Christmas Countdown - 2017

[Holiday]

Way to hot now!!! Next time I want to get some Key Limes and try em out.

Yum! I will take one of those too!

Good Thursday morning, Christmas friends!

Success! Elizabeth is now a licensed driver! As soon as we got home, she asked to drive herself to youth night at church...and by asking, I mean she was almost demanding LOL.

Not long after she left, Nancy and I went to the local seafood place to meet her family for dinner. There was a bad wreck in town and we were a little worried for Elizabeth. It wasn't her, but it really was sad. It seems a man with a history of serious diabetic problems "zoned out" while driving, and struck several cars before hitting one head-on, killing one young lady. Bless her heart. And, if it's true that he was ill, I'm sure he feels terrible today. Sending prayers for all of them.

Jacob is singing with The University Singers tomorrow night, something else is happening Saturday (not sure), and he has another recital on Sunday. Run, run, run!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Congrats to Elizabeth!!
Prayers to the man & all the families involved in that tragic accident. So sad! I bet that did make you nervous!!
Have a good day Brad!

Send them down south when your finished with them. I need some garden help, too!

You got it! They are good little helpers...though they are going to be pretty busy for awhile with 8 Great Dane puppies to take care of!

My sister sent a picture of snow on my nieces patio furniture this past Tuesday morning in SD!

I just talked to Snowflake and they are getting snow right now. Crazy to think about after the warmth we've had.

 

[made582]

I wish Nancy would let me open the windows at night. Her allergies won't allow it, though. These pecan trees and pine trees are just too much for her.

I hope your weather warms up for you! Enjoy your day!

I've had mine open the last few days and have been paying for it. I can't make myself turn on the a\c yet though.

Happy Milestone Day!!!!!!! Nothing really to report from here. Just the same old things.

No kidding!!! It's hard to imagine!! I sure hope we are done with snow for the next SEVERAL months!!!

And speaking of snowflake - she said to tell everyone on the countdown "Hi"! She's been a busy girl!

Same old things isn't always a bad thing! Hope you are staying cool until it's time to turn on the AC. At least today is a little cooler to open windows!!

She is doing great! My aunt just got her back yard fenced in so she can run wild now. Watching her push the girl's ball around it with her nose is adorable.

 

[Iteachpercussion]

Well that sounds exciting!!!
We had some good helpers in our garden Monday night...

That is great!
I hope we are able to get some things started this weekend. We won't plant for a couple of more weeks probably, but we have a lot of work to do before then.

Happy Thursday HMG. Here in the great mid-west we are currently at 30 degrees (almost time again for a sweatshirt). Have a safe journey this morning and a wonderful visit with your Mom. Take care and get ready for May...

********** MILESTONE DAY **********



Good Morning, Folks.

Hey. I know what you're thinking. It was a Milestone Day yesterday. Why is the banner still there?
Well, there's a very good reason.
This is the second day of Back-To-Back Milestone Markers!

Days to the Season: 200
Days to Christmas Day: 242

And yes, there is no need for referral to our marker chart. The first count number tells the tale. It is indeed the TWO HUNDRED DAY SEASON WINDOW, and tomorrow will see us start a ONE HUNDREDS LEVEL Season count.
(Wow! Already to the 100's. So hard to believe!)


The nice, DRY weather is back and the leftover water from the last three days worth of precipitation is disappearing fast. The temp was nice and mild yesterday, as well.
Should be another good one today, and we have commenced things here at 66 degrees in the capital city.


Have a Thrilling Thursday, Fellow Holidayans!

Thank you, Crown. Happy Milestone Day to you, too!

Thank you so much Meceka ~
We're doing good, hope all is well with you and your furbabies too. Sending hugs your way <3

You're welcome, HmG. I'm so glad your fur babies are doing well! {{{HUGS}}}

Happy 2nd Milestone Day!! We are having yet another dreary day!! Ugh....where are you sun? Oh well it is going to warm up so that is a good thing. Just work for me today and looking forward to the weekend. Not many plans but relaxing works for me! Have a great day!

I hope the sun came out in your area and that you are having a great day!

Thank you for the prayers M! My MIL said she couldn't keep my FIL out of the tractor yesterday. He was in an enclosed cab & he wore a dust mask, but she's hoping he isn't going to pay for that today. Stubborn!
Thanks for the hugs...sending hugs back to you & Palmer & all your fur kids!
Clothes on the line all got dry!
Have a wonderful day!!!

You're welcome, Holiday. I'm glad your FIL was feeling well enough to be out on the tractor ~ praying it didn't make him pay today. Glad you got all your clothes dried, too. {{{HUGS}}}
