Christmas Countdown - 2012

[Meceka]

Meceka- Is your news talking about a possible blizzard the weekend after Thanksgiving? Ours said that the last 10 model runs have all showed a major storm but they are split on wether it will be a rain or snow event. The models they have been showing on tv have the center of the storm close to the border of Michigan and Indiana.

Accuweather is saying rain. The local forecasters I listen to only go about five days ahead. The occasional "we are keeping tabs on a storm front off to the (insert direction here) that could head our way in the coming week" phrase is thrown in once in a while. Thank you for the heads up, made! I have to get straw for the outdoor fur kids a bit sooner than I thought I would ~ just in case cheesy

Hang in there, XmasRox. It is a difficult time to be a student! Heck, it's even hard being an older person. A lot of people do not realize how many people are affected by depression--it is very real!!!

Hey guys, I'm back.

Been a very tough couple of months battling with depression, but I'm hoping to get into the Christmas spirit soon, but due to stress and anxiety regarding school and a few other things, I've been trying to take it easy, which has been difficult. Overall, this year's been a bit of a roller coaster.

At least my sister and her boyfriend are spending Christmas with us.

Solice,
How are you? Been thinking about you and your family. Take care!

Good morning! :-x

 

[Seawaters]

Such a nice, loving gesture, CM3. It's not a downer at all!

Good morning, Christmas Family

I am just getting started and am later than usual today !!

I hope all have a wonderful, Christmassy day !!

I don't mean to be a downer but I always commemorate my mother's birthday. This would have been my dear mom's 98th birthday.

Love you mom, not a moment goes by that I dont miss you xo

Happy Birthday in Heaven xoxo

All the best. Think about the things you have and be thankful for them. Keep working hard and staying positive.

Hey!
Did you know there is still one Milestone left on our chart?
I call it the "forgotten Milestone" because it falls after the start of the Season and gets overlooked.
It's the 90 percent mark to Christmas Day and it arrives in 3 days!

It seems like the other day we were celebrating the 90 percent mark to the Christmas Season. A milestone Sunday? Sounds good to me!


Seawaters: Glad to hear the change of meds has helped you feel better!

Good morning everyone,

Another day of the Christmas Season. Yesterday was enjoyable. I had some decent news involving potential employment. I will inform everyone about that on the day it happens. I'm excited for this, but it does involve a lot of studying and memorization.

My dad arrives today around 4. Just after I'm done work. The forecast looks pretty decent. He should only have a bit of rain on his nine hour drive. I'm excited to see him. It's always great to have him around. As I said, we'll be in search for a few things to do without there being any hockey on TV. College football and NFL football will probably have to fill the TV on Saturday and Sunday. Of course, we'll go a few places, too! I'm excited to visit a few places further from the apartment. New Christmas decorations to photograph!

Kim and I did not do any Christmas stuff yesterday. She didn't come home until about 7, but I had dinner ready. She wanted to watch her X-Factor, so I obliged and hung out. What else... I had a wonderful massage yesterday. As I've mentioned, my knee has been bothering me pretty bad since July. It always feels like it is coming back and then I re-injure it doing something I shouldn't be doing....

Anyway, my knee feels much better now. She worked on my hamstrings, quads, and especially my IT band. My IT band was in knots and out of place. My body really put her to work. In the end, my knee doesn't have much pain. I'm hoping everything will be cleared up by the end of the month. But, I'm not going to push it. If I have to take December off (from heavy weights), too, I will.

OK, I should return to work. I hope all is well with everyone. Have a great Thursday! The weekend is almost here! Merry Christmas!!

Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

Nutcracker practice went long last night, and I bet it will tonight...tomorrow is opening night!! She'll be the most beautiful mouse on the stage!!

Cool and rainy here today. I've been trying to clean up the pool so I can close it for the winter. I left my watch on the deck last night and found it in the rain this morning. It's still running, but I don't know for how long.

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

I'm sure she will be ~ best of luck to her and the rest of the cast! I hope your watch keeps working, too!

I think I baked the turkey a little to long!
Turkey dinner anyone?

Actually, this would be dessert, it is the cake I am entering in the competition Sunday. Everything you see is made of sugar.

Just wanted to stop in real quick and say hi. I will update you on the rest of my night/day later, but I just got back from helping with EA's Thanksgiving party at preschool, so I am going to catch a quick nap before DH has to go back to work at 4:30.

Talk to you all in a bit. Hope you all are having a Christmassy Day!

I am glad, too, Meceka. We depend on our knees so much, and it seems to be the "first to go" when we get older!

I'm glad your knee is feeling better!

That's truly amazing. And it makes me hungry, even though I already had lunch!
