It's hard to believe that kids are going back to school here today. Where did the summer go?

Wow they start early. Here they start after Labor Day.

Good Wednesday Morning MMC! Happy Pines Day! Here we are again in the middle of another week. Trying to figure out what I want to do on my day off Friday. Not sure. I think that I may try getting errands done and such so that the weekend I can just relax a bit more. The heat is supposed to break on Friday (finally). Not that it'll be cool but it looks like may be in the low 80s for the weekend which is more normal for late July.
I hope you all have a great Pines Day/Mid-Week as we're rolling towards the end of July already!

Have a good day Edge! Hope you have a nice day off Friday!!

Good morning everyone!
I know it's been away for a few days (maybe several ), but I've missed you all. Things are crazy at work and even crazier outside of work. I've been organizing a 3000 men event that will be held Aug 12-13. My part of the event is promotion and registration/ticket sales. And then on Aug 16 I'm having shoulder surgery (rotator). So I'll be out of "service" for a little while. But after the surgery, I should be here during the recovery.

I hope you all have a blessed and I'll try to check back in later.
Happy Pines Day!!!

Good luck planning the event!
I hope your surgery goes very well & wishing you a speedy recovery! We'll be here to help you with some Christmas therapy.
Have a good day!

Good Morning, Singular Christmas Comrades.
(Notice the choice of the word "Singular". There's a reason. Stay tuned.)

Today's figures:
Days to the Season: 109
Days to Christmas Day: 151

Now, as to "Singular", as in Single. As in SINGLE DIGITS!
That's right. We are now down to NINE DAYS to the the 100-day Season Milestone Marker and the threshold of a DOUBLE DIGIT count to the Season!
(Holy Cow --- er, Reindeer!!)


Once again we stayed in our damp, sultry, oppressive weather rut yesterday, broken only by THREE separate severe weather warnings last night that fortunately only brought a little rain and some distant lightning.
Today will hopefully be calmer but I'm afraid no cooler/less humid.
We have begun here already at 81 drippy degrees this morning.


Have a Wonderful Wednesday, Folks.
And an entertaining visit to the Shispering Pines this evening, where Carl promises to beat the heat with come "cool" entertainment.
(Interpret that as you will!)

Wishing you a calm weather day! See you tonight!

Oh wow that is early!! My kids start 8/31 but we got out early June.
Have a great day Made!

Most of the district's here let out at the end of May. They use what they call a balanced schedule here now though with a shorter summer break and a 2 week fall and spring break.

My nieces go back Monday and they are one of the later ones. So I bet they are back by then.

Wow that is early!! When I was in school we started around Aug 15th and got out around May 15th'ish. Of course the days were longer and rarely had a weather makeup day.

My nieces go back Monday and they are one of the later ones. So I bet they are back by then.

I just looked up their school district, they go back Wednesday. A week from today. Doesn't seem possible!

Good to see you back! 3000 men? What kind of event are you planning?! LOL

I'm praying your surgery goes smoothly, and you get some relief!
