Christmas Countdown - 2016

[Holiday]

Good evening,

I made it through another busy weekend at work. I now have tomorrow and Tuesday off.
I was able to watch the Bengals game after I got home, won a squeeker against Edge's Jets, (sorry Edge)it was a good game.
I can barely keep my eyes open at this point.

Goodnight, everyone

Enjoy your days off!!!

Merry Monday!

I'm feeling a little wobbly this morning about Isaac's first full day of school.
Last week was only half days so it still felt like nursery. I know he will be okay .

I'll be back after the school run.

Hope he had a great day! And you too!

Good Morning.

Another week has arrived.
A week that will see us safely to our next Milestone AND to a new beginning!

Days to the Season: 62
Days to Christmas Day: 104

The Milestone?
It's the 100-day Christmas Day Window.
The new beginning?
Why, the start of a DOUBLE-DOUBLE DIGIT COUNT, which will carry us into the fast lane of our journey to the 2016 Holiday Season!


Well, I was expecting a weather improvement yesterday but was somewhat disappointed as the rather warm, humid conditions continued for another day.
But not to worry, the weather service says nice weather is just around the corner this week.
And we all know that if the weather service says it, it must be so.
(Uh-huh.)
This new week morning has commenced here at 73 degrees under a bright, sunny sky.


Have a Marvelously Merry Monday, Folks.
And I hope your week is off to a great start!

Hope the weather cools off soon for you!
Have a great day!

Good morning everyone. I hope you all have a wonderful Monday and week!

Good morning Ryan! Hope you have a wonderful Monday & week as well!

Good morning ~
Happy Monday!
Hope everyone had a nice weekend. It flew by for me. We attended a 30th birthday party for my nephew on Saturday. Still can't believe he's 30, I feel so old! I was just a teenager when he was born, the years have flown by.
Yesterday we ended up bringing Maggie in to the animal hospital because she was fussing with her paw. The doctor said it looked like it was a bit inflamed but couldn't find a reason why. They sent me home with a topical spray to give her some relief. She's already on antibiotics in case there's something else going on. She hasn't touched it so far today, so fingers crossed the topical spray is taking care of whatever was bothering her. Another weekend has gone by and my husband still didn't take my Autumn decorations down. By the time we got home from the animal hospital yesterday he had too many things to take care of around the house. I didn't want to go in to the attic myself, but I may have to.
Not too much going on today, typical day of errands and chores. The temperatures have cooled off a bit, it was beautiful when I woke up this morning. It's going to warm up to a high of 75 today.
I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!

Good morning all you holiday chasers! I hope everyone had a safe and wonderful weekend. It was a hot one here in Maryland on Saturday. I stayed in all of the morning and part of the early afternoon before London and I ventured out to do a bit of grocery shopping. Lizzybeth had gone to Six Flags with a friend and her family. As soon as we hit the outdoors it was if we were melting. Sunday however, turned out just beautiful somewhere around 80 degrees. We had am service at church and our choir sang for the first time this season. We had a very special service honoring all first responders in honor of 9/11. Several men and women from our community who work in the police, fire and ambulance services came as well as nurses - several of which were in our own church family received certificates and gift cards recognizing all that they do including putting their lives on the line for the sake of their communities in need. Then we had our church picnic that afternoon around 2pm and we couldn't have asked for better weather. No oppressive sun, humidity or rain to worry about. Just simply fantastic weather. My baked beans were a huge hit. I made a 9x13 casserole dish of them and let me tell you it was one of the few dishes that was completely scraped clean. I'll definitely have to put this recipe up for other potlucks.

This morning the air felt great, slight cool breeze and plenty of sun. With the football season starting yesterday and cool temps in the air I should think that true fall weather and the season is really just around the corner.

Enjoy your day everyone and be blessed.

Good morning ladybug! I'm glad to hear the beans were a hit & you had a nice time. Enjoy your Monday!

Good Monday Morning MMC! What a beautiful morning! It's perfect weather out today. A little chilly (well compared to the summer it makes you feel chilly). Rollins had a lot of fun this weekend and actually was sleeping early on Sunday evening. He must have tired himself out (I know he tires me out). Anyway, I love this weather and it definitely makes me happy on a Monday. Speaking of I better get some work done .
Have a great Monday everyone! Hope you enjoyed the 1st weekend of football!

I'm glad Rollins had a fun weekend! And you too. Enjoy the weather.

A full day to say the least. But those that come with lasting memories are always welcome. I will have a busy Monday and see if I can't find time to take Connie out for either breakfast or lunch.
Have a great day and week!

Indeed!
I hope you get (or got) to go out for breakfast or lunch. Enjoy the bbq or slow cooked meal later!
Have a great day!

I hope Maggie's paw is better soon. Sounds like you had a hectic weekend. I was meant to get Mr F to bring down some decorations from our loft (attic) this weekend too! Didn;t get around to it either. Hope you can decorate soon.

Good Monday morning, Christmas friends!

What a long, hot, busy weekend! I got out and did all the edging Saturday morning, and that's a job! We're on a 1 acre corner lot with curbing and sidewalks, so I was out there till early afternoon. Then Jacob and I went hunting, sitting in the 95° sun with little to show for it! Then I went home to finish cleaning up from all the edging. After all that, I soaked in the pool till I was all shriveled up.

After church and lunch with mom yesterday, I went hunting again. I don't typically like to hunt on Sunday, but it was the last day of this short "first" season. Anyway, it was another 95° day with no breeze and no birds. Whew! Back in the pool for me!

I watched most of the 9/11 name-reading before and after church. 15 years ago, and I still remember it like it was yesterday. Bless their hearts. This old world deserves some peace, seriously.

It's supposed to cool to the upper 80's this week!!


I hope y'all have a great day!

Sorry for your -no- luck hunting. I'm sure the pool felt great!

Our friends daughter performed in the Tribute at Lincoln Center yesterday morning - table of silence. I was able to watch it via youtube. There was one girl that was possibly here - it's hard to tell! So many beautiful tributes yesterday. Sad day!

Happy New Week!

The weekend wasn't quite long enough to suit me, but it seldom is ...

Agree!! Merry Monday!

It's nice and cool at the shore. May not get to sit on the beach but at least we will be able to do the boardwalk. So glad it feels like fall

Have a great time!
