Christmas Countdown - 2015

[snowflake22]

Good Afternoon, Everyone!!! It's going to be a rainy day here and thankfully the temps have died off some too. Mom had another doctors appointment this morning. It just resulted in more tests and more appointments being scheduled. The fun never ends. Now I've swung by my aunts to get a few things done on the computer again. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY!!!!!!

Good afternoon, buddy~
Glad it's cooled down some!
Sorry to hear about more tests & appointments.
(((Hugs)))
Enjoy the time at your Aunt's!

Have a great day!

Thanks snowflake! The town my husband drives UPS in ~ their town cops have advised everyone to stay in their homes. The roads are not safe for travel. My niece lives there & had to evacuate her house earlier this morning - she went to higher ground. It's about 12 miles from here. Crazy rain!!!

When I went to check the basement, it would have been so easy to stay home! cheesy

Wow very scary....please stay safe!!

What a great photo of your Dad!! [emoji173]️
And what a wonderful smile!

(((Hugs)))

Well, the moment is upon us. What started off 9 months ago concludes tomorrow morning.

Our little girl will come.

A lot of nervous energy...nerves are pretty much shot. I'm sure you all remember the worries...I'm having all of those. We have to be at the hospital in 5 hours and 30 minutes, but I don't think I will be sleeping.

I'm ready, but scared all at the same time. But it is the best kinda scared I can imagine.

I will be back soon. Hopefully, I will get to check in at some point.

If you don't mind, prayers and good vibes are appreciated.

So excited for you guys! Lots of prayers coming your way! Can't wait to eventually see some pictures!

Good evening,



I am up later than I want to be, like usual, but it was busy around here cleaning up the house, mowing the lawn, and JP's ball game.



Tomorrow is JP's 4th grade graduation, middle school starts at 5th grade so it is a big deal as he starts a new school next year.



I will be going in to work later so I won't miss it, but I won't get home until after 930pm at the earliest.



I need to get some shuteye, it will be a long day tomorrow.



Goodnight, everyone.





Here is my favorite Jethro Tull Christmas song, my wife loves this one too.

Good morning!
Happy Pines Day!
Not too much going on here today, just working on some chores around the house this morning. I think I'm going to do some Fathers Day shopping this afternoon. I also decided I'm going to invite family over for brunch on Sunday so I need to work on a menu plan. I have lots of cleaning to do too. I kind of let the house go this past week, I'm sure that will keep me busy the next few days. That's about it for me. I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!

Good afternoon, HMG! Sounds like your Fathers Day plans will be great. Hope you're having a great day!

Good Morning everyone!!!



Well little league season came to end last week. That only leaves the hubby playing softball for a few more weeks. My kids are done school tomorrow and my daughter's 8th grade graduation dance is tonight ... sniff ... cant believe my little girl is going into high school. Time sure does go by fast.



The other night I scored 2 indoor animated christmas reindeer on an facebook yard sale site. They are pretty big too and I cant wait to use them this year.



Have a great day!!!

Hope your kids enjoy their last day of school, as well as your daughter enjoying her dance!

Hope you're having a great day!

Good Wednesday morning, my Christmas friends!

What an evening I had yesterday! I took Jacob to his guitar lesson, and went to Wal-Mart to pickup a few things. That's where I went wrong.

Elizabeth's phone is one of the Straight-Talk deals where you buy a monthly card at Wal-Mart. Anyway, they scanned this card 4 times at 3 different registers before they realized that their internet connection to Straight-Talk was down, so it wouldn't "authorize" the card. In the meantime, Wal-Mart had charged my debit card 4 times!! They reimbursed me for three of them, and they thought the 4th was automatically reimbursed. But when I got home to check my account, it wasn't returned to me. So, I have to go back to Wally World again today. Hopefully, they won't give me any trouble. Grrrr.

I hope y'all have a great day! cheesy

Good afternoon, Brad! Sorry to hear you had so much trouble yesterday at Wal-Mart, but hopefully it all worked out.

Hope you're having a great day!

Good Morning, Fellow Voyagers.

Sailing on, we now find that we are only 9 days off from the 50 percent marker to Christmas Day 2015.
SINGLE DIGITS!

Days to the Season: 149
Days to Christmas Day: 191


Well, we did it yesterday.
Hit 100 degrees. (100.8 to be exact.)
The weather service says we should reach 100 again tomorrow with today being a cool 97, as our bone dry weather continues.
We stand just half a degree short of 80 here at this hour in the capital city.


But now the good news, straight from the camel's mouth at the Shispering Pines.
In light of the weather, Carl is holding a pool-side party at our resort of choice this evening. Along with the usual entertainment, fired twinkies and sweet southern iced tea, we are promised a dunking contest with his truly volunteering to be one of the dunkees.
(There is a rumor floating about that Carl has rigged the platform not to fall when he's on it, but it's just a rumor. Carl wouldn't do that..........would he?)
Regardless, it should be another fine evening at the S.P. Hope to see you there!


In the meantime, you have a Wonderful Wednesday, OK?

Thanks Crown! Hope you're having a great day!

Good morning, everyone!



I have tried to visit while teaching the past few days, but it seems that I keep having some issues connecting to MMC from the school board. Very strange. Either way, I am home today. Today is the last day of classes, so not many teachers can take it off as they have their final reviews before exams. It's hard to believe that the school year is almost complete. I had my final day of teaching yesterday, which was very nice. I still have one more day, however. They asked me to come in to supervise for the day on Friday. It will be a nice way for me to end the (working) school year. I get to attend the Grade 12 graduation next Wednesday.



Speaking of graduation... Congratulations to our good friend, coach, who should be welcoming in his daughter sometime in the very near future! I, like everyone else, am very excited to hear the news!



Well, it's the final 'Pines Day before the officially beginning of summer. Yet another wondrous feat lies ahead. As Crown said, we should all be very cautious of Carl. I, for one, am not going anywhere near that platform!



Have a great Wednesday, everyone! See you at the 'Pines tonight!

Good afternoon, Brent! Happy Pines Day!

Good morning MMC! Happy Hump/Pines Day!!! It sure is a wet one around here!!! We have a flood warning, some roads are closed. There is water sitting everywhere. For right now the rain has tapered off to just a sprinkle, but I think there is supposed to be more coming later. I ran home to check our basement & thankfully the sump pump is keeping up! xx The crawl space was dry too! xx Our garden is pretty much under water! Those weeds will grow like crazy now!!! It would have been an awesome day to stay home & watch a CHRISTMAS MOVIE! cheesy



Have a great day everyone!!!

Good afternoon, Holiday! Prayers for safety and hope there isn't too much more rain.

Hope you're having a great day!

This showed up this morning on my FB page as a memory from 3 years ago today...it's my Dad at the lake on Fathers Day! :smile: The neighbor dog in the back ground is with him in heaven too!

What a great memory for you! So sweet!

Happy Wednesday! I have been trying to catch up my brother and his fam are up from NC so I have not had time to jump online. They are gone now and hitting the rest of the New England states and will be back on Sunday.

Hope you are all doing well. Keeping everyone in my prayers!

Yesterday we got some sad news that a boy in my daughter's class (she is in 7th grade), his father committed suicide. My heart breaks for his family and especially the son. I think it is hard enough to be 12/13 and then to have to deal with this.

Have a great day and will definitely check in later.

Good afternoon, SnowflakeMom! Such such news about this boy's dad and for his entire family. Prayers for them.

Hope you're having a great day!
