Love the light in the new siggie.

Good evening, Christmas family

Worked for just a little today and then put my Fall decorations out in the living room !! It is so great to have all the decorations back again...Now if it would just COOL OFF...

I plan to try and make it an early day tomorrow and I am hoping there will be enough work...I am so sleepy but I wanted to check in before I went to bed....

Hope all are well and big (((Hugs))) including:

Ella, Harlowe, Snowball, Gomez, Ophelia, Sidney, Alex, Merlin, Snickers, Victor, Daisy, Diva, Mickey, Palmer, Mouse, Bo, Chico, Meca, Alvin, Charlie, Gary, Bailey, Jerrold, Irving, Martha, Uncle Julio, Missy, Scooby, Sasha, Jacob, Cracker, Bunny B, Penny, Pocket, LuLu, Bear-Bear, Stripey, Holly, Fate Puppy (London) and all furkids everywhere xoxoo

In one of my fall magazines, there was an announcement that for a limited time, Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte ice cream will be available. Yum!

Britt, awesome dog and I'm sure glad you are back here!

Johnor, good to hear from you, too!

Binger, Pumpkin Spice Lattes coming soon to a Starbucks near you!

Night! See everyone in the morning!

I have to ask Elf Bazaar, where is Brecon?

me too!, i wish all the shops had their stuff out now its so boring here!

 

[Seawaters]

I just knew it was erythematous!!! Ha, ha, ha, whatever that is!!! I love your plan about bringing Solice and Elf Bazaar to the States. That would be so much fun!!! I just love Christmas dreams!

...My foot is KILLING ME !! My left third toe is swollen to twice its size, is warm and erythematous....Anyone know what that sounds like ?? I self-diagnosed it as psoriatic arthritis but I don't know. I just know it HURTS like the bee-jeebers. I can't even bend it because if I do it is agony.

Anyway, Christmas is surely coming and that makes everything right !! I can't wait to put up my tree in just two months !! Plus decorating my sister's tree is the highlight of the Season for me !!

Solice and Elf Bazaar - I adopted both of you so you can come and see all the pretty Christmas things in the shops here as they come in. I know you would love it here but your countries are beautiful as well. Norway is so gorgeous and England, well, I have always been an anglophile. If I were a billionaire I would fly both you and your families to America and put you up in the Plaza hotel from now until Christmas with all the money you needed to really enjoy yourselves. Wouldn't that be fun ?? After all, we do have Seawaters and her Lear Jet so I am sure If I asked really nice she may fly you in !

Have a wonderful, magical, Christmassy day dear Christmas family xo

I am going to limp down the hall now....Just call me hop along Canine !

The font that is used in your ornament siggie is one of my favorites. I have been trying to figure out which one it is. Do you know?

Good morning, Christmas Family !

Happy Labor Day !

Getting ready to head down the hall to work and just wanted to stop in. I sure hope I have plenty to type today.....If not, I will make it up on the weekend.......

My plans include driving an older friend (in her 80s) to Chico for her to visit with her daughter. My friend has macular degeneration and cannot drive. Another friend is going along. After we drop Margaret off, then Debra and I are going shopping (only for a little while) at Michael's and JoAnn's. Then I have to get home and get some assessments ready to copy!

Good morning and Happy Labor Day to you all! How is everyone? I am well, just getting breakfast for the kids and starting to do some things around the house.

Any Labor Day plans? My parents, sister, and her boyfriend are coming in for lunch today. I guess you could call it a picnic, but it will be inside, it is raining out off and on. That's okay, we'll still enjoy ourselves.

DH is working - I know some of you probably read my post last night about him possibly getting called into work. Well, he never did, but they ended up having 3 fires total last night. Those guys, a long with all emergency personnel work so hard. God Bless them, especially on this Labor Day! Thank goodness for the unions - I don't know what we would do without my husband's!

Well, off to read some posts and then get some things done. Hope everyone enjoys today - back to work tonight...blah! :lol:

I can hardly wait to get to Michael's and JoAnn's. They will have those scented pinecones and spicy candles. I love that smell when I walk in!

Have you opened every box of stock and got really excited? i always do that as soon as it comes in then i get in a muddle and need staff in to help me sort it ! but my favourite delivery came in last week scented pine cones christmas spice all day every day lush!

 

[Christmasstar]

Is anyone going to Canada or is anyone from Canada coming to the States? Maybe you could meet up somewhere so Undrtkr could get his cookbook!

I have a mail box in Port Huron (was using a friends in Niagra Falls, but got my own now) I have already been there picking up stuff. The books can be mailed there.

TamaraQT, please share your "finds" and ideas. I love trying new things!

Good Morning All,
Its a rainy Labor Day here in New Jersey. Makes the end of the summer season sad and somber. But the good news is, at least I get to focus on upcoming Holiday season. I am thinking about adding something different to my holiday menu this year, but haven't decided on anything yet. I will browse around and see what I can find. Gives me something to do since its so dreary outside. I hope everyone is having a MERRY day.

Thank you Christmasstar for keeping us updated!

it has been fun!

When Hubby saw all the white, he asked me if I were going to color it again. I assured him I was, as soon as I have enough!!!

that is great! (mine comes in all white now too, thank goodness for hair color!!)

On my way to Chico. TTYL

Good afternoon, MMC!

Jalapeno jelly is made and the kitchen is semi-clean. I have a load of dishes to do yet, but I have the jelly resting where I put the dishes to air dry, so it will have to wait until later. I have to start packing the truck for the trip to the store tomorrow. I so want to take a nap, but I guess I will make some coffee instead.

Have a MERRY day!

:merry:
