Christmas Countdown - 2018

Is there any medicine you can take to help with the symptoms? I sometimes have random allergic reactions (no clue why) and for years I fought taking medicine but now I reach for the Reactine right away, I have no patience anymore. Hope you can get it under control and get to sleep.

I tried Allegra last night, and it was not quite as bad. Thanks!

Everything is proceeding smoothly and the workers seem very competent. The blowers are humming along for the second day.
(Actually, the white noise is rather soothing!)

I sleep with a box fan running every night. It puts me right out!

Happy Thursday ~
It’s going to be another cloudy & rainy day with highs near 68 degrees. Not too much going on here today, just a typical day of errands and chores. I also need to practice some “homework” with Rocky. His last obedience class is on Saturday. On top of knowing all of the basic commands he’s supposed to do a trick as well lol. Wish us luck. I hope everyone is well and has a great day!

Good morning MMC!! It's a beautiful morning!! Too nice to be inside at work! I hung a load of laundry on the line this morning & I just wanted to hang out on the patio. But here I am. LOL! At least it's Friday Eve!!!! Rain is predicted for our Friday & Saturday! Go figure!!!

I planted flowers last night. I got 9 pots planted & I had to quit to make supper. I also need to get some more flowers! Some wascally wabbit got ahold of my flowers. He/she just munched on several of my flowers, but snapped off 2 of my bell pepper plants. Grrrr! Hopefully flowers will come back even stronger - not sure about them pepper plants! Needless to say the flowers I didn't get planted were moved into the garage last night. Little boogers!!!

Have a Fabulous Friday Eve MMC!

Morning, and a happy Friday eve to one and all.

Happy Friday Eve Tis!!!

Morning MMC. Into the 2nd half of May and another rainy morning here. We have probably had one of the cloudiest 1st half of the years that I can remember. Just seems like we haven't seen much sun since the 1st half of winter. Just planning stuff for the weekend now. Hope you're having a better day today Crown. Hope you all have a good one as well.

Hope you get to see some sun soon & you are planning some good stuff for the weekend! Have a Merry Friday Eve!

Good Morning, Everyone.
Rise, shine and read the count numbers while sipping some tea and enjoying that extra fired twinkie you brought home from the 'Pines yesterday evening.

Days to the Season: 180
Days to Christmas Day: 222

Now that you are well fortified with tea and twinkie, perhaps you can handle this:
The 200-Day Christmas Day window will be here three weeks from tomorrow.
That's right.
In 3 WEEKS, both of our counts will start with the number "1".
(And you know how fast things start to move after that.)

Well, yesterday was dominated by the sound of air blowers trying to dry out wet wood from our upstairs bathroom drain line leak. They will continue to blow all day today and most of tomorrow before the anti-mold chemicals can be used.
Then the bathroom floor and kitchen ceiling below can be rebuilt.
And the weather is not cooperating by bringing lots of rain which hopefully won't hinder the drying process.
It is overcast as I type this and our opening temperature is 69 degrees.

Have a Thrilling Thursday, Folks.
(And a word of advise. If you notice a water leak inside, don't delay in having repairs done!)

Good advice! And good luck with the dry out & the repairs. I remember having them blowers going at my parents house when construction workers were ripping off their roof & a huge storm was coming. Sky was black as black could be - what were they thinking??? Needless to say - that did not end well. But the repair process was interesting!! All turned out well & I hope yours does too!
Have a good day!

Happy Friday Eve!! Just a rainy day today and looks like clouds and rain throughout the weekend. Not too much going on today my typical work and I need to catch up on laundry tonight. Hope you all have a great day!

My last load of clothes laundry is hanging on the line as I type. Good feeling to get it done. Of course I could always do sheets &/or towels. Always something. LOL

Oh my gosh. So what kind of trick is Rocky going to do?? I would be at a loss. Lucy does the basics - sit, paw, other paw - she's USUALLY pretty good with the "come" command. Sometimes she'll lay when we tell her too. That's about it! LOL! Good luck! Enjoy your day!

My youngest daughter has to sleep with a fan every night too. Makes her fall asleep quicker.

I have to say I am jealous of your nice weather, we have rain and clouds predicted for the next few days.

Good Thursday morning, Christmas friends!

We just finished our daily staff meeting, and now I'm settling in with a job that will take the rest of my day. The coffee maker will be working double-time today!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Next up on Rachael Ray - they have a guy named Chris who has a year round Christmas room they are going to try to change into a living room. How sad!!

I tried Allegra last night, and it was not quite as bad. Thanks!

Taking one of those a day is a daily regiment along with Flonase for me. Between the two, it's knocking my allergies down substantially so far. The pollen is very, very bad right now!

Ditto!!

The wife and I bought one of those white noise makers at Bed Bath and Beyond, let me tell you, they work great. Now we cannot sleep unless we have one on at home or take one with us when we travel.
