Good Morning, Citizens of Christmas Corner (aka MMC)!
It's mid-week. (And we all know what that means!)
Straight ahead to the numbers:
Days to the Season: 111
Days to Christmas Day: 153
And that first figure informs us that we are now only ELEVEN days away from the 100-day Season Window.
So tantalizingly close to SINGLE DIGITS!
(Can we really be this far along, Folks?)
Rain continues off and on as predicted. Fortunately more off than on, allowing some outdoor work between raindrops.
Today will see more of the same, with highs in the mid-80's.
This center day of the week has commenced here at a drippy 75 degrees.
Carl is acutely aware of how rapidly the summer seems to be passing and wants this evening's open house activities to reflect a continued commitment to our current season and to encourage enjoying it to the fullest.
Don't miss the fun tonight, and bring your appetites. (Rumor has it that a brand new beverage blend will be tried out on willing guinea pigs.)
Until that time, you have a Wonderful Wednesday, Everyone!

Every time i see the inflatable of Santa's beard blinking. I have to take a double take
Since they keep pushing his as the 31st year of CIJ on QVC. Wish they would show some old footage over the years
Good morning MMC ~
It’s going to be another warm and humid day with showers & thunderstorms. Not too much going on here. The girls and I have an appointment at a bridal boutique later tonight to look at bridesmaid dresses. We’re going to have dinner together before our appointment, I’m going to make lasagna. Other than that I’ll be working on the laundry. I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!

Good Morning, friends!!
So many fun things about today!!
Merry CIJ, Rudolph Day, and Pines Day!!
It’s a must to have Christmas music on all day!!
I plan to watch a Christmas movie tonight, still picking one out that I haven’t seen for some time. And Hallmark will be kept on all day as usual, need to take advantage of the last few days of Christmas movies. QVC live will be on my laptop, as well
Some work today, making taco dip for the party tonight, and hopefully will be able to get a walk in with Adi and the girls-if weather allows. Looking forward to another cool down after these storms.
Harlowe & Jazzie are hanging in, seem to be improving a little. But still not feeling that great~ hopefully they both rest up today and are feeling much better by tonight. Jazzie actually only ate a little of her chicken & rice-proof she’s having a rough go at things. Normally, that would’ve been inhaled
Wishing you all a blessed & Christmassy day ahead!!

Sending up prayers for Harlowe and Jazzie, hope they’re back to feeling 100% very soon!
Have a nice day Snowflake!

So nice to see you mgramsey, congratulations to your son and on your retirement as well!!!
Good Luck at the bridal shop...hope you find dresses!
Thanks Crown!! Have a great hump day!
WOW!, A pull my finger joke on QVC. LOL
Good morning MMC! Merry Christmas In July!! Merry Pines Day!!! It's a day to celebrate!!! 
Just work for me today! Watching Hallmark Christmas - hopefully all day (as long as the bosses don't change my channel!)
Currently watching Christmas Connection. I like this one!
As I'm typing this, I'm remembering I have got to get the turkey out of the freezer for Saturday. I wanted to do that last night & I forgot! OOPS! At lunch today, I'll stick it in the fridge!!
Lucy goes to the groomer at lunch. I don't think she really needs to go b/c her hair is so short right now, but I'll take here anyway - then I get to see the other 2 Wheaties!
Everyone, have a great day!!

Exciting!!!You know it!! Already started a bit
Good morning, Christmas fantatics. For a change, I have an update of my own today. Last evening was too fantastic not to share.
My dear son and daughter-in-law got the whole family together to announce the gender of the child they are expecting this December on my birthday. (It will be great having another Christmas baby in the family!) They are having a boy. This will be our first (of many, I hope) grandchildren. All are very excited to welcome this precious little one into the family!!!
Also, the kids had a conference behind closed doors after the big baby announcement. After they let me and my wife into the room, they told us that they are taking us to Frankenmuth for a day next month to celebrate our 30th anniversary. A day of all of us hanging around and enjoying the city (BRONNER’S!!!!) and ending with a room all to ourselves at Zehnder’s for a chicken dinner, conversation, and games.
Life is good!!!
