Good Morning MMC!!!!!! It's going to be another decent day here with a high of 81. I actually slept over 8 hours last night, so I have some energy today. So I'm going to tackle my kitchen today. I want to clean every thing off of the counters and scrub them down. Then I'll move the dryer, freezer, stove and fridge and scrub the floors. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!

awesome!
I came home form work and could not stand the mess still left over from camping and spent the last 2 hours cleaning. Dinner is done now and I can eat in peace and a clean room!
Have fun with your cleaning.

How did he get them to jack up the A/C in my office so it's blowing cold air directly on me today??? Thanks, Carl, but when I want the "burrrrr"s I'll come and get them ... please don't deliver! The fan has been blowing directly on me for over an hour, and it's driving me nuts. Even with a space heater at my feet. Enough already!

so that is who turned it up ! It was practically snowing in my house when I got home from work!
Gonna have a talk with that camel when I get to the pines!

Good evening, friends! How are all of you? I am doing well. Just relaxing with the family, doing a few things around the house, which you all know is never ending, and will go lay down for a nap here in a little bit.

What are your plans for tonight? As I said, I plan on just napping before work. I am off tomorrow, so I am looking forward to that. DH works tomorrow night, so it will be just me and the kids here, but I am hoping to maybe get caught up on some of these posts! I am quite behind! It doesn't take long, once you do start.

Well, I am off to try to read some, then head to bed. I will talk to you all tomorrow. Hope you all have a great rest of your evening. Thinking of you all! God Bless and always, keep smiling!

Good evening everyone!

It's almost 11 p.m. here, and I hope that you all had good day - or maybe still having a good day. :]

I got back to studying my academic vocabulary today because I start my second year at uni in less than three weeks and I want to be prepared for it. Anyway, studying somehow made me feel sleepy so I had more coffee today than usually in order to keep me going. ^^ My excitement for the day came back in the evening because European basketball championship began today and my home country's national team played their first game. (I use to play basketball in Lithuania so I know the game and its rules, and therefore watching the match makes a lot more sense to me than for majority of ladies. Deciding which player is handsome and which is not is obviously easier than sticking on the game itself. ^^) Anyway, despite the fact that we lost this time, I'm still optimistic about upcoming games - there will definitely be better times, won't there?

Sorry for such a long post.

Oh, and the most important thing - I have received a Platinum Membership as a gift from one of the members in the forum earlier today, and just because he/she stays anonymous, I don't know who the person is, but if you, my dear, is know reading this post, I want you to know that you definitely left me in a slight shock in the very morning, and you really made my day. Or maybe a week. Or a month. I hadn't expected anything like this EVER (I didn't even know you could actually give someone a Platinum Membership as a gift) so I'm extremely grateful, and I do appreciate it very much.

It must have been boring reading all this. Sorry again.

have fun with the studies! I am having a hard time staying on track with mine. :-o
Glad to see you have joined the platinum group!

awww that is so cool! Got any pictures?

Sorry, but no. Wish I had gotten one of our receptionist when she answered the phone with one hand and had a very businesslike conversation while she cuddled a puppy with the other hand! I understand that a lot of employees' Facebook pages were breaking out in puppy pictures.

Hope you get some rest and have a good night at work!!!!

Thanks buddy! I shall try and I hope so. You try to get some rest as well!

Between cleaning up, making dinner and hanging out here I finally have all three done!
Going to the Pines now, curious to see that surprise Carl says he has for me. A bit nervous, but I will go.
See you all there!

 

[sugar142286]

Busy night, like usual. Trying to get LC down tonight was tough because he was full of P & V probably due to anxiety for his first day of school tomorrow. I have my night shift tomorrow, so I will be able to see the boys off on the bus and get those pictures.

I hope everyone had a great day.


Good night all.

I hope LC had a great first day!

Don't get in the pool!!!!!!! I jumped in as soon as I got here with out testing the water first and talk about a shock!!!!! It was ice cold water!!!!!!! He definitely put the 'Burr in it!!!!

 

[sugar142286]

I was about to post the same thing xmas! So excited to see a Christmas promo on already, go Hallmark!!!

I can't remember when I saw it, but it was a week or two back and I was sooo excited! Yes, yahhh for Hallmark!

 

[sugar142286]

I hope you all have a good day. I will try to check in on my lunch break and if I can't I will check in after work.

Maybe Carl will have a little something to calm my nerves tonight at the Pines. Wait...on second thought....I want to make sure I make it back for my second day on the job tomorrow, so I'm staying away from anything Carl tries to give me.

Have a good Wednesday!

It wasn't boring reading this at all, Victoria. I used to be the scorekeeper for my school's basketball team, and my boyfriend was the center. I loved traveling with the team and checking out the cute guys on the other team, LOL! Congrats on your new membership. I guess Christmas came early for you this year!
