Christmas Countdown - 2013

[snowflake22]

Good evening,


Awesome night for Red Sox fans, I know I have always dreamed of seeing them win it at Fenway Park. It was their first time winning it at Fenway in 95 years, this is just awesome!!!!!! Let's just hope the partying in Boston doesn't too crazy tonight, they were showing a ton of people on the streets near Fenway as the game was ending.

I made it through most of the day at work with a little pain in the back, but about 15 minutes before the end of my shift my back went into the worst spasm I have ever felt. I could barely walk I was in so much pain. I made it home and laid down. I found my heating pad and have been using it since, it feels better but my back is still really sore and tight. I just want to be able to go trick or treating with my boys tomorrow, I am off so I will be able to rest up a little before then.

I am going to watch a little more of the post game celebrations and head to bed with a smile on my face.


Good night all!!!!

Thinking of you. Hope your back feels better, friend, and that you can go trick-or-treating tonight with the boys.

This is absolutely A M A Z I N G ! ! ! Congratulations on your promotion! (Can I call it like that? ^^ ) I'm happy for you. :]

Thank you, Victoria!! Means a lot!!

I must say that you live in a very beautiful and inspiring surrounding. :]



I love your enthusiasm! I'm sure that you'll make your beloved grandpa very happy.

Good morning MMC!
Happy Halloween to everyone celebrating it!
I'm not celebrating it but it is still a good excuse to watch a scary movie tonight. ^^ I'm getting ready to go to the library. Guess what, essay time! ;D I don't have any lectures today because of the strike of lecturers and teachers in higher education around Scotland. The campus still going to be open but I'm not sure about the library so I still have to go and check. I'm not in a mood of working on my assignments though but I have to push myself to a little bit. :]

I hope you all have a wonderful day! Stay safe, and best wishes!

Good luck with your essay!! Enjoy your spooky movie!

Good morning, MMC!

Although I tried to stay up later last night, I was out by 9. A major allergy attack woke me up around 2:30 and I have been up ever since. Getting a lot of work done - maybe I should get up early every day! It is pouring out right now - going to be a warm, but very wet day.

Have a MERRY day!

I hope you feel better, and can fit a nap in today!

((Hugs))

got this special weather statement this morning:

Special weather statement updated by Environment Canada at 4:38 AM EDT Thursday 31 October 2013...
Scary conditions loom for Halloween. And the weather will be Rather unsettled as well.

It will be rain, rain and more rain.
All of Ontario is in the red weather wise,
with rain fall warnings and flood warnings in some areas.
Really hope it will not be as bad as they say.

Stay safe & dry!!

Well, it poured for hours and hours overnight. We have a little break right now and then we're supposed to get downpours all evening long. I guess we won't be having Trick or Treaters coming out in this! We're also supposed to get wind gusts over 40 mph!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!

Stay safe & dry to you, too!!

Look at this little stinker taking a bite out of our Jack-o-lantern!

Happy Halloween, my Christmas friends!

We're planning a family get-together for hotdogs, chips & dips, etc. Then we're taking the little kids around Bellville for some trick-or-treating. Elizabeth made her own costume this year. She going as Wilma Flintstone, since she already has the red hair. She bought material at Hobby Lobby and, utilizing the sewing skills my mom taught her, she sewed Wilma's dress, and it looks Yabba Dabba Doo! She also bought a small neckchain and some large beads to make Wilma's stone necklace. She's so creative!

I hope y'all have a SPOOKY day!

Have fun tonight!! Good for Elizabeth on creating her own costume!! I bet she'll look very sweet!

Good Morning! Just wanted to say Happy Halloween! Its a rainy gloomy Halloween here in PA (just visiting family) and Im looking forward to some snowy weather this year!! So excited to be closer to ChristmasTime!!

Nice to see you, SnowMaiden!! Happy Halloween!

Clowning around at work on a tropical vacation

Getting lots of rain here. I just went out and fed the outdoor fur kids during a lull in the steady rain - made it just in time! I only got a bit damp, and most of that was from walking under the dripping branches of the apple trees. Accuweather has the area under a high wind advisory - scary stuff when we get a lot of rain as a lot of trees fall. Be safe, Christmasstar, and dry, too!!

Good Morning!!

And HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!

I wasn't able to log on all morning, until now.

It is a hauntingly beautiful morning, here. Rainy, FOGGY, dark. So fitting!!

I have the day off. And there's lots of errands to run, starting with grocery shopping! I must be back in time for the cute little trick-or-treaters!!

Hope you all have a fun & spooky day!!

Oh my goodness, I love this picture - what a cutie! I love watching the squirrels/chipmunks when they are in the walnut trees, but I have never had the privilege of getting such a good view. Great shot, HmG!

Eat drink and be scary!!

You HAVE to post a photo of her in the Halloween Photo contest! Sounds like a super costume.

The day started off lousy. A couple weeks ago we ordered a new cooktop with installation and haul-away. This morning it was delivered right on schedule (i.e., the delivery guys literally dumped it on our kitchen floor) and started to leave. What about the installation? we asked. They didn't know anything about any installation---they were only delivery guys. We called up to find out what was going on, and got bounced to another number, and another, and another---we spoke with five different offices, and they all swore that we never ordered or paid for installation, in spite of the receipt we were looking at.

Long story short, the guy who rang up the sale when we bought the cooktop did it wrong and didn't enter the installation properly. So now we have a boxed cooktop (which may be damaged due to the delivery guys' rough handling---but they told us not to worry, the merchant would have to replace it if it's broken...!) monopolizing our kitchen floor until an undetermined time window on Saturday, when it will finally be installed (for a few hundred dollars more, of course). Arghhhhh ... We WILL be visiting the local store and speaking to a manger about a certain sales associate who badly needs remedial training.

I'm back.....Whew ....I couldn't log in here for almost 2 days, apparently the server/ site blocked my IP address. I was sooooo sad , I started to go thru MMC withdraws :sad:. I could not even contact the head guy to let him know what was going on, it was blocking me from his personal web page as well.

So, I was able to get in under Merry Christmas TV and get an email off to Jeff and then I was also able to get in contact George Broderick and I sent him a personal email -----S.O.S. So all's well that ends well, I'm back , up and running! I missed you guys~:!!

That is very frustrating. Hope they take good care of you guys. Good luck!!

BTW, y'all should check out the Bing Search Engine page. The have a scary haunted house scene with background sounds, and "clickable" areas that react. It's pretty cool!

That is very cool!!!

I hope they take care of you for the hassle you've had to deal with.

Happy Halloween!!!!

It is Halloween and I am watching..."Elf," there isn't much on for Halloween shows (that I like) right now.
Still in the glow of the Sox win last night.

There is rain in the forecast for trick or treating, we will still head out but with an umbrella.

I hope you all have a great Thursday.
