Christmas Countdown - 2014

[Seawaters]

Yes, MC, they are separate. I can hardly wait to watch them. Just think, I saw some of them when they came out originally, LOL!!!

It all sounds good!
Is the Original Amateur Hour a separate set from the 50s TV Classics? If so, it may be the same set we have. Have fun watching all those!

(For the younger set: The Original Amateur Hour, aka Ted Mack's Amateur Hour, was sort of the 1950s version of America's Got Talent.)

Xmas365, I was making a cup of Nutcracker Sweet black tea and found an interesting item on the box. Check out this site!

I wish I had known about this song when I was still in the classroom! It sort of grows on you!

My boys use to watch them, how could anyone forget the annoying Bananas song. cheesy

Holy Smoke! Ive been so busy I missed our first milestone. I mean I didn't miss it I missed posting about it. And already over 5000 posts! Got all my honey dos done yesterday. So we are just going to relax and watch the championship games. Have a Great Day MMC!

Our Christmas was laid back. My SIL gave me a CASE of Christmas in a Jar jam. It does taste like Christmas, the best jam I have ever had. We also got four gift cards to Red Lobster!

Every time you write about Palmer, I laugh out loud. She definitely brings a smile to my face. Thanks for sharing her antics, LOL!

You're welcome, Seawaters! My Christmas was very nice! How was yours? Palmer is doing good - thank you for asking! She is currently running amok in the house and every now and then she jumps up a wall - very hyper cat! cheesy

 

[Seawaters]

Beautiful, Xmas!

Good afternoon,

Still feeling pretty yucky, just relaxing watching the Bruins vs Blackhawks game. Just like last springs Stanley Cup Final, it has been an exciting game. I plan on taking it easy today, I will go through the ads in the Sunday paper, but it is not the same without the Christmas ads. But they will start advertising for Christmas decorations in the coupon sections or Parade magazine soon. A number of years ago I ordered a Santa Claus from Thomas Kinkade in January of 2004 I believe.

I think I may go take a nap soon.


Talk to you throughout the day.

Good afternoon, MMC!

Right in the middle of a dream about a football-sized spider with hairy legs that was thisclose to my face, I woke up. Palmer was sitting on the windowsill, looking angelic - me thinks the P-Cat definitely had something to do with that particular dream! :lol:

Arctic blast round two has arrived. It is very windy out! My brother brought me a coffee and some cookies this afternoon and told me there were white outs in the open areas. Here in the woods it doesn't look like much is happening - so glad I got the majority of my errands taken care of yesterday! What didn't get done I can do later in the week.

Stay warm and safe!

Laid back Christmases are nice! I'm currently looking up what Christmas Jam is - the name is intriguing! Gift cards to Red Lobster are nice gifts - enjoy! I'm glad you enjoy the Palmer tales! cheesy

Thank you, LC would absolutely love that place!

It goes without saying that no apologies are necessary. Your family at home always comes first, and that's the way it should be. We would all feel terrible if it were otherwise---not one of us would steal a moment of your time you spend with Bambina. You and your family will always be a part of our family here, and we'll always cherish your visits and your news.

First, let me say I hope this finds everyone doing well. It has been so hectic here that there has been little time to slow down. But it's a good busy and I'm thankful that I have been.

I've got a confession to make and I hope you all don't think I'm being self-centered. I have not been reading everyone's posts. With a little one in the house, time is such as precious commodity that when I get it, I'm usually picking up, working, cleaning, cooking, etc. I've just been doing a lot of spot reading and it probably going to be that way most of the time. I say that because I don't know what's going on in everyone's life and I don't want to come across as a self-centered jerk.

I have no intentions of not coming here, but I've got to keep the main thing the main thing. Right now, the Little Bambina is the main thing. I know, I know, I didn't have to put this and I'm not trying to draw attention to myself, but I just want everyone to know why there hasn't been as much of me around.

Today, we are going to our first little birthday party. I'm really excited about it. I got the little girl a glove! Hey, we gotta start exposing the Little Bambina's teammates to the sport. We can't wait 6 or 7 years! Kidding...not about getting her the glove though!

After that, it's home to make some cheese dip and watch the games. I'm really excited about the Patriots and Broncos game...I played QB and I love the position. That is the position I coached when I was coaching, also. Those two are the ones you want to be like. Fundamentals are awesome, leadership, and determination to win like no other....

Anyways, I'm off. I will check back in this afternoon during the games. Good luck to the fans of all the teams...

I hope they are feeling better today.

Thanks, Xmas. They are about the same. Nagging coughs!

 

[sugar142286]

ok, I will keep looking, it has to be here somewhere

Good luck!

 

[sugar142286]

That would be fun. Right now, I have a ham hock and bits of ham simmering in chicken broth for navy beans. We go out for dinner a lot because of having no kitchen, but we wanted to be home to watch the ball games today. We could have everyone bring his or her signature dish! I think that would be the world's best potluck!

That sounds great! I am up for that and your dinner sounds delicious!

Glad to hear front you, Coach. No, we don't think you're being self-centered. That's what it's like having a little one, trust me. Enjoy these moments with her. You'll only get them once!

Hope you guys have fun at the party today and enjoy the game this evening. Have a great week as well.

I am so out of the loop, I don't know any of these newer shows. When my kids were small all they wanted to watch was Barney & Friends. I still remember all of the words to those songs.

What a great brother! You be safe and warm, too, Meceka!
