GM all...happy Pines! My youngest is home with a 101 fever...I hope it is not the start of strep! A few kinds in her class have had it so I know it is going around. She has her dance recital this week so she can't be sick! Just a regular day od work for me and I just wish we would see some sun for more than one day in a row! Hope you all have a good day.

Oh no! I hope your daughter is feeling better quick & has no problem making the dance recital! xx
Have a good day SFM!!!!

Love this pic!! Gets me even more in the spirit! Have a great day, Holiday!

Love this one too! So nostalgic!

It certainly is crazy that it's 7 months till Christmas Eve as holiday and others have mentioned. I feel like we just said it was 11 when we reached January 24 and said how fast the 1st month went.

It goes faster every year!!!

How are things doing there? I saw a report yesterday evening that said they had reason to expect a second attack. I certainly hope that, and ANY future attacks, will be avoided.

Hoping to be in shape to enjoy the Memorial Day weekend (they're forecasting a cloudy one, though); in the meantime, just resting and recovering. Hugs back to you!

Continued prayers for you Merry! I hope you enjoy a nice Memorial weekend!!
Continued prayers for you too Festive! Such a scary world...

I hope you manage to enjoy your memorial day weekend as best you can. Rest and take it easy. Praying for you.

Things are bad.
We woke to the news this morning that the threat level has been increased from severe to critical which means another attack is imminent. There are troops deployed at key locations and armed police on the streets. Raids are being carried out at various places including the centre of the city and there have been more evacuations . The atmosphere is thick with fear and of course sadness. My husband and I both work in the heart of Manchester so it will be hard to go about day to day life without it being at the very front of our minds. The stories of what people went through is tough to handle and our hearts are breaking for the children and people who died and others fighting for their lives. Just heard that my husband's previous boss's best friend has died. She was picking up her 3 daughters from the concert.

It's so terrible, what has already happened, and what you have to live with. I'm so sorry for you and all other affected by this.

Good Pinesday afternoon, Christmas friends!

It's been pretty hectic around here, and it doesn't look like it's going to let up anytime soon. On top of that, we're under another tornado watch. There was a watch all afternoon yesterday, but (thankfully) nothing happened. It flooded rain all day, and we're supposed to get more of it today.

Last night was Honors Night at Elizabeth's school. She received her Honor Roll trophy, as well as two Citizenship medals, and several other certificates. What a smart girl! After the awards, we were approached by several other parents says "Wow, Elizabeth has worn a path to the stage to get all those awards!"

And Jacob made the Dean's List again at University!

How proud I am!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Prayers for everyone effected....so tragic.

Festive, I saw the threat level increase. I am sorry that you and the kind people around you have to deal with all of this, this is just terrible. Hoping for everyone to be safe.
