Christmas Countdown - 2011

[Christmas-A-Holic]

Well I had high hopes of getting some stuff done today but I have been on the phone it seems all day. My sisters are apparently bored and they keep calling. I no sooner hang up with one and the other calls. I finally told them to had to leave me alone so I could watch Valerie on qvc. I guess I should be happy that they want to talk to me.

Oh boy! So you are the person to call when we are bored!

Listen up MMC, when you are bored call Made!!!!! He will send you Christmas cheer! :???:

Just about ready to pull out my apple cake it smells so wonderful in here right now. Made pork chops, cauliflower, and red cabbage for dinner. I just feel fall-ish!!! I have the church meeting tomorrow on the play - we are going to do a bake-ramage sale to raise some money. props are coming along but one of the ladies on costumes told me they need HELP. So maybe we can raise some much needed funds. I was thinking of making red velvet woopie pies.

I made homemade pumpkin and banana nut muffins today. They are gluten free and I was surprised how well they turn out. Most gluten free stuff is dry.

I was baking with the sound of Christmas music in the background. cheesy

Good morning, Christmas family!

I should be staying at home today and working on organization and stock, but I have a monster of a headache again and so I am going to go to town and take a walk on the rail trail - the fresh air will do me good and I will get to some local color. Maybe the local thrift store will have put out some of the Christmas loot they have been teasing about for the past month. Love this time of year!

Have a MERRY day!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glad to have read more down on in the thread that your headache went away!

I am home from USA, back in Norway - with Jetlag.
We had a great time! But times travel fast!!
Good to see the kids again though -)

It was so MUCH Halloween stuff in Chicago. Wow.
Im impressed guys. You are so lucky.
And I bought a lot Halloween stuff and lots of candy.
Hope the kids get surprised the 31th...
Because I have stasched it away...

Sounds like you had a lovely time. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Good Morning, everyone!
Hope you all are doing well!!
I need to catch up on here- between computer issues & having my sister here, it has been busy We have had a great time together.
Back to work today, though.
I saw so many neat Christmas decorations over the weekend at Marshalls, Ross, and Kohl's. 'Tis The Season!! So exciting! I bought a few things, but didn't go too crazy. It was difficult!
We finally have cooler temperatures! Highs in the low 70's today, and rain. Yay!
Well, just wanted to say hi. Hope you all have a fantastic day!!

Glad you had a nice time with your sister!

Thanks, LB =)
She is doing ok. We had to take her into the vet on Saturday for her complete blood work, and the liver function test was moved up because of her symptom upset. Unfortunately, it was a timed test, and one of the technicians dropped the ball on the second part of it, so we have to take her back within 30 days to finish it. I was very annoyed to say the least. Anyways, we get the basic labs back sometime tomorrow. I'll let you guys know when I get the results. For her stomach problems, they put her on some probiotic capsules & paste. Hope they help & fast! Poor little thing. Thank you for thinking of her!

Hope you get good results! Will continue to pray!

Good morning everyone! Pinesday tomorrow! I will be there in my Halloween costume. LOL.

Just sitting here at work. Dead this morning. Drinking...yes..Coffee! 2nd cup so far. They were talking on the radio saying its too early to see Halloween stuff. Wait. Are they nuts? I think so. Ill have to take a trip to walmart and see if they have any Christmas stuff out (more pictures for the Christmas Blossoms thread!). Still waiting on a call to see if I have the job. On a positive note, TD called me references so that's good. Well back to doing (no) work! haha! Have a Christmas-e day!

Too early for Halloween stuff, that's old news now, bring on the Christmas stuff!

Hey everyone! Just stopping by real quick to say hello! I had such a busy night at work last night. I got pulled to the Maternity side of the hospital at about 3:00 am - there were four girls in labor - 3 delivered for my shift and I still had a pt. in labor when I left. Plus - there were already pts. who had delivered and we take care of their babies too! Talk about busy. There were only 2 nurses over there working at the time, which is just nuts, so that is why they pulled me. We still had our hands full once I got there though! Needless to say, I never got a break or supper and I had 2 hours of overtime, so by the time I got to bed it was 11:00 am. I got 2 hours of sleep today! Thank goodness I am off the next two days, especially because my husband is night shift! Well, we take Ella to the vet tomorrow - wish me luck. Hope everyone had a great day!

Good evening,

The tour went well, I busted my butt getting everything ready for it and I am very tired, my late shift tomorrow, blah! I at least get Thursday off now. I am catching up on posts, watching the movie Frankenstein (1931, Boris Karloff) I haven't watched it in years it is such a great movie. It feels so much later than it is, waiting for my laundry to be done before I go to bed.


Have a great night!
