Christmas Countdown - 2008

[Holiday]

I was out in my yard last night, and guess what I saw? Four houses down the street were Christmas lights!!! A bit early for me, however it looked beautiful!!!

I don't want that at my house, but I would love to see somebody else all decked out!!! That's cool!! :sparkle::grin:

Oh my Christmas lights already huh? I have to get through Halloween first

Good Morning friends!

I found some great things in the dollar section at Michael's yesterday. (Lots of Mary Engelbrecht things for those who love her work.) Plus the Halloween animated things were 40% off. (I bought some orange lights to string in the bushes outside.)

Yes it is too early, but to each their own!!

I can't wait to start on my things, and I can not wait to put the tree up! The day after Thanksgiving will be when we start, if we can still move after overeating on Thanksgiving!!

Over 14 hours with no posts. And yet here we are barely a week away from the start of the Season Home Stretch? What's wrong with this picture??

Well, anyway, Good Morning!

Days to the Season: 44
Days to Christmas Day: 86.
Days to the 90% Season Milestone: 7. (One week!)

Very overcast here in Raleigh at this hour.
We stand at 64 degrees. Chance of showers.

Hey! I got another couple of "Christmas Blossoms" shots yesterday.
Check them out in my thread of the same name.

Have a Terrific Tuesday, guys!
(Meet me at the week's peak tomorrow, Holiday, and we will take in that beautiful view together!)

Morning All!

Wow we are getting so close. I read crowns first post again, and it really put me in the holiday spirit.

High in the 80's and low in the 60's this week. Around Oct. 18 we should finally get our high down to the upper 70's, I'm ready for cool weather. I was at a retreat this weekend and it got down to 50's in Hunt Texas!

Have a merry day & listen to a little MMC radio.

[Holiday]

Good afternoon! I hope you are all having a good day!!!

It might have been slow at this thread yesterday, but I was at the lake this weekend, so I didn't check this website all weekend. When I looked on Monday morning, there were 1,145 new posts!! It must be getting closer!!! Another note...tomorrow is not only hump day, but it starts our 4th quarter of the year, which includes.....DECEMBER!!!! :merry:

 

[SparkleNana]

Tomorrow will be a GREAT day!

[SparkleNana]

I agree, Dom! Halloween buildup (beginning October 1st) is the start of the Christmas holiday season for me!

 

[trackrebel]

it´s 54 degrees and a bit rainy......and it´s only 85 days to the biiiid day

.....We roll on towards the home stretch. I remember reading that milestone in early Jan on the front page and thinking that's a pretty awesome sounding milestone....

Indeed it is, my friend, indeed it is!

Days to the Season: 43
Days to Christmas Day: 85.
Days to the 90% Season Milestone: 6. (And that's the same as less than a week, Yogi!)

Yes, friends, we have moved into another month - possibly the single biggest step in our march to the Season. It always seems to me that once October first has been reached, we have taken a really big leap forward.

Cloudy/somber here this morning. Had lightning, thunder and rain in the early morning hours today, which woke me up (not so easy to do!). I could swear I heard the sound of a certain someone slurping coffee but I guess it was just the sound of rainwater running into my downspout.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday, friends.
And Holiday, my oh my, doesn't that view from the week's peak to the weekend look nice!
