Days to Christmas Day: 342
Oh yes, indeed! Our first marker on the long journey back to Christmas has arrived. The 300-day Season window has opened and the view into the territory of the two-hundreds looks great!

Yay!

You guys are posting like crazy. I missed the weekend also and dont have enough time to go back and catch up cheesy.

I hear ya! I just missed a little yesterday and was overwhelmed by all the post. As Martha Stewart says, "It's a good thing". :lol:

Morning all! Its going to be one of those weeks for me! My youngest daughter has her immunisations today, My 5yr old is on antibiotics for a ear and chest infection and eye drops for an eye infection!! and my eldest goes into hospital on friday for 4 teeth removing under a general aneasthetic (sorry if spelt wrong)

Ive barely slept for the past couple of nights due to my poorly girl coughing and not being able to settle and on top of that ive had an argument with my boss at work who seems to think I should be at work rather than looking after my children! I wouldnt mind but its so rare I have time off for anything!!!

Sorry for the rant, gonna go make a cuppa and browse the forums, roll on next week when it will all be over!!!!
Have a great day everyone!:

No need to apologize, hope your 5 y/o feels better, and the little one does okay with the shots, and your eldest has an easy surgery for the teeth. It is amazing how some people don't understand your family comes first.

I agree with the first part, but not the second part. I don't want the Steelers to win!!!

I am just happy the Pats lost, go NFC.

Better late than never. I finally started my new year's resolution this morning by hitting the treadmill. Quickly learned just how out of shape I was. A 7 day cruise in early Dec. followed by the holidays really did a number on my waisteline.

Thats how the holiday memories stick with you early in the year cheesy, I need to refocus myself eating habits after the months of November & December. Who am I kidding October and early January also, it's like one big buffet once Halloween hits until my birthday in early January.

Good Morning all. I had a rough night last night of coughing and sneezing. I am not feeling too well this morning and plan to rest all day since I am off work and the grandkids will not be over. I guess that means I will be spending more time with you all on here today, unless I fall back to sleep. cheesy I got to get better because the grandkids will be over the rest of the week.

I hope you all have a great day!

Pop in a a Christmas movie or CD lay back, enjoy the posts and get yourself feeling better.

I was on Sunday morning but just missed the rest of the day and still couldn't catch up! Busy countdown! cheesy

Good Monday morning, my Christmas friends!

Doggone!

I miss one weekend, and there are so many posts I can't read them all!

I worked all Saturday morning, then my son had a basketball game that afternoon. Since it was the last day of deer season down here, we went deer hunting after the game (without luck).

Sunday we went to church, then to my mom's for lunch. We spent the day out there. The we had to rush home to see the new episodes being aired on the Disney Channel. LOL

I'm glad to get back to a little more normal.

I hope you all have a great day! cheesy

We want that 20,000!

I forgot to tell you all that Dylan had crabcakes for the 1st time last week! Being a Marylander we are big seafood people especially crabs. He loved them haha... I only gave him a little since he really isnt suppose to have seafood until he is 2 years old and he is 17 months but I couldnt help but let him try them..his mouth was watering watching us eat cheesy

Good morning,


Back to work in a couple hours, but day off tomorrow with another snowstorm about to bear down on us tomorrow into Wednesday. Everyone at work will be so quiet about the Patriots today so that will be music to my ears, I will be kind and not rub it into their noses after all I am a Bengals fan and I wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

Have a great Monday!

Good morning... enjoying the day home with the kids... Today I really have the holiday feelings going on... Not just Christmas but Thanksgiving as well. Maybe this afternoon I will pop in a Christmas movie.. we shall see if I have time though.
I got to get another tote to store the Christmas gifts we bought already. The one I had I filled with the Christmas quilts I bought on clearance after Christmas for next year.
Well off to see what I will make the kids for lunch.. have a great day all!

Good Morining!

2011 marks the first year since 1981 that I will be able to celebrate U.S. Holidays on the calender day they fall!

So, Happy observation of Martin Luther King Day and/or Robert E. Lee Day!

Good plan, superdave, about being the first one to post. An admirable goal!

Well guess I well head to bed as well but thought I'd jump in and get the first post of the day in. So "Good Morning Everyone" hope you each and everyone of you has a wonderful day. I will see you again sometime real soon.

Can hardly wait to hear all about it. Did you take pictures?

Hey you guys. I just came home from working at a cake show&fair. It was great, got to meet lovely and famous cakedecoraters and got the chance to make new friends. I am very very tired now... so I'm going to get myself some coffee and rest

hope all of you are well and that i'll be able to catch up soon

With Wayne being from Maryland, as well, he has told me how popular the crabcakes are. If he sees advertisement about crabcakes here in Texas claiming they are great, he tells me that only in Maryland they are great! =)

Back to work in a couple hours, but day off tomorrow with another snowstorm about to bear down on us tomorrow into Wednesday.

Stay safe in that snowstorm!

LOVE those half-masks. They really made me laugh!

Very chilly here this morning at -16c this morning.
Have to finish off the flowers for mom's cake and make some phone calls about a job.

Hope you all have a fantastic day!!!
and if you are finding it hard to smile today, get yourself one of these:

Murphman,
I am not sure how to activate a Platinum Membership. Does anyone know?
