Just remember, in a few years you'll miss the Grandma Got... marathons. It will be a great memory and one you will laugh about. We get that way with The Wiggles now.

DS and I are watching it again, as I'm trying to get him to sleep. We did a break from that for a little while and watched Jingle and Belle. I agree with you totally, I am just blessed to just be able to spend time with them and have these memories.

Oh...the Wiggles...not a show I can tolerate so much. God Bless you! :-D

Made, how you feel after that game? I was hoping you didn't get mad and stop watching!

It feel like I just watched LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!! It's great!!!!

I actually missed the first quarter. So I only got slightly mad by halftime. If I had watched the entire first half, I may have quit watching.

@HomemakinGirl
Our schools and many grocers and businesses like Target have already announced they will be closed on Monday. I don't envy anyone attending the Packer game at Lambeau Field tomorrow...I'll stay in the living room with a fire and watch!
It's so nice that you check on your parents and are always thinking of what you can do for others. The world could use many more folks like you for sure.
Be safe out there!

What a nice thing to say momnan, thank you so much. You are very sweet! I think it's great that schools and businesses in your area will stay closed. Very rarely will that happen here. There needs to be blizzard like conditions for businesses to close. I hope you also stay safe and warm and cozy too!

It looks so bare in here now.

I know the feeling. My apartment just looks drab after taking everything down yesterday.

Can you ice skate on it??

I assume so. But I will not attempt to!

Oh, my goodness! Where are the ducks?

I was just thinking about them the other day. Remember when they walked up my steps? I think they wanted to come in my house.

Which site is that, Sugar?

http://www.mostlychristmas.com/

Their Holiday TV section is awesome. I also follow MerryChristmastv.net, but they are down, now that the season is over. This other site is still up and appears that they will keep posting.

Painting my apartment is high on my list of things to do this year.

Good afternoon, MMC!

This area is now under a winter storm warning - I'm hearing different snowfall totals so not sure what exactly to expect. Stocked up on pet food, milk and other necessities so as long as the electricity stays on all will be good.

I never did finish my book last night but I did watch "The Year Without a Santa Claus", "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" and "For Better for Worse Christmas". My mom loved that comic strip and got me interested in reading it every day. Good stuff!

Stay safe!!!
Sounds like a great Christmassy night.

Is the For Better Or Worse Christmas on DVD? I loved that comic strip when I was younger.

My eye is still bruised and its painful when I touch it. I think its going to take a couple of weeks to heal. Thank you for asking. I'm getting very klutzy in my old age!

I hope your eye heals quicker than you think!

Happy New Year everyone! This is my first post in the countdown thread! I wanted to jump in here to say hello before I retire to the bedroom to watch some true crime mystery..sounds fun huh. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and happy New Year...I know a lot of us including myself kind of feel the blues from time to time but honestly this year has not been too bad yet with the PCB's. The last of my and Brandi's family left on the 2nd and that was kind of sad but at the same time it was good to think about getting into a new routine of back to work etc etc.

The weather in the East and Midwest looks BRUTAL! We are really quiet here with lows in the single digits and highs in the upper 20's which is normal really. We have not had much snow at all in the last week or 2. We really need some new snow because I swear we still have November snow on the ground and it's brown! I still have about 7 inches in my back yard but by weds we have a chance for some flurries so that is a start!! you guys in the Midwest and New England Bundle up please!!!

Well that is about all I can think of right now. I go back to work on Monday since being off the last 2 and half weeks so it will be downright brutal too but I hope to be able after that first day back to hang around here more so everyone have a good rest of your weekend and I will talk to yall tomorrow!!g'night!

Hi, Dawg - good to see you back! Happy New Year to you, Brandi and the boys!

Congrats, Made!!!

I checked the game and the Colts were down 31-10, next time I checked the score it was 45-44. Must of been a heck of a game.
