Christmas Countdown - 2012

[Christmasstar]

I've returned! And, on a special day!

I am excited for Crown to usher in the countdown for a milestone! Anyway, where have I been? Last Thursday, I became violently ill. It was a 24 hour flew, but it took a lot out of me. At times, I could barely move! It was mostly gone by Friday. I could go back to work then. The weekend seemed OK. I improved throughout. Now, all is well.

I wanted to post yesterday, but I was really busy with stuff at work. Packages just kept coming in! And, it was my mail duty day, so I was running around throughout. I will catch myself up with much of the events here throughout the day. I just thought I should stop in quickly and say hello. Can't wait for the count! We're flying through 2012!

glad you are feeling better. I hate getting sick, avoid it as much as I can!

Made,

I thought I was watching Days of Thunder....

"I want you to go back out on the track and hit the jet dryer!"

Now that was a crazy race. It had everything. Rain, Fire, Forklifts, Tide, Sealer, and Leaf Blowers. 2nd place is a bonus. I was just happy Junior finished.

I didn't watch much of the race, but I did see the jet dryer incident. That was crazy! Congrats to Matt Kenseth for the win, and congrats to you Made for Junior's second place.

Hello friends...I have been away from the site for a bit. As some of you may know, I joined a dating site about a month ago. I have had lots of dates and met some very nice ladies. But I have not had potential love connection..until this past weekend. I had a date with a lovely woman about 40 miles from me. She is a nurse and we have many similar interests. She likes to dine out, cook and grill and home, travel, take weekend road trips and lots of other cool things just like I do. She also absolutely LOVES Christmas just as I do. She was so thrilled when I shared with her my love for Christmas and the fact that I'm on this site. I'm really excited about the possibilities with her.

Hope you guys are all doing well and I'm so thankful for each and everyone who post/contribute to this site. Ofen I just come on here to read and take in the wonderful spirit from this site and all of you who make it what it is. Thank you!

Bullypup, I wish you all the best in your new relationship!

Good Morning, Friends of Christmas.

Onward we march towards March.
Yes, under 2 days remain to this month.

But less than that remains until our next Milestone!
Days to the Season: 259
Days to Christmas Day: 301
That's right, Folks.
TOMORROW!
The 300-day Christmas Day Milestone.
Zoundzeenos!!

Warmer (a bit) here this morning at 44 degrees and we are bound for continued warm weather the remainder of the week, albeit with predicted rain.
Oh. well. They say we are still in a moderate drought here so that will help.

Big open house tomorrow at the 'Pines!!
The theme is "Leap Forward Through the Window".
I assume Carl is combining Leap Day with the 300-Day Window Milestone marker.
No telling what he has planned.
Regardless, you don't want to miss it!

Allrighty, then.
You have a Terrific Tuesday, Everybody!

Yay - tomorrow is a Milestone day :dance:

You have a Terrific Tuesday, too, Crown!

Good morning, MMC!

I hope this finds Everyone well!

I am in the midst of a project that needs to get done today/early tomorrow, so I will be extremely busy for the day. I shall play some Christmas music and think Christmas thoughts - Milestone day tomorrow :dance: - and the day will fly by and hopefully, my project will get completed quicker.

Have a MERRY day!!!

I am a bit worried about "Leaping Forward Through the Window"! Zoundzeenos, that might hurt! :lol:

We're expecting a messy snowstorm tomorrow night ... I might need a lift from the Learjet to get to and from the 'Pines. Anybody else?

I'll fly to come pick you up. We gotta make us you get there!

Wow 300 day mark on a Pines day and on leap day (is that right?). This is so exciting. So many specifics to celebrate it is going to be an amazing night.

Hope everyone's Monday was good. I missed the race last night which was a bummer. My girlfriend and I are going to see a movie tonight, not sure which one and I don't really care as I just want some us time.

Well hope tuesday is great. It's going to be a busy one for me but I'll be checking in.

Good Morning MMC!!!!! It's going to be another mild day here in central Indy with a high near 50. It looks like we could get some strong storms tonight though. I'm dragging this morning after staying up to watch the race last night and then the post race on speed channel. So I don't see a lot getting done today. My plan is to find some christmas craft ideas to do with my nieces. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You got it, anytime!

Good morning, Christmas friends. It is frosty on the old barn this a.m., so I have on a sweatshirt to get me through the day. I think zowzarino (zowzareno?) has already been used, but it's how I will feel when we get into the 200s for the count. I love it when we blast through each landmark! Have a great day, everyone!

off to London to see a movie at the Rainbow cinema...only $4 today. Lindsay is not getting out much these days so she will enjoy some time away.
Hard job having to take people to picnics, musems and movies, I will try to endure it all! :lol:

It's Brandi's last day before she goes back to teaching. So she is looking forward to it but crying at the same time about leaving the baby

How was Brandi's first day back?

Good morning,

Ran out and did dome errands after I dropped the boys off, went to the grocery store to pick up a few things, and I saw the coolest thing. When you walk down the frozen section, the lights in the doors get bright, and after you walk by them they get dim again, I thought it was so cool! Must be the grocer in me when I used to run a frozen food section.
I am making pot roast for dinner, the yummy smells are filling the house right now. Then I went to the Goodwill store I looked at their Christmas selection and nothing to my liking, but I found a heavy sweatshirt that will be great to wear when I work in the freezer, and I found the book "Skipping Christmas" for $0.50, so I had to grab that.

Starz Kids & Family is having a mini Christmas movie marathon today, I just watched Home Alone, and next is "I'll Be Home For Christmas," so I will be resting my foot watching Christmassy stuff for the next few hours.

Enjoy the day, off to choose my Christmas song of the day!

Good Tuesday morning, my Christmas friends!

I have avoided getting sick for weeks now while everyone around me suffered from one ailment after another, but I finally lost. When I went ot bed last night, my throat was really sore. This morning, it doesn't hurt too much, but I'm hoarse and less thatn 100%. Doggone it!!

Today is my son's guitar practice and my daughter's dance practice, so we all finally get together around 8pm every Tuesday.

I'm looking forward to my couch this evening!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy
