Good morning, everyone!

I hope you all enjoyed that extra hour of sleep last night. I think, even Simon (the cat) realized the clock went back. He didn't wake me up this morning until 6:30, his usual feeding time. Smart guy!

Today seems like it will be a day for housework. Kim and I were out for much of yesterday. We did some Christmas searching at Rideau Centre in the afternoon. I found plenty of great photos. Some stores had a few Christmas decorations, but others are still transitioning. No real big Christmas setups, unfortunately. Only The Bay had some Christmas decor - it still wasn't as nice as other major stores, however. i will post some photos to the Blossoms thread shortly!

Aside from Christmas, Kim and I also did some groceries. We're set for the week! Oh, but we did watch White Christmas. I actually had not seen it before. Kim and I greatly enjoyed seeing Bing dance his way all over the TV screen. It was a great way to bring us closer to the Season. In my opinion, I wouldn't call it much of a Christmas movie - to today's standards - but it was still enjoyable!

November 2nd is here. I hope you're all as refreshed as I am from that extra hour! Have a great Sunday, everyone!!

Good morning, Brent!
Looking forward to your Christmas pics!
Please give Simon a hug for me, he sounds like such a sweetie.
Hope you & Kim have a great Sunday! =)
 
Our tree is up! Not decorated yet but it's up! We put it up last night. (It still needs a little straightening out.)

When we dragged the tree out of the box and set it up Snow-in-Texas kept saying the tree looks really bad (and it did), he said we really need a new one. It was so tempting to run out a get a new one but as Linus would say, "Maybe it just needs a little love". So we straightened all the branches out, put the lights on and it started looking better. Now I took this picture this morning and seeing some gaps that need to be straightened out - I think the cats played a bit in it! Ha ha!!! One of my cats climbs in this tree all the time. I bought it from Hobby Lobby over 15 years ago and it's held up to the cats abuse! :lol:

The angel on top of the tree turned 27 years old this year! I just love her! =)

Looks so beautiful Sheila!!!! I love it!!!

Good Morning, Track!!!!

Good morning! Happy Sunday!
I hope you have some great plans for the day.
I still need to go through my essay once again and check it before I upload it for the final grading.
And I have to put 'PowerPoint' slides together for tomorrow's presentation.
Not complaining. Just reminding myself that it's naive to believe that higher education is easy to achieve.
Best wishes to all, and enjoy your day!

Good luck with all of the school work!!!!!!!

Good afternoon!

Good afternoon, Solice!!!!

Good Morning MMC !

-3c (26f) this morning, very frosty.

Staying home today, have to finish sewing the curtains for LittleCS's bedroom and work on the cake.

It is my favorite sons birthday today. Hard to believe he is 27 already, my baby!!!

Good Morning, Star!!!!! Good luck with your projects!!!!! Happy Birthday to your son!!!!!

Good morning, friends!
It isn't too chilly here, we are currently at 30 degrees. Sunny, with a high of 54! Better get out & enjoy it! =]
What are your plans today?
We have a few projects to work on around the house, and in the garage. Then, I plan to try and get a box or two out of Christmas, as time allows. Hallmark movies will be on all day!
Wishing you a blessed & beautiful day with your loved ones!

Hope you can get your projects done with plenty of time left to put out Christmas and enjoy Hallmark!!!!!

Have a great day, Buddy!!!! Praying for all of you. ((Hugs))

We had a cold, damp day here yesterday after an overnight rain.
No sun all day.
Old Sol should return today but it will remain cool.
We are at a chilly and cloudy 41 degrees here, currently.


Have a Super NFL Sunday, Folks!

Have a great day, Crown!!! Good luck to the Panthers!!!

Good morning!
It's going to be windy today with temperatures in the 40's. The house was chilly this morning, I had to turn up all of the thermostats.
Everyone's still sleeping here, I'm having my pumpkin spice coffee and enjoying the peace.
I feel like I'm getting sick again. It's crazy, I just got over a cold a couple of weeks ago. This will be the third time I'm sick since I started the preschool job in September. So many germs in that place. The good thing is I'm now down to Tuesdays & Thursdays so I get to stay in and rest tomorrow!
Anyway, I hope everyone is well and has a great day!

Hope you get feeling better soon and have a great day, HMG!!!!

Glad to hear there was no damage to your house, bummer you had to by a new microwave, but glad you're able to look on the brighter side of things.

Keeping you guys in my prayers, MerryCarey. Lots of (((hugs))) to you guys!

Thank you, sugar. I sincerely appreciate every hug.
 
Happy Sunday to you too gorgeous!
We are fine thank you....
I have some pain in my hands/fingers
Some kids with cold, other than that - we are fine!
How are you?
Have you started decorated for Christmas?

We (me and Thomas) was planning to go to Boston on Thanksgiving (and stay all weekend)
But my MIL couldn't watch the little one so many days so we are going to Scotland instead!
(flight time only 1 hour)
Friday (blackfriday) to Sunday
Not the same, but I hope to find some Christmas inspiration there too!

Im planning Thanksgiving and prepping for the trip to Scotland
since we are leaving early friday morning after TG

And Im SO ready to decorate for Christmas.
I have hung up some lights in my kitchen window
and more decoration will come up the next days

Have a holly Jolly Christmas :???:It's the best time of the year

I hope you'll come to Boston some other time! We live not too far from there.
Enjoy your Thanksgiving and your time in Scotland!

(Can't believe Thanksgiving is so close!)
 
My MIL just had chemo again yesterday, and is fighting the good fight. She is such an inspiration.

Chemo is so difficult … it DOES take courage to go through it. My hat is off to her. And to you and your family for helping her to get through it.

It looks just fine!

Seeing everyone's decorations going up makes me feel tardy. But I generally put the tree together and string the lights on it when I get home from work on the day before Thanksgiving, and decorate it within the next week or so. It's gotten to be a tradition---the hard part is finished before Thanksgiving, and I can look forward to the easy part afterward!
 
MerryCarey, keeping you and Mr. in my prayers! I hope you have a merry Sunday!


Thank you! I think I'll be doing a few Christmassy things today. I need to record some dialogue for a Christmas project---just waiting for the laundry to finish so the washer isn't heard in the background! We're having a very blustery day here, so hoping the sound of the wind won't reach the mic.

As I mentioned, it's blustery, the wind is throwing things around outside, and snow is mixing in with the rain occasionally. It's so raw and nasty outside, I think we'll have a chicken pot pie later for comfort food!

Now that November is here, I'll be bringing out Christmas books and stories to read and 24/7 Christmas music---hoping that will help to break my recent funk and get me in the holiday spirit.

Gotta run and put the laundry in the dryer, but I'll be back later.

Happy Sunday, everyone!
 
Actually, they lost to the Saints last Thursday, Made.

I thought they could pull out the homefield "upset" on Thursday. I've usually been pretty good at picking upsets this season. Unfortunately, I was wrong on this one.
