Holiday, thanks for the invite on the 25th!

Is it really only 33 days until the season starts?! I have to get to work. So many things to plan. So many things to do. So many places to shop!

Have a great rest of the weekend everyone!

hey sila,

i have the same problem. not really sure why?

hope everybody has a lovely, relaxing sunday. i could really do with a peppermint coffee from starbucks, that would make me feel incredibly festive! :treeguy:

SparkleNana · Oct 12, 2008

Good Morning, Friends.

Sila and Johnor - I have the same problem. I have to hop my way up through the posts. It is a small price to pay to get our morning greetings!

Wishing everyone a beautiful Sunday.

Well, Dom, in less than 2 weeks, our Crabtree Valley Mall shopping center will start putting up their Christmas decorations. Always a nice kick-off to the holiday season around here. I will be sure to post a photo or two in the Christmas Blossoms thread.

OK, our count for the day:
Days to the Season: 32
Days to Christmas Day: 74
(Wow. Look at that. The season arrives one month from tomorrow.
Hard to believe, isn't it?)

A sunny and calm 60 degrees outside here in Raleigh at this hour.
Rain threatened all day yesterday but I did not see a drop fall.
Should be nicer today.

Have a Super Sunday, Super Friends!

Good Morning Friends...
It's been snowing here off and on for a few days now. We have about 10 inches or so total. Talked to my sister this morning (she lives about 1hr. from me) and she has 2 ft. of the white stuff. Took this lovely pic. the other day. I hope everyone has a nice Sunday!

Lorn--xx · Oct 12, 2008

:rudolph:

JOHNOR · Oct 12, 2008

annette, that is stunning!

i take it you have been wrapping up warm in that weather?

Wenceslaus · Oct 12, 2008

Annette, now the Mickey Mouse animation in your signature area looks like it's sledding right out from the photo. Perfect!

Boogedy · Oct 12, 2008

Lovely shot Annette! Can you imagine if that tree had lights on it? Now that would REALLY be something!

Today I am going to try to finish the stocking I am sewing for my dad. Anyone else have Christmas-y things to do today?

caseydbell · Oct 12, 2008

Afternoon Everyone, hope you all have a relaxing Sunday.

RadioJonD · Oct 12, 2008

Great photo Annette!

Binger, may your next one thousand posts drip through the grounds as fluently as the first 1k!

The reason so many members are having difficulty reaching the last post is due to the number of posts that have accumulated while we've been waiting to greet "the season".

I get it around it in two ways. 1. is simply click on the first page and then click on the last page from there and it works. If I missed a few pages I can double back from there.
2. Is to use my history and click on the last page I visited in the Countdown thread and it directs me there.

:cry: Nice shot, Annette - I'm hoping I don't see any white stuff for at least another month. I guess if it's going to be freezing cold, I'd rather have some snow.
