Enjoy your day off. Hope your work weekend goes well!
Happy Birthday to your hubby! Have fun @ hibachi tonight! Hope he has a great day! Enjoy your day off. And I hope the 1st game goes well!
So very true. What a great sacrifice!Happy Veterans Day, Christmas friends, and thanks to all those who have served!
My dad served two tours in Viet Nam, and I'm always amazed that he enlisted & was willing to part with us for so long. Service to one's country is a special gift that should never go unrecognized.
Jacob's band played last night, and for the first time, Nancy & I didn't go. We've just had so much happening that we were too tired to stay up so late.
And Jacob has been offered the chance to play guitar for an up-and-coming country music artist tonight. Her regular guitarist is not feeling well, and Jacob is friends with her brother, so he recommended Jacob. The gig is in Gainsville, FL, and Nancy doesn't want him to go so far away, but I've convinced her that it's ok LOL. It'll be a great opportunity for Jacob, with at least some bragging rights!
Jim and I are having lunch with mama today. I hope y'all have a great Friday!
Wow, how awesome for Jacob. I bet he is excited!!! Good luck to him!
Enjoy lunch with Jim & mama today!!
Thanks Martine. Hubby is going to our HS Football playoff game tonight, so Gracie & I have the house to ourselves! My friend & her daughter may come over, but should be a nice 'n quiet night.
Those darn husbands! Ha ha!!
I'm glad you were able to sleep in a little more than usual!
Rudolph better be doing some stretching.Crazy, huh?
Merry Friday,
It is a little scary that we are almost mid way through November!
I hope you guys are enjoying the lead up to Thanksgiving and your plans are going smoothly.
While I was tucking my youngest in bed last night he said Momma, tomorrow is a special day. I asked him why is that thinking it was something to do with school. He then goes on to tell me how we have to remember the soldiers who died. I was so touched that he understands the importance at only 5yrs.
Just had to share that

Have a great day everyone.
Happy Friday!
That is so sweet and thoughtful of your son, bless him. You must be so proud <3
Special Post
Each Christmas season, I look forward to "catching the Spirit." To feeling that tingle of joy in my soul and to smiling, to finding peace on earth and goodwill towards all, to relaxing and feeling just for a moment that all is right and will be alright with the world.
For whatever reason, the last two years, it's been hard to find that. A loved one passed. My job doesn't allow my husband or I to have a full holiday off really ever anymore. I've seen too much in the world to really "let go." Like the carol "I heard the bells on Christmas Day," I felt the lyrics, "And in despair, I bowed my head. There is no peace on earth, I said. For hate is strong and mocks the song of peace on earth, goodwill to men."
But this season, I am determined. The world needs Christmas' powerful Spirit more than ever. I think we each need the Spirit more than ever, too. I have been working to open my heart to the joy of Christmas for some time now, and soon, it will be here. So soon.
So, I encourage you to do the same thing. Acknowledge what is difficult in your life and the world. But don't let it steal your joy of the season. Open your heart to the Spirit of Christmas and find joy that you thought was forgotten. Not everything will go perfectly or even the way it should, but that is what our MMC community is here for. We are here to support, and to remind each other that the Spirit of Christmas is a powerful thing, a powerful force that can bring us together and help us be more joyful and hopeful as we approach the season and the day itself. Find the moments of joy, hold onto them, and celebrate with everything you are and everything you've got inside of you. You may be surprised how the Christmas Spirit stays with you all through the year.
Let's celebrate, friends. Let's celebrate.
Amen!
Thank you for the honest and beautiful post, DYHWIH.
Happy Friday, HmG!
Hope you find the perfect car for you, and a great deal too.
Have a great day!

Everyone, have a wonderful Veterans Day weekend!!! I'm going to try to log on to read the special posts, but tomorrow will be a busy day. I'm meeting the lake girls to do some Christmas shopping tomorrow morning. There is a German Family Christmas going on in a nearby town, also the Christmas open house at my favorite craft barn! This all happens to be right on the way to my future nieces bridal shower so I will go there on my way home....and then the Buckeyes play at 3:30! Whew! All good stuff though!
Take care everyone!!!
