Good Pinesday morning, my Christmas friends!

My chicken & yellow rice was a hit! I made a big pot, planning to provide my lunch for a couple days, too, but we wound up taking it to Bernie & Hilda's for a big supper. Not many leftovers leftover! That's ok. I always enjoy spending time with my in-laws. They are great!

Our weekend keeps getting busier...and I wanted to go to the mountains, doggone it! Our church is having a fund-raising spaghetti dinner Friday, Jacob's band is playing Friday night, and now Jacob has to work on Saturday. That boy might get left behind.

Still sending prayers for Snowflake & Harlowe, Sam, and everyone else who could use His help today!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Good Morning, Brad~
Happy Pines Day to you, friend.
Glad you all enjoyed your chicken & yellow rice!
Your weekend ahead sounds busy but fun, too. Hope you can make it to the mountains!
Thanks so much for your prayers, they mean a lot.
Have a blessed day!

Good morning MMC! Happy Hump/Pines Day! What a morning! Got a call at 6:45 - Mom thinks she has pneumonia! She didn't sleep well last night due to the coughing + she took Nyquil, so that made her "dopey" (her words! ) My sis checked in on her at 7. I stopped on my way to work & she wanted me to get her some cough drops. I stopped at work to see if they needed anything here - got her cough drops & made her a hot toddy (minus the whiskey ) She thought that helped to calm her cough a little. My brother stopped to check on her while I was there. I came back to work & my other sister was on her way there - she is taking her to the doc at 10:45. I finally got to work a little after 9....and it already seems like I've been here a full day! What the heck?! Hopefully some good drugs will help her out & she won't need to be admitted to the hospital. xx
That's been about all that's going on here today! LOL Have a wonderful day MMC!!! (It's cold outside!)

Good Morning, Holiday~
Happy Pines Day!
So sorry to hear about your Mom.
Praying it's not pneumonia, and that they can prescribe some meds to heal her without having to admit her. Lots of prayers and hugs on the way!
Stay warm today~

I dropped it off this morning when I went to get Moms cough drops since she works right next door to the quick stop! She was surprised. She thought it turned out really well! Thanks!

That's so awesome, I'm sure it means a lot to her.

Glad to hear that, friend!
Hugs to you both~

What a cutie~
Hope your errands and chores go well today.
I forgot it was Valentines Day, too.
Hope you find some good candy!
Have a wonderful day!

Thank you so much!
xoxo

They do put us to work, but they are worth it... just wish they could talk. (sometimes) LOL

Completely worth it <3
I really wish they could talk to us in a language we understand, too.

Good morning MMC, Happy Pines Day!
Not too much going on here today, typical day of errands and chores. I just have to run to the bank and post office this morning. I'm also going to stop at Rite Aid to look at the Valentines Day candy, I almost forgot it was this Sunday. February is moving right along!
I hope everyone is well and has a nice day!

So glad to hear Maggie is doing better this week - I too hope that continues!! xx Hope your errands go well. Have fun picking out candy!!

Good morning!

The Winter Storm Advisory that was posted for our area should have been a Winter Storm Warning ~ what a mess out there. My brother had an accident on his way home from work last night. He said he was all right and that there didn't appear to be any damage to his truck, but please keep him in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you so much!
The road hasn't been plowed yet so I am home. Lots to do for the store as I am working this weekend. It is going to be bitterly cold ~ not looking forward to going out in that at all!
Work beckons.

Be safe and merry!

So glad your brother was ok. How scary! Stay safe & warm Meceka!

Kinda late today due to roads being bad coming home this morning. Pic of the Day is up and its a good one.

Good morning NcGunny! Loved the pic of the day! Have a great day!

Sending many thoughts prayers & hugs your way!! It has to be tough to be at work today! Praying Har eats & has a good day, as well as you!! So comforting that your friend can check on her! (((HUGS))) I hope you get a much better nights sleep tonight!

Thank you so much for the prayers and hugs <3
I'm anxious to hear from my friend Reggie, hopefully she's still drinking at eats at least a little something for her.

I'm sorry to hear about your mom being so sick. Bless her heart, it's frightening when older folks get that sick. Praying she gets better soon!

Mama took my brother to the emergency room night before last, and he has pneumonia, too. It seems he waits until he just can't move, then he goes to the ER. It's always a little scary with him, though. As a transplant kidney recipient, he's on immunosuppressive drugs, so it's harder for him to get over illnesses.

He could use prayers, too!

Thank you Brad! That is scary! Prayers for your bother too. Hope they both get over this quick!!! xx
Sounds like your chicken & rice was a hit!! I bet they appreciated you sharing it!! Guess you'll have to make it again!! Hope you enjoy the busy weekend & are able to head to the mountains!!!

Thanks snowflake!! She seems to get this every year, without fail! The warmer weather over the weekend didn't help, I'm sure!
