sound, pups are walked and in for the night and everyone is enjoying the Pines.

I got to listen to the first volume of the album I purchased and converted it to digital. Started Volume 2, but didn't get to finish it. Will cue it up again in the morning. In the process of doing that, the stereo system in Noah's room has a storage area at the bottom for LPs, of which there were many. Quite frankly I was shocked there were so many as to my knowledge he only had a few. Apparently he had put most of the albums from a storage bin that was at my mom's house into the rack, most of which were mine from childhood. I started reminiscing looking through the titles and was so excited to find two more albums from my mother's Christmas collection!

One was the very first Christmas album they bought for their first Christmas together after they were married. A Merry Mancini Christmas. I'm going to digitize it to a CD and give it to her. She talked about that album frequently, but they have not had a turntable that could play LPs in decades. She spoke of wishing she could hear it again, but I never remembered seeing the cover and she couldn't describe it either. It was just, "That Mancini Christmas album..." This is it:

Good night everyone. Have a blessed and peaceful night!

Just in case anyone needs a designated driver from Carl's bar machinations, let me know.

What an awesome find! Your mom will be so surprised! Love it! Have a great day graywolf!

Good evening,

I am losing steam fast so I will make this quick.
I only got one tree down, the little 3 foot tree in the window. The snow falling this morning made it feel too Christmassy to take them all down. Oh well I get a few more days to enjoy them
Back to work tomorrow.

Goodnight, everyone

Enjoy those tree's as long as you can!! Have a good day xmas!
