I leave my Santa's out until my wife complains about them, and the window candles stay up until spring, which will be like 10 days before Easter this year.
My wife picked up a birthday cake for me yesterday, it is all covered in snowflakes. It looks a little Christmassy, I like it. Can't eat it until tomorrow though.

Early Happy Birthday to you!

Made, I thought they had a chance to win today, but I didn't think they could win it all. Still a year or so away...but they will be back. I still wonder...why let Manning go? Why not play him...let Luck take his lumps in practice...and get better...like the Packers did Rodgers? I mean I guess it worked out....what do you think?

That is strange how it doesn't let you record it.

Thanks xo I have tried many times and I always get a message about how that station cannot be recorded ......

Good morning, friends! How are all of you today? I am well. Just enjoying some coffee and trying to get motivated to get some things done around here!

DH has pretty much all of the Christmas stuff down, except for the tree, so I need to help him put it away. I want to throw some type of soup in the crockpot here as well.

This afternoon, we have to go to the funeral home - DH's best friend, which he is also our's son's godfather's, his dad passed away. We will do that, then come home and spend some time with the kids.

It's back to work for me tonight. I am off to help DH and make dinner. Talk you guys later on!

Just quickly looking at my trees, I already see lights and garland that needs to be replaced for next year. My chaser lights only every third light is working, quite a few C7 bulbs have burnt out. (I already bought 2 boxes of those.) Some of my bubble lights have burnt out, I always worry about finding those though. I need to write this stuff down in my notebook, and keep my eyes open online for things. The pain and joys of Christmas decorating. cheesy

Gosh, I really love bubble lights !! I didn't know you had those !! xo

Hmmmm. I have a council meeting tomorrow evening. I've been thinking of making a motion to change the city name from Bellville to JingleBellville. Has a nice ring to it, don'tcha think? cheesy

I love that name !!! - Sounds so Christmassy !! xo

Good Sunday morning, my Christmas friends!

I worked most of the morning with the crew taking down the city's Christmas decorations from the power company poles. It was a bit sad, but we were discussing when to get started on repairs for next year, and when to start working on putting up the (soon to be ordered) Fall banners. It gave me a little cheer to think that fall decorating has to start in just 9 council meetings!

The rest of the day, I worked at my brother's shop on the Camaro he's rebuilding for me. We put it on the rack and sprayed the underside with rubberized undercoating, then did some more disassembing. I have to say, I didn't know a car could come apart in so many pieces. I'm taking the front frame section (known as the front clip) to my brother-in-law for sandblasting this afternoon.

I'm learning a lot!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

That car is going to be so awesome when it is done - I hope you post pictures !!!! xo

[caninemom3]

Has anyone heard from MGRamsey? I sure hope his mom is doing okay.

I havent seen any posts from him for a while....His last visit to the site was on 01/03/2013...Sure hope all is okay.

 

[caninemom3]

I went through and quickly read through all the posts I missed. I say quickly but it actually took me a couple of hours!

Excited about this starting our own town idea. Great mascot and street names. I can open up a cake decorating shop!

How about planting only pine and spruce trees, every type available so that they can all be decorated and everyone different. Houses have to look like they are made of gingerbread.

I would love to have a dogwood tree as well for obvious reasons !! xo

Gosh, I really love bubble lights !! I didn't know you had those !! xo

I bought them at Lowe's 2 years ago, they aren't the classic red/green bottom but they are clear with a colored light inside. I would love to find the classic style but the prices are a little high for me now.
