Good evening all! Just get home about 30 minutes ago and the roads are HORRIBLE! It has only snowed probably 2 inches, but what was there early had melted prior to this snow falling and froze. The black ice was really bad. Wrecks everwhere.

I am just glad we are home safe!

Glad you are home safe

Here in South Jersey we have seen some flurries and it was brutal cold when I went to the mall with my friend. I hope everyone has a great night. I will probably check in before i go to bed later on

Do you have any suggestions on where to start? Maybe your favorites.

what's the title? I'm looking for some good reading material

I have a few my favorite is this one: "The Time-Life Book of Christmas"
then a few more
"Holiday Lights"-by David Seidman
"The Autobiography of Santa Claus" by Jeff Guinn (reading that one now)
"Christmas:An Annual Treasury" (not one of my favorites though)

I have more but they are in the kids room and they are sleeping right now.

I hope this helps.

I love that show! I've only seen season one on Netflix, since I can only watch it late at night or early in the morning, with no kids around. I missed the marathon for that reason. Season one was pretty good, though.

It was one of those show like Coach I just happened upon it, and now I like it. It really has a god story line.

It is practically a blizzard outside. I am happy to see a little bit of snow, but I wish it was here for Christmas Eve/Christmas...not after!

Good night, everyone!!! May you all sleep well and have sweet dreams.

Evening all!
Man are we getting snow. Looks like a foot has dropped so far. It just keeps on coming! I don't mind it. I cant seem to shake this headache! I have had it since a little after lunch. Maybe this candy cane tea will help! Hope everyone isn't too blue after Christmas. It FLEW by. Well off I go to watch some movies! Have a great evening everyone!

 

[caninemom3]

back to work on Wednesday- doctor appointment/surgery tomorrow. Hope to find out more. And I really hope they use a lot of anesthesia!!!

CM3, thinking of you with your appointment on Friday.

I just started a thread in Christmas Together called Prayer Requests for those who need some extra thoughts & prayers. Not sure if this has been done before, or not. Maybe this way we can also keep better track of what's going on in each other's lives for when we fall behind in the countdown. I know I feel really bad when I missed some posts, or something important that one us needed extra prayers for.

Not sure I did that the right way, not the most computer literate, if not someone help me out :wink:

Anyways, off to take Harlowe on a car ride to look at the last of the Christmas lights. Hope you all have a nice evening!!

I love the prayer request thread Snowflake !!! (((Hugs)))) to you !! St. Padre Pio will be with you xo

I'm baaaaack.

Christmas recap: Christmas was great (bus ride to Tampa sucked but whatever) and everyone LOVED their CDs! YAY!! We had an early birthday celebration for moi (my b-day is tomorrow! January 3rd!) Christmas night.

The week between Christmas and New Year's my supervisor was nice enough to let us leave an hour early and on Friday, I got to leave at 3! I was so happy!

On New Year's Eve I cleaned and cleaned and CLEANED! Took down my Christmas cards and decorations. Put away my tree. Took some wet paper towels and cleaned counters and tables and shelves. Cleaned the inside of the toilet and tub. Cleaned the kitchen floor (it needed it!) and refridgerator (still trying to figure out how those stains got there!). Whew! I just like the idea of ushering in a New Year with a clean apartment, ya know?

Anyway, yesterday (New Year's Day) I cleaned some more, organized the jewelry box my sister gave me for Christmas and went to the mall. I ended up buying a small calendar for work, some books, and earring backers that were on sale. Also went to VS but that was because they always have great sales.

Today I've just been uber lazy but I DID watch the Tournament of Roses Parade. (Did anyone else catch the AWESOME Donate Life float?? cheesy) I also worked out a bit to my Jillian Michaels 30-Day Shred DVD. Her 30 days = 90 days for me HA!

Tomorrow is my b-day and I plan on using a casual day pass b/c A.) It's my b-day and I do NOT want to dress up and B.) We're getting a wicked cold front and I'd much rather being wearing comfy pants and boots!!


Alright, I think I'm done. How is everyone else?

Hi Kimothy !! We missed you ! Glad you had a really wonderful Christmas but it's good to see you back ! xo

Made.. already I am looking forward to July and our late night comments about QVC,,,,,

YABBA!

I am looking forward to it too Binger and Made, even though I am not quite as witty as you guys ! xo

Good night everyone...gonna try and get some sleep...praying i get called for a sub job in the am....sweet dreams to you all

 

[Seawaters]

Which store???

I ran to the store this afternoon and while I was there I found one of those small plastic trees that plug into the usb port on your computer. It was marked down to a dollar so I got it to leave out all year. I figured it will help on those dark nights when I'm missing the beauty of Christmas lights.

Going to bed....

Send some snow this way, Undrtakr!

Thank you, thank you!!!
