Christmas Countdown - 2010

[made582]

Power was out last night for awhile (I woke up because it was suddenly to quiet, no fan going!)

The same thing woke me up this morning. I got awake about 6am this morning when my power went off and the fan stopped. We had some strong storms go through but it has calmed down for now.

Good Morning all.... did not sleep good last night, going to be a long day! Out little guy was up and down all night crying. Would not tell us what was wrong... well around 5 am a slight fever started to set in, caught it as it was starting.

I hope he gets feeling better soon!!!!!!

We've been planning a rummage sale this weekend to raise more money for city beautification. We worked on it till 10 pm last night. Our group, The Friends of Bellville, bought the Christmas banners for the street poles last year, and I want to buy some fall banners this year. Here's hoping it goes well!

Good Luck with the sale!!!!!!!

Good morning, everyone!!

Another overcast day. They are calling for rain throughout much of today. No problems here as it is nice in the office. Thursday is another busy day. I have the gym and then practice. I was contemplating taking a break but I will do that next Thursday when my dad, mom and her husband are visiting for my Graduation. I'd like to spend as much time with them as possible.

Not much happening today. My boss is out of town for about a week and a half. My other boss will be leaving tomorrow. Hopefully they find enough work for me to complete while they are gone!

5 more days until our next Milestone? As soon as the weekend is over, we have something to look forward to. I like that! If only every week had a milestone! Until that happens, I guess we'll just keep circling those weekends!

Have a great Thursday, everyone!!

Well it has been a long morning. I was without power for about 4 hours but thankfully the first line of storms passed by and they got it back on before the next line arrives. Mom did good at therapy yesterday and she had her second appointment this morning. I plan on spending some time today looking for new candy recipes to try out before Christmas. I hope everyone has a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That was some awesome fun at the Shispering Pines last night. Can't believe I drank that weird new coffee blend Carl made - talk about "Strange Brew", it kept me awake all night singing Christmas carols.

Feel bad for the other customers because I can't sing very well. :-?


Tomorrow is our local Relay for Life event to raise funds and awareness for Cancer. This is my fourth year participating and I always managed to walk the whole twelve hours - minus one and a half somewhere along the line to grab a banana or an orange and rest for a moment. I can't rest long like some of my other team members because I realize how much everything is starting to ache. Besides, I'm the team mascot. HaHa.

If I don't make it back sooner, I'll catch up on Sunday.

Stay Merry Folks! :hello:

What a busy past couple of days! We had a garage sale these last 2 days. Yesterday we made about $120, today about $35. It wasn't busy at all this year. We didn't have big ticket items like we usually do, but still not a lot of people! I'm exhausted!

Absolutely exhausted. Did a nice crossfit workout today and then had practice. I am still injured, so I stood on the sidelines and gave advice when necessary. Kind of a good thing. The workout really wiped me out.

Good night, everyone!!

Sorry to hear that you didn't as well this year. My apartments and my sisters housing edition are both having a community garage sale the next 3 days as part of the national US 40 sale. I am not putting anything out but I have to babysit my nieces so my sister can run hers.

 

[made582]

Well I am heading to bed so I can get a good nights rest before a full day of babysitting. Goodnight Everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today was another long day for me, my older son is dealing with the ear infection, and it wiped him out he actually took a nap today while my 2 y/o was napping, quiet time for me. The kittens are doing really well they are growing so big so fast, we have decided to keep 3 of them to give us a total of 5 cats, all of them are such little lovers who would have thought that when we found them. My diet is still going strong I have lost a total of 19lbs, 6 more until I reach the goal my doctor set for me, 16 for my personal goal. I am really enjoying my snacks of trail mix and low fat 'Nilla Wafers, it truly is amazing how much better everything tastes since I gave up sugary sweets and drinks.

Have a good night all!

Believe it or not (and I wouldn't if I was you), I just got home from work about 10 minutes ago. HOLY COW!! That's all I got to say about that. No coffee tonight for me!

I can't believe that we are about to be under 160 days until the season gets here.....

Good night...see everyone tomorrow.
