Christmas Countdown - 2016

[Festive Spirit]

Good Night MMC! Football season is over but Walking Dead season is resuming...

Rest well. It was a good game!

 

[Festive Spirit]

Well my Broncos pulled it off. Peyton can now go out on top with a couple more records for good measure. Not that the offense showed many signs of life tonight. The defense put on a clinic though.

I'm heading to bed now to have nightmares of the woo guy.

Goodnight, MMC!!!

Rest Well Made. Another Superbowl now over. It was an exciting game.

I found a quick video of Lulu jumping through a hoop for carrot pieces LOL.

I wish I could see this video ~ I'm sure it is adorable!

Hahaha! Swap out yarn for the thread, and you've got me!
One year for Christmas my SIL drew my name and didn't know what to get me. She bought a wicker laundry basket and filled it up with yarn!

That is a great present!

We're having a rough night, so I'm going to sign off.
Please keep Harlowe in your prayers.
Thank you~

Goodnight, God Bless.

I'm sorry Snowflake, I know how upsetting it is. I go through the same thing every day. It's hit or miss with Maggie. She's not impressed with any food I put in front of her. I've mentioned before that we have to practically stand on our heads to get her to take her pills. I really feel for you. I hope you have better luck tomorrow (((HUGS)))

Thank you, friend.

I am sorry to hear Har having a rough night last night. She is still in my thoughts.

Thanks, friend~

Good evening,
Finally feeling better tonight/today, I made it through work yesterday, but it was a struggle. We also went out with another couple last night for dinner and bowling, I pushed through but was completely exhausted.
Just a lazy day resting today, we didn't watch the Super Bowl, which has turned into our little tradition. I think we haven't watched it since 2008.
Snow in the forecast tomorrow, looks like it will be close to 6 inches for us on top of the 8 we got on Friday. Winter is finally here.

Goodnight, everyone.

Glad you're feeling better!
Enjoy the snow today. Stay safe.

Congrats to the Broncos!

Praying the Vet can help you today Stacey. I hope Har is in a better mood this morning and takes her meds. I understand how important it is that she takes it and your fear and worry that she isn't. Hang in there and keep courage.

Thanks, Sam
It is so scary that she isn't. Thanks for the prayers.

Morning everyone and a happy Sunday! Unfortunately I have been down with a chest infection all week which has been a real struggle as I've had a busy week. Hopefully i'll get a doctors appointment this week in case I need something a bit stronger than I'm taking. Anyone with Superbowl party plans enjoy, I think I'll be tucked up in bed with a hot toddy ;-)

Praying you are better!

Good Morning, Folks.
We're closing in on 2016 Milestone # 2!

The numbers:
Days to the Season: 280
Days to Christmas Day: 322

FIVE DAYS!
That's all we have left before arriving at the 1/4 Milestone marker to the Season.
(Gee. I wonder what the next one is, but am afraid to look!)


Downright cold here yesterday under a weak sun. At least it was dry.
More of the same today except even colder with possible frozen precipitation by the middle of next week.
We are at 38 cloudy degrees here, currently.


OK! You all know what today is.
(No, not 'Pines Day.)
It's NFL Championship day. The day the Panthers try to win it all!


As such, you have a Super Super Bowl Sunday, Everybody!!

Thank you, Crown!

Finally trouble-free. I'm sure you can imagine my surprise when I contacted my service provider and after three weeks with no internet access to reach someone who told me that my account had been suspended due to illegal activity. HUH??? My d-link had been recalled and I had no idea because I don't use my old email account so I never received the warning. Someone had hacked into my router and was using it like free wifi. A similar thing happened in April and the technician bypassed something and set me up again, but never told me I needed to get a new router with firewall security. When I shared my frustration with the service rep, he indicated that they are not IT specialists, they are only trained in their own software and set ups. Well, 40 minutes and $70.00 later, I installed a new router all by myself. Got my old laptop back on-line too.

Unfortunately, I can't play catch up right now; I'm heading over to visit my mom. She's been in and out of the hospital twice since mid-January and her spirits are a bit low.

I should get back up later this afternoon. Got my Super Bowl seat picked out, if the CAT doesn't object.

Keep a merry thought in your head; have a Super Sunday!!!

I'm glad you were able to get your internet problems sorted.
Keeping your mom in my prayers!

Thanks, HMG; I've sure missed the merriment, especially since the across the creek neighbours turned off their outdoor Christmas ligths and things are looking might drab out back.

My mom went to the hospital to remove a wee bit of her colon hoping it would clear up her medical worries with a cancer scare. Less than a week after she was released, she was right back in again; this time with poison in her body from the surgery. They got her cleaned out, but now she has to wear an ostomy bag and that was something she was adamant about not wanting. They told her it might only be for 4-6 months. She'll get used to it and eventually realize it's better than the alternative, but it's embarrassing and frustrating for her.

My dad ranted about his views on the situation privately to me before he contacted anyone else with an update on her condition so he could get all the negative stuff off his chest before he talked optimistically about it with other family members and relatives. I'm glad he and I have that kind of relationship where he can unload when required, otherwise he'd just keep everything all bottled up and that wouldn't do him any good.

When I return later, I'll be anxiously awaiting the opportunity of hearing the merry podcast that I missed out on because my laptop wasn't working and it contains the music players I require to listen. I can hardly wait.

It is so nice that you have such a good relationship!

Does O'Malley favor the Broncos or the Panthers?
(Before you ask, remind him that after all, he IS a cat.)

Do you ever have that time in your life where you feel someone or something is testing your faith, strength and will to keep carrying on....

I feel that way right now.... If you can imagine what it looks like to see a 52 year old man cry, I can send you a picture....

My son who is in the Maryland air national guard, just came home and told me that his unit is being placed on active duty and will be shipped out to the Middle East this October....his name was on the list to go....

I am ex military. I know how it is and the possibility to be sent into harms way. But he is my son, and I love him so much.....

I cannot get a break...

Oh, xmas, I will be praying for Zachary and for you. (((HUGS)))

You should see him. Even if he is half asleep he'll jump out of a sound sleep if he hears the words peanut butter.

I had a dog, Rufus, who was that way over Beggin' Strips.

Another cutie! She still has sleep in her eyes.

Snow ~ nice! According to the news this morning, we are under a Winter Weather Advisory until 7:00 pm tomorrow, but they aren't saying what to expect.
Have a merry day!

Congratulations!

Good morning!

Spent several hours at the library yesterday updating my computer. It didn't seem to do anything except check for updates so I finally gave up and went home. Opened up the computer this morning, and it said that it had to restart for updates to take effect. Things are working a bit better this morning, just in time for work.

Have a merry day!

 

[Festive Spirit]

I know lovely. I feel for you.
Your welcome.

Have a lovely da M!
