Christmas Countdown - 2012

[Bradmac]

Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

My mom called this morning. She has houseguests this week. They're a couple that lived near us when we lived in Fayetteville, NC. All the army families tended to gether up in the same house areas, so I grew up with these folks and their kids. Anyway, the wife is German, and is offering to cook us authentic German schnitzel tonight. They've already gone to the local base commissary to pickup the ingredients. I can't wait!

I finally got my haircut today, too!!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Hey everyone!

I am just waiting for my parents to get home from the doctor appt and I am going to make them lunch. My mom was supposed to have the drainage tube and the bandage taken off today, but he only took the drainage tube out. She is not very happy because having the bandage so tight around her throat makes it even worse to eat/drink.

I ordered some speakers from Amazon a few days ago, I think they should be coming today. My speakers are great, but I've had them for a few years and I can tell that they are about to blow out. I need to wait for my brother to get home from work, though, because I don't know how to install them.

I can't believe it's almost Super Bowl weekend! I don't think we'll be doing anything big, but I am definitely going to watch. I am more interested in the commercials than anything since my team didn't make it to the Super Bowl.

Good afternoon, everyone! I just got back from Wal-Mart, snuck out of work to go Superbowl shopping. My sister is making Cincinnati Chili to eat with spaghetti noodles, and I'm making hot crab dip. And of course there will be veggies and dip. That's why they call it the Super BOWL-you keep eating while you're watching it!

I am going to go lay down on the couch, put my feet up, and do some reading for my Meteorology class. I do not feel very well at all! Ever since I got into bed last night, my stomach has been bothering me. I couldn't even fall asleep because it was growling and making crazy noises constantly, lol. I didn't eat much yesterday with all of the hecticness so I thought that was the problem. I had hot chocolate, a breakfast bar, chicken noodle soup, and a can of coke today and I already feel so full and queasy. Hopefully I'm not coming down with something.

For some good news...almost Friday! Anyone have fun weekend plans - Super Bowl stuff included!?

If you told me right now that it was March - based on the weather, I would have to believe you!

We are still waiting too. It has been a mild, wet "winter" here. We've only had 2 school snow days. A local paper had an article talking about how confused our local wildlife are. Bears, deer, & turkeys have been much more active than normal. A lot of folks keep bird feeders up in the winter for the birds that stay. This year, the bears are getting into them which is very usual for winter..

I found our snow, it seems someone made a mistake when shipping it here and it instead went to Japan

Nova Scotia's Shubenacadie Sam predicts early spring.
Pennsylvania's Punxsutawney Phil predicts 6 more weeks of winter.
Ontario's Wiarton Willie predicts an early spring.
2 out of 3 wins, early spring this year.
(not that we had much of a winter yet)

Maybe we should have asked them when winter is going to start instead.

Errands are finally done, everyone should be home soon. Another book came in today, "Why Does Santa Wear Red?" More curiosities and facts about Christmas, I can't wait to dive into that one. Not much more planned for today.

Enjoy the day!

I hope your stomach is back on its feet soon.

We usually do something anti-Super Bowl---watch old comedies with football scenes in them (e.g., "Horse Feathers," "Hold That Line"), or DVDs of Red Sox games. I also like to catch the half-time show on the Puppy Bowl.

I'm just sayin'....

It's getting pretty crazy!!!! Traffic here in my town has picked up and there have been a lot of small Jets coming into the airport near me. I feel sorry for the fans coming in tomorrow though because it looks like rain all day Saturday.

There was a snake out in the woods today - a foot and half long Eastern garter. The other day I thought I saw a robin - the animals think it is spring already.
