Christmas Countdown - 2012

[made582]

Just crawled back into bed after wishing my mom good luck for her surgery.

I hope your mom's surgery goes well. I'll say an extra prayer for her this morning.

The one girl in my class that asks continuous questions received a 68% on her test and she started cheering - she legitimately thought it was a good test score. When someone reminded her that it was a D, she stated that there had to be some mistake because she knows more than anyone in our class - lol!

I'm speechless! No..... um.... I am laughing now!!!!!!!!! Wow!

A legend in her own mind! cheesy

That is right!!!

Not a good day today at all. I was in the MRI room for about three hours, almost all of it with a narrow vertical bar against my sternum. The biopsy was painful even after the first shot of numbing medicine, so I had to have another shot. My shoulders hurt like the Dickens because you cannot MOVE at all except to breathe. I was crying at the end because of the sternum pressure. I will find out the results on Thursday.

I am so sorry sweetie! I think about you all the time. I am still praying for you!

Joining in the wish for sweet dreams...peace to all!

Good to see you on here!!!

I am off to bed. I am going to get up early tomorrow morning and wish my mom good luck with the surgery. I think her surgery is at 8 AM, so at least I'll know how she is relatively soon - hopefully by afternoon.

Thank you all for thinking of her and keeping her in your prayers.

Still praying!

One of the things that kept me hanging by a thread was when I thought of what I believe Jesus suffered on the cross. I kept telling myself that my pain was NOTHING compared to that!!!

Wow! That brought a tear to my eyes. Very powerful message!

Did not sleep to good last night think it must have been 4 befour i fell over. this morning my thoat is burning out of me and think one side of my thoat is swollen as it is hard to swallow and am talking like a man lol

I hope you get well soon!

good a.m. my mc family! sorry i've not been on here much. daughter has had piles of homework & it's funny, i become her bestie & she needs me to help w/ all of it, projects, papers, definitions, etc.
i'm so tired from all that i didn't have the strength for anything else.

Get some rest when you can!

Good morning! Hope this find you well rested and ready to party tonight at the Pines!!

You party animal!!! :yahoo:

I had some coffee, and watched part of Rear Window while eating breakfast. Gotta love Jimmy Stewart.

Jimmy is the best!!!

Good Morning, my Peak-of-the-Week Friends.

Ah, yes!
Once again we climb to the upper deck at the Shispering Pines and take in that beautiful view to the weekend whille enjoying one of Carl's stupendous Fired Twinkies, washed down by the sweetest iced tea this side of heaven.

And while that is going on, so is this:
Days to the Season: 286
Days to Christmas Day: 328
The day after tomorrow, guys - SINGLE DIGITS to the 1/4 Season Milestone!

Warmer yet, where we have started this fine Hump Day at 51 degrees under clear skies with the promise of 70 today and sunny weather with only a modest chance of rain right on through to the weekend.
Can't get any better forecast than that to kick off February!

Have a Wonderful Wednesday and a Practically Perfect Pines Day, Everyone!

Good Morning MMC!!!!!! It's not going to be quite as warm today but it's still going to be 54 degrees. Not bad for February 1st. I've been sitting here watching espn the last couple of days and all they are talking about is Peyton. You would think thats the only reason they are broadcasting from downtown. I guess I should be happy that they are not spending all day talking about how great Brady is. Well I off to do something. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Christmas-A-Holic]

I think MMC is falling apart! Everyone is getting hurt or sick. I have been falling apart too! =)

Late yesterday afternoon my stomach was hurting so bad that I was doubled over. When stuff like that happens I say, "It must have been something I ate". It's a joke because I am a health fanatic about eating. I should just go back to processed foods and junk! Ha ha! The healthy stuff is killing me!!!!!! Ahhhhhh! I really have no idea what was going on but I feel better today.

I am ready for The Pines!!! Double up the Fired Twinkies for me! The healthy stuff is making me sick. :lol:

Hey Crown, I am looking forward to Carl's new word this week!

I bet your town is going crazy right now! I thought all the coverage was a lot of fun when the Super Bowl was here. About this time it really went wild! Of course the freaky ice storm didn't help much. We never had a storm like that before. Jerry Jones was not a happy guy at all! This year would have been perfect for it since we are having spring like weather.

I think your right is it possibel to smite someone over the airways ????
Any way hope you ok today. over there there is a 24 hour bug going round could it have reached your neck of the woods?????

It really was a lot of pressure!!! Chardonnay helps, but I won't be doing that too long. My chest and right boob HURT!!! Sorry for whining! I know it WILL get better!

To remark on the kinds of things you're going through is NOT whining. Repeat: NOT whining. I had a short taste of what you went through in December 2010 (face down on a table with holes for the breasts to hang through, while they biopsied a spot and put in a tiny clip for future reference). I can't imagine putting up with it for three hours.

Unbelievably, it was slow at the office yesterday. Makes me wonder if it's building up to another deluge ... In the meantime, I'm enjoying the breather! And it's Pinesday!

I am ready for The Pines!!! Double up the Fired Twinkies for me! The healthy stuff is making me sick. :lol:

Hey Crown, I am looking forward to Carl's new word this week!

Looking forward to whatever surprises are in store tonight!

The biopsy was painful even after the first shot of numbing medicine, so I had to have another shot. My shoulders hurt like the Dickens because you cannot MOVE at all except to breathe. I was crying at the end because of the sternum pressure. I will find out the results on Thursday.

I am sorry! that sounds awful...I have issues with Mri's in general,let alone anything painful. I will pray non stop and so will my family until thursday!! God Bless!

 

[gabulldawg]

Good morning everyone! It's pines day already! this week is flying by...This morning was kind of foggy and a crisp45F on the drive to the gym before work. It is suppose to rain tonight and be very foggy in the morning so I need to leave even more early than 530am. I am very busy at work today so this may be all I can check in here...I hope everyone has an awesome hump day!

Shellie, i think you made a misprint.......don't take it like a man, you'll be whiney, crabby, & ill. Instead take it like a woman!!!!!lol, no offense to you guys!! I hope you get well & take care of yourself!!!that's an order.lol

Bless your heart, Cherylle, I'm so sorry the testing hurt you. :sad:

I'm praying for good results, though!!

Must be some sort of Pines flu and injury bug going around, it's gotta be the wild times at the Pines to blame for all of this. cheesy

Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

We had a hectic evening yesterday with all the running around we had to do. But it ended with Nancy bringing home some sub sandwiches from Larry's Giant Subs! They are GIANT, too! It's one of those sub shops that slices the ham and the roast in front of you, and they really fill the sandwich with meat. As a guy, I hate to say this...but it might've even been a little too much meat?! I know, I know, but it was slap full of meat! I think I might go back and try a roast beef next time. (wink, wink!)

I hope y'all have a great Pinesday! cheesy

Good morning and Happy February!

Just resting right now, I have got a few things to do around the house, my wife is having an Open House for her Mary Kay side business on Friday. Watching another 80's classic, the original Griswold flick National Lampoon's Vacation. I have started eating like normal again, and I am hungry now so I must find something to eat.


Have a great Pines day!

NO CANCER!!!!!

My mom's surgery just finished up, all went well. The surgery went quicker than anticipated. She has to stay until the early evening so they can monitor her, but then she can come home!

I am so thankful for all of your good thoughts and prayers for her because they got answered. Now hopefully this is the last time I had to complain to you guys, because I am sure you're all sick of hearing it!!

I'll be bringing daiquiris for all to the Pines!
