I spoke to him a few days ago, but he has posted since then. His mom is not doing very well. I'm sure he appreciates our prayers & thoughts.

Thank you for the update. They are in my thoughts.

TRUE, Made! We've had one other tree-falling incident, but it was pre-lights and decorations and no cat involvement! We've had cats for 10 years (got these 2 about 2 weeks before Christmas last year) and never had an issue with cats + trees.. sigh!

Good morning everyone and a happy Sunday to you all. My wife and I are heading out for some orange mochas and a plunder round a few shops. There may be a detour to a Christmas shop

Good morning, 'Tis the season! Sounds like a lot of fun! Enjoy your day!

She's still coughing off and on. She isn't worse so I haven't gone back to the veterinarian yet. The last couple of times she was on medicine it didn't really seem to make a difference. CAH suggested that I buy her a cool mist humidifier and run it at night. I have been doing it and I swear she's coughing a bit less!

That's good news! I hope she continues to feel better! Continued prayers for Maggie!

Good morning,

I don't know how I feel about going out there to hang the lights, it is 23*f but with wind chill feels like 7*f, brrrrrrrrrr.

My body is very tired and sore, from yesterday.

We may try to get stuff done inside instead.

I hope you all have a great Sunday.

I picked up my cards for the exchange yesterday. I think I will get a start on mine sometime this week.

DH and I plan on trying to do some wrapping after the kids go to bed, as long as we can both stay up!

I hope you managed to get some of your gift wrapping done - must be hard to fit in with all the fun things you do with the kids and work. A MERRY Sunday to you and yours, sugar!

I'll probably send my cards out monday. Enjoy your evening Meceka!!!!

Since I never seem to have enough time to finish my cards all in one sitting I will be sending them out in batches. How is your mom doing? Well, I pray! I hope you were able to get some good sleep in and that you have a MERRY Sunday, made!

I can't say I blame you, Xmas. I know I wouldn't want to be hanging lights in this cold. DH does the outside as well and I know he won't want to be doing it when it's this cold either. I wish he would have done it a week or so ago when it was warmer. Oh well. Take a day and enjoy, relax!

We ended up not doing any last night. DH wasn't feeling the greatest and I just laid in bed, relaxed, and watched a movie. EA kept getting out of bed, coming over to my room, until she finally fell asleep in her own bed thank goodness, but I just didn't want her to see her gifts. Have a great day as well, Meceka! :dance:

She is pretty much back to normal, thanks for asking. Maybe still a little worn out from it but all of the physical signs are gone.

I did sleep good!!! I could still take a nap though.

Stay warm up there!!!!!!
