Is it too early to worry about hurricane Gustav hitting the gulf coast? It was almost three years ago exactly that hurricane Katrina hit -- and they still haven't finished recovering! I just read that the population of New Orleans is still only 2/3 of what it was before Katrina.

Anyway -- it's almost Labor Day Weekend! Yay!
 
Has anyone seen a Christmas commercial? I have, but I just can't remember from who....actually I believe I have seen two now that I think about it.:?

Nope no Christmas commercials YET. But Im sure there will be some coming into September :P and then I will go nuts ;) hehe (in a good WAY!) But wow Its coming closer!
 
Thank you, dvdguy! I am putting that at the top of my grocery list!!! Why the outside temperature is down to 80 degrees today -- practically freezing! That "Sweet Italian Cream" flavor will be so comforting in hot (decaf) coffee in the late afternoon. Although, I bet it would be sensational in strong iced coffee too!


I love hot drinks on cold days. But hot chocolate seems to disappear - I take the first sip - and then the whole mug is gone! And how many cups a day until I look just like Santa Claus?

I wish I liked hot tea. Tea is so classy. So refined. People seem so thoughtful and wise sipping tea. I just don't really like it. Well, I did like "Constant Comment" (which is tea jazzed up with orange peel and spices.) Oh well.
 
Good afternoon!! :hi: It's ALMOST FRIDAY!!! Just check out that view!!! :-D

I havent seen any Christmas commercials yet, other than that back to school commercial w/ Santa & the Elves in the work shop...that was around Christmas In July. Now there is another commercial that has a Christmas theme song, but it's not actually a Christmas commercial...I can't remember what that is a commercial for!! I will have to pay attention & maybe they'll show it this afternoon!!

You all have a great day!!!

Still no Cedar????? : (
 
Good evening! Been a busy day here today. We finally poured cement for the footings for our basement. Next week it will be the walls. I will be more than thrilled once the basement is done we can finally start with the rest of our home renovations. We got a late start unfortunately so we will do what we can do until the snow flies. I hope you all had a nice week. Only one more day to go and the 3 day weekend will be here for those of us who don't have to work that is.
 
Isn't it treat when you discover some Christmas stuff put out early in the stores? Then, you can take your time and look at everything! And most people take one look - and veer away from the Christmas aisles this early. So you don't get crowded or rushed! I really have zero room to store and/or display any more decorations. (Unless there is something iresistable!( But that doesn't stop the joy of looking and picking up and admiring! Free fun!
 
Good morning!!!! :hello: HAPPY LONG WEEKEND FRIDAY!!! :D
 
Good Morning Fellow Friends of Friday!

Again overcast here in Raleigh with our temp standing at 75.
The possibility of more rain is present but not to the extent of yesterday.

Days to the Season: 76
Days to Christmas Day: 118
We just keep moving on toward double, double-digits!

Have not seen any Christmas merchandise in this area yet but our Crabtree Valley Mall always decorates by the 2nd half of October, which is less than 2 months away. That ALWAYS starts me getting into the Christmas spirit.

Have a Fabulous Friday, comrades!
 
Go to Garden Ridge.. it is full of Christmas.. and people are buying!
 
Think I will head out there now...... there's a Starbucks near there....

yabba
 
Good evening, Christmas friends! The leaves are changing and falling here already, and autumn is on its way! I'm sitting here listening to some Christmas music :)
 
117 days to go....It´s Saturday morning 12,20am over here in Germany....Friday has been cloudy but warm.....will be getting hot today....around 86to 90....still cool....because my City´s Volksfest "Backfischfest" starts today.....and usually I started to think bout Christmas a lot when that was over.....well...:D I started a lill earlier this year :D
 
Auntie-Mae, I finally made a run for it when those D@#!!*XM Elves went out for another coffee break!! YES!! I'm free! I can't possibly explain the trauma I've been through with those naughty midgets. They chained me to a Hegner Scroll Saw for days on end and forced me to make wooden jigsaw puzzles for Christmas!!! No food, no fun, no forum, only work. :-?

My dear friends, I want to wish you a WONDERFUL 3-day glorious week-end !!!!!! I've missed you and hope to be back as soon as these elves find someone else to torment! I did sorta like wearing green tights every day, it makes the clothing decision alot easier!

Where did our summer go? WHERE??? How are all of you? Bing!

YABBA BABY, YABBA!!!!!!!
 
OMG!!!!

They picked Tina Fey for Vice President! Now that's someone I might be interested in!! LOL!



YABBA!!!! OH Yeah....YABBA Babe!

Ok, Ok, these elves are pulling my pant leg...time to go...see you later!!!

:snowball:
 
^ ^ ^ ^
We were there to see it in person!

Cracker Barrel has had Christmas stuff out in the store since at least last week. And the Flower Factory and Hobby Lobby are getting their stock out now.
 
Well, Cedar! Glad to see you are still among the living!
Watch out for those elves and thanks for checking in to put our minds at ease.

Good Morning, all!

Days to the Season: 75
Days to Christmas Day: 117
Less than 2 weeks until we pass through the 100-Day Christmas Day window and move into double-double digit territory. Then things will REALLY start to move fast!

Overcast with a chance of rain here in Raleigh this morning.
We currently stand at 75 degrees.
Slightly cooler weather with much lower humidity is promised for next week.
I can't wait.

Well, have a Stupendous Saturday, everybody - and I hope your Weekend is off to a Wonderous start!
