Christmas Countdown - 2009

[Annette]

Hi Gang! A beautiful Saturday afternoon here. Blue skies and in the mid 50's. Kinda strange weather this time of the year but i'm not complaining. We have been busy with our home project. Knocking out walls and getting busy. Decided to take a break so daughter can do a little AR testing for school. I've been up since 5am and on the go. Today was d/d's first basketball game. They won 37-24! She had alot of fun! I will be taking her to a classmates birthday party in about an hr. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!cheesy

Crown,

If you're ever in Salt Lake the 2nd week of December, let me know. Attending to MoTab's annual Christmas concert is a tradition that so few outside of Utah know and appreciate. Christmas just gets better every single year....

Oh, we who appreciate the choir know, regardless of location. I make it a point to see their PBS Christmas show broadcasts every year!

Hello- Christmassy People! I am grabbing a bottle of wine and off to a leetllleeee party which a neighbor is throwing for some out-of-town guests. It is really cold in our house. It went down to 58 degrees this morning. Now it is up to 62. But it will probably get colder overnight. Sigh. If it hits 30 degrees outside - that will feel like a heat wave!

With all due respect SN, the only thing that made sense to me was the grabbing a bottle of wine part!!!!!

Hello, Everyone!

I just discovered the Post Reply button at the lower left of the page. Love it! Otherwise I started my annual Christmas ornament making. This year I'm doing Santas of the world in twisted paper and cross stitch. Hope everyone is staying warm and didn't get a lot of snow like we did today - 4 inches. Stay safe!!

Back from the party! There were many more bottles of wine at the party! This enabled the guests at the party to solve MANY of the problems which the world is facing! And now - to a cozy nights sleep!!!!!

Hey Crown Up And At Em.. There Is A 2 To Place On The Countdown Today.....

You are so right, my coffee-stained friend!
So let's get straight to the count:
Days to the Season: 299
Days to Christmas Day:341
Wow! Doesn't that starting "2" look nice?
It always seems like we have moved forward more than just one day once that first digit changes, doesn't it?

Well, not so cold this morning.
Thirty-Four sure isn't warm but it's a darn sight better than the 12 we had yesterday!
On the down side, however, it is cloudy with an off and on again light rain.
Should be clear for next week, though (along with the return of colder temps!)

Have a Super Sunday, Everybody!
Get all rested up to commence moving into yet another week - one more closer to our Glorious, Fantastic, Incredible Christmas Season!

 

[SparkleNana]

And good wishes right back at you Crown 84! It is a wonderful for being thankful for the good things!

Good afternoon! Been snowing off & on all day today! I haven't gone outside at all yet, so I don't know what the temperature is like! I do know when my sil & niece came to the door, the air they let in sure was cold!! Lol!! ;-)

Hope you all have a great Sunday!
