Christmas Countdown - 2013

[xmas365]

ya' know how I've told y'all my job isn't the greatest? (fyi, I'm a florist) here's a prime example of why; I will start by saying that I cannot handle anyone harming a child or elderly person or anyone who is defenseless...

my love for each of you abounds & again please accept my apologies for such a grim post.:merry:

That is horrible, I could never understand why someone would hurt another person, especially a child. I am sorry you go through this at you job. My thoughts are with that child.

Good Morning, MMC!!


The Pines wore me out last night! I need some extra coffee this morning!!

I need to catch up on a lecture today, and do some more reading.

What is your day like at work? Or home?

Attached is a pic of my baby girl, after a snowy walk in the woods... I just love the snow on her snout!

Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

I'm heading out to see the cardiologist in a minute. I'll try to be back after lunch. I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

I hope all goes well with the cardiologist.

Good Morning MMC!!!!! It's going to be a little bit warmer here today so the snow should start melting away today. It will really melt tomorrow it we hit 53 like they are predicting. It looks like we might get 1 more snowfall though before spring arrives. I'm hoping that is true. We are only 1 inch below normal for the year so it would be nice to get that and say we had a normal winter for the first time in several years. I don't know what I'm doing today. When my friend left yesterday he said he may come back today and have me help him take some pictures of different things around town. I'm hoping he gets busy though and doesn't show up. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!

Park your vehicle somewhere else and pretend you aren't home. cheesy

Hello everyone. I hope you all are having a great Thursday. My son has strep throat and tomorrow is his birthday. He was sick last year on his birthday and had to cancel his party. So, I'm hoping he's better and that he can have a fun time.

Today is supposed to be in the 60s and tomorrow may be up to the 70s with possible thunder storms heading our way Saturday. Spring may have arrived in Oklahoma. Our winter's don't last long.

I hope your son is feeling better.

Good morning,

I ended up calling out this morning, the lousiness still remains but my head isn't as cloudy. Just relaxing now watching the movie "Miracle" (the 1980 USA hockey team), Coach Herb Brooks was a real hard-a**, but he got the best out of his team, I wish I could remember it better I was only 5 when they won the gold, but I still get the chills watching highlights. The snow has stopped, for now, but it was snowing hard this morning but it has all melted. The newest forecast calls for close to a foot tonight into tomorrow. I am going to take it easy for the rest of the day, but I will spend time here, like usual.

Enjoy the day!

I hope you have a great day, too!

Good a.m. My MC peeps!:merry:

how the heck are ya?
I've been pretty busy between work & home.
xmas, I hope the extra rest helps you feel beeter!

claireloveschristmas, it's so good to see you again! hope all is well & don't work too hard sweety!

CM3, sorry you couldn't sleep last night. you were just excited about the good news from the vet yesterday, weren't you?

I hope everyone is safe & warm in the snow storm.

ya' know how I've told y'all my job isn't the greatest? (fyi, I'm a florist) here's a prime example of why; I will start by saying that I cannot handle anyone harming a child or elderly person or anyone who is defenseless. I take it very personally (I guess that's the right word??) & cannot get it out of my head. I have to make a casket piece today for a 5 YEAR OLD!! this child is gone due to the horrific acts of an adult! I am in mourning for this child, deeply. I will not go into detail about it on here. I try to keep a Christian attitude about it, but I am finding it almost impossible to NOT want harm to come to this person. I do not know this person personally. unfortunately, I learn of this type of news all too often in this business. we are usually the 2nd call made, 1st the funeral home then us. if you go to my FB, go to my likes, click on Lancaster funeral home, then obits, you will see this beautiful little girl's pic. I hope that doesn't sound morbid. the only comfort I find right now is knowing the authorities have the person in custody & the little girl is in Heaven now, probably w/ little angel wings.

I will apologize now for this post, as I am afraid this maybe too much for some. I am extremely close to so many of you & feel as though I can talk to y'all. FB is not the same for me. THIS is my family.
please pray for this family in their time of deep sorrow.


my love for each of you abounds & again please accept my apologies for such a grim post.:merry:

Oh, Merry, that is heartbreaking. My thoughts and prayers are with you! Sending you big {{{{HUGS}}}}!!!

Not much snow overnight, but it's here this morning! It's supposed to fall throughout today and tonight. The roads were just wet when I came to work, but I'm worried about their deteriorating during the day. Cross your fingers that I may be able to get out of here early today before the roads are snow-covered and crowded. The temp is right around freezing, so while the falling snow makes a pretty picture, I'd rather be seeing it out of my own windows instead of the office's. (And the heat isn't working right here today.)

Praying for you and Mr. to make it home safe - stay warm!

Here is my collectible Santa's with the new one in his new home.
I made that shelf when I was in 7th grade, which is now, gulp, 25 years ago.

Good morning, snowflake! I am working from home again today - doing some research for an estate sale I am attending tomorrow. Later on I plan to finish reading book 4 in the Rizzoli and Isles mystery series. I love the pix you post of Har - such a cutie! Enjoy your reading and lecture! I hope you have a beautiful day, too!

I have iPad!!! May I join in?

You can get it for iPad---in fact, I was listening on my iPad as I posted!



Same here! I liked my Kindle Fire, but my MIL got an iPad and was showing off everything she could do with it, so I caved in and bought one. It's my favorite toy!
Say, if you have an iPad, I'll have to call you on FaceTime sometime and we can have a video chat! I love having the capability, but don't have anyone to talk to. Same with the video hangouts and chat on Google+.




I bought a stylus to type with, and it was easier to hit the right "keys." But now I'm a traitor and use my iPad or laptop.
