Christmas Countdown - 2018

[MerryCarey]

Which is more exciting, Guys? The fact that tomorrow is day 300 before Christmas or that the following day will start a double-200's count?
(Tough choice!)

With the big 300 coming on a 'Pines Day, there will probably be excitement at the 'Pines ...

Good Tuesday morning! My first day back at work yesterday wasn't too bad, I survived. Today will be all sunshine and high temperatures, as if it was already Spring. I'm tempted to ditch my boots but there are still icy patches on the sidewalks, so not yet. I may have sprained my right hand/wrist while sleeping in a wrong position on Sunday night. It hurts from the inside of my wrist up my hand when in certain positions. I have to modify how I hit some of the keys on the keyboard. Hopefully it will be fine in a couple of days but it's annoying. I just made a batch of chili for tonight, since I'm working the afternoon/evening shift. Now to take Loki out for a walk and take in some of this beautiful sunshine. Have a great day everyone!

Merry Tuesday!

Going to be a gorgeous day today with a high nearing 60. A good day to organize stuff for the store and since trash day is tomorrow, a good day to get rid of stuff, too.

Be merry!

Good Morning, MMC!!! Well it’s a beautiful day here in central Indy with a high of 60 projected!! I’m kid free too!!! Woohoo!! I was going to run to costco but I’m not sure if I want to brave the roads around Indy. The pot holes are literally so bad that they’ve started to throw sand bags in them because they ran out of asphalt to fill them. They were supposed to have a plant open today but it broke down this morning. Ugh!! So I’m thinking I’ll wait until next week to go down. I hope everyone has a great day!!!

Merry Monday!

Had quite the wind storm late Saturday into Sunday and of course lost power. This time around it was out over 24 hours and today it was actually warmer outside than it was inside. I even got a bit of a sunburn on my face as I was sitting outside, enjoying the warmth. It is February, right? Sure doesn't seem like it, but later this week the cooler temperatures will be back and possibly even a snow shower.

Be merry!

Sunburn? How awesome! Have a good day M!

Morning MMC. February is flying isn't it? Well Monday was a normal busy day at work and then taking Rollins to the park after was fun. Back into that routine hopefully till at least Thanksgiving now every day. We saw sun and today we should see some too. Been tough to see much of that lately. Hope you enjoy your next to last day of February!

So hard to believe tomorrow is the last day of Feb! Have a good day Edge!

Happy Tuesday MMC ~
It’s going to be a nice day, sunny with a high of 52 degrees. I’m just having my coffee and playing with Rocky. Trying to wear him out so he’ll take a nap. I need to do some food shopping while he’s sleeping. Back home afterward to work on my daily chores. I’m probably going to start my Spring cleaning as well. I want to have all of my deep cleaning done by the time Easter arrives, might as well pace myself. Speaking of Easter I better start working on the menu plan, I’m definitely hosting this year. That’s about it for me. Hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!
xx

We haven't discussed Easter yet! It will be here b/f we know it! Have a great day HMG!!!

Happy Tuesday! It is going to be nice and sunny today...it is good to see the sun and warmer temps. Hard to believe tomorrow is the last day of February. No real plans for tonight catching up on laundry and we are having tacos for dinner.
Hope you all have a great day!

Taco's - yum!! Have a great day SFM!

Good afternoon ... Today is the 1st day in nearly week where the sun is shinning. Such a lovely site after all the rain we have been getting with even more due in later this week. Wish some of it ... ok all of it was snow though

Hope everyone is having a great day!

Goodness ... you must have been home sick when the teacher discussed metaphors ...

Really, though, a projector in top shape is such a joy---the motor and shutter quietly purring away as the film passes through, the audio strong and steady, the image staying in sharp focus without drifting ... I guess it's hard to describe to anyone who doesn't know a film collector. Film evenings are a special treat.

I completely appreciate what you're referring to. There are few things so frustrating, as having a good print, but an ailing projector to watch it through.

Very true. That's why it will be such a joy to see our prints at their very best again. I love DVDs and Blu-ray, but sometimes watching a genuine I.B. Tech 16mm print, or a vintage black-and-white printdown, takes the prize. Mr. is a wizard at repairing and maintaining his 16mm prints, so it's a joy to screen any of them.

I have a load of laundry hanging on the line for the 1st time this year!!

Well, what to say, it has been a crazy morning here, the wife had me up most of the am hours, she was not feeling well again, tossing and turning in bed, up and down and then all of a sudden around 6am she's throwing up in the bathroom. I know she felt awful, poor thing, she called out of work again. I myself was so tired, I called out of work also, so I could rest (I would of have been useless sitting in front of a computer screen all day; give it an hour or two, and I would of been asleep at my desk) and to also be here with her in case she needed me.

I don't know what it is this year, she's a middle school teacher, and of course, she is subject to every germ, in that icky breeding ground within the school. And she catches it no matter how much sanitizer she uses and how many times she washes her hands. She was doing so much of that, that her hands were starting to get red, crack and irritated. She missed 3 days last week being sick.

I'm not feeling myself now, my throat is getting sore, have pains in my belly and I do not feel like myself overall. This, more than anything else in the winter is what I do not like, sicknesses! They always seem to be more prominent in the winter months than in the summer months.

Well, what to do, other than just try to rest.
