Christmas Countdown - 2013

Good Evening

 

[Holiday]

Good afternoon, Christmas family!

We ended up getting over 4 inches of snow this morning - pretty, but messy out! The gas company delivered propane today and said that the main highway is in very bad shape so I stayed home. I am going to enjoy the time off!

Be safe and Merry!

Enjoy every minute!!!!!! Hope everyone stays safe, but how fun! Last year we had a lot of snow on Dec. 26th - was the greatest day spent with neighbors. This year is cold & sunny! Ah well... I'm not at work! lol

we woke to snow this morning, had about a half hour of sunshine and now back to more snow. I am glad we have not place to go anymore today! Just relaxing and enjoying a quiet evening.

Enjoy your time with the family HMG!!!!!!


That's the right attitude to have!!!! It's never to early to start planning!!!

Thanks Made!
I did good today. Target had half off of Christmas merchandise, I stocked up on a few things. Hallmark had 40% off, I picked up beautiful Thomas Kinkade cards and a couple of ornaments for myself, including this one. It made me think about you!

Good afternoon to all!

I hope that everyone's Christmas was MERRY and bright. ;]

I woke up on Tuesday morning feeling ill so I basically spent two days in bed eating smelly garlic and drinking lots of tea. I haven't had sore throat or running nose for years and now I got it on Holiday. Yuck. :/ Anyway, I managed to chat with my mum on Skype last night for 3 hours!!! (It probably was the longest chat we have ever had on Skype. ^^ )

I am now looking forward to going home for New Years. :]

Enjoy the rest of the holiday everyone! (I see that some of you have already started thinking about next year's Christmas or card exchange. Oh, I wish I could be that organized!)

Best wishes from cloudy and windy Scotland!

Sending get well wishes your way!

I am happy to say that I do not have the post Christmas blues! Hopefully it will not creep up on me either!

Not here to knock anyone who suffers from it because I know all too well how it feels. Been there, done that! Just hang in there! We are all here to keep you happy and full of Christmas spirit year round!!!

Remember.... Only 364 days until Christmas!!!

I hope to get online later today to get caught up, well, at least a little bit. I just HAVE to share about our Christmas, especially our kitchen-less dinner. TTYL

 

[HomemakinGirl]

sounds like you have a nice week ahead of you. Good to be organized for next year, I am going to wait until after new years to start mine, just want to be lazy now.

I just wanted to take advantage of the sales before everything is gone. I really feel like being lazy right now too!

 

[HomemakinGirl]

Awesome attitude!!!!! :smile:

Thank you :-D

Hope you're all having a great day so far! DH and I are just trying to clean up from the last two days and trying to find a place for all these new gifts. The kids are loving playing with their things!

I'll be back later to get caught up!

My girls have moved most of their gifts in to their rooms. No toys here but there are a lot of clothes to put away. They are definitely going to have to clean their closets out to fit the new stuff in. The rest of my house is a mess, I have to tackle that tonight!

The Santa I got at JoAnn fabrics last weekend.

Thanks again for this wonderful thread and countdown. I discovered it last year right after christmas. I entered the dates into my iPhone calendar. Every month I got a little surprise. I would take a screen shot and text the pic to our sons who are in college. It sure helped time go by quicker

Hi Slim, it's good to see you here :-D

We went for a little drive by the river a little bit ago after dropping daughter off at work

Found a group clearing the ice for a hockey game

Beautiful pictures!

Well we had a great Christmas!:-D Now it's back to work.:sad:

We had the best Christmas yesterday. My husband had to work, so Mom and I spent the afternoon at my sister's house. Boy did she have a good dinner! Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and gravy, sauerkraut with sausage, cranberries, corn pudding, mac and cheese, hot rolls, and green beans. After that there were homemade streusels and cinnamon rolls. Then we goofed around for awhile until Mom got tired and I took her home. It was only 6:00 by then, so I took my dog and myself over to Mom's house, and we sat around eating turkey sandwiches and watching the dog play with his new toys. I went home around 8:00, and found out that A Christmas Carol was on. My favorite version too! Well, they kept playing it, and I lost track of time and finally went to bed at 2:00am.

I am so sleepy right now I don't know what my name is.

Maybe I'll just keep staring at this computer screen until 3, when I can go home and have a nap. The charts will just have to stack up today.

I am glad you both had a wonderful Christmas!
