Morning all!
Not posted as much as I would have liked this year (started off well, then slowly fizzled out!) Been so busy with work, moving and redecorating house etc I've just not had time to post here!
However, I have kept up with reading all your posts throughout the year from the email updates I receive daily..
Anyway, since my other half and I had our Halloween party, I've been asking her if we can just put up the odd Christmas ornament etc, but the boss says no! Not until the 1st December
Anyway, I managed to get the lights up outside in our cherry tree for the 'Halloween party' so if I'm feeling like a burst of Christmas lights I just nip into the garage and switch them on 
Anyhoo, I cant believe the season is upon us already... this year really has flown by! I'm going to try and savour every day of this season and not just wish it away like I usually do!
Aaaanyway, thats enough waffle from me for today.... Merry Christmas all

That's okay, Jay, I laughed out loud too. I'm not at work, but dh laying in bed must think I'm nuts. (He has a dentist appt this morning so he doesn't need to get up for work.)
Good morning fellow lovers of Christmas!
I'm up posting in the dark so as not to disturb dh too much.
Yesterday I came home from work and he told me he was able to get half of my birthday present. I was quite confused. I'd asked for a spaghetti dinner that I didn't have to cook and a carrot cake birthday cake that I didn't have to buy and all of the kids that live in the area sitting at the the table enjoying it with me. (How does he have half of that?)
(Actually, I told him to give me cash, because he would never be able to pull it off.)
Well, folks, my husband does pay attention sometimes.
He got me a Wii. They were out of the Wii Fit at Target, should have some when the next truck comes.
We were watching tv and a commercial came on for the Wii Fit and I said that although I don't get into video games, I could get into a Wii and would enjoy a Wii Fit. (He then told me he'd get it for me but I had to use it naked. He's such a redneck.)
So, we went to our favorite hometown restaurant where I got my free chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting and came home and played with the Wii. (I was clothed. LOL)
At work, I have the job of announcing everyone's birthday over the intercom and radio. I can imagine what all those seekers of revenge have planned for me today since it's now my turn. (Should I call in?????)
Anyhow, this thread is for the Christmas Season, which I am so glad is here!
I tried to go to this website at work but "access denied". I can only go to websites for boring doors, and metal roofing, and silly stuff like that.....

Have a safe trip to the Mountains, Bing! (It gets slippery up there this time of year with all the frozen ice, snow and spilled coffee.)
We did have fun here Wednesday night, didn't we? And with the largest, merriest group we have ever had.
If you missed it, do not fear! We usually try to gather again late on Christmas Eve to ring in the Day.
And just how far away are we? Our count will tell:
Days to Christmas Day: 41 (Under 6 weeks, now. Start getting those lists ready! )
Days to Thanksgiving Day: 13 (Wow! Less than 2 weeks! Can you taste the cranberries, yet?)
Not cold today (57) but very wet. Lots of rain yesteday with more predicted for today. Then dry and cold for Sunday.
Have a Fabulous Friday, Friends!
I hope everyone is enjoying DAY 2 of our Christmas Season!

Merry Everything, Miller 4,
Where is the Christmas Village? What's the scoop on it? Thanks!!!
Thank you for addressing this!! It is why I sought out a Christmas website in the first place because the last 2 Christmases have come and gone without my feeling all the way into Christmas. Without snow or even fost in the air it is really difficult!!
This year I have the fun of MMC and already I can feel the difference (and smell the evergreens!) Thanks everybody!!!!
