[made582]

Good evening,

Just a quick visit tonight, I have a pounding headache tonight. Today is my 7 year MMC anniversary, it seems just like yesterday when I joined due to a very bad case of PCB's. MMC has definitely has made the PCB's more bearable through the years.

I hope you all had a great Thursday.


Goodnight, everyone

Happy Anniversary, Xmas!!! This place wouldn't be the same without you!!

Just a dusting of snow for us today, the 12th day of Christmas...Lights out after tonight but inside, the tree will stay up for a while. Looking forward to the weekend even though this was a short week. LOVE the fact that the season is only 311 days away...I can do that!

Indianapolis wakes up to confirmation that the Colts coach is staying. The snow immediately melts as the anger from the fans warms the temp by 40 degrees.

Sometimes I think they keep the coaches because they don't want to pay them out for not working.

Merry Friday!!!

What are you guys up to this weekend?
I am packing away some final decorations today. I will listen to Christmas music one last time till november. It is a new Christmas record my husband gave for Christmas. It's a special edition green pressed collection of classic favourites!!

Here is a photo. I just love the green!!! Can't wait to display it this christmas!

To use a dated expression ... that is NEAT!

A bit of snow here this morning, just enough to coat everything without making the roads too treacherous. It was nice to listen to Christmas music as I drove through the snow! We're expecting a more substantial storm tomorrow, so I'm rescheduling an appointment so I don't have to brave the roads. Mr.'s car is still in the shop due to an ice-related accident, so I'm nervous about driving in any kind of snow or ice just now. It'll be pretty to see while I'm packing away the decorations ...

Thank you SFM! Appreciate that!
Happy Friday!

TGIF, Christmas friends!

If you find more typos than usual, I apologize. I'm trying to type with a Band-Aid on my index finger, and IT IS MADDENING. LOL

If we're going to get any snow, it's going to have to get a lot colder. It's actually 15° warmer today than it was yesterday morning. It was 50°F at 7:45AM. Not very conducive to snow-making, is it?

I have another big day here at work, so I hope y'all have a great one!

All Christmas decor is packed away for another year & everything put back in it's "normal" place. Christmas was a dud this year for our little family. Nothing bad happened, just not exciting like it has been since DD was born. At 11, we had to tell her the "truth" about Santa (too many kids saying he wasn't real), Elf on the Shelf, & Tooth Fairy (she lost a tooth in the middle of all this too) & it killed the spirit for us this year. Also, it was 65 degrees & we had the doors & window open at my parent's house on Christmas night.

Back to reality! I've been back at work for two days & school started back today for DD. However, we are supposed to get two inches of snow over night & school is already on a two hour delay. I'm pretty sure there won't be school tomorrow. DD will be with my at work tomorrow if that happens. She says she likes coming to work with me & we're a small office, so no one minds. As long as she has an electronic device & headphones, she's good!

Sorry to hear Christmas was a dud this year. You'll have to work on making this year grand again!
Have a happy Friday!

Hope you are having a great night and staying warm!! We only ended up with just over an inch of snow.

Awe bummer! We probably had between a 1/2" & 1". I thought of you when I was outside scraping off our driveway, sidewalk & patio. Gracie was having a BLAST chasing the snow. Too funny!
Hope you have a good weekend ahead!!!

Praying for your mom, Holiday, and also for Gracie. (((HUGS)))
Enjoy the snow!

Thanks M!!!
(((HUGS))) back to you!!!

Thank you Meceka, both went well. My boss went to the Fedex shipment facilities near our work when the package arrived to get it faster. And Loki was shaking like a leaf and whining at the vet, but once the exam and shots were done and we put him down on the floor, he turned back to his barking, excited self.

So glad to hear Loki's appointment went well, poor baby - so scared!
Glad to hear your package arrived also!!

Hello! Good evening yall. I'm finally back home. Seems we've been in traffic all afternoon. I can't wait to have a whole day to spend on here with all of you.
I live in SC & they're calling for snow! Yay! I know some of you are used to it but not here. We may get snow 1x every 2 years or so. We can't wait!
Our town doesn't have the equipment to make the roads drivable so they town usually shuts down completely.
Made chicken fajitas tonight. Can't wait to eat. Yum yum!

I hope you get some snow!!! xx Hope the fajita's were good too!
Have a Happy Friday!

 

[Holiday]

Thank you Holiday! I will keep you and Gracie in my prayers as well {{{hugs}}}

Thanks HMG!!! Keeping you & Maggie in my prayers too!!
Happy Friday!

Hello all. Well we got about an inch of snow. Looks nice, but I want more snow. Tomorrow is Friday! Looking forward to the weekend.

Good night!

I agree - I would take some more!

Good evening yall! I'm familiarizing myself with the site again. You may see a few oopsies from me as I learn again.
Being up this late alone always causes me to want to snack. From May-November we did low carb. Since the holidays we are trying to get back on track...iy yi yi! I'm gonna be good though..
So is everyone as disappointed as I am in the after Christmas sales? I did read about Hallmark from someone here but I've not been yet. Haven't seen the deals like years passed.

Good luck getting back on track!! That can be tough!!!
Have a great day!

Well tonight marks the last night of what I'm considering my official holiday season. I'm back to work in the morning, back to the five day a week Fri-Tue grind for the foreseeable future. It's not that I didn't work throughout Dec, just that it was only scattered days throughout the month, and of course I managed to get "sick" at certain convenient times as well (with a doctor's note to prove it ). Anyways, I'm pretty sure during this first work week back I'll still come home in the evening and watch a Christmas movie or something. Lot of homes around town with lights on and decorations still out so on my way home from work each night I'm sure that'll be enough for me to justify keeping it going. But at this point only time will tell how long that lasts. If I feel like it on my days off next week I'll still make it Christmas time. And I'll continue to see how others are feeling around town and if I see enough lights and decorations still up and if the weather remains cold then that could contribute to my wanting to keep it going even longer. But again, who knows how long that will last and if I'll still feel it. I mean, of course it's always there, but you know what I mean, at some point the active celebration has to go. So we'll see. For now I'm going to just relax and end the night with a good Christmas movie, haven't decided which one yet though...

Have a good night everyone!

Hope your 1st back to work day goes well!! xx
