Christmas Countdown - 2009

[Crown 84]

.....only two more years left and I hit the big 3-0

As one who has already hit the "big 3-0" (and the big 4-0 AND the big 5-0) let me tell you you are YOUNG! Enjoy it.

Good Morning, Friends and Fellow Christmas Geezers!

It's a sunny but very chilly morning here in Raleigh where we stand at 27.
We are supposed to get into the mid 50's by this afternoon but I'll believe it when I see it.

Our daily count:
Days to the Season: 265
Days to Christmas Day:307
Wow! One hundred days into the journey to Christmas Season 2009!
The 300-Day Christmas Day window (and the last day of Feb) exactly a week away. Time's a flyin'!

Looks like it will be nip and tuck to see if we can reach the 1,000 post mark by the end of Feb 28. Keep those messages coming!

Have a Fabulous Friday, Folks!
I hope your Weekend has taken off on a Wonderous start.

A good Saturday to all my Christmas Friends! I've been watching it snow and cleaning the house as I wait for things to download today - lol. It is slower than molasses at times so I'm getting a lot accomplished. Been trying to figure out what to give up for Lent - quite a puzzle this year. Have a great weekend, everyone!!

.....I remember 30.... I celebrated with a double cuppa joe/java .....

You mean back when it only cost 25 cents a cup, Bing?

getting closer!!

I went out shopping this morning and to mail my entrance fee to the 2009 sugar art competition in Markham this April. I am entering cakes in the baby theme and the wedding cakes. First I have to come up with a design for each, then spend hours and hours and hours making flowers and other decorations to put on them. Just finished the bases for 26 roses, even though I am not firm on the design yet, I do know the wedding cake will have lots of flowers.
It is snowing again, so I am going to get a mug of hot choc. and enjoy a movie.

also..

the lottery (6-49) is having the biggest prize ever, over 40 million $'s. I don't buy into this one very often, but thought I woud give it a spin this time. Who knows, maybe I will get that trailer sooner than I thought!

 

[trackrebel]

for 40millions...you could get a whole trailor park....they gave out 35mio Euros three weeks ago in Germany in the lottery....in the end...2 people won it....each something like17millions.....the one I was happy the most, was one who lost his job due to the bad situation we are all in right now...he has 17mio right now....he sid the best was...now he could find a job without any pressure...

 

[Binger]

WOW for 40 million I could buy the nation of Brazil and all their coffee plantations.. ohhhh ohhh just the thought.. ohh ecstasy..ohh ohjhjhjhj

YABBAx1,0000

 

[Binger]

And Jay could buy a pair of gold plated leotards to paus du lux in...

ohhh ohhhhhh ecstasy////

YABBA YABBA

 

[Binger]

And Maureen could get the world's largest plaid slip cover and slip it over the entire state of North Carolina....

What a great idea.. ohhh YABBA

 

[Binger]

And let's not forget.. Crown's ability to buy a double firm comfort padded mattress with a built in sushi bar.,,,,, ohhhh ohhhhhh

YABBA

anyone else want to weigh in here...?

 

[trackrebel]

watching North and South.....stupid Justin LaMotte just took Madeleine away from Mont Royal again....I hate that guy with a passion...he´s very well played by David Carradine....or whatever his name is.

 

[trackrebel]

We might go to the big Carnival Parade in Mainz tomorrow...depends on the weather

 

[trackrebel]

Weather is very, very annoying tho...it´s very cold and humid....rain is falling from time to time...very annoying

 

[Crown 84]

And let's not forget.. Crown's ability to buy a double firm comfort padded mattress with a built in sushi bar.....

Or a mattress factory, where I could sleep on a different one every night.
(Just think of all those sleep numbers waiting to be tried out!)

Good Morning Friends and Fellow Christmas Multi-Millionaires! (Hey! If you've got the Christmas Spirit who needs millions?)

Rainy here this morning but the temp is about 20 degrees warmer than it was this time yesterday.
(A shame. To get the warmer temps, we almost always have to accept rain with it!)

The daily count:
Days to the Season: 264
Days to Christmas Day:306
Under a week now to the 300-Day Christmas Day window!

Have a Super Sunday, Everyone!
Get rested up (on the mattress of your choice) to begin moving another week closer to Christmas Season 2009 tomorrow.

 

[trackrebel]
