Almost the weekend, and we are flying by October. We wait all year for these months...it seems like it takes forever for them to arrive, then in an instant they fly by. Lets enjoy each day!!!

And that's the truth!!
Merry Friday DoubleA

My kitty is declining quickly Kidney failure unfortunately. I'm going home to my parents' house to say goodbye Sunday. He's 17 years old! I will miss him sooooo much. Think of my family. I'm pretty sad.

Everything else is going okay. I'm happy for the years I've had with my kitty and how much joy he's brought to our family!

Hope everyone is doing well!! I really am glad for MMC community!

Awe, I'm so sorry to hear that. Makes me so sad for you! That's so hard! Sending lots of thoughts, & prayers your way! (((HUGS)))

Good luck with your prep also festive!

Happy Friday. Have fun at Toys R Us! I was hoping to do soem Halloween baking this weekend too. Enjoy.



Happy Milestone Day. Glad to hear you are safe from those storms.



Have fun tonight. Good luck with shopping. I still have my youngest birthday to organise for too. It's next week!



Thanks Martine. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.



Thanks Brad. Hope the weather is calming down over there and you guys remain safe. Have a great weekend.



Hearing about your thoughtful idea really puts me in the Christmas Spirit. I hope you collect a lot . Good luck sorting everything out at work.



Thanks SFM. Have a great Friday and weekend.

TGIF, Christmas friends!

It's pretty calm right now, and the sun even peeked out yesterday afternoon. But they (yes, the ubiquitous "they" LOL) are saying the rain should start getting heavy in a few hours, and the wind should be getting up there around 2pm. We'll see. I've put away all the patio furniture and I'll turn off the pool at lunch. It'll be full of leaves for sure!

You should see all the traffic from cars leaving Savannah & Tybee Island heading west! We're about 60 miles west of Savannah, and all the hotels from here to Augusta are full. And, of course, gas prices jumped 25¢ per gallon. LOL

Anyway, we should be fine. I hope all you in close proximity to the storm are safe! And I hope y'all have a great day!

Stay safe!I know people who evacuated tybee. I also know people with a second home in Orlando who went down to prep for the storm and decided to stay since they would have been going down sunday.

I hope all goes well tomorrow. Keeping you and Gracie in my prayers <3

Thanks HMG! You all are the best! Hope all are well at your house this morning!!

Happy Friday!
Happily, our office is closed Monday for Columbus Day, so I'll have a lovely 3-day weekend. Cross you fingers ... maybe I'll get out a little early today.

Last year about this time, on a Friday, one of my co-workers brought in a huge batch of homemade meatballs and the fixings for meatball subs at lunchtime. It was such a huge success, they're having the second annual "Fall Ball" today. I missed the first one because Mr. and I were out of town. So I'm looking forward to seeing if those meatballs are all they're cracked up to be!

I've never worked at a place that had Columbus Day off hmm...fortunately I took the following Monday off though.

Enjoy the meatballs and long weekend!

Happy Friday, Edge!! It is nice to have the sun out and looks like it should be a nice weekend! Enjoy!

Yes not bad...have a good weekend!!

You're welcome Holiday ~
And thank you, we're all doing pretty well.
Continued prayers, I hope the test results are good (((hugs)))

Good evening,

It has been a long day here, I work tomorrow, but have Saturday off. I work Sunday and Monday, and in Massachusetts both days are time and a half for me. It is good with the Disney trip upcoming in a few months we need it.
Everyone affected by the reach of Hurricane Matthew are in my thoughts, I have quite a bit of family down in Florida.

I am heading to bed, my eyelids are quite heavy.

Goodnight, friends

Enjoy your Saturday off! Hope your days at work go well!! xx Merry Friday!

It snowed 15 inches yesterday, I guess Christmas came early.

That is SO hard to even imagine right now! Did you build a snowman?

 

[Holiday]

Merry Friday.
I had to pause there a moment. Is it really Friday?

We had a much better night here. My eldest caught up with some much needed sleep. I was up a few times checking in on him though.

Sorry I have not been able to read much posts lately. I apologise if I am missing anything important.

Have a great Friday.

You never need to apologize! Always nice to see you though!
So glad to hear last night was a better night ~ praying today is even better!
Hope you all have a great Friday!

Good Morning and Happy Friday!!!! Getting ready to head out to work in a few minutes. This is the first weekend that we don't have anything major planned. Might take advantage of it and take the kids to Toys R US so they can write up their Christmas Wish list. Thinking about making some Halloween cut out sugar cookies too. So in the mood to bake

Well will try to stop back by later today.

Sounds like a great weekend. How fun for the kids!! Enjoy!!

********** MILESTONE DAY **********



Good Morning, Fellow Yoyagers on the Good Ship MMC.

And it looks like we have just sailed into another port-of-call on our trip!
Yes, Folks. We have arrived --- at the NINETY PERCENT/HOME STRETCH marker to the Season.
(And you know that we will be at a quick downhill pace from here on to the start of Christmas Season 2016, November 13!)

Days to the Season: 37
Days to Christmas Day: 79


Been watching Hurricane Matthew's relentless passage close to the east coast of Florida for most of the day yesterday and this morning.
(We have relatives down there who wisely evacuated!)
The core of the storm stayed offshore and the winds are down a bit. The Weather Channel indicates much less of an impact than predicted. Good News!
We just have light rain here this morning, which is supposed to continue tomorrow.
Right now, we show 69 degrees and our rain guage shows .2 inch fell last night.


Have a Fabulous Friday Friends.
And may the Force of the Season be with you!

MERRY MILESTONE DAY!!!
MERRY FRIDAY TOO!!

Happy friday! I am subbing this afternoon for a little bit and then I will try to get some of Carolina's birthday gifts. Tonight we are celebrating my cousins birthday.
Prayers for anyone who is being affected by the hurricane. Stay safe. Thankful it will not be as bad as they originally said

Happy Birthday to your cousin. Have fun celebrating!! Merry Friday!

Good Friday Morning MMC! TGIF! After having to work last Saturday this Friday feels extra special being back to normal weekends off. It's a beautiful morning but a bit chilly. Well it's October after all. It still surprises me how suddenly the heat/humidity shut off a few weeks ago and never came back. Going to be a nice mild day though with temps in the mid 70s. Next week looks about 10 degrees cooler! Looking forward to an awesome Autumn weekend.
Have a great TGIF everyone!

Enjoy your Friday & your weekend!!!

Good morning ~
Merry Friday!
Happy Milestone Day!
Not too much going on here today, I have a couple of errands to run and then I'll be working on my daily chores. I'll be heading to my parents house this afternoon for a visit, they just got home from their place in Pennsylvania. That's about it for me. I hope everyone is well, has a nice day and a great weekend ahead!
