Good evening,

I have spent a lot of time tonight on the Fun & Games boards, the wife was watching "Twilight" again. (Thanks, ABCFamily) It was F&G or rub onion juice into my eyes. cheesy

I think I have spent more time here the last 2 days than the last 3 weeks of December combined. It is so good to be home.

Heading for bed in a few, sugarplums will still be dancing in my head.

Goodnight, my friends.

LOL!!!! I don't blame you for not wanting to watch that!!!

Goodnight, Xmas!!!!!!

She sounds like she was such a wonderful person, Buddy. I'm sad that I never got a chance to meet her.

I know it's been difficult and that tomorrow will be even worse but know that my prayers are constantly flowing your way and that I'm here for you.

I'm hoping the weather forecast is wrong and that you don't get the snow and ice. Especially the ice. I hope the roads aren't to bad if you do.

Goodnight, Buddy!!!!! I hope you sleep tonight!!!!! Praying for you.

Thank you so much, buddy.
You would've loved her!

You were missed!

It has been a very difficult night, and we are all exhausted.
But at the same time it was lovely to hear all the wonderful things being said about Dorothy. So many people adored her. Not only were there friends and family there, but pretty much everyone that she ever met, she had a magical effect on [emoji173]️truly beautiful.

Hope you all enjoy the rest of your night.

We are now expecting snow and ice tonight, and I have a long trip back & forth to Tomah tomorrow, then home to Eau Claire.

Goodnight.

Morning Stacey, it sounds like it passed well. I hope you all are coping and taking a little comfort in the beautiful life Dorothy lived and her ability to touch so many.

It is so hard to let go and accept that someone you love is no longer present. She is there is your hearts, your memories and the footprints of her life will always be there.

Thinking of you and Adi and the rest of your family today. Hang in there , you all will pull through this.

Merry Morning!

Hope you all had a good night. I ended up watching The Sound of Music and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof - two of my favourite films. Then I watched Netflix till very late, didn't go to bed till around 2am!

No plans today. We have some things we need to return but I really can't be bothered today! I think I will just stay in and do some baking. I will be in work tomorrow and from Monday I will be swamped. Better enjoy the last of the holidays today in that case

Have a wonderful weekend all! First one of 2015!

Praying for your father's recovery and health HMG. It is very hard when our parents are ill, I understand how worrying it is.

Glad to hear you had a fun date night and everything else is well. Take care.

Thanks so much, buddy.
We really appreciate it, the outpouring of love & support has been amazing.

It looks like we got the 3 inches of snow, and ice underneath. At least it's on my windshield. Not the best timing, I will just have to leave much earlier.

Love ya back!

Good Morning, Folks.

The first weekend of 2015 has arrived in style.

So have today's count numbers:
Days to the Season: 314
Days to Christmas Day: 356

And thanks to the depth of the Season, we find ourselves already down to just two weeks until the 300-day Season Window opens to reveal the first of our 200's level count numbers.
<< So soon, Crown? >>
So soon, indeed.

A bit warmer yesterday (50's) but still a little chilly as we didn't get much sun.
Today has started out damp after some rain overnight.
We are at 46 degrees now, here in the capital city.

Have a Sensational Saturday, Everyone!

Thank you CAH! Date night was fun, we went to my favorite gluten free Italian restaurant. I had penne ala vodka and a cannoli for dessert, so yummy!
My father has bronchitis, I worry because my parents are getting older now. But he's taking his medicine and he's doing alright. Thank you so much for asking.

That dessert does sound yummy!

There was a Hallmark next to the restaurant that we went to so I had to stop in. I picked up a couple of boxes of half off Christmas cards. I found cards with a picture of a vintage Santa Claus on them, I just had to get them. I also picked up this little Yorkie figurine for five bucks. I really have to stop going in that store!
