Christmas Countdown - 2015

[Holiday]

How cool to be in the Big Parade!! I can't see the pictures; they must be FB pictures, which my work blocks, but I'll check it out on my phone. FYI, I'm not in NYC. It must be some other, less-handsome Brad that your friend's daughter is pictured with!

Too funny! Definitely a less-handsome Brad (Pitt)
They are FB pics! Hope you can see from your phone.

When I started for work this morning, I saw the most beautiful frost pattern on my windshield. It would have made a beautiful carpet, or wallpaper, or a tapestry! I thought, what a shame I have to obliterate it to get to work on time ... doggone workaday world. Then later I realized: If it wasn't for the doggone workaday world, I wouldn't have seen that beautiful frost pattern at all! I would have been doing things inside the house. Sometimes it seems like things happen for a purpose!

Good luck with the prep.
I was asking about Gracie this morning. I believe you are awaiting test results? Been think of you. Prayers that everything will be okay.

Thank you so much Festive!!!

Thank you! Have a wonderful day too!

Thank you!!

I thought it was pretty awesome too! Thanks!

 

[Holiday]

Congrats to them! How exciting!
And how cool to meet Brad Pitt

I hope they do too! How exciting!

So sorry to hear about Maggie and hopefully the antibiotics make her better! Our furbabies sure know how to keep us worried. I say it all the time but I sure wish they could talk!!! We could a diagnosis on them way faster!

They sure do know how to keep us worried!!!

I will be watching and will watch for her! How exciting!!! How lucky to meet Brad!

You sound like you have a lot of fun ahead!

By the way, how is Gracie??? I knew she had some health issues so wondering if she is okay now.

Awesome! I would like to record it, but my DVR space is really low...too many Christmas shows on there. HA! Might have to see what I can do about that!
The daughter in the picture with Brad, isn't the one in the parade, it's her older sister. But how fun for all of them!
Gracie is acting like her normal crazy self! Hopefully her tests come back good! xx

Good Tuesday morning, my Christmas friends!

It's cold down here! I had so much ice on my windshield, I had to scrape it off. That's pretty unusual for us in November!

Mama called to say that she's made an agreement to buy a lawn mower today, and wants me to take her with my truck and a trailer to get it this morning. My truck is such a mess. Lulu is the only one who rides with me, so I pretty much live like a bachelor in it, with Pepsi cans, chip bags and candy wrappers everywhere. I have to go clean it our real quick, so Mama doesn't disown me.

I hope y'all have a great day!

No oreo wrappers? Have a great Eve of the Eve of Thanksgiving Brad.

Glad you got a good nights sleep. Hope your headache is gone today!!
Have a great day Edge!

I rarely get a headache but when I do it's only on a Monday it seems...wonder if that's a coincidence...

Here I go again, "post and run". Sorry, got to go in a few!

I can say one thing that I didn't think would happen but I am ahead of schedule!!! Since I am hosting Thanksgiving I am usually running crazy up until that day getting everything ready. I managed to get a whole lot done yesterday so today I can chill a bit today, that way I can be ready for a lot of cooking tomorrow. My mom and I might go take a walk at the Arboretum today and grab some lunch. I am very excited that my oldest grandson will be joining me tomorrow to help bake and cook! We will have the Christmas music blaring so we can sing along and maybe dance around a bit - Lol! That's a must! Maybe when I get home I can actually read over the forums a bit and catch up with you all!

Never a need to apologize! Have a wonderful time today!

I have no doubt you & your Grandson will have a blast tomorrow! It's so nice to be ahead of schedule! Enjoy! (doesn't happen often ~ at least not for me) LOL!

 

[Holiday]

That's exciting! I hope it isn't so cold Thursday.

It is! I'm not sure what the weather is supposed to be in NYC, but it's supposed to be 60º here! Crazy! This morning is frosty, by Thursday 60?!

Well I guess if you HAVE to have a headache, Monday would be the day! Get it over with!

Good Morning, MMC!!!!! We are off to a chilly start but we are going to get up into the 50's today. So not to bad. I'm going to be spending my day boiling eggs, chopping celery and onion, peeling and cutting up carrots, making cranberry sauce, toasting some bread for the stuffing, and what ever else I find to get ready. I'm thinking of making cupcakes up too for my niece's to make into turkeys on Thanksgiving morning. They love doing stuff like that. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!

So glad that you have your priorities
I had my cousins from the Minneapolis area texting me last night, most are Packer fans too. So happy about that win!
It's nice that you're at Russell today!
Hope you have a wonderful rest of your Monday, friend!

Yep. Packers always come first.

Glad they were also enjoying the victory!

It's always great to be teaching. I am here all week. It's only a four-day week (Friday is a PD Day), but I am more than happy to have 8 of 9 working days in two weeks!
