Christmas Countdown - 2013

[MerryBells]

I got home from work yesterday, and found out that the leaves were opening up on our big oak and maple trees and the blossoms are finally coming out on our dogwoods. And this morning we had our first thunderstorm of the year. Hooray!

thinking about you all, and worrying about the ice and wind where you are, cs, and those who are where the flooding is. Also thinking calming thoughts for cs, and cozy warm thoughts to chase away cah's cold.

We slept late today to make up for the long day yesterday, then just bummed around frederick, including a visit to our favorite used-book shop. Mr. Is now boxing up our finds to ship home. Also found some nice birthday gifts for friends. Had a substantial dinner at a local buffet.

We'll bum around a little more tomorrow, then probably get together with my aunt, my cousin, and his family later tomorrow, then the service for my dad is saturday morning. Got some of the final details settled today and will be talking to the pastor tomorrow afternoon, so we should be all set at last.

Can't believe it's 9:45 already.

Came up with a wonderful idea for an afghan over dinner, or rather mr. Did.

Sorry this is so disjointed---i don't compose well on the ipad ...

Good night, everyone.

Well what a day it has been. THe last 2 weeks We have been getting ready for our move in early June.. I have decided to play baseball again this spring for the Base and I think this will be my last.. I am 38 and just can't keep up with the 19 and 20 year olds...but I try. But when I just found out about Louanne me and Brandi are really devastated and I am sitting here crying like I did when my father passed away... Things will not be the same whithout her that is for sure...the 3 years I have been here have been so great..I have connected with likeminded folks who share the love of the holidays...and I do love each and every one of you guys even though I am not around as much as I use to be it is because of work and things...I sure do miss it when I am not here...Just wanted everyone to know that...talk to yall later...!

{{{HUGS}}} We love you, too, Dawg!

Good morning everyone! Its very early but I have to start getting ready for work today it should be the last 12 hour day for a while....oh btw I have been working overtime due to the cuts in the military you may have heard were coming that is entirely off the subject though. I have had a night to reflect on the passing of Louann and I sure will miss her I know we all will but This holiday 2013 we should strive to make it a great one like other posters have said like in her honor...She will be in Heaven where everyday for her will be like Christmas and there will be no sadness like there is here on earth and although we miss her she is in such a better place anyhow I cant get her off my mind....I guess it will take time for this to settle in...I hope everyone has a blessed morning! Iwill be back later on tonight!

I hope you have a blessed morning, too, Dawg!

Good morning, MMC!

The river is supposed to crest later this evening - about a foot and a half over flood stage. The basement was pumped out this morning - so far nothing has been damaged. Yay!

Have a MERRY day!!!

Hey MMC buddies! Well us east coasters have made it to lunchtime! I usually just eat a turkey sandwich but today I am just going to have some fruit and juice and just try to let that hold me till tonight. I have talked to brandi as usual during her planning period and she told me she broke down in front of her class when a particular subject came up she just said it reminded of me talking to her about how much Louann loved animals and how I would tell snowball everynight that aunt louann told him goodnight. This will take us all time to get use to MMC without her posts everyday. I guess I have just known now a little over 14 hours...anyway I just want to get home and give Brandi a kiss and the boys and snowball and Kylee a huge hug! I am feeling for her dog that was sick..especially since she has passed..well here I go again...I will talk to yall when I get home tonight...Have a good afternoon everyone and I hope no one is getting any bad weather..so far here it has just been cloudy and windy and very humid for April! we had rain last night and the tornado sirens went off for a few min.but after the rain came for 15 minutes it swept throughfast...okay talk to yall later!

Good afternoon gang ... its cold and rainy, it has been raining all day and excpected to last until this even. Thinking grill cheese and tomato soup will in order for dinner tonight.

Kids are suppose to have opening day for little league tomorow but it may get pushed off until Sunday, depending on the fields. Either way the kids and I will be baking cookies this weekend. I am going to make my molasses drop cookies since I didnt get a chance to make them at Christmas time and the kids have yet to decide on the other cookie.

This weather just makes me wat to curl up on sofa under a nice warm blanket and watch a christmas movie... humm maybe tonight.

Hope everyone has a nice day and stay safe in this weather.

Binger if you're already in line at the grocery store, save a spot for me. One can never have enough coffee stocked away in the pantry. :wink:
