Christmas Countdown - 2015

[Festive Spirit]

Today was the first day we have had all year that felt like summer, beautiful sunny day. Got loads of work done outside my house

I know! This week is set to be nice here too. I plan on doing my gardens as well before the end of the week.

This month is a bit slower than the rest. But soon I will want the time to slow down, some are never happy lol. Have a great week everyone

Agreed.
Hope you have a great week, too!

Good Morning, friends~
Merry Tuesday!!

I got a call from Adrian yesterday that his truck had to be towed to the shop. I guess it's worse than we thought. So, he's without a vehicle for a bit, hopefully not too long.
And more unexpected bills came in the mail. It was a case of the Mondays!!

Hope you all have a blessed and beautiful day~

Good morning everyone. Well we are on to Tuesday and it's a warm morning here in NY. Probably the last mild morning we'll have till next year or so. Although, ironically last Christmas morning was about 60 degrees when I woke up (granted the temp dropped the entire day and it felt more like Christmas by the end of the day). It was still surreal that when I went for my morning run I came home sweated on Christmas and had to shower to cool off as if it was a July morning. Hoping Christmas this year is more normal (wouldn't mind a snowstorm either but can't be greedy).
Anyway, Tuesday isn't so bad. It's a little better than Monday and as I saw someone mention on this thread from last night soon we'll be begging for the time to SLOW DOWN so let's not rush these last couple of days of September. Time goes fast enough so no need to rush it.
Hope everyone has a great day. And if you can't tell from my continuous posting yesterday it feels great to be back on this site...I really missed it and I'm really grateful to be back on here full-time.

So true. I am always mindful not to rush the days. Each one is so precious.
Have a great Tuesday!

Morning lovley,
So sorry to hear the truck had to go in. I hope it is repaired quickly and not too costly.
Unexpected expenses keep on coming at my end too so I completely understand! Prayers and positive vibes that everything works out for all of us, Have a lovely Tuesday.

Merry Tuesday all.
I am exhausted emotionally and physically these days. We got the car back yesterday which was pretty quick. We were glad about that.

I have my youngest's birthday next week and I am trying to organise for it in the middle of everything else. I left it a bit late haven't I!

Have a great day!

Good evening everyone. What a busy day. Just winding down. My eyes are heavy already, didn't sleep well last night. Maggie's cough has been very bad so I was up with her. Hoping tonight is better, we'll see. The cough suppressant doesn't seem to be helping so I made an appointment with a holistic veterinarian. Maybe they will have a different approach that will help. Thursday was the soonest I could get her in, I'm looking forward the appointment. I'm going to sign off a little bit early. Hope everyone had a great day. Enjoy the rest of the evening. I'll see you in the morning. Keeping you all in my prayers. Goodnight!

Hope you slept better last night HMG!

Good evening,

Sorry I haven't been around much the last few days, I am heading to bed now.
I have a 12 hour shift tomorrow and I am sick as a dog.
Hopefully I can get caught up tomorrow or Wednesday.
Goodnight, everyone.

Hope you slept well and are feeling better this morning--so sorry about your 12 hour shift. Hope it goes fast and is calm.

Well, very successful day overall. I have successfully moved my grandfather in to our home and he is now snug and asleep in his bed. We spent all day, I mean all day doing the un-packing, moving furniture around till we found the right spot, hooking things up, trying to find the "what did I do with that" stuff and Lisa started washing all his clothes, bed clothes (blankets, pillows, sheets) and we washed, cleaned every piece of furniture. Tomorrow, another trip to the dump, more un-packing, hooking up his telephone, cable and all other kinds of things....
Well, goodnight all, I'm exhausted 2x's over.... Good night~

Glad your moving him went well--hope that it goes quickly today and smoothly. Glad he's home with you now.

Well for a Monday it wasn't so bad. I definitely notice how tired I feel compared to the rest of the week. I think having those 2 days off on the weekend makes us all a little lazy (even if we aren't lazy during the weekend). It throws me off a little so I get home and I'm tired on Mondays yet I usually feel each day through the week I gain more energy...so here's hoping to Tuesday doing that a little more than Monday.
Hope everyone sleeps well. Talk to you guys in the morning.

Hope you slept well Edge!

This month is a bit slower than the rest. But soon I will want the time to slow down, some are never happy lol. Have a great week everyone

I already want it to slow down! It's flying by! I love this time of year, especially October!

Good morning

Good morning! Beautiful picture, irishsnow!

Thanks, Sam.
Finances can be such a pain.
Too bad we couldn't meet for a glass of wine & laugh it off together
Prayers & good vibes being sent your way, too. Hope you have a blessed day~

It's warm here today and tomorrow, but then it's back to seasonal weather! I'm using today and tomorrow to wear my favorite summer outfits, knowing they'll be put away until next year likely this week.

You're right about slowing time down--let's enjoy each day as it comes!

Glad you're back! It's nice to meet you!
