[made582]

Good morning! What a wonderful morning!

I'm sitting here with the baby in her Moses basket sleeping, drinking coffee, curled up with a fire and a blanket, and watching Christmas Vacation.....wonderful. Just the way it should be!

Today, planning for the work week and picking up the house. I'm pretty zonked, but I will find time for a nap sometime today!

Hope y'all have a good one!

Sounds like the perfect way to spend the morning!!! Enjoy your day friend!!!

Good Morning MMC!!!!! It's going to be a decent day here with a high in the mid 50's and the sun should be out. It also looks like the strong storms will be out of here Halloween morning now so the kids may still get to go out. Nothing big on my agenda for today. Just a few things to do around the house. Then it will be football and racing. Hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!

Hope you have a relaxing day, buddy!!

Good morning from an increasingly cold Stockholm, Sweden.

Slowly planning to start my Christmas shopping tomorrow, so sitting with a cup of coffee putting this year's list together

Nice to see you.

of all mornings to sleep in it has to be the morning I am the substitute count miester! I would appliogize but I feel so good having done so!
so here now is....

Days to Halloween: 4 days
have you got your costumes ready, candy bought to hand out?
Days to the Season: 17 days
and even less to the special posts that kick off the season!
Days to Christmas Day: 59 days
that is less than 2 months!!

So much excitement, hard to stay calm. With snow arriving early in many areas, more and more Christmas displays going up the countdowns getting lower every day! Are you ready?

Have a fantastic day everyone!!

Excellent job, Star! Great to wake up to your countdown! I am ready. I think everyone here will be ready, too!

The time has come, I have a long night ahead of me. I have inventory today, but with yesterday being an absolute disaster I am not planning on being home until late.

Have a good day.

I didn't see them or them yelling for me. They must have forgot the sign.

6 jars. That was all they had left.

There should be a limit on how much you can buy!

LOL!!! That just means you have to go thru uscan and ring multiple orders!!!

I don't know why I bother buying so many cat toys. All I have to do is throw a bag on the floor and they entertain themselves for hours. Any kind of bag. They get right inside of it. Crazy cats!

That's cute! Reminds me of my mom and dad's cats. They do all kinds of crazy things.

Good to see you on the Countdown, PoloPlayr! Sounds like a great morning: coffee and shopping lists.

Thanks for the info about julmust. I had never heard of this, and I enjoyed reading about it! It's fascinating to me how many localized Christmas traditions there are in the world.

Oh... and I've started drinking 'julmust' which truly puts me in such a christmas mood from every sip...

By the way, I just love those Moses baskets!

Good morning to everyone!

It's the Sunday before Halloween ... just over two weeks before the Season begins ... up to my elbows in playlists for Kringle Radio ... time is speeding by already! It's exhilarating and frightening at the same time. There never seems to be quite enough time to savor all the sweetness of the Season while it's here.

Many of the employees at my office have young children, so on Halloween afternoon the office is holding a costume parade and desk-to-desk trick-or-treat for the kiddies. It should be a lot of fun seeing the costumes and handing out candy! I'll be handing out candy here at home, too, that evening, but we usually don't get many doorbells.

Praying work goes by quickly for you Xmas and that it's a good day!

Whew - I am beat! I spent the entire day in the kitchen. My mom made a huge dinner so I helped her out with doing the dishes. That doesn't sound like much but there were a million! Then I decided to make a Texas Sheet Cake from scratch and oh my goodness it was delicious! I wish I would have licked the entire bowl of frosting clean lol. Just thinking about it makes me want to go cut another piece!

I didn't get to do any Halloween activities yet. I think we are saving the pumpkins for tomorrow. We are going to watch a couple of Halloween movies tonight, though! My arm is a little bit better today except I keep getting random twinges of pain. At least it's improving!

What's new with you guys? Anything fun planned for tomorrow?

Thinking of you, Jennifer. Hoping that whatever happened to your arm, you feel better soon!

Talked to my sister and they are having fun on their camping trip. The only thing is the ranger won't let them have a fire since it's so windy out.


(Which it's really only blowing like 5mph so I don't see it as that big of a deal)

Glad the girls had fun, but hope they stayed warm!
