We're at the halfway mark of another month! One week of school down, 35 more to go...

Update on home addition: we were able to sleep in our new bedrooms on Saturday night! We still need the vanity in the master bathroom, so we're still using the hall bath, but we're okay with that. Hopefully by the end of this week, the bathroom vanity & laundry room counter tops will be in and we'll be all set. The carpet in the basement addition will go in on Saturday, and them we can get everything moved to where it belongs. We are able to move freely now on the main floor and I was even able to get back to my regular exercise routine last night! I'm still not sleeping as well as I would like. It's kind of like the first couple of nights sleeping in a motel room. Once you get used to it, sleep is easier to come by!

I'm looking around the addition and trying to figure out where I can fit in the Christmas decor. I think we can easily put a larger tree in our master bedroom this year! Now that things are settling down & DD is back in school with an earlier bedtime, maybe I can watch a few more of the Christmas movies I DVR'd during Hallmark Channels Christmas in July.
 
Good morning all!
The rain has settled in here and looks like it will continue through a good part of the day. We had rain most of yesterday as well.
Today is the last Monday of Summer Break(as a teacher). My wife and I both have teacher work days starting next Monday and then the kids are back in school next Wednesday. However, both my wife and I will go to our respective schools and get some work done off and on during this week. She is actually heading in today.
Summer break is great and all, but I am really looking forward to school starting again.

Glad all is going well with the remodeling, whitney!
Enjoy the Christmas movies!! :)

Good Morning & Happy Monday, Iteachpercussion!
Hope all is going well with school prep, enjoy your last Monday on summer break!
 
Good Monday morning, Christmas friends!

I had a busy weekend, cutting the shrubs, but I got it done. I was scratched up, and bleeding like I'd been in a knife fight, but it looks pretty good! AND I got to go see Star Trek again Saturday afternoon. I want to see it at least a couple more times before it leaves the theaters.

Jacob started college today! His first class is already behind him, and he should be in his second class by now. Exciting times!!

I hope y'all have a great day! :D
 
Good evening,

Wild weather night here, we were under severe thunderstorm warnings 3 different times, and there may be more to come.
Dinner went well and was very yummy.
We also watched Batman vs Superman, I thought it was a very good, but long movie.

I hope you all had a great day
Goodnight, everyone
Must have been the weekend for a holiday meal. I made our traditional Christmas meal over the weekend. We always have smokehouse spaghetti on Christmas Eve, but this time I made Trish Yearwood's version of baked spaghetti, which is very similar with just a few different ingredients & I tweaked it a bit! It was very tasty & very filling! My hubby grilled wings & we had garlic bread/cheese. We had friends over. Fun times! :)
Glad to hear your Thanksgiving meal was delish!
 
Good morning everyone. I hope everyone has a great Sunday. It is hard to believe we are almost half way through August. Just a 2 and half weeks and we enter the 'Bers!
We are getting some badly needed rain this weekend and into the start of the week. This might mean I will have to mow my grass for the first time since the before the 4th of July! We have had so little rain this rain, I was starting to think my grass was supposed to brown and sound crunchy when I walked on it.
Our rain over the weekend (and today) was a blessing indeed! It was probably too late to give us a colorful showing of leaves this fall, but I'm ok with having to mow the grass again. It's been a long time!
Have a great day ITP!
 
hey there my sweet christmas homies!!!!

it´s been way too long since I´ve been here on MMC and I gotta make it a daily routine again.
I miss You guys and hope to join in on the merryness on the best christmas board ever.
much love from Kandice and I
Great to see you again, Track!!

It has been forever since we mowed the grass. I figure with the rain we will need to mow another time or two. We will start putting up Halloween decorations in September, so all mowing must be done by that time. :) It is too hard to get the mower between the gravestones and skeletons.

I just wish the rain would make it feel better outside. Instead, it is just crazy humid outside. When I go outside I am not sure if I am walking or swimming.:(

Have a great day!

Glad you were able to get the shrubs trimmed! Hope you heal quickly =]
Best wishes to Jacob! Hope he enjoys his classes.
Have a great day!! :)

Nice to see you Track! Hope you are feeling better today!
 
Good afternoon,

It's my last day of vacation, :(, my last vacation until Christmas week. I do have a long weekend off that was meant for the MMC meet-up, even though the meeting was canceled I am not letting work know I don't need that weekend off anymore.
Middle of August is here, which means 8 weeks until my first order of turkeys come in, I will be starting my planning now, only about 13 more weeks until turkey day.
Just resting up on a lazy Sunday, another scorcher outside.
Enjoy your Sunday
Hope your 1st day back to work is a good one - as good as it can be! Nice that you are going to keep your days off work. I would too! :) Crazy to think only 8 weeks until turkey time! Hope it's a good year for you!
 
I hope you folks are having a great Sunday!

As for so many others, we had a stormy and restless night last night. A really wild storm with awful lightning and thunder a little after 2 a.m. When we got back to sleep after that, the electricity went out around 4:15 and stayed out until nearly 8:30 this morning---no A/C, and the temps in the house got up to around 85F. Shortly after the electricity went out, something started beeping loudly every few seconds. It took a while to track it down to a CO2 detector; the battery went dead from the electricity being off. We had to search for the instruction manual to find out how to disable the beep ... finally got back to sleep around 5:30 a.m. Been feeling really "ugh" from the combo of overnight heat and lack of sleep. Trying to rest up to be in shape for work tomorrow.
Hope you had a better night last night! xx
 
Good Sunday evening! I hope everyone could relax and enjoy their day. Just like xmas365, this is my last day of vacation. Could have used another week off. At least in September I will have 2 long weekends. Today I spent 5 hours on my feet preparing for and taking part in the Montreal Pride parade (my feet are dead). Now I'm catching up on the Olympics, relaxing with hubby and Loki.
I hope your 1st day back to work goes well too! My hubby had to go back today, after 11 days off. AND today is his birthday taboot! Have a great day!
