Good morning ~
We only ended up getting a dusting of snow. Kind of glad I didn't have to shovel, I'm dragging my feet this morning. Not too much going on, typical day of errands and chores. I'm going to visit my parents as well, they were in Florida for a week and just got home. That's about it for me. Hope everyone is well. Have a great day <3

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!

TGIF MMC! Time to start remembering how awesome Fridays are. Time to start appreciating the weekend again. I mean now that we're back full-time working. It's been a good week so far. A shorter week still but still seems pretty long being 3 days and now going on 4! Imagine what a 5 day week will feel like next week lol. It's going to be a cold weekend here. A good hibernation weekend. We have about an inch of snow that fell over night. Just enough to make everything look like Christmas. The lights around town are still on. I'm appreciating each day of them. My tree will stay up the next 3 weeks lit! I am enjoying it. Well time to get going so I can get to work and start to think about the weekend coming.
Have a great Friday!

Love that you're keeping your tree up for 3 weeks yet. I was planning to take mine down Mon or Tues but I'm still really enjoying it. We'll see!
Have a good day!

Good Friday morning! Working the afternoon/evening shift today. Two days away from our annual inventory, things are getting serious. I'll be spending part of the day today and tomorrow training employees on using the scanners for inventory. Looking forward to it being done and over with. We didn't take down our tree yesterday as planned, we had too many errands to run and other priorities. Looks like Monday will be the day. It's currently -14°C/7°F here with the windchill and it's going to be that cold/colder for many days to come. Wish I could stay inside in the warmth. Everyone have a great day!

I hope inventory goes well!!!!! Stay warm!!!! Enjoy that tree!

Good Morning MMC

very very chilly, no cold, here with a wind chill o -23c (-9f) van door frozen yesterday , hoping it will be fine this morning.
Hope you all have a great day

We have similar weather. 1º this morning real feel -9!

Hope you didn't have any problems with the van! Stay warm!

Good Morning, Christmas Pursuers.

And along the way, we chase Milestones.
Speaking of them, the first one is not very far away at all.

Days to the Season: 311
Days to Christmas Day: 353

In fact, that marker, the 300 day Season Window, is a scant 11 days ahead, now. SINGLE DIGITS from the day after tomorrow!
How can we be this close this soon?
Well, the secret is in the dept of the Season. The countdown to Christmas Season 2017 actually began back on November 13 of last year.
<< Ah, Hah. So that's it, Crown! >>
Indeed, little voice. Indeed.


All eyes are on the sky as we continue under an official winter storm warning.
Four to Six inches of snow (that IS snow and not ice, fortunately) is the predicted accumulation and the event is supposed to begin late today.
Right now, we are still well above freezing at 40 degrees and should stay that way until late this evening.


Have a Fabulous Friday Friends, in keeping with the weather situation!

Enjoy the snow & stay safe!

Went to bed last night and woke up this morning with a few inches of snow....ok...maybe two. But enough to shut down school and businesses. I know, I know....some of you just laughed hysterically at that....but our little communities and counties don't invest in much snow prevention equipment or materials seeing as how we go some years with no snow....we got more last night (2 inches) that we did last year!

Well, I'm going to enjoy a day off...even if it isn't needed. I just got back from a 2 week break!!!! There are a few perks to this school business....

Have a fun day off!!!

Two weeks ago I was just starting my holiday vacation from work. Was rushing around shopping, watching xmas movies, and taking in the season. Now I'm reminiscing, but still watching the movies Last night I spent more time watching the DVR xmas commercials than the movie itself. Still finding some xmas lights on houses. Not many though. Luckily, the house directly across the street still has theirs up. Good people!

Hard to believe it was already 2 weeks ago I was just starting my 11 days off. How did they go so fast?!?!

Good morning! We had a two hour delay for school this morning. A combination of the snow from yesterday and single digit temps with windchills around -15. It was a welcomed surprise to get the call. However, it is about time to head to school, but hey, it's FRIDAY!

Everyone have a great day!

Happy Friday!!!

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.

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!

Doesn't really seem like it was a short week!! Enjoy your weekend!

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 ...

Stay safe & enjoy the snow!!

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!

I will pray for your index finger!!!
I have never seen snow at 50º - but I hope you do!
Have a great day Brad!

Have a nice visit with your parents!!! What were they thinking coming back from Florida to snow?? LOL

Good Morning MMC...happy Friday. We woke up to couple of inches of snow and my kids had a 2hr delay. We have a winter storm watch for tomorrow into Sunday...they are saying maybe 4-6 inches of snow. We don't have too much going on except a basketball game at 1 so we will see what develops. Hope you all have a great day and weekend!

 

[Holiday]

Everyone, have a WONDERFUL, & SAFE weekend!!! Stay WARM!!!

TGIF!!!! Got about 1 1/2 to 2 inches last night .. our big puppy was fun to watch as she tried to bite and eat the snow as it was falling. Suppose to get more snow tomorrow and depending on what news channel you watch we are suppose to get anywhere from flurries to a few inches so we shall see. Other then DH having to work for a few hours tomorrow morning no plans for the weekend .. I am taking it as a perfect weekend to cook/bake and watch movies

Have a great day!

Awesome! I do that too, where I just don't fast forward the commercials when watching a DVR from December cuz I like remembering the bombardment of Christmas commercials that come in during the month. It never ceases to amaze me how literally overnight, from Christmas day into the day after Christmas, all of that just goes away completely (other than a few car commercials with Christmas themes that still run through New Years).

Doesn't really seem like it was a short week!! Enjoy your weekend!

Cause we got spoiled 4 days seems like a "long" week now.
