Good evening,
Long, long, long day. We were in the car driving for over 8 hours today. I did 100% of the driving and I am exhausted. I will NEVER drive to the Bronx again, it was one of the worst driving experiences of my life. Getting out of the city it took us 2 hours to go 30 miles. We now know Southern Boulevard quite well. It took 4 hours to get there and over 4 hours to get home due to traffic, it is a 140 mile trip one way. We left before 7am this morning, and just got home at 930 tonight.
The zoo itself is huge, we didn't see everything. It was sooo crowded, people were walking into us, we couldn't get to see a lot of the animals. We did see a beautiful Polar bear that Louanne would have just adored. I will post pictures soon.

So the roadtrips are done for this vacation, we nearly did 500 miles of driving, tomorrow is a rest day.

I need to head to sleep, the drive has taken every ounce of energy out of me.

Goodnight, everyone.

I'm so sorry you had such a stressful drive! You are brave ~ I would have no desire to drive through that. Makes me appreciate my little town that doesn't even have a stop light! I'm glad you stayed safe though & hopefully you had a great time while at the zoo, even though it was crowded! Looking forward to pics! Enjoy your relaxing day!!!!

Good morning, MMC!

Happy Friday Eve!!

Wishing you a blessed day~

Good Morning...Happy Friday Eve!! Not too much planned today the regular work stuff. I may go to a concert on our green tonight with my daughter we'll see if she wants to when she gets home from camp. Weather is beautiful....will be low 80's and no humidity!
Have a good day everyone! Keeping you all in my prayers!

The concert sounds like fun! Enjoy the weather & have a great day!!

Good Morning, Peerlessly Patient Post-Piners, Perpetually Peering Perilously Forward.
<< Forward to what, Crown? >>
To many things, little voice.
<< Such as? >>
To Weekend Eve.
To the Weekend itself.
To our next Milestone.
To Christmas Season 2015.
To CHRISTMAS DAY!

(Hey, what can I say?
We're all forward thinkers around here!)

The daily figures:
Days to the Season: 113
Days to Christmas Day: 155
And these figures reveal that we are now UNDER two weeks away from the 100-day Season Milestone and the start of our first double-digit count to the Season.
(Fantastic!)


Well, the H&H conditions moderated a bit yesterday and it was almost pleasant.
Should continue to improve over the next several days, with not an overly large chance of rain.
(Nice relief!)
We are at 77 degrees here, currently.


Have a Thrilling Thursday, as visions of Weekend Eve dance in your heads, Folks!

Thanks crown! Enjoy the awesome weather! Happy Friday Eve!

Mary eve of Christmas eve in July to you! ;-)

Well thank you!

I was telling you all about going to the trampoline park yesterday with my grandchildren. Here I am in mid air. What a heck of a workout, I was worn out when it was all over but ready to go back and play! Weeeeeeee!!! Ha ha!!!

How FUN!!!!

Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

I'm working a half-day today, then going to Savannah with Nancy for an appointment. I'm sure I'll have to go to the mall. I always have to go to the mall and stand around in Belk's or J.C. Penny's. Ugh. LOL

I went to Jim's shop for a little while yesterday. He's building a similar motor for another guy, but that guy has deeper pockets than I do. He bought some fancy alternator & A/C compressor brackets that I just can't afford. But, I bought some poster paper and traced the brackets. Now I'll get some scrap metal and cut my own brackets, then get them powdercoated. Lots cheaper!

I hope y'all have a great day!

I'm glad that guy decided to buy brackets so you could trace them!! Lol! Have a safe trip! Hope Nancy's apt goes well! Have a great day Brad!

Thank you!!!

We have one of those about an hour from us. My sister's youngest DD has had a couple of birthday parties there. I should be out there jumping with them, but I don't. I get worn out just watching them!

I listened to a little Christmas music on the way to work today. I needed a little pick-me-up.

Listening to Christmas music seems like a great thing to do while I start making cinnamon rolls on my lunch today!!! Have a great day Whitney!

Glad that you're having such beautiful weather!

Dinner with your family sounds really lovely, happy to hear that your meds kicked in and you were able to enjoy it so much.
It's hard to live far away from family, but such a blessing when you can get together & catch up.

Have a great visit with your Mom today

Hope you have a wonderful day!!

Thank you so much Snowflake!

Ahhhh - so is this where people really hang out and get to know each other??? I can't believe I've missed this thread! Now I'm gonna have to go back a little bit so I can feel like I've caught up. LOL

Good morning everyone, Happy Thursday!
It's going to be another beautiful day, sunny with a high of 84 degrees.
We had a really nice time at dinner last night. It was good to see my BIL & SIL, I miss them a lot since they moved down to Florida. I almost thought I wasn't going to make it because I had another migraine but thankfully my meds kicked in and I pulled myself together. We had a great time.
I never made it to Hallmark yesterday to pick up my ornament up so I'm going to do that today. And my mother is coming over to visit this afternoon so I'm looking forward to that.
That's about it for me. I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!

I'm glad your migraine went away enough that you could enjoy time with family. Will you be seeing them again before they head back to Florida? Have fun at Hallmark & enjoy the visit with your Mom. Have a great day! Enjoy the weather too!

Listened to the re-broadcast of the Santa Tracking on Kringle Radio on the way to work---really enjoyed that, hearing the elf reporters and the Christmas music! And it looks like another beautiful summer day here, so I'm getting the best of both seasons.

Thinking especially of Made and his mom, and Gracie and her "mom."

Awe ~ thank you MerryCarey! Appreciate that!
I will have to turn on Kringle Radio when the boss man leaves for lunch! He's taking a longer lunch today! Yay!!!
Have a great day!

 

[Holiday]

Thank you, Holiday!!
Hope you have a wonderful Friday eve, too!

So far so good! Boss #1 is off today & boss #2 is in a good mood ~ he's booking a hotel room & ordering tickets for a Buckeye game! Always puts him in a good mood. LOL! I hope you are having a wonderful Friday Eve too!

I found that it helped to put a bookmark in my home screen where the Tapatalk icon used to be. Tap---direct access to MMC!

I don't know how to do that, lol. But I will ask one of my girls to help me. Thank you MerryCarey!

 

[Holiday]

What time should I be over?!

Well, I'll let them rise this afternoon - roll them out & slice them after work, let them rise again...icing them... so probably 7:00 or so. I'm going to freeze them for the weekend, but I'll let you sample one or two!
