Christmas Countdown - 2017

[Edge612]

Good morning MMC! Merry Pines Day! WOOT!

I brought Gracie to the vet yesterday! She is such a trooper! She lets them do anything to her! Poor girl! Vet says "keep doing what you're doing, Gracie looks great." (hope she didn't jinx her xx...she's never told us that before! ) But now we wait for all the lab reports to come back. They are really good to her there & she's always excited to go - crazy girl!! In the meantime I'll just be praying for all good results!

We have gorgeous weather this morning! Beautiful sunshine - so nice. BUT by 10am we have a wind advisory in effect until 7pm. 50 mph wind gusts! Hard to believe, as nice as it is right now!

Everyone, have a great day!! Oh, and Happy National Women's Day to all MMC women!

My vet has had to put Rollins in a headlock basically to get him to stay still. And it wasn't that he didn't want them touching him it's just that he wanted to play with them.

Had bloodwork done this morning-unpleasant, but doing okay now! Now we wait for answers.

Hope everyone's having a great Pines Eve!! I'm hoping for some fired twinkies and smores made with them tomorrow night!

Sending prayers for good results!!

Good Wednesday morning, Christmas friends!

It's overcast today, but still in the upper 60's right now. I'd love to see a frost, but I thing that's behind us now.

After we got back from taking Elizabeth to dance practice, she and some other girls worked late on a school project that was due today. Jacob has been hired to play in the orchestra for a play in Savannah, so he's been out late every night rehearsing. And Nancy stays up with all of them to make sure things get done. I'm the only one still going to bed on time LOL!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Good morning ~
Happy Pines Day!
I'm heading out soon, Maggie has a groomer appointment. Her cough is pretty bad right now so I may stay there while they groom her. They are a really cute doggy boutique in addition to the grooming services so I'll do some shopping while I wait. She's usually finished in about an hour. I have a couple of errands to run later today and then I'll be working on my daily chores. That's about it. I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day.

Hope Maggie is ok!! Have a good day, HMG!

Great update on Gracie!! Andre LOVES the vet and all the people that talk to him. Leo on the other hand is so terrified I feel so bad. He goes into complete panic mode...lol

Morning MMC! Already heading into mid-week. Been a fast busy 2 days so far. Make it 3 today I am sure. Midterm went fine...even though i have not been putting enough time into the class my math skills and last minute preparation was enough to do pretty good I think on it. Other than that just gearing up for another day at work and then a friend may come for dinner this evening. Have a great Wednesday!

Have a great day, Edge!! Already the middle of the week!

Good Morning, Folks.
The FINAL WEEK has arrived!

Now, siimmer down and don't fret. You haven't gone to sleep like Rip Van Winkle and awakened just 7 days before Christmas.
What we are referencing is the ONE THIRD Milestone to the start of Christmas Season 2017. And that day will arrive on March 15.
Precisely ONE WEEK from today!

Days to the Season: 250
Days to Christmas Day: 292


Mother Nature continues to smile on us here in North Carolina, and we are being rewarded with just about the best possible weather we could expect for early March.
Everything is in perfect sync -- the temperature, the light wind, the ample sun and the lack of precipitation. It just doesn't get any better than this.
Will we get spoiled? (A moot question. We already are.)
Currently, we see that this March 8th has commenced here at 54 degrees.


The 'Pines?
It's ready.
Activities Director Carl?

He's waiting at the door.
The fired twinkies and sweet southern iced tea?
Also waiting at the door (and it's a gooooood batch!).
The entertainment?
Well. Each visitor must grade it by his or her own standards. Come by this evening and be a judge!

And until such time, you have a Wildly Wonderful Wednesday, Everybody!

Thanks Crown!! Enjoy your Wednesday!

Happy Pines Day...a pretty dreary day here but at least it is warming up for now. Just work for me today and I am making a pasta Fagioli soup in the crockpot. Hope you all have a good day!

Sending up prayers for Gracie <3

Keeping Gracie in my prayers

Thank you for the prayers! xx

Good evening,

Just glad the day is over and my day off is here, a long day at work, so much going on and not enough time to do it all. I have nothing planned except laundry and cleaning.
I hope you all had a great day.

Goodnight, everyone

Hope you are having a great day off!!

@Holiday how did it go at the vet with Gracie?

She did well. Vet was happy with what she saw in Gracie, but again...we wait for lab results! xx
Thanks for asking!

Good morning ~
Happy Pines Day!
I'm heading out soon, Maggie has a groomer appointment. Her cough is pretty bad right now so I may stay there while they groom her. They are a really cute doggy boutique in addition to the grooming services so I'll do some shopping while I wait. She's usually finished in about an hour. I have a couple of errands to run later today and then I'll be working on my daily chores. That's about it. I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day.

Praying sweet Maggie does well at the groomer today & her cough improves very soon. Maybe this crazy weather is effecting her too? Poor girl! (((HUGS)))
have a good day!
