Christmas Countdown - 2012

[Bradmac]

did some of that myself earlier this month.

Been called a couple of times myself but never served.
The plaintiff attorneys alway strike me whenever they hear I'm an insurance adjuster!

Like Crown, I've been called several times, but, until recently, my family was so involved in local law enforcement and politics that I was normally struck, too. My mom was the Clerk of the Superior Court, and my uncle was the sheriff since the late 80's. They both recently retired, so now all bets are off!

Jury duty,,, blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

yabba!~

Ditto!

Most of the time I would get a call at the office to disregard any summons I may have received. Once, they forgot to call and I showed up! Surprisingly I was chosen for two civil (dry as toast) cases. None of the good stuff for me! I guess I shouldn't complain. I was to marry two weeks later; sure wouldn't have wanted to have gotten on a drawn out case involving sequester!

Since I retired, I’ve been sort of holding my breath, especially for federal district court where I would have to travel to Birmingham, Alabama.

Good morning everyone,

Woke up to a much too warm 42 degrees. Thunderstorms are forecast tonight then a couple of days of cooler weather. Saturday's high should be a more comfortable 35 but no snow.

Ladies at work have planned a happy Thursday lunch with pinto beans, onions, and cornbread. Can't wait, wish they would do this every week. Should be an interesting afternoon...

My Mom's PET scan is today. We should get results early next week. I pray the cancer has not come back.

Take care all.

Good afternoon! Hope everyone is having a good day so far! I am warming up leftovers for lunch - cheese pizza and baked spaghetti!

Nothing new going on here and nothing exciting going on today either. I am just going to get caught up on here today. DH is at work, so the kids are at daycare.

Alright, I will check back in a little later. :razz:

 

[sugar142286]

Oh...it's 48 and sunny here right now. It feels awesome out!

 

[sugar142286]

AHh just taking a break!! I am feeling sentimental today. I am looking forward to the rest of the year and getting ready for baseball season,football season,Fall,then of course the holidays. I talked to my friend who we are getting our new dog from and she should be ready by sat. She is 5 weeks old this coming friday and she is a brown doxie...just like my old "pookie" who died while I was deployed last year...I love daushaunds...they are the sweetest loyal dogs. I am going to let Brandi pick the name out...this is going to be very interesting to see how we can pottie train the dog...I hope we are better at training jordan than we were with snowball it took almost 9 months to train him!!!lol have a good day everyone!

I am so happy for you guys! That is awesome you will be getting your puppy on Saturday! Post pics as soon as you can!

As for the potty training, as you know, it's a person/dog basis. It was so easy for my little girl EA and then got very sick with the flu and didn't want to do it. 6 months later, she isn't doing it. She will be 2 1/2 next month. The doctor told me there is still nothing to worry about it. (Lol...she isn't the one that has to worry about it though!) Anyway, good luck with it! Hopefully it will go well for you. We had better luck with Ella (my golden) then we have with my daughter.

 

[sugar142286]

maybe You could pray for that 16-year-old girl, that she will recover and one day overcome what those boys have done to her...I wish they would go to jail for the rest of their lives....but with German laws....those boys might go to juveline jail for 2 years and that s that then......so mad

Saying a prayer right now. This poor girl! Hope she will be able to recover well and these boys will pay for what they did!

Good afternoon, everyone!

It's 'Pines Day! I was feeling real well last night until about 8:30. My throat began to ache. Then, I woke up with a head ache and running nose. So far, I've already drank more than three litres (16 oz each) of water. I am a firm believer in drinking as much as possible and flushing it out of my system. My throat feels better. Hopefully the rest of my body can respond, too.

The weather is a warm 4C! That's nearly 40F! Spring is less than a month away and this is a good sign! I'm excited to take my bike out of my friend's basement and ride it to work everyday. It will certainly save me about $90 per month as I wouldn't have to purchase a bus pass!

Not much happening today. Kim isn't feeling well either. She was supposed to have pilates tonight, but her body may not let her go. Tonight is an off-night for me. The gym was fun yesterday. The weights keep getting heavier and my back feels no pain. No complaints!

Well, I hope everyone enjoys the 'Pines! It's a beautiful Wednesday. It is all downhill from here until the weekend. Nothing wrong with that! And, of course, our next milestone is coming up next week! So much excitement, and it is only nearing the end of February!

Hope you both feel better soon!

 

[sugar142286]

Wishing everyone a good Wednesday. My cold is improving (except for some fogginess and fatigue), and I'll be back on the job tomorrow. I had some news on the estate matter this morning that may be good news ... time will tell.

Glad to hear it!

 

[sugar142286]

HELP!!!! My wife took over the TV, she is watching Teen Mom 2, I cannot stand this show.

Just trying to stay out of the Chateau Bowwow! cheesy

Have a good night everyone!

I HATE that show too. Oh pleeease.

 

[sugar142286]

My Dad is doing better due to his cellulitus. It spread into his foot but he is better, so that's good.

Hope he feels better soon!

 

[sugar142286]

Good morning all! I slept good without much interuption last night so I feel great! About to head to the gym then work.. Everyone is still asleep but me and snowball.He always gets up with me at first at least..he will go out to do his busniness then he gets a "bone" if it's cold he tends to go get back in the bed with brandi...but sometimes he just stays up with me...anyhow my company leaves today,I really enjoyed my little sis's and her hubby and kids visit...now that I have a kid everything seasms like it means more...and I also talked to Dad laast night and he sounded great. They are expecting him to leave physical therapy and the nursing home early May! So I may take a long weekend and go out west beofre our family vacation in July!! May is fast approaching as we are almost in March!!! Well I better get going...Have a great morning everyone!!

Hope your family has a safe trip back!

Glad to hear that your dad sounded chipper this am. I think that sounds like a great idea and taking a trip out to see him. I am sure he would love it!

 

[sugar142286]

I might even make an appearance...LOL!

How exciting!

I always usually get shutdown when they hear my father-in-law is a chief of police!

 

[sugar142286]

My Mom's PET scan is today. We should get results early next week. I pray the cancer has not come back.

I will be saying a prayer for her. Please keep us updated!

Good morning everyone,...

My Mom's PET scan is today. We should get results early next week. I pray the cancer has not come back.

Hoping all goes well for her and hoping its something simple

Good morning, MMC!

Woke up to a winter wonderland outside. The sun is out now and it is fast melting away. It's the calm before the storm, though - stocked up on cat food so I am all set cheesy

Have a MERRY day and stay safe!

Wait! Wait! That's MY snow! We've barely had any this year, and it's 63 degrees out today.

Good midday all! I am about to pig out on a Hoagie sandwich with turkey and swiss cheese...every month we have a "luncheon" where we as dept pick which restaurant we want and we picked firehouse subs and they sent 25 subs over and chips. Next month we are picking Zaxby's I think...now that place can give me a coranary....

Is your workplace hiring? I'd sure like to work there!

Like Crown, I've been called several times, but, until recently, my family was so involved in local law enforcement and politics that I was normally struck, too. My mom was the Clerk of the Superior Court, and my uncle was the sheriff since the late 80's. They both recently retired, so now all bets are off!

I was on a jury once when I had just turned 21. It was a murder trial, and I couldn't believe how disorganized it seemed. Neither of the lawyers seemed ready with their case, and the judge was the only one who seemed to know what was going on. I was very surprised.
