Christmas Countdown - 2013

[Seawaters]

I noticed that we have some new and returning members! WELCOME!!! It is so nice to see all of you! I will write more when we get home to Northern California. When we say, "Welcome," here, we really mean it!!! And I promise to give you a proper welcome from me. I am sure the others are so excited to have you join us!

Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

We did our guitar lesson, Wal-Mart trip yesterday afternoon. While were checking out in Wal-Mart, we were surprised to see our niece and her two sons in line behind us. So, we all went out to Chick-Fil-A and had a good time.

Nancy and I are working hard, trying to plan a 70th birthday party for my mom in June. The hardest part is making sure she's not in the mountains on that weekend!

I hope y'all have a great weekend! cheesy

My wife suggested moving down south recently, I told her she could go without me because I could not handle the heat. cheesy We went to Charlotte, N.C. in July 2004. All I can remember while we were swimming is I could still feel myself sweating under water. If we were to move anywhere I would rather move more north.

Good morning and Happy Halfway!!!!

I am afraid I am starting to feel the effects of the bug, I feel lousy, but it is not enough for me to call out of work yet. My wife and JP are home today, we sent LC to preschool since he is back to normal.

I am going to go rest before work, hoping this is a passing thing.

I hate being sick. Praying you all recover quickly ((((HUGS))))

We got our first taste of ObamaCare yesterday. Medicare says mom was using too many refills on her wound pump and refused to allow any additional supplies this week. With no refills for the pump, the home health nurse had to remove the pump and mom started bleeding heavily. The nurse was forced to called an ambulance for the uncontrolled bleeding. Mom spent all day at the hospital and had to have blood transfusions. She has to go back to her surgeon today to have the wound pump put back in. The surgeon says he will attempt to reason with Medicare but is not optimistic. Wonder if Medicare will realize that an ambulance ride, emergency visit, blood transfusions, and visit with a surgeon costs more that simple refills for a wound pump.

So sorry to hear that. That's just craziness. Rules without any thought behind them.

Brad, I thought of you yesterday afternoon when a special came on about a man who started frequenting a guitar shop. He said that he has lots of guitars, LOL, It was so neat to see how much he had learned just by befriending the shop owner! He said he went from knowing nothing about guitars to now having his own band! I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it!

Good Wednesday morning all. Half way to Christmas season. Hot weather arrives today. Forecast to hit 80. :x

High school academic banquet was fun last night. Still have the athletic banquet tomorrow. With the school year about to end, we are looking forward to June 26 when leave on vacation. Once we return, I'll be ready for summer to end and fall to rush in.

I cannot imagine how scary that was. Praying for you all ((((HUGS))))

I'm sorry she had to go through all of that, it must've been very frightening.
Saying extra prayers for you guys.

Good afternoon, everyone? What are you all up to? Nothing going on here. I've just been doing some things around the house and enjoying alone time, with my coffee!

How is your day going so far. All is well here. Trying to figure out what I am going to do for dinner. Any suggestions??? I'm sure one of you can give me one!!! As much as I pin on Pinterest, you would think I would never have a problem.

What's your plans for the rest of the day/tonight? Nothing planned here. I will be spending it here at home, hanging out with my sister and the kids. I'll be heading back to work tonight.

Well, I am off to change the wash and read some of the boards. Hope you are all having a great day! Praying for any of you, your families, and furbabies who need prayers. God Bless and keep smiling! Talk soon!

I hope everyone is having a good week. I honestly don't know how it can be Wednesday already! My eldest son is off school today with a cold. My youngest and myself are still getting over ours. It is raining and cold here today. Think those few warm days we had last week was probably our summer LOL.....

********** MILESTONE DAY **********




Good Milestone Morning, Friends.

Wow!
It -- Is -- Here.
The half-way point to Christmas Season 2013!
Days to the Season: 182
Days to Christmas Day: 224
Need we say more?

Well, Carl thinks so!
Since the half-way marker falls on 'Pines open house Wednesday, that becomes this week's theme.
Everything at the lodge is half off, from the fired twinkies right on down to the gift shop items.
Don't miss a bargain, Folks!

Last cool day yesterday. The heat makes its appearance today and right on through Friday with temps moving from below normal to above normal.
We are starting out at 59 degrees here in the capital city.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday, Everybody.
See you at the 'Pines!

Yahhh!!! Happy Milestone Day!!! :merry:

 

[sugar142286]

Good Morning MMC!!!!!! It's going to be a hot one here today with a high near 90. BOO!!!!!!! I hope it's cooler at the pines. Not much going on here today. My buddy is supposed to come over to fill me in on all of the latest drama in his life this morning. Then I need to get some cleaning done. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!

Hello Sugar, I am having a cup of coffee and doing laundry too. I just fried chicken cutlets for dinner, I have to decide what else I'm going to make. My daughter has to go in to work later this afternoon so she needs to eat an early dinner. Hope you have a good night at work!

 

[MerryBells]

It's been a really busy day here. Thank goodness I get off at 3:00!

Good afternoon!
I have been busy doing spring cleaning, getting rid of a bunch of stuff that really do not know why I still have. And the dust! Goodness, I even dust on a regular basis (well once a month anyway!) and still have tons of it. But my living room is looking much better and less cluttered again.
Having pizza for supper because this is the last day for kids company and we are having a party!
Have a great day!!!
