Hope Y♥U have a GREAT day!

Good Morning, Solice!!
Love the red boots! =]
Have fun @ IKEA! I love that store.
Hope you are well, my friend. I've missed you!! xo

Good Pinesday morning everyone!
Carl has outdone himself with decorations! Wreaths, turkeys, leaves, pumpkins and more! On the big screen he has some Halloween movies playing too. Wow! Oh yes I had one heck of a weekend. Listen to this. Saturday we went down to Windsor. Sunday we drove to Kingsville for my nieces baptism. Well. The van started shaking and sounded like a jackhammer on the right hand side. We had to call in work for monday because we needed to get the van fixed before we went back to London. So I drove my Dads girlfriends car. On the way over to my sisters I ran over and parked on a bee nest. Yes. I did that. After coming out of my sisters house to go home there were a lot of bees around and on the car. I had to do a mad dash in the other door. Then the next day my brother in laws father fixed the van for FREE, yes free. I wanted to give him money but he said Carma. So I will send him a nice gift card. Both struts went and broke in a way he has never seen. Oh and Thursday I got rear ended, so he fixed that too. And when we came home our cat Boots had pooped on the bed. Nice topper to the weekend eh? haha. She is old and gets upset when we leave. But I better get back to work! lol. Dont worry, my week has been better! yay!

That is quite a crazy weekend! It's nice that you can laugh about it.
Hope this week continues to be much better =]
See you @ the pines later tonight- the Fall decorations sound awesome!


Good morning all hope you have a good one. It was foggy here this morning very damp, I took Snickers for a walk and the fur around her ears curled!!! Tee Hee

Aww!! Give Snickers a hug for me & Har. xo

It's only 11 and I've already napped twice and I'm bored. Sigh....

Feel better, Kimothy!! Throw in a good Christmas movie to make you smile!

Okay, I have so much to say to you so I will just message you! lol But CONGRATS on the almost-here addition! Do you know what you are having?



Thank you, snowflake! It is still so weird to have people say "congrats on your marriage"!! It really still has not sunk in yet. I told Travis yesterday that I posted back in here for the first time in months, and he asked if I mentioned that we got married. Then we just kinda looked at each other (like we do at least twice a day) and said, "Holy CRAP we are really MARRIED!!!" lol we are dorks!

Love it! It'll take some time to sink in, lol. Especially when it's something you've planned for so long, and it's finally a lovely, amazing reality =)



Thanks Solice! And I just have to say...your avatar makes me SO happy! I haven't yet watched that movie this year so I might have to do that this week/weekend. =)



Feel better soon, Jennifer! I am on day 10 of what is probably viral bronchitis and I still feel like I am coughing up a lung daily. **hugs** to you!

:notice:
 
Good Morning, MMC!!

Looking forward to a night hanging out w/ my Christmas friends =]

Thank you! There were nothing (nada) Christmas stuff at IKEA
Guess I have to wait till next month.
But I did buy something else (as always..lol..)

Hope you have a good day Merrymisteltoe! =]
 
Good Morning MMC!!!!! It's going to be a warmer day here in central Indy with a high of 70 today and tomorrow it's going to be 80. Then this weekend we drop down to high's in the low 50's. Crazy. Last year it was like 85 for our fall festival and we were all looking for ice cream and cold water. This year we are all going to be searching for hot chocolate and hand warmers. I don't have much going on today. My aunt is babysitting my sister and niece's. So I think I'm going to do some baking. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Enjoy your 'day off'! What are you baking? :P
 
Good morning, Christmas friends. It is going to be another hot one here in northern California. I think fall is out there somewhere!! Maybe it will soon make an appearance! Since I am off this week, I am trying to use my time wisely to get way, way, way ahead on lesson plans and copies. I have finished lesson plans through February 15 and plan to complete the daily agendas through that day. I only have six more weeks of agendas to do. Then I will go over tomy classroom and make the copies. I can't do any more because I don't have enough room to put the copies! So, soon I will be able to relax and enjoy Halloween, Thanksgiving, Chirstmas, and Valentine's Day without worrying about "working." Haha! Guess what I had for breakfast? A sandwich made from a homegrown tomato from the garden of a friend. It was heaven! TTYL

It turned out that I was not really in the mood for IKEA
and I come home with fever.. (again)
I can't believe it!
And I have some back pain from "&%¤%....
So I've been laying here in my bed..

I have missed you too!!!
You are like Sunshine - always makes the day brighter! ♥
 
Now you have the sweet anticipation of not only seeing her again but of spending precious holiday time with her! Lucky you!


Good Morning, MMC!!

*******TRAVEL ALERT*******

Last trip to the coast for Crown and Crew.
Closing the cottage for the winter.
A countdown volunteer is needed to prevent a deadly break in the count cadence.
Any takers?
(The 2 days are for this Saturday and Sunday.)

If nobody else claims this, I can fill-in. Although I cannot guarantee a countdown update by 7:30 am, but I hope that around 9 am could suffice!

You are doing great to get so far ahead on your plans and can enjoy the holidays!

I hope you get better soon! Looks like most of MMC is falling apart but at least we have this place for some cheering up!
 
Happy 'Pines Day everyone!

Carl sure has this place decorated beautifully for the new month. No humps about it! Halloween has taken over, but, it can't last forever. Soon enough red and green will engulf the black and orange we're accustomed to at this time of year. But, I must say the orange and black always looks magnificent with the fall foliage.

The weather is decent in Ottawa. Temperatures are currently 17c (63f) and we could reach the mid 20s (70s) this afternoon. Not bad for October! The only downfall is that rain is in the forecast for tonight and tomorrow, which of course will be followed by temperatures dipping into the lower 50s and even upper 40s as a high.

I may have done something I shouldn't have today. My team is heading to Boston this weekend for Regionals. I cannot attend as I am still recovering from my knee injury. I had hoped to be healed by this time, but it just isn't happening. Anyway, we were also invited for the Division II championships in Sarasota, Florida about a month ago. The tournament is about 15 minutes from the USA championships that will be happening at the same time (October 24-28th). Since I have played in a couple weeks, I feel that I owe it to my team to be ready for the next tournament. We will be missing a bunch of our players because they cannot make it down due to school/work/family, etc. But, I think it's necessary for me to go... even if I'm not financially stable. Plus, I've never been Florida! Anyway, I found a round trip flight for $330 Canadian and I'm all prepared to fly down in three weeks. It should be real exciting... a beach house, on the Gulf of Mexico... As long as there are no hurricanes, it should be beautiful! I just thought I should share that with you all.

Well, I should be getting back to work. There's a bit to do here and it's my mail day. I should get on this! Have a great Wednesday, everyone! We're sneaking up on that 40 day to the Christmas Season mark. It's so close!
 
Happy Wednesday, Everyone! Well, as nice and cool as the weather was yesterday, today we are up to 76 degrees, and it's so humid it feels like you're walking through water. There was such heavy fog in our area this morning that our patients were actually running late because they couldn't see to drive in it. It seems to have cleared off for now, and hopefully it will rain in a little while and then cool off again.
 
Hi everyone, thanks for all of your well wishes! I am still feeling pretty crappy to be honest, but hopefully I start feeling better this weekend. I have a really awful cold that came out of nowhere. Usually I take Zinc at the first sign of my cold and they go away pretty quickly. I have been taking Zinc, vitamins, resting, staying hydrated, etc and I am just not feeling any better. I took some Nyquil last night and it did absolutely nothing for me. I guess there is nothing else that I can do but to ride it out!

I am getting more and more impatient for the holiday season. I cannot wait to start my shopping and getting into the spirit. I am ready to start watching movies, listening to constant carols, and seeing the decorations out and about. I find that I am typically always in a good mood November-December!

This week, I actually plan on writing up a Thanksgiving menu. My mom and I usually make a lot, so we need to do lots of planning for what we need to buy. It helps to start buying whatever we can when we have the chance so we don't have to shop for it all at once close to Thanksgiving and break bank. Shopping for Thanksgiving/Christmas food is expensive!

The good news is that I'm hungry - so I am going to go make myself some lunch and rest in front of the TV. Getting no sleep last night isn't helping me feel any less drained today!!

Have a good one!
 
I just returned from shopping, and it was so hot I could not even finish my lunch. UGH! I also needed a pain pill and deliberately left them at home, so I really was not feeling great. I took some meds just a few minutes ago, so they should kick in soon. For some reason, the posts today have been so much fun to read. It is good to see vsuclaribnl back. Sorry to hear about the job. I remember when you told us about Hallmark and really thought Kohls would be a great fit for you. Let us know how that progresses. The friend I took to Chico with me today told me about the clerk at a local office supply store who developed cancer nine months ago. Last week, her boss told her he was going to cancel her insurance because it was too expensive. He came in several days later and told her he was letting her go. BUT he wanted her to work for a while until he decided what he was going to do. I told my friend to tell the clerk to get an attorney at fast as possible. I also told her that she should have received her severance pay immediately. What a creep that employer is!!! I think I overspent at the scrapbooking store. Let's put it this way: I spent less than $300. But the supplies I got are just so beautiful! I got lots of Halloween stuff and quite a bit of Christmas stuff, too. I can hardly wait to get started! TTYL

hope you feel better quickly, being in pain sucks.

You are so right with your advice, no employer should be allowed to treat employees that way!

I did not know overspending on scrapbooking was possible, learn something new every day! LOL
 
Wednesday hello, on a gray, foggy, wet, chilly, dreary day ... but that's just outdoors. Monday (Columbus Day) wasn't scheduled as a holiday at my office, but they're going to close anyway ... Yay!

I took some Nyquil last night and it did absolutely nothing for me. I guess there is nothing else that I can do but to ride it out!


Did you take the gelcaps, or the liquid? The liquid version is 10% alcohol and always helps me to sleep!

Feed that cold! Appetite is a good sign.
