Christmas Countdown - 2015

[Holiday]

Good Morning, Folks.

Well, here we are.
Single Digits away from our first Milestone of 2015.

Days to the Season: 309
Days to Christmas Day: 351

(That Milestone being the 300-day Season Window, of course.)


Brutally cold weather here, for NC.
We are at 13 frigid degrees right now.
BRRRRRR!
At least there is no wind.
Fortunately, it is not predicted to last long.
(Whew!)


Well, whatever your weather, try to have a Thrilling Thursday, my Friends!

Wew - it's frigid everywhere. Stay warm Crown!

Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

It was just under 20° this morning, and windy. Very a-typical for this area, for sure! I was out late last night filling to pool to a level high enough to run so the pump would freeze and get damaged. I didn't realize the water level had dropped. I hope I don't have a leak! If I do, it's very small.

Nancy stayed at the hospital last night with her mom, so I didn't get much sleep. but, she'll be home in a few hours, so I can sleep tonight.

We have a high of 38° here today, then a warming trend back up to the mid-50's by Sunday. That's better!

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Safe travels to Nancy! Hope you don't have a leak! Hope Mrs. Hilda is doing well! Have a great day Brad!

The temps weren't as bad as some of you this morning: -2F when I left for work. Too cold to suit me! At least we aren't expecting much snow---maybe a coating overnight and a couple of snow showers tomorrow.

I'm already looking forward to the weekend. Except for Monday, the first day back after New Year's, the workdays have been 9+ hours, and next week is shaping up to be a busy one. I'm glad the business is doing well, but it cuts into my leisure time. I got so spoiled over the holidays! cheesy

We are supposed to get some snow tonight too! Then more on Sunday & Monday!! COLD Friday & Saturday!! Hope work slows down a little for you - everybody needs some leisure time!

Good morning, friends! It's currently 1F here, feels like -20F. The kids had a 2 hour delay this morning.

I'm off to catch a nap! I'll be back later. Hope you all have a great day!! Stay warm and safe!

Happy Thursday everyone! Hope y'all are staying warm! It's a chilly 22F right now, but we are going to get up into the mid 40's which is spring break weather! Have a great day everyone and try to stay warm!

Good Morning, MMC!!!!!! It's just downright frigid here this morning. We have made it up to -4 but the windchill is still -30. Holy cow!!! I went out to start mom's car and let it run for a few minutes and even with being all bundled up, I still couldn't fill my fingers and toes when I came back in. Not a lot going on for me today. I'm still feeling pretty fun down. So just going to try and get some more rest. I'll also keep the laundry going to help keep it warm in here. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!

Get better quick made!! Stay inside - OUT of the cold!!

Sounds like a nice night!!! Stay warm, Holiday!!!!!



LOL!!!! Well now it's a banana popsicle!!! Do you have any chocolate or peanut butter to dip it in?

Nope...DARN! Lol

Holiday - Cheddar bread and plum wine sounds so delicious! Hope you have a nice evening warm and cozy out of the cold!

It was delicious! Hope you have a warm & cozy night too!

Brrrrrrrr.... 6 degrees F (base temperature) in Central Maryland this morning, I about froze nubs off, and that was getting out of the bed. I can't put it into words, just how painful it was to come out from under those nice warm covers this morning....It has got to be one of the coldest temperatures that we have seen in a long while around here.

A perfect day to stay in bed....

:lol: I agree! Crazy cold!!! Stay warm & have a great day!

School was on a two hour delay this morning. It was 10 degrees in the car. DH built the first fire of the season in our wood stove last night. DH & I wore layers today to work & school. I hope DH stays warm too, I didn't see what he put on this morning, but he does have a heavy work coat if he has to work out of the office. It's not supposed to get above freezing until Saturday afternoon.

DH will take DD to drum lessons tonight, so I'll have about an hour to get things done at home alone.

Stay warm!

Stay warm!!! Hubby had his Cabela "long johns" on this morning!!! Brrrr

I saw a recipe for that in Taste of Home magazine this morning. It looked pretty good to me, but I've never baked bread in my life. I want to give it a try.

Dangerous food! :lol::lol:

:lol:
The recipe I made was from Taste Of Home - I saw it online. They had a couple of them - this one didn't use yeast. I do want to try one of them that uses yeast! :smile:

It was 3:30 a few weeks back!

Happy Thursday everyone! Hope y'all are staying warm! It's a chilly 22F right now, but we are going to get up into the mid 40's which is spring break weather! Have a great day everyone and try to stay warm!

Happy Thursday Dawg!

Good morning MMC! Can you say BRRRRRRRRRR! My car said MINUS 8º this morning on my way to work. Wind chill nearly -30! School is cancelled ~ shouldn't work be cancelled too??? Hmmmm!!!



After I got home from Mom/Dads yesterday I never left home again. It was just wicked outside!!! I made a new recipe for Cheddar Bread - it was ok. Hubby & I had a glass of Brown County Plum wine. It was pretty tasty ~ not my favorite, but it was pretty good. Lol! I tried to watch The Thanksgiving House, but friends were busy texting & I missed much of it! I'll have to watch again. I have seen bits & pieces before but never the whole thing.



Anyway....I'm going back to reading posts. You all have a marvelous day. Stay warm!

What a night! Busy & fun! =]

The Thanksgiving house is a really good show, hope you like it.

Stay warm & have a great afternoon!

Agreed! I'd love to crawl under some cover now.
It's freezing here, too.
And snowing more than they expected.
Brrr! [emoji300]️[emoji301]️

I know, it's so hard to go back to work after lunch especially when it's warm where you came from [emoji169]

Yes! That is so what I meant!! [emoji4]

I could always stay home after lunch, but it's even harder to come back when it's so cold outside! Lol! Gracie always wants me to stay with her. :smile: This darn work thing....it's something about making money ~ paying bills. Hmmmm cheesy
