Christmas Countdown - 2014

[Holiday]

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter. Mine was quiet. I went to the church in the morning and had some lunch with few friends in the late afternoon. It was nice though.

Also, I received my shift timetable at the Commonwealth Games last night. I must say that I will be working quite a lot but that's perfectly okey with me because it means I will definitely get the most out of my volunteering there.

I only have few more days left before I start my exam revision. I hope to get my inspiration back and write a generous chunk for the novel. (It's been quite lately in terms of writing.)

I wish you all a nice day! Best wishes, and keep on smiling.

Nice to see you Victoria! Sounds like you are doing well!!!

Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

Well, the grass didn't get cut yesterday. A thunderstorm popped up out on nowhere and brought another 1.5" of rain. That Jacob has the luck of the Irish!

Since the grass was then too wet to cut, I grabbed a socket wrench and went out replacing stop signs that have faded. I bet that's what the mayor of New York City does when he has a spare few minutes, don't you?

I hope y'all have a great day!

WEW! Jacob lucked out! His day will come!! : -) Our mayor does that all the time, oh wait - we don't have a mayor!!! :lol: Our neighbor thinks he's the mayor of our subdivision, but that's another story! Ha ha ha! That was awesome though Brad!

Temps will be up to 86 today so time to open up the house again and air it out! I am trying real hard NOT to run the air conditioner during the day. I am not looking forward to the outrageous electric bills the summer will bring us!

I have to run it at night when it's warm or I just cannot sleep.

I agree! I opened our bedroom window just a crack last night to cool it off - was 51º outside. Felt great w/ lots of covers. Of course I had to close it around 2:30 am! Brrrr...

that is easy to do when you do not get temps down to -40c. Here all our pipes and people would freeze solid.
So glad it is getting warmer! That said I am not a fan of super hot either, which is why I like spring and fall the best.

Hope you are feeling better CS!!!

Prayers that your mum's surgery goes smoothly and she recovers quickly. I hope it goes quickly for you at work and you get to enjoy a little time outdoors in the nice weather. I bet Gracie will love the freedom outside especially as summer is approaching.

Thanks so much festive!! I hope so too!! I hope you are having a great day!!!

Evening all, just popping in as I don't get to say goodnight

I am just making dinner. A quick pasta dish tonight. The kids are washing bottles and cans for recycling. Which means bath time will soon follow as my toddler is involved so you can just imagine water and suds everywhere........

My mum emailed me a photo of Miley (the cat) wearing her custom size Easter bonnet. I just have to post this photo on here for you all to see when I get a chance LOL.

Ok well I hope your day is turning out to be a good one!

Cheers xx

Sounds like a good night at your house! I'll be watching for your picture! :smile:

Good Morning, MMC!!!! It's going to be another beautiful day here with a high in the mid 60's. I've been working on getting my cleaning done all morning. I figured I better knock it out before I got on here in case I get distracted like I did yesterday. I just have a few quick things left to do. I also need to work on figuring out what kind of cake I want to make to donate to my niece's cake walk at their school festival Friday night. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Strawberry cake!! :smile: Nice of you to bake a cake for her cake walk! What an uncle! Was 49º when I went for lunch but with the sunshine, it feels awesome! Hope you are having a great day!

Yep, I'm going to meet some friends next weekend. I'm actually going to be staying in some type of cabin that my friend picked. It was just going to be to hard to take a tent and sleeping bag with me on the 13 hour bus ride that it's going to take to get there.


Plus it will offer more protection from those wild animals that may look at me as one big juicy treat!!!

Um - that's not camping! :lol: :lol: :lol: (sorry Made - had to say it!)

 

[Holiday]

I'll be keeping your mom in my prayers.

Hope you get to enjoy that great weather!!!

Thanks Made!!! And I hope you are enjoying the weather too!!!

Good afternoon!
I was in and out of my house so much yesterday that I ended up falling behind on my chores. I'm just trying to catch up with everything today. Not too much else going on for me. I have a couple of quick errands to run this afternoon as well, then back home to start dinner. A pretty boring day! And I should really get on the treadmill at some point, if I can find the strength. I've been so tired lately!
I hope everyone is well and is having a great day so far!!!

I didn't think you ever had a boring day! You better enjoy it! :lol: I hope you have a chance to get on the treadmill! I'm walking with my neighbor tonight. I'll probably take Gracie out after work too - burn off some of her energy! HA! Have a great day!

 

[Holiday]
