Christmas Countdown - 2018

[made582]

Well another QVC big CIJ weekend event has come and gone. Fun was had by all and glitter manufacturers around the world rejoiced.

Let me also mark the 5 year anniversary of our biggest CIJ party here on the forums by giving a shout out to the class of 2013. While so many have faded away, it’s good to see some of us still here continuing the tradition.

3430 posts over one weekend about an event that brought us such classics as the cheerleader and Poo-pourri.

To put that in perspective, it took until March 19th this year for the countdown to reach 3430 posts.

Truly a weekend that’ll never be topped.

Good Monday morning, Christmas friends!

I had a great birthday Saturday! I sat around the house all day, watching scifi movies and eating popcorn. Then the family took me out to dinner at my favorite Italian restaurant.

Most of last weekend and all of this week will be devoted to Elizabeth's The Little Mermaid production. The show is Thursday through Sunday, and from the scenes I've already seen, she'll be great!

I hope y'all have a great day!

I’ve heard of Holiday Inn! Great movie!!!

Wish I could say it was related to Holiday Inn, but it's not! Just a posh, old-fashioned New England inn in Woodstock, Vermont. Big fireplaces in the common areas.

Happy Monday!

Good morning ... I was sad to miss most of QVC's CIJ this past weekend however we were at the shore with the kids and had a blast and didn't get back until yesterday so I got see some of it yesterday afternoon and evening.Great weather, Beach, water park, boardwalk, rides, games and fudge ... couldn't have asked for a better weekend. Still on vacation this week but hoping to use this time get a lot of these small projects done. Well I need to get caught up on the posts. Have a great morning.

Hi All, Happy Monday.
Its nearly summer break in the UK, my kids all finish on Thursday and I've booked a nice little beach hut trip for Friday, hope the weather is kind to us. Then it's count down to our Summer Holiday in August, then our Xmas trip to NYC!
Lots to look forwards to - just got to get through the next few days of a heavy workload.
Keep smiling

It’s crazy to think that kids are just getting out there. My nieces will be going back on the 30th.

Hope your kids have a good last week and enjoy the beach!!

Enjoy your vacation!!

Good morning. I decided to take off today and get some extra things done especially getting rid of the pile of garbage in our garage. I was so busy working around the house Saturday, I completely forgot all about it. The transfer station is open on Saturday but not Sunday. I’ve got a ton of cardboard boxes to recycle and bags and bags of trash.

I have to call a couple utility companies, go to the bank to officially change our address (we have to show them our tax bill), order checks and such. Take a bunch of stuff and donate it, and a lot more.

So, even though I’m not going to work today, I still yet have a lot of work to do.

Have a nice day everyone.

Hope that you can get everything accomplished today that you want to!!
Have a great day, xmastidings!

Good morning MMC ~
Merry Monday!
It’s going to be partly sunny today with a high of 85 degrees. Typical day of errands and chores for me. I also have to go for a vision screening test to renew my drivers license. That’s about it. I hope everyone has a nice day and a great week ahead!!!

Have a great day, HMG!! Hopefully the vision test goes well!! I forgot my glasses when I did mine back in May and just barely passed. Whoops.

Good Morning MMC !

working at the store today.
Still have not picked up my daughters car as there was a problem with a leak in the manifold that needs fixing first. Hopefully it will be done tomorrow.
Going to be hot again today with storms coming this afternoon that will break this 16 day streak of 30c ++ temperatures. (90f ++)

Good Morning, CS~
Hope that work goes well today.
Stay cool, and have a nice start to your week!

Bless her heart, I miss her, too.

I do too, she was such a caring person, and a good friend to all!

Merry Monday!
Typical day of work for me, my oldest daughter has a soccer game tonight and then she is having 4 of her friends sleepover. I need to run to the grocery store later and hoping to get a workout in too. Hope you all have a great day!

Happy Monday, SFM~
Hope that your oldest has fun at her soccer game, and at her sleepover!
Stay cool, and have a wonderful day!

Morning all.

Going out for lunch today to my nephew's restaurant: vegan spanish. Looking forward to it. Low key day today as it's going to be a scorcher. Close to 90 degrees. Will try to stay in the A/C but who knows. The dog is already feeling the heat. He'll be indoors most of the day.

Maybe go for a walk in the forest to cool down.

Good Morning, GWarren~
Enjoy lunch at your nephew's restaurant!
Hope that you and your dog stay cool, and have a nice Monday!
