Christmas Countdown - 2016

[xmas365]

Good evening,

A long one here, inventory went off without a hitch. I was extremely cold standing in the freezer counting tonight, took hours to get warm again.
Getting some snow, and freezing rain tonight.
Pretty standard night here, not much else to report.

Goodnight, everyone.

We rarely see red squirrels around here, every once in a while we see one. In Westfield, Mass. they have black squirrels. They were introduced there in the 1940's, that is the only place we see those cuties.

I think we have these in certain parts here but I've never encountered any. I bet they are something to see! I love squirrels too.

Hello all! The whole family is healthy again! Thanks for all of the positive thoughts over the last week.

They are once again calling for a little snow in the near future. We are expecting a lot of rain starting late tonight through tomorrow. Then, the rain is suppose to turn to snow Wednesday night. Depending on what station or website you follow, we are expecting either a dusting to an inch, 1-3 inches or 2-4 inches. We will see what happens. Everyone send snowy thoughts if you would.
I want to play in the snow and have not really been able to this year. So little snow.

Glad to hear you are all better now. Enjoy the snowfall. We have not had snow here in years thanks to climate change.

Here in Chicago watching Elf getting ready for a decent snow storm! Cheers everyone!!

Stay safe in the storm. I bet it will be so pretty to watch though!

Merry Wednesday and Happy Pines Day.
Hope the day is good to all of you.
Six sleeps left till March 01st! I can hardly believe we got here so soon.

Good Morning, friends~
Merry Pines Day!!

Adrian & I talked last night about Harlowe, and we both feel better about having her tested, to see if the infection is gone. We'd hate to move forward with the heart medicine this weekend, and have to stop it again and take a step backward to go on antibiotics again.
I was up with her a lot last night, stomach upset, trips outside, etc. Poor girl. She is scooting, too. That could be a sign right there. Please keep her in your prayers.

Wishing you all a cozy & blessed day~
See you tonight!

Aww Stacey ((( Hugs)) I am so sorry Harlowe had a tough night. It sounds like she is struggling again. You are making the right decision going forward. Mom knows best. Follow your instincts. Praying for Harlowe's health and well being and for strength and courage for you and Adi. Please keep me posted. Can you have her tested quite soon?

Good morning!

Waiting on the snow storm. The different forecasts call for anywhere between 4.5 and 14 inches, but all agree that there will be significant blowing and drifting.

Ended up having lunch with my cousin yesterday. It had been several months since we had been able to get together, so we made an afternoon of it and went to the Mission Store and the library, too. It was a fun time and just what I needed as it has been a bit of a stressful week.

Be safe and merry!

Sounds like an afternoon well spent. It's nice to have a break in routine and hectic schedule. Hope it has helped to recharge your body and spirit.

Thanks for the prayers & encouragement, Sam
We just need to bring a sample in, and do the more extensive test. Some of the bacteria doesn't show up on the regular testing. I'm just not sure if she'll be able to give us one early on today. If not, we will have to wait until tomorrow. It needs to be current & when the lab is open.

Good Morning all my favourite Christmas companions !

Spent a scary part of the night online with my brother who is working in Dolton Al. this week.
here is some of what he was telling us...

Got an emergency message on my phone and then this on the tv...I'm going to hide now!
Powers out and sirens are sounding...I'll admit it...I'm shaking
Just a few blocks from where I'm staying. I heard it go by the hotel. I got to hear what the tornado sirens sound like tonight. Second picture I took from my room. it is Walmart. The news is reporting that it is damaged by the tornado.

after the last post it was over 10 min before we heard from him again, he was hiding in the tub with bathroom door closed ,,,happy to say he is fine but we had some anxious moments and lack of sleep last night.
I am glad it is morning. This same storm system is due to hit here with freezing rain and snow this morning and lasting till sometime tomorrow.

Hope all of you in the path of this keep safe and warm.
I am off to work in a few min. Have a great day !
