Christmas Countdown - 2008

[JOHNOR]

I see Step Brothers in the cinema last week

Very funny if you like Will Ferell

i love will ferrell, really wanna see this film.

We went to see "Going to See Rachel's Wedding" with Anne Hathaway on Friday.

The blurb said "......sometimes hilarious."

Let me tell you, this was the most depressing, heavy movie I have seen in decades! Yes, it was excellent. But you really really really have to be prepared and strong to see this movie. There was not a nanosecond of "hilarious".

Goodnight everyone

It's 1:15 am so its time for me to get some sleep

See you all tomorrow xx

SparkleNana - I found it at Walmart. I looked at 1 or 2 other grocery stores...not knowing if I WANTED to find it or not (LOL) & they didn't have it, but when I saw it wat Walmart, I thought I better give it a try. It's mighty tasty!

I too love Dirty Dancing...Oooh, la la! :grin: I can watch it over & over. I can watch Grease over & over too! Love that movie! My Mom, sisters, nieces & I watched "Two For The Dough" last week & that was really good. Right now I have The Departed & The Notebook from Netflix.

Good chilly Monday morning!! My thermometer says 36º this morning! :cold: What a way to kick off the week! They are calling for a freeze tomorrow morning!! EEK!!! That means no more tomatoes from the garden! Bummer!!

I did see Mamma Mia...I LOVED it! All the girls in my family went to the theater to see it...Great, great movie! I would definately buy it on dvd when it comes out! :grin:

Have a great day!!!

Rome boy reporting for duty! All is right with the world...Had a few neighborhood folks over last night and we all discussed Christmas lights and such...It was really cool!!! Not sure who knows of my Christmas music proclivities within the neighborhood but little Heather from across the street always asks me to play "Silent Night" on the piano...Gotta love that kid!!!

We're so close that it's startling!!!I'm looking forward to the big night when the season arrives when we meet in real time for the countdown minute by minute!!!

And on that note, let's check on our count for the morning:
Days to the Season: 24
Days to Christmas Day: 66
Days to Halloween: 11
Hey! Almost down to single digits to Halloween!
Are you fully stocked on candy yet?
We like to go to the mall and watch the children walk around from store to stor in their costumes (although it does seem a little strange to see trick-or-treaters among Christmas decorations!)

Cold here this morning! We stand at 40, currently.
It's sunny, though, and no precip is predicted.

Had a nice visit to the State Fair yesterday.
I did see one small Christmas display and took a photo. Will post it to the Christmas Blossoms thread when I get the chance.

Have a Marvelous Monday, folks!

Good Morning! "Give us the sounds of Christmas, Glory, Glory, Glory, Glory, to the Lamb of God" Sorry, listening to music. Have a marvelous Monday everyone!
