KMXI, known as K-Mix at 95.1 in Chico, California. We are about 80 miles north of Sacramento.

Which one? We need a full report along with any listen link in the radio schedule thread!

A station in Sacramento went all Christmas on November 14th.
 
Good afternoon everyone!

Its that time again in the States! As Charlie Brown said "we have another holiday to worry about. It appears Thanksgiving day is upon us!". Did you finish eating all your Halloween candy? haha. Out Van had to have more (yes more) repairs. Break pads and rotors. yay. Hopefully this weekend William gets to see Santa. He wasn't feeling well last weekend. I have been listening to Christmas music nonstop! I still cant find a local channel in London Ontario on the radio playing 24/7 Christmas music. Booo for that. I DID find Yankee Candles! After the English Butler closed, the Yankee Candle company said they don't sell them at all in London then. I found that Homesence carries them ALL THE TIME. Picked up two! Yay! Well back to work I go. Hope everyone is getting ready and I think Ill call in tonight to gobble it up on the mmc phone line! Dont laugh...or do...heh.

PS Carl is confused. He walked up to me and in a John Wayne accent said "Welcome Pilgrim!" haha
 
good afternoon/evening everyone..
how is all the cooking and baking going with you all
cm3 ..so glad the results can back good
Kinda got a start on my outdoor decor. the new items i got from the usa this year took them out and chaged the plugs and tested then as our electric is 240v and the usa is 110 so i have to use a site convertor to use then have 2 more to do
I have to laugh at scooby my boxer.. i got a 7 foot carosuel and when built it goes round the there is flashing tube lighting on in. well i had left it on after it was built and scooby was inside so did not see it. he went to go out and just stopped dead in his tracks. the hair started to stand on his back and away he went barking and barking he went over to where the carosuel was going round and stood and barked till i went over and qnd told him to shut up.
Hoping all is good with all of you ..so will catch up with later

!!! thought this picture was cute !!! lol

 
Good morning my dearest of friends!
Well, It's pines day pines day! I will finish off the rest of my Christmas cards tonight and hopefully get them on their way!! DB has helped me write them out so far... so for some of you,.. it may just say your username inside the card... and then from brittd19 hahahah... he was freaking out because he didn't know what too say!! silly guy:)

I start my new job tomorrow, at The Source!! Its hourly wage with commision on top.. hopefully my inner saleswoman comes out hahaha
 
Well I'm off to the Pines for awhile before heading to my sisters house. See you all there!!!!!!!!!!!
 
I am taking a short break from cooking. I didn't really have time to read everything because I got to get back to work!

I hope for those who are cooking and baking for the big day tomorrow are enjoying it! =)
 
Hey Made!! I'm joining ya!! I'm bringing some Boney M along! Hope Carl doesn't mind:give:
 
I just talked to my dad, My sisters have seen him and they said his whole left side is dead,thank God he has great insurance that will pay for a full time nurse... He will hate that,but it is what it is, he can't walk at all,and he ran 4 miles a day a 63 years old,but now he is basically wheelchair bound. It's so hard to see my dad that way,he was always so strong and eveything,I know this has to be hard on him,thanks everyone who has prayed for him...the one thing he did say was he should be thankful for what he has..some ppl that had the same kind of stroke he had are in a coma the rest of thier life...

That's got to be hard....but it's early days yet, and he may get back some of what's lost. The human brain is a pretty amazing thing, so don't give up hope. Will he be going to rehab? I know that can work wonders in learning to get back mobility. I'll keep him in my prayers....
 
Hope everyone is having a great day! I'm just busy away in my kitchen baking! It smells sooo good in here! I will be back later to update you all on my day! Happy Thanksgiving eve!
 
Good Afternoon to all! I'm working till 7 tonight, then I'll be doing some things at home to get ready for Thanksgiving dinner. Wow, can't believe it crept up on me like this! But I'm ready for it--my turkey is defrosting in the fridge, I've got my sweet potato pie and I've looked up what channels are showing parades. And what else is needed, really? :grin:

I got my plane tickets for the memorial service yesterday....I leave a week from today. I normally love to travel, but I'm not looking forward to this trip. I was hoping that my husband could come with, but the money just didn't work out right. But my brothers and at least one my sisters will be there, so there will be lots of moral support. And I know it's important to say goodbye. (And I can take my daughter's and granddaughters' Christmas presents with me and save shipping!)

Well, better get back to work! Happy Wednesday to all!

Well he is in the Rehab floor of the hospital. They moved him there straight from his regular room,he goes 3 times a day so far, there is talk that the therapist can come to his home after disharge,but the Dr also has mentioned he could go straight into long term therapy at a nursing home which would be a great idea,but my dad would hate that,at this point I am not sure what the outcome will be. He can talk,not very clearly but he is already alot better than 2 weeks ago,we are only 18 days or so into this so we are just taking it day by day so far! thanks so much for the prayers!
 
Thanksgiving eve is always so hard to plan a dinner menu since the kitchen,oven,etc is full! I decided to grill hamburgers and have mac and cheese that needs cooking,I am starving...my mom's grill is a tiny one and Im cooking 12 burgers so this may not be too good,but I have my fingers crossed. I forgot it's pines night! I think I will turn in early tonight since I am getting up early to cook the ham for mom,I hope everyone has fun at the pines tonight. Talk to you all in the morning!!!
 
V: praying for your friend. I hope you get the job you want for BF at Kohl's - it will make the day go by so much faster.

Yes, I'm still hoping!! Thanks! =)

Everything changes in this town so fast....the bar the fight was in was Mixers' in downtowm I use to work at that bar when I first came here...well I needed the extra money!!! Hey they do have the best music mix!!

Wait...is Mixer's the same as Rick's? If so, I used to go there ALL THE TIME!!!! When did you work there? I may have encountered you at some point, lol!


Thank you, xmas!! I never knew that. =)

I will keep your friend in my thoughts.

Kohl's Black Friday commercials are driving me nuts, the parody of Friday, Friday is enough to make me not want to shop there, if I were to shop on BF. cheesy

OH MY GOD XMAS, I only just saw that commercial yesterday and wanted to DIE! First time ever that I was ashamed to work for them!!! I abhor that song and can't believe they actually used it in a national commercial!!! I wouldn't blame you or anyone if they didn't shop in Kohl's strictly because of that song!!!

Hope your boss does change your assignment for you on Black Friday. As for your friend, hope everything works out for her. Just try to be the best friend you can and support her in the best way possible

Me too, and yes I'm trying to be a good friend, as much as I can be. I am just worried about her making bad and rash decisions and not knowing about them, or being able to stop her. Scares me to death.

Sorry don't want to spoil your mood, but I am sad right now and need to rant a little.

Yesterday we (=family) recieved a official letter from our landlady (house owner). She informed us that she will be vacating our flat to march 2012 the latest. Our house will be teared down sometime around July or August 2012! We lived there since 18 years and it's a big shock to us.

It won't be easy to rent a new flat, because we live in a region with high rents and I am not sure my parents will be able to pay such high rents. If they move away, my mother will be forced to quit her job and search a new one, which doesn't make it any easier.

Now my sister and I have look if we find an affordable flat for ourself, because then my parents can choose a smaller flat which will be cheaper. Could you please pray for us? That would be soooo nice!

I am so sorry about your situation, and wish nothing but the best for you and your family. A ton of good thoughts and vibes coming your way!!! ((hugs))

Vsuclaribnl, Track, Dawg and Cetacea, thinking of you all and will be praying.

Thank you SO MUCH C-A-H!!! <3

VS that was a hard game to watch, I am so angry with them!!!



I haven't checked it out yet but I plan too!!!

Ug ug UGH that was so hard to watch. Sometimes I just don't know what gets into Eli...he has great games, and he has horrific ones. I just don't know why the Giants can't seem to beat the Eagles! At least DeSean Jackson didn't get a last minute runback TD this time...that was a plus!!

When you do check it out, I hope you like it!! <3

Are you kidding me? The one day I watch the Good Morning Show and Justin Bieber is on there? Give me a break!

Oh my god, the horror!!! Only thing that would've made it worse would be seeing a Black Friday Kohl's commercial complete with the Rebecca Black song!!! =D

I have to skip the Pines tonight too since I'm due back in at Kohl's for nighttime cash office at 11:30pm-1:30am! I need to try to take a nap or I might pass out and that'd be no good! :( Hope grilling 12 burgers goes easier than you think!!
 
.........and I'm done! Cooking is over for Thanksgiving 2011. All I have to do in the morning is put some items in the oven and warm or bake them....the rest of the night will be spent doing what needs to be done the most....

being with family.
