Christmas Countdown - 2016

[HomemakinGirl]

Enjoy your trip to the farm HMG. Any chance we get some pictures of the front of your house all decorated? Have a great day

Thank you Martine! I didn't go crazy with the decorating outside, just some pumpkins & mums. But I think it looks pretty out there, I'll try and post a picture tomorrow. Hope you had a nice day <3

Happy Saturday Evening. I'm glad your day was great looking from the very start. I had some morning plans, but too many "short" sleep sessions this week ended with a 10 hour session. Oh well, I'm sure I needed it. Last night and then off for two. Enjoy the remainder of your weekend HMG.
Have a blessed night.

Good night to everyone ... Another Sunday coming tomorrow to enjoy.

A fine day ... we got some recording done, so I'll have a pile of audio editing to dig into tomorrow.

I recorded a Christmas story for LibriVox a few weeks back. Their server crashed yesterday, and they lost everything posted or uploaded before September 15th and were unable to recover it. So I'll dig up my file and re-upload it for their 2016 Christmas Collection.

Good morning ~
Happy Saturday!
It's going to be a beautiful day, sunny with a high of 63. We're currently at 43 degrees.
I have to make a big food shopping trip this morning and work on some chores around the house. I plan on taking a ride to a local farm later this afternoon to pick up some more pumpkins and mums for the front of the house. I bought mums a couple of weeks ago, I thought they were dark red. I realized they were that bronze/orange color after they started to open. I love them, they're beautiful but I should pay closer attention next time!
Anyway, I hope everyone is well and has a beautiful weekend!

Good evening, HmG~
Hope you had a fun & beautiful day, HmG!

Good Saturday morning! Woke up early but was able to fell back asleep for a few extra minutes. It's a gorgeous sunny morning here. I have an appointment at the hairdresser and I need to buy a few things at the mall. Still hoping to see some signs of Christmas but stores here are in no hurry it seems. Wishing everyone a great weekend ahead!

Hope you're having a nice weekend, Martine~
How is Loki?

Good Morning, Seasonites.

And indeed, we are creeping pretty close now to our Season -- the one we wait all year for and count down to.

Today's numbers:
Days to Halloween: 16 (Two weeks from the day after tomorrow!)
Days to the Season: 29 (Four weeks from tomorrow!)
Days to Christmas Day: 71 (Ten weeks from tomorrow!)
(Time is slipping away, Guys!)


Nice again yesterday with calm winds, moderate temps, plenty of sun and no rain. Low humidity to boot.
Sweeeeeet!
Should be a good weekend too, with cool starts but mildly warm afternoons.
We are currently stationed at 56 degrees here in our sector of the MMC Nation.


Have a Sensational Saturday, Everyone!

Thanks, Crown~
Have a merry weekend!

We are spending our day at home now. Carolina got sick all over me right after I got ready to head for the store. Hoping it's a fluke but want to be safe and not risk her getting sick in the car or anywhere else. Have a great day!

Hope Carolina is doing much better, nmc~ prayers.

Happy Saturday everyone,
How is your weekend going?

We took a Isaac to a toy shop to spend some birthday money he got from relatives this morning. It really put me in the mood for Christmas. to top it all off, there was a shop next door that had AMAZING decorations! I love sleighs but can never really find any sleigh decorations. Well they had at least 4 different ones. I am holding out on buying as I expect they will have a sale soon. I also love nutcrackers and I saw a really nice big one too. So many things I want from there!!!!!

Sounds lovely! Sleighs are beautiful.
Have a great rest of your weekend, friend.

To all my MMC friends, I wish you all a good night filled with pleasant dreams. Did not get to everyone today, but I will make up for it tomorrow. An extra measure of blessings to those I did miss. Time to head out for my last day in this cycle.

Mike and I ended up watching Twin Peaks on nextflix. We started it a few years ago but never finished so we restarted it tonight. I was like 2 when it first came out. Can't wait to see he new season of it

Twin Peaks is a classic! I watched it again last year in preparation for it's return. There was also a movie made a few years back.

 

[Festive Spirit]

Merry Sunday to all.
Dark, cold gloomy out. Perfect day to stay in but o such luck for me. I am heading to work.
Can't wait for my 3 day weekend off at the end of the month.
Have a cosy day everyone.

 

[Festive Spirit]

I hope he had a LOVELY day!! And I hope you did too!

Thinking of you DW. I hope your visit back home is going well. I know it will be hard with Winston not being there. Praying for courage and comfort for you. Take good care.

 

[ClaireLovesChristmas]

Morning all! Dull and raining here this morning, perfect weather to cuddle up, watch films and eat comfort food!

For anyone in the U.K. Who has Morrisons deliver their shopping (like me haha) they have opened up their xmas delivery slots! Mine is booked for the 23rd Dec!!
Hope the next few weeks go quick, I'm itching to get my decorations out!

Going to have a wonder around the forums, have a great Sunday everyone x

How is Loki?



Thanks, Crown~
Have a merry weekend!



Hope Carolina is doing much better, nmc~ prayers.



Sounds lovely! Sleighs are beautiful.
Have a great rest of your weekend, friend.

Thanks snowflake! She seems to be doing much better. She is still sleeping now so hopefully when she wakes up she feels her best

Twin Peaks is a classic! I watched it again last year in preparation for it's return. There was also a movie made a few years back.

I haven't seen the movie but I will make sure we see it before we watch the new season. I felt like it was spooky enough to watch right before Halloween. Have a great day festive!

 

[nmc42088]

Good morning everyone! I will be working this am and then I will head over to Mikes house to see his family for the rest of the day. It is supposed to be in the low 70s today and get warmer in the next couple of days. I would like it to feel more like fall than spring or summer.

 

[HomemakinGirl]

Good morning ~
Merry Sunday!
Wishing everyone a wonderful day!
Thoughts and prayers <3

I loved Twin Peaks when it came out all those years ago, but it was really intense at times. I will definitely check out the new series but I fear it won't be the same without its director David Lynch.

Good Evening Martine. Came home from work (7AM), went to bed and got up late (7:30PM). That's ok though since day five of my work week begins in a couple of hours. Hopefully your Satuday went as well as it looked in the morning.
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

My day was punctuated by many naps actually. Hubby wasn't feeling well and feverish and sleeping next to me most of the day so I would fall in and out of sleep trying to catch up on our dvr. Hope your last work night of the week flies by so you enjoy your days off.
