Christmas Countdown - 2017

[Crown 84]

Good Morning, Perennially Particular Persistent People, Perpetually Pursuing Pleasingly Permanent Perfection.

And is there anything more permanently perfect that the joy we feel as we watch our daily count numbers steadily decline?

Today's figures:
Days to the Season: 253
Days to Christmas Day: 295

TOMORROW, Guys. SINGLE DIGITS to our next marker, the 1/3-of-the-way-to-the-Season Milestone. Exactly TEN days from today.
(Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!)


Another cool day yesterday, to be followed by another one today.
Then, the pre-Spring warmth returns again for tomorrow.
Right now, we are at 36 sunny degrees here in our part of the great MMC Nation.


Have a Super Sunday, Folks!
And enjoy the remainder of your Weekend.

Hi MMC! Hope you all are well! Things are moving right along. Have a doctor's appointment tomorrow for hopefully diagnosing what's causing some strange symptoms for me-thinking it's autoimmune related.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!!!

I didn't realize that, but you're right.
I guess ten is today's lucky number for us MMC'ers.

Mmmmm lasagna. David made that this week. His spaghetti sauce is delicious and it smells so good when he's cooking. Very cold here too HMG, but Loki is still up for long walks in his little sweater. Hope you have a great day and find some nice items at HomeGoods.

Thank you Martine!
The lasagna is is almost finished baking
Hope you're keeping warm and having a wonderful day!

Morning MMC! It's bitter cold here for March 18 degrees. Back to winter I guess for the weekend at least. My Nintendo did arrive as soon as I got home from work. Glad I got it cause I read some people didn't get it from amazon and now, as usual, there's a shortage going around from Nintendo. I hope everyone has a great Saturday!

I hope you are fully enjoying it, my boys want it for the new Zelda game.

 

[xmas365]

It's great. I got Zelda. I can't believe it's sold out everywhere again.

I am still trying to get the NES Classic, the shortages are ridiculous, probably be that way for a while for the Switch too.

Good evening,

Popping in before bed tonight, I fell asleep last night and didn't make my daily stop.
I got a nice surprise with "Home Alone" being on CMT right now, so I am watching it. My wife has been watching the Harry Potter marathon all day and to be honest I am Pottered out, she has wanted to have a Harry Potter marathon since visiting the Wizarding World of HP last week. I was in awe of that, just an amazing re-creation of the world's there.
Back to work in the am.

I hope you all had a great weekend.

Goodnight, everyone

I am. I hope you get it for them. Zelda is like a whole world.

 

[Edge612]

Yeah I couldn't get that either. I think with that they didn't realize younger people would want it so they made a limited edition almost. I do think you will be able to get a Switch much easier this spring/summer if you want to than a Classic.

Good Morning MMC !

Morning! Weekends go too fast don't they? It was a very cold weekend though. I hope we don't have one that cold for a long time now. It was colder than most January and February weekends. March can never decide if it wants to be winter or spring. The switch was fun and got some errands done but now back to work for 5 days. Next weekend actually is the shortest weekend of the year as we have to turn the clocks ahead 1 hour. At least that means it will be getting warmer and lighter out! Have a great day!

Good morning MMC

Wishing everyone a nice day and a great week ahead!!!

Good Morning, Merry Monday Maniacs.

And the question we have to ask ourselves is, do we have "latent maniacal tendencies" when it comes to our beloved Christmas Season?
Are we in fact Merry Maniacs?

Well, let's judge by our reaction to the latest count figures:
Days to the Season: 252
Days to Christmas Day: 294

Hmmm..... I AM feeling just a little maniacal about now.
OK, let's try this on for size: We are now down to SINGLE DIGITS to the one-third marker to Christmas Season 2017. NINE DAYS!
(Oh, Yeah! And now those maniacal tendencies are no longer latent!)


Chilly again yesterday but that should be it for a while. Today should see us well into the 60's, with 70's on tap for tomorrow and Wednesday.
We have started off on the cold side here this morning at 36 degrees, but it should be warming up fairly quickly.


Have a Marvelous Monday, Everyone.
And I hope your week is off to an outstanding start!
