Christmas Countdown - 2016

[Holiday]

Good evening all my Christmas loving friends !

wow, day went by fast ! I get a day off and spend the whole day doing more work than when I go into work LOL.
LittleCS and I entered a few items in the fall fair this year. I have not done that since I was a kid. Will let you know later how we made out.
It was a warm one again today but the evenings and nights are cool. Fall officially starts tomorrow !
I am downloading all the pictures from my old computer onto drop box and it says there is still 11 min to go. The old machine is doing strange things so I want to get them off before I loose them (something I should of done a while ago)
I was going to put together a lunch for work tomorrow only discovered I have nothing to do that with. Well I guess I get to buy my lunch which is kind of weird since I always buy my lunch just make it at home most of the time.
Turkeys are on sale so I want to get a couple tomorrow. Thanksgiving is only 2 weeks away. I think I will have some friends over and make it an all day party.
Bar on download has gone from green to red, I am assuming that is not a good thing. Still saying 11 min, I may be at this all night this way .
I think I will just let my son work on it tomorrow, I am tired and trade shifts with a co worker so am now in at 8am instead of 1pm.
You all have a great night !

Good luck at the fall fair! And getting your pics downloaded!! xx
Seems odd to see Thanksgiving in TWO weeks! How exciting. It sounds like a great plan you have!!
Hope your day at work goes well! Merry Friday Eve!

Good morning, everyone!

Happy first day of Fall! It's the final season before our favourite day of the year! And, of course, the Season that includes our season, the Christmas Season! Seeing all your Fall photos that welcome in the new season made it much easier to wake up today.

I am up a little early considering there is no work. No teaching positions today at all, really. Tomorrow, I have to tutor. I might have a tutoring shift on Saturday or Sunday as well. Next week, I have four days already booked. Not bad! It is all starting to pickup.

Well, I should get started on a few things. I hope everyone has a wonderful first day and you're all embraced by some cool air and falling leaves, although it seems that both are a little later this year than usual - at least they are in Canada's Capital.

Have a great Thursday, everyone!

Enjoy your day off brent. It's great that you have a lot of teaching positions booked in the days ahead. Here too in the Montreal area it's been unseasonably warm so not a lot of colours on the trees yet.

Good evening,

Autumn is just about here, the Boston Bruins training camp opens tomorrow, the Red Sox are rolling, just a few games away from clinching a playoff spot. Things are going well right now, slowly starting to feel like the beginning of the best time of the year.
Halfway through my workweek, just keeping chugging along here.

I hope you all had a great day
Goodnight, everyone

Happy Autumn Xmas...have a great Thursday!

Happy First Day of Autumn

Good morning all. Just home for lunch at the moment and then back to the fun until 7AM (4:04AM currently). Then I'll get back and catch up on all the happenings from yesterday afternoon and evening. But, while I am here...

Good morning Thursday

Happy Thursday Solice!

Good Morning, dear friends~
Merry Autumn!!!
It's a stormy & chilly morning here, I wish I could go back to bed and sleep in, then get up and bake and watch seasonal movies all day! Sounds cozy, doesn't it?
Harlowe is showing a few more signs of improvement, and I had a better night as well. Thank you for the prayers.
Wishing you all a glorious day of Fall magic!!

Happy Fall Snowflake...great news about Har and I hope you are feeling better!

Good Thursday morning everyone. Yesterday we celebrated the store's 10th anniversary. Employees loved the souvenir album, it brought back lots of memories for them. The buffet was great, the cakes delicious, happy to have done it right. Now a long work day ahead for me, to make up for the work I didn't have time to finish yesterday because of the celebrations. Have a great day everyone!

Have a great day...sounds like a fun day yesterday!

Good morning ~
Merry Thursday!
Happy First Day of Autumn! It's officially here. How exciting, I have that warm and cozy feeling. So much much to look forward to. Wishing everyone a bright and beautiful season filled with much happiness!
Have a beautiful day <3

Have a wonderful Thursday HMG!!

Kim and I fell asleep early last night... She was watching Chicago PD and I was watching the Canada/Team Europe hockey game. I only say this because we initially fell asleep on the couch and woke up around 11:30 to go to bed.

Then, I had a scary dream! I dreamt that the Blossoms thread had been open for a couple days and I didn't even know! How scary is that? It's practically a nightmare!

I just checked here, and it is all good. Crown has yet to debut the Most Wonderful Thread of the Year! ... Although I have a sneaking suspicion that his next trip to Crabtree will be to prepare for the thread's unveiling.

Have a great day Brent and yes that is a scary dream!

Good Thursday Morning MMC! Happy Friday Eve! Happy Autumn! It's a beautiful morning out. We officially turn from summer to autumn today. Farewell summer but welcome to the best season of all. Just another day at work and thinking about the weekend ahead. I'm supposed to work next Saturday October 1 (well at least half a day not all day hopefully). It's only the 2nd Saturday this year I'll work and probably the last. Only doing it cause 2 of my coworkers got picked for jury duty the same time. That'll just make me enjoy THIS weekend coming even more!
Have a great Thursday everyone and Happy Autumn!

Happy First day of Fall Edge! About working Saturday, I work every other weekend and it does make me look forward to my weekends off even more. Enjoy your day.

Hello and good evening everyone. It seems like free time keeps getting less and less. This has been a busy school year with lots to do. Then, my laptop died over the weekend. But, I now have a NEW laptop. That was a chunk of change I did not really want to spend, but I need to have a good working computer, so I really did not have a choice.

Anyway, I hope everyone is doing well. I will try to be better about dropping by and keeping up. It is hard to believe we are so far into September. Tomorrow is the first day of Spring, however, it is still going to be almost 90 degrees.
I just want cool weather!

Did someone say 1st day of spring?? I hope it's spring 2016 cuz I hope I didn't miss Christmas 2016!!

Nice to see you ITP! Sorry to hear about your laptop! Hope your loving your new one!
Have a Fantastic 1st day of Fall!!

 

[Holiday]

Good night MMC! Have a great night and a good morning! I am subbing in the morning for a pre school disabled class and then I will be off to my other job at night. It will be a long day for me

Hope your busy day goes well! Merry Friday Eve! Happy 1st day of fall!

Good Morning, Final Quarter Approachers!

And without any doubt, we are indeed nearing the last of four quarters on our voyage back to Christmas Day 2016.

Days to the Season: 52
Days to Christmas Day: 94

In fact, that next marker is actually now LESS THAN HALF A WEEK away and closing rapidly!


The remains of Julia continue to linger off our coast and we had off and on agan rain nearly the entire day. Cool temperatures, too.
The same conditions could possibly continue for today and maybe even tomorrow before the storm finally decides to depart.
We are at 71 rather wet degrees right now here in the capital city.


Have a Thrilling Thursday, Everyone!

Thanks, Crown! Have a great day.

That deep dish pizza looks so good. My wife and I want to go back to Chicago just for a real deep dish pie. We have Uno''s but it is nowhere near as good as the ones in Chicago.

Might cost an arm & a leg but you can order online!

Merry Morning all,

The season is turning here. There is a brisk chill in the air mixed with the scent of pine and wood smoke.

Wishing everyone a cosy and joy filled fall season.

I can't believe it is only 8 days till October !!
