Christmas Countdown - 2012

xmas365 · Dec 10, 2012

Good evening,

Watching Home Alone, but the stupid Zales commercials are killing me with that annoying song. Work kicked my butt today, so much needed to get down. My wife took tomorrow off for our Christmas shopping, so I am looking forward to our date day.

Good night everyone.

Is it just me, or do the Hallmark movies share a lot of their actors and actresses?! Not that I mind or anything, but I noticed that every time I watch a new Christmas movie

A good hard frost here but no snow

. Still, making things a bit more festive. I have a twelve hour shift ahead which I'm not looking forward to but no matter, has to be done. Have a great day everyone.

CHRISTMAS SEASON DAY #29

Good Morning.

Well, four weeks down in Christmas Season 2012.
Hard to believe, isn't it.

But no harder to believe than this!:
Days to Christmas Day: 14 (TWO WEEKS from TODAY!)
(It's a comin' like a freight train, Folks!)

Very pleasant, albeit a bit damp, yesterday.
We are starting off at 61 degrees here this morning but tomorrow promises to be noticeably colder.
No matter.
It's December after all, and Christmas is coming!

You have a Totally Terrific Two-Weeks-To-Go Tuesday, Friends!

Hello Christmas family!

Hope you all had a great day!

Holiday, I'm so sorry to hear about your neighbor.
It sounds like you've been having a lot of Christmas fun with the baking! If you need to get rid of some of those cookies, I can give you my address

So, what Christmas programs are you all watching tonight? I am dvr'ing the Michael Buble special not sure what I'll actually watch though...

Anyways, hope you all have a merry and festive night! XO

I brought a tray of cookies to work today & I got "yelled" at! :lol: Every time I bring something in the guys tell me to order them a size bigger uniform. Ha ha ha!!
I missed the Michael Buble Special. Darn! I had Lifetime on!

We had some snow overnight! Not enough to stick to the ground, but the rooftops are white!!! It was snowing for our walk this morning. SO PRETTY!!!!

Good Morning, I hope everyone is doing alot better since we got the dreaded Monday out of of here... This past weekend, I started to put up my outside Christmas lights on Saturday, the day started out overcast and then it started to have a little drizzle and a fog started to roll in. With this type of weather, did that deter me from my task at hand?

No way; I was a busy bee out there running all my electrical cords, timers and such and by the Sunday evening, I had 80% of the lights up. But the weather had finally gotten the best of me, with the constant drizzle and fog for 3 continuous days, I felt like a drowned rat...So, I finally gave up and now hopefully today/ this evening, I can finish putting the lights up on the roof without worrying of falling off (pulling a Clark Griswold).

I stopped by an Ace Hardware yesterday and they had some all these decorations there still in stock, like Blowmold Christmas outdoor decorations and such, I couldn't help myself and I bought a couple more for the front yard! Man my wife doesn't miss a thing, it took her all about 2.5 seconds of looking outside and here is a re-cap of the conversation;

"Where did that come from?"... "What"...."That"... "Ummm that"..."Yes that, it wasn't here last year!"...."Are you sure?"..."Yes!"....I don't know, ummm, can't remember?"..."Uh-huh!!!" (as the door was closing)! lol...

I love it! Its beggining to look alot like Christmas.....

Good morning, MMC!

Last night before bed I noticed a pretty big hard lump on my rib. I don't know what it could be, but it feels bony. The spot where the lump is was exactly where I felt all of the pain from coughing and was where my ribs were hurting. I of course looked it up online and the results just creeped me out saying things like bone cancer. This morning I am a little sore there. I am hoping it just has something to do with all of the strong coughing that I did. I suppose if it doesn't go away by next week that I will go to my doctor and they will probably send me for an x-ray. Keep me in your thoughts/prayers that it goes away on its own!

Aside from that, I am having a good morning. I am all done with everything for school. The only thing that I have to do is get ready for finals! It is cold and rainy out so I don't feel like going to class, but I guess I will be a good little student and go!!

Have a great day!

Keep tabs on it and document how it feels each day. Rate the pain on a scale of 1 to 10 each time you examine it. That way you can give your dr. more detailed info. It helps them a lot.

No, am not a licensed physician but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.

Made - How are you and your family feeling ??

I think we are all starting to feel better. My cough seems to be better with the new antibotic.
