Christmas Countdown - 2012

[xmastidings]

Here is a picture of one of the special ornaments that only Hallmark members can get this year........

It is called Mrs. Claus Cupboard and it is SO DETAILED .......It just sings CHRISTMAS !!

That is really neat looking, Thank you for sharing this.... . I will have to check that out when it becomes avialable (but, I would have to be a special member first, would this be correct in my understanding?).

It looks like they're about to pull the plug on the Merry Server, so I'll see all of you again tomorrow.

Have a great evening, my friends! cheesy

Or did I misunderstand? I thought it meant noon today till 6am on Friday?

Good evening, Christmas family !!

I am sitting here winding down after work and guess what !!!

WISH IS RIGHT BESIDE ME !!!!! He is doing very well and I am so happy I can't tell you.......If I could have one gift in the world for the rest of my life it is this moment and knowing that Wish is doing just fine.......

Hermione is also doing well after her "getting fixed" surgery. At first she was having a lot of pain.......The vet did not send home any pain medication........I think he figures dogs dont have pain from being fixed but I KNOW THEY DO !! Poor sweet girl.......I found some pain medication in he cupboard and tailored it to her weight and she has been much more comfortable......

Here is a picture of one of the special ornaments that only Hallmark members can get this year........

It is called Mrs. Claus Cupboard and it is SO DETAILED .......It just sings CHRISTMAS !!

I hope all are well........I am quite exhausted...A lot of it is stress I know but I am praying that perhaps with the medication Wish will have quite a while though the prognosis is only a few months.....

AWESOME news about Wish!!!!!! You hold that little sweetie tight, and give him special hugs for me & Har!! So glad Hermione is home & that she is doing well. xoxo

Good Morning MMC!!!!!!! It's going to be really hot here in Central Indy today with a high of 102. I don't have to babysit this morning but I'm getting ready to head to southern Indiana here in a couple of hours for a funeral. We haven't seen Ted in years but if it wasn't for him convincing my grandpa to move to Indiana in the early 60's I might be Sugar's next door neighbor right now. Then I have to head home and pick up my niece's to stay overnight because my sister finally has surgery tomorrow!!!!! So hopefully things can get back to normal here soon. I hope everyone has a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry for your loss, Made. Have a safe trip today.

Good Morning, MMC~

Just wanted to pop in & say hello before the site shuts down for maintenance.

Thinking of you all!

**Special hugs going out to Cherylle & Louanne :smile:**
You two are pretty phenomenal!!

Happy Birthday to my baby girl, Har! I let her open one little present this morning, a little treat for her Kong. She had fun w/ that. I sang Happy Birthday to her, and she listened so intently, cocking her head back & forth- it was absolutely precious!! I thought I had doggie b-day wrapping paper, couldn't find that so I used some Scooby Doo Christmas wrap. Even cuter, not that she really cares, she just loves ripping it open!!



Anyways, hope you all have a lovely Thursday! Take care, friends!

Ok, I obviously misunderstood about the maintenance downtime.

In other news, Happy Birthday to Harlowe! :nice:

I have been wanting that DVD! I have done a little search for it but I want the original one with the nostalgic Christmas music on it. I haven't found it yet but haven't looked for it real well either. I did record it onto VHS several years back but want the DVD. I gotta get searching! Thanks for the reminder!

From the little bit I watched/listened to, the music was pretty nostalgic, IMO. I got it on Amazon, & there were about four choices. I reviewed them, going with the one with the best reviews. Good luch in your search. I think this one is "Happy Holiday Hearth" or some such title.

It's supposed to be 100 degrees here Friday & Saturday. It's been in the high-90's all week, with DD in an outdoor VBS. We need rain badly, and there's none in sight until July 4th, & only 20 percent then. Praying for rain!

Good evening!
What a day... Im exhausted.
We took all the children + my nephew to the city today.
Market place/farmers market, amusement park, lots of fun.
And we ate at Mc Donalds. Ordered 9 menus! What a job! Hahaha...
I took a lot of pictures! So much food and goodies.

It's good to be home again.
And all agreed it was a fine day! =]

Hope everyone is doing fine and having a GREAT Thursday!

Good Afternoon MMC!

wow this working thing is sure tiring! Getting used to being on my feet so long is making my body really mad at me.
But, learning quickly and enjoying the challenge...except the dish washing part.
Hope everyone here is well. I will get time on Saturday to get caught up with all the news here.

Have a great day!

Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

I have a headache. I've had it for a couple days now. Neither Tylenol nor Aleve can...alleviate the pain. Oh well. I'll get over it.

We had burgers from Steak -n- Shake last night. It was pretty good. I had their ultimate burger, which was loaded with cheese, bacon, etc. and a fried egg on top! And I wonder why I have a headache. :wink:

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Hope your headache is gone today Bradmac! =]

 

[Solice]

Just a quick note before I lie down to rest. Dinner is in the crockpot: pork roast marinated in spiced brandy and herb, potatoes, corn, carrots, onions, and for dessert, Cajun peach cobbler. Someone will have to come up to get the Lear (Anne???) to pick up anyone who wants to be here for dinner right around 6 p.m. Tomorrow, I will pull the leftover pork for sliders with cole slaw and onions. Made and CAH, I hate to ask, but will you do the dishes? I am already beat, and it is only 9:30 in the morning! Have a great day, everyone. I will try to get on later.

Dinner sound so good!!!
Hope you have a great day Seawaters.
Take care! Thinking of you! =]

Happy Birthday to Harlowe, Snowflake22!
