Christmas Countdown - 2009

[AuntieMistletoeDear]

Hey, Auntie!
Mind if I copy it too?
(Not that I need any help falling asleep)

Sure, go ahead, one of these days some of my favourites will be for sale as a perpetual calendar. The first one and third one are on my list!

Yo Auntie...can I copy those pictures....I love cats....and Yours is adorable....mine is just laying by my feet....biting em...lol....little bada##

Yeppers! O'Malley has fallen in love with the attention during our photo shoots. He can be a real ham at times.

for one brief moment we had a glorious flash of sunshine! It was nice, but radar shows more rain on the way. I hope we get to church before it starts, but I think we will be walking in the rain this morning.

Blue Jays game was fun to go to, although they did loose :-?.

Geesh! I haven't been to a Blue Jays games since the last one when at the Exhibition Place before they moved to the SkyDome. They won against L.A. that time.

I watch the games on TV now and then. Still have my old Jays win World Series (the second in a row from the early 80's before the Ball strike the following year).

Lotsa rain the last few days, brief power surge lastnight, but things seem tame right now.

If we blow hard enough, we can send our rain over to Texas where they seem to need it more than us or out to Kelowna BC.

Happy Boxing Day in July! Hahahoho! )

Good Morning, Good Morning!

A bright and sunny one here in Raleigh where we stand at 78 wonderfully walkable degrees at this hour. We should have a dry and hot one today.
The predicted high is 96 (which would match our high yesterday). Then off and on rain for most of next week.

Our count, to round out the week:
Days to the Season: 110
Days to Christmas Day:152
And as anyone can plainly see (unless they are in a coffee stupor) we are now at the threshhold of single digits to double digits!
Yes folks, as of tomorrow we will be only 9 days away from the 100-Day milestone to our glorious Christmas Season. WOW!

Have a Super Sunday, Everybody.
Get all rested up to begin moving another week closer to Christmas.
May the Spirit of the Season be with you today and always!

[Binger]

Wouldnt that be the threshold of triple digits to double digits? Sheshh... wake up-
have a cup of Starbicks...
YABBA

 

[Binger]

Good morning all... it sunny and already very warm here......going to be a hot day today. Good thing I plan on staying inside watching QVC and chistmas movies today.....Well coffee should be ready now so going to grab a cup or two or three.....LOL!

Have the whole pot- I did!!

YABBA!

 

[ballcoach]

This pot is for you Binger....I'm halfway through it!

Boy, is it good to be home....I love to travel, love it! But to be back around my family and friends....just the best feeling in the world! I even missed my wife! HAHA (after I got done choking on my coffee, I wanted to add I missed her the most..awww)

So here we are....I AM ONE WEEK AWAY BEFORE BEGINNING CHRISTMAS PREPERATION! Now keep in mind, I drag it out, but shopping starts, organizational things start, my wife loves Halloween so I plan some special things for that...it's really just organizaing the next 5 months! My wife, who loves Christmas (but not like me), said last night that we only have 3 mores months to Christmas music (did it ever stop)! But she is beginning to get excited about it! I'm pretty excited!

I'm going to finish drinking coffee and reading what I missed this week! Look forward to seeing you again tonight! Going to try my hardest to make it tonight b/c I need to get some ideas! Have a wonderful day today!

hi all,

i've had a lovely, lazy sunday.

i'm watching a programme that we have over here in the uk called "come dine with me" 5 people host a dinner party on different nights and they are scored by the other guests. this particular one that i am watching was filmed in the summer and the man that is hosting it has gone for a christmas theme! he's a christmas nut and it looks like a great dinner party, roast turkey and all the trimmings - yum yum!

 

[Crown 84]

Wouldnt that be the threshold of triple digits to double digits? Sheshh.....

As usual, our resident coffee-holic doesn't know beans. (Well actually, they DO know BEANS)
Once we pass 109, we will be 9 (single digits) away from 99 (double digits).
Therefore, single digits to double digits was correct.

 

[trackrebel]

Yo fellas....we are in the chat right now!!!! come on join us

 

[caseydbell]

WOW, getting so close, guess I'll try to find something Christmas to watch =D

Is it any good?

 

[Moondust]

Hello all I'm new here but thought I'd pop into chat to say hi. I've had a weekend of sitting in a caravan listening to torrential rain. Oddly enough, I prefer that to heatwaves. I've never been a summer person (hence why I'm already obsessively concerned with Christmas in July...)

Hope you've all had lovely weekends!!!

Bee x

 

[Maureen]

Only if you're interested in weddings and like a good b*tch-fest!!!

I'm a registrar so was officiating at one of the weddings!

[ballcoach]

I Missed The Stinkin Chat Again!!!!!!!!!!!! Nnnnnnnooooooooooooooo!

 

[Santa's Helper]

Well here it is, 3:14 am and I am up! I'm up because this is my normal time to be up but, because I didn't go to work tonight! I forgot to set my alarm and I woke up late and as if that's not bad enough I woke up with a headache and having back spasms! I just figured that it was a bad enough night already so why make it worse! So, I'm just sitting here on the couch with my laptop and watching tv. Have a good day all!

 

[trackrebel]

I hope Y´all are alright. did some work in the morning...am a little tired...dunno why...maybe the heat.

have a nice day everybody
