Thank you so much ♥

.

Thanks Holiday! It went well, her vision has been clearing up. She plans on having the other eye done after the holidays. :)
You're welcome <3

Glad to hear that your mother is recovering well!
 
Good morning everyone, Happy Monday!
I had to follow my daughter to the auto dealer this morning to drop her car off for service. Then I had to drive her to work so I'm running behind on my errands and chores this morning. I'm going to head out in a little bit, I'm going to The Christmas Tree Shop to get a skirt for the new tree. I started decorating it last night but I was too tired to finish. I'll get it done this afternoon. I did get most of my decorating done this weekend, I can't believe how late it's taking me to finish this year. I'm really happy with everything though, it looks very festive in here. I have a couple of other errands to run while I'm out, then back home to work on chores around the house. I also want to get a pot of Italian Wedding Soup started for dinner before I have to pick my daughter up from work and head back to the dealer for her car. That's about it for me. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend and has a great week ahead!

good evening ! First batch of raisin bread is made, only 21 loaves left to bake before next Saturday ! My son did all the kneading because my arm is still not healed enough to do it.
The making of this bread for everyone in the family was started by my mom many years ago and is now carried on by me and my kids.

What a wonderful tradition CS!

Spent 5 hours with my step-father decorating his house with about 2/3 of my mom's village. View attachment 17075 My back is sore from bending over but I am very happy his house is now festive, especially now that mom is no longer around to decorate.
That was so nice of you to help decorate...it looks great!

Good Morning, friends~
Merry Monday!
Hope you have a great start to your week!

Happy Monday Binger...that is great you are done shopping!

Afternoon all

Hope you are all well
Have a great day Irish!

Good Monday Morning MMC! It doesn't matter what day of the week it is (although I do still like Saturdays a bit more than Mondays :)) but I am in total 24/7 Christmas mode. I think we all are here. I just wish we could freeze time right now. I watched a bunch of Christmas shows this weekend and plan on watching many more this week. I finished 95% of my Christmas shopping. I'll get a few more things and then begin the wrapping part this coming weekend. That takes quite a while. A friend of the family wants me to help him move stuff around on Saturday morning so he can put up his tree. He asked me to help. Who am I to not want to help decorate a Christmas tree? :)
I hope you all have a great Monday and just be happy that Christmas really is coming!
Merry Monday Edge!

Good morning MMC! Happy Monday!! At least it's a Monday during our favorite season!!! Hope you all had a great weekend!
Friday I shopped with my friend ALL day! We left around 8:30am & got home around 1:30am. Whew! So fun! Can't believe our annual shopping trip is over already - always look forward to that! Saturday morning our HS Football team played in the state championship game & got beat 22-20! :( I think they were stunned - they were back to back state champs, they were hoping for a three-peat! It was a good game & the other team seemed very deserving. It was a clean game (no dirty plays on the field like you find sometimes at the state level) It was hard not to be happy for them! Jim went to the game, I watched on the big screen in my warm house while putting more decorations on the tree! :) Saturday night we went to a holiday party at a lake neighbors house, which was very nice. Yesterday was candy day at Moms. It was a long day of standing, dipping stuff in chocolate. LOL! After everyone left Mom & I made 3 more batches of peanut brittle since the sun was shining. ;) We ordered salads for supper & by the time I got home the couch & a Christmas movie was awesome! I watched "The Bridge"... not realizing part 2 isn't going to be showing until NEXT Christmas. What the heck??!! :rolleyes:
Now I'm off to try to catch up a little! Everyone, have a Marvelous Monday!!!
Happy Monday Holiday...sounds like a great weekend! Have a great day!

Merry Monday, SnowflakeMom!
Hope that you have a wonderful day =)
 
Good Morning MMC !!!

typical chilly morning here. Back from doctors office and I can go back to work next week, but only 4 hour days, but at least it is back to work !
Going to work on the bread today see how many batches we can get done.
Hope you all have a fantastic day. !!!
 
Good Morning/Afternoon Snowflake22...We had a fun day out seeing santa and the girls told santa that we don't have a chimney and he said a magic fireplace appears when he comes to our house...The girls said just like the movie The Santa Clause lol:)
That is SO cute!!

 
Good evening everyone

Horrible evening here with a storm battering us. Flooding everywhere

How your all having a great day
Praying you all stayed safe!!!

 
Thank you for the tip! Unfortunately, a search on Walmart's online store isn't showing them at all ... and there are none in the local stores. CVS has Ferrara chocolate oranges, but Terry's is better! I can get Lindt's "Intense Orange" dark chocolate bars, but they don't have milk chocolate and they're available year-round, so they don't count as a Christmas treat. I wonder why the Terry's chocolate oranges have disappeared from our shelves?
Well that's a bummer. Is this what you are looking for?

Good Morning, CS~
Happy Monday!
Glad to hear that you can go back to work next week.
Hope you have a nice day!
 
I'm glad you had a blast!!! How many houses did you go too?
Thanks! We went to three, it was very festive! ;)
Two of our friends had to bow out. Which was okay-we missed them, but I don't know how we could've made it to all of them and still visited as much!

I am not sure how we did so many before! Ha!
Or how you do, for that matter :p
 
Merry Monday!! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Typical day for me of working. Tonight we have my daughter's end of the year soccer party at a local pizza place. I finished almost all my shopping on Saturday. Now I just need to wrap. My hubby and I took next Monday off to finish off some last minute shopping and we go out to lunch. Have a good day!

** CHRISTMAS SEASON DAY 25 **



Good Morning, Folks.
Thus, we begin the start of the next-to-the-last week before Christmas Week.
The long journey is nearing its final stages, my Friends!

Days to Christmas Day: 18
Barely over 2 1/2 weeks left, now!


Not bad here yesterday, weather-wise. Plenty of sun, no rain or wind and temps above the usual seasonal chill.
Today has dawned clear again, with our thermometer reading 49 degrees.


Have a Marvelous Monday, Everyone.
(And how about those 12-0 Panthers!)
Thanks Crown! The count is so close now and the Panthers undefeated streak continues!
