Good evening all!

Long day again, we decided to wait on getting a new car, just not the right time yet. It is going to be cold tonight, in the 30's if there is any moisture who knows might get a little snow cheesy.
Have a good night!
 
Did you also know that means 98 days until Darlene LLLLLLOOOOOOVVVVVVEEEEEEEE (in case you didn't know that means I was singing in my opera voice).
 
I like to go back and read posts from earlier in the year or last year. Seems like yesterday we were at the 100 day mark last year. As soon as Christmas was over, I thought it will take FOREVER to get back....in two hours and 14 minutes, we are back in business! Do you realize how quick 100 days is going to go? Isn't it awesome?

I have to say....this is my first complete year and I have a blast every time I come here. Here's to the next 100 days guys, gals, and gender-nuetral friends!
 
99 days...we are in the double digits....cruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazy!!!!
 
Good Morning Christmas Pals,

Well today is the milestone...100 days til Christmas!! Oh Happy Day!! cheesy
But being a newer member here, I am a little confused. Today we celebrate the 100 mark, but the forum has the countdown at 99 days. So I am assuming that we are counting down to Christmas Day and the Forum count at the top of the page counts down to Christmas Eve? Is that right?

Since I do more celebrating on Christmas Eve, I guess the forum count is more accurate for me. But the days to the season (Nov 13th), is important to me to since that is when I will put up my tree!!

Congrats to all of us for reaching the 100 day milestone!! It's fantastic to be able to come here and celebrate together!!

:razz:

That one used to confuse me too, never made sense that the count seemed a day behind the counter at the top of the page. So I asked Crown about it and was told that the count post is done in the morning when there is still over 16 hours in the day, so it is counted as the day before. Does that make it all clear as mud? Hope I explained it right. cheesy
 
:)) No presents to open today, but I did receive my first ornament of the season from a friend that found a year round holiday store and gave me directions, it's only two hours away by car.

:cry: Hmmm. In a few weeks, I'm planning a little road trip might as well take my camera along for the ride because I'm sure the leaves will be in full Autumn hues by then. So far, only the older trees are beginning to turn.
 
Good afternoon MMC!! Well the autumn is definately here for us. Leaving work last night I was really cold, so I stopped at the hospital coffee bar and picked up a hot chocolate to drink whilst walking to the car! Felt great, think Im going to make that a regular evening thing now. Warmed me right up for my journey home. It made me feel really christmassy for some reason lol Hope you all have a great day xx

Oh and............99 Days!!!!!!!:treeguy:
 
Good Morning everyone!!! Man stay off of here for a few days and you really get behind!!!! I am off from work today as our son has his 4 yr old checkup today. May have to go shopping afterwards to see if I can pick up a christmas present or two! cheesy

We have been enjoying the nice cooler temps, hoping it doesn't warm up again. Planning on start decorating for fall this weekend can not wait! Going to go and get some fall scents tarts todays.

Block Buster is closing their store here in town and I was able to pick on some Christmas DVDs for really cheap... got Blitzen, How the grinch stole Christmas and another christmas cartoon for the kids.

Have a great day everyone!!!
 
Happy 99 days everyone!! If only the weather here would reflect the season I would be thrilled. The highs this week are supposed to be in the low 90's with lows in the upper 60's! That's ridiculous for the middle of September! I'll be glad when the highs are in the upper 60's so I can enjoy autumn. I've got my hot tea and hot chocolate stockpiled so I'm ready:). Have a great day everybody!!

Essentially.
I guess you could say we are simply rounding it off.
Since we are over 99 1/2 days off from Christmas, it makes sense to say 100 days.
Following that forward to Christmas Eve morning, you would not say zero more days to Christmas, would you? That would mean it was Christmas Day already, skipping the rest of Christmas Eve. (And we wouldn't want to do that would we??)

Regardless of how you see it, submitted for your approval is my interpretation of the count:
Days to the Season: 58
Days to Christmas Day: 100
And regardless, the 100 DAY WINDOW HAS BEEN OPENED!! and we hereby pass through into double-digit territory (when things start going in fast motion).
Better start thinking about those Christmas Season plans, eh?

Well, we reached 94 degrees here yesterday, even hotter than was predicted.
Didn't feel that hot to me, so the humidity must have been down.
Currently it is 72 here, calm and sunny.

Well, can we "count" on everyone to have a Thrilling Thursday and think ahead with anticipation to Weekend Eve tomorrow?
(I thought so!)
 
Welcome to thursday already? I saw my first "winter" commercial on tv. It was for glade winter scented candles. Showed it snowing outside a window. Very nice :) Hope you all have a good day! Its raining here and cool.
 
Good Moning all my fellow friends.

So happy to see we have reached the 100 days or 99 1/2 which ever you look at it. I am excited and cant wait much longer.
 
Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

The 100 day is finally here! Some of my neighbors have started putting out their Fall decorations. I can't decide if it's too early or not. I'll give it one more week, but I'm ready to decorate something!

We're going over to eat at mama's tonight. She makes the most wonderful homemade spaghetti sauce in the world! She's leaving in the morning for a trip to the mountains. I'm not jealous at all. Seriously. It doesn't bother me in the least that she's leaving her firstborn son behind while she visits his favorite place on Earth. Riiiight.

I hope you all have a great weekend! cheesy

We pray your mom has a fun, safe trip. The NC Mountain fair in Asheville is running until 9/17 if she is looking for something fun to do.
