......but he doesn't like coffee! Lol! (can you believe that Bing...he doesn't like coffee!.....

Bing can't, but I can.
Give me tea anyday!

Good Morning!
What a fine Friday Eve it is, albeit a cloudy one.
We stand at a nice walkable 70 degrees at this hour.
Had a light rain yesteday with possibly more today.

Days to the Season: 63
Days to Christmas Day: 105.
My! My! My! Barely 5 days to go to the 100-Day Christmas Day marker.
We draw nearer - ever nearer by the day.

Well, have a Thrilling Thursday - and keep the faith - for tomorrow is.......
FRIDAY!

 

[Holiday]

Friday Eve....never thought about Thursday being "Friday Eve" Lol! I like it! :smile:

My hubby won't touch tea either! Give him a Mt. Dew anyday & he's happy! Lol!

I'm thinking it's about time for "movie night" again...he makes a mean batch of sugar popcorn! Problem is, he's working such long & odd hours right now, if he sits infront of a tv, he's sleeping!

 

[Crown 84]

Sleeping's good too, Holiday.
Sleeping, tea, big-band music. Anything but coffee!

 

[pinkini]

Friday Eve! 105 days! So much to be excited for!

 

[MsChristmas]

Friday Eve..I like that too! I dont like coffee either. But I LOVE tea and also hot chocolate. Speaking of dates, my wedding anniversary is Sunday! Hubby and I are going to a nice dinner, Im looking forward to it!

 

[Binger]

Good morning & HAPPY CHRISTMAS!! :-D

I LOVE coffee!! Especially this time of year!!!! Crisp cool mornings & a cup of hot java! Mmmmm! I would like to take my hubby on a "coffee date" but he doesn't like coffee! Lol! (can you believe that Bing...he doesn't like coffee! )

You all have a great day!!!

Divorce him...ASAP...

YABBA......

 

[Binger]

SparkleNana, I think we're kindred spirits!!! Different words used but same pleasant voice and blank expression!!!!

Yep, I thought a cappucino was expresso and frothy milk too but (and I'm relying on Binger to keep me right here) isn't expresso REALLY strong coffee???

you are correct ohhhh plaided one....

YABBA.. cofffee lovers unite... and smite the hand that holds a North Carolinian tea bag....... or better yet.. smite the hand that stays at ye old Carolinian Inn at Nags Head...
( I just bet you did...)

YABBA YABBA YABBA YABBA...

 

[trackrebel]

66,2 degrees...cloudy and we will have heavy rain...Icould go without the rain...but the temps are cool to me

 

[SparkleNana]

...... cofffee lovers unite... and smite the hand that holds a North Carolinian tea bag....... or better yet.. smite the hand that stays at ye old Carolinian Inn at Nags Head...
( I just bet you did...)...

Been to Nags Head alright, but have not stayed at the Carolinian.
Do they have soft mattresses? Serve sweet tea?

Good Morning.
No. Good FRIDAY morning!
<< That's better, Crown >>

Rise, shine, and smell the tea, folks!

Days to the Season: 62
Days to Christmas Day: 104.
Getting close. Getting real close to that 100-day marker!

Overcast but a nice 72 here in Raleigh at this hour.
More rain is in the forecast.

Hey! (Or should that be "Hay!") Carl informs me there's going to be a big blow-out of a party this weekend at the Shispering Pines.
All the fired twinkies you can eat and all the tea you can drink.
(Um, Binger, there WILL be coffee but Carl says it's another of his experimental blends. Something involving blueberries. << Shudder >>)

Have a FABULOUS FRIDAY my Fantastic Friends!

 

[clarebear]

Hello all :dance: Hope you are all well

 

[SparkleNana]

Good Morning!

It is really hard to say anything appropriate about the massive hurricane Ike. It has caused such terrible damage to other countries, and now to our own. I will be thinking and praying today.

Off to the family birthday party for a grandchild this afternoon. There was a sleep-over last night -- and apparently the party kids did not go to sleep all night. The parents are zombies now. Maybe the grandparents can let the parents escape for a nap this afternoon.

 

[trackrebel]

it´s raining and cold outside....57 Fahrenheit....when I went outside to smoke a cigarette (yeah I know...terrible habit...but I´m trying....just doesn´t work as of yet)...I could see my own breath....and no...it wasn´t the cigarette smoke...I thought so, too in the beginning...but it wasn´t....I found that to be very cool

 

[Crown 84]

.....That next milestone will be coming up any day now. Just realized today is the 13th, 2 months from today is the season! I remember in Jan when we were happy to get to 10 months to the season. Amazing how we've gone through this year right towards the holiday season.....

Indeed, indeed! Time sure flies.
(I used to suscribe to the old adage that "time files when you're having fun" but now that I'm older, I've shortened it to just "time flies"!)

Good Morning!
I hope everyone's weekend is off to a wonderous start!
Let's check on the count:
Days to the Season: 61
Days to Christmas Day: 103.
And a bare 3 days to the 100-day mark! Fantastic!

A beautiful, sunny day outside here in Raleigh. We currently stand at 78.
It should be warm and humid still, but no rain is forecast for the next few days. A good time to get some outside work done (as long as it is not too vigorous, that is!)

Have a Stupendous Saturday, friends.
I hope your day is the greatest!
(And you folks in SE Texas take care!)

YABBA.. miss ya Cedar and Jay....

 

[Binger]

I was at Harris Teeter this AM and told to leave.. seems they don't like it when I stand for thirty minutes with my head in the mocha java blend and sit there sniffing it...

EVERYONE BOYCOTT HARRIS TEETER,, BOYCOTT....

YABBA.. I smite the handof tea folk in NC...

 

[SparkleNana]

Binger - I am absolutely boycotting Harris Teeter! They are so selfish!!!

I am going off to make a cup of decaf -- and drink it in your honor! Of course, now that I have "Sweet Italian Cream" coffee creamer-- even decaf tastes delicious!

For me - life is better with a cup of coffee!

Binger getting high on coffee beans - it figures!

 

[Binger]

Sparkle.. Thank God.. a kindred spirit here where some tea person down south continues to lead a revolt against we God fearing coffee drinkers.... welcome to the status quo...
