Christmas Countdown - 2016

[Bradmac]

Good Thursday morning, my Christmas friends!

I spent the whole afternoon at the doctor's office with Jacob yesterday. I'm pretty sure they forgot we were in the exam room. Finally, a nurse stuck her head in, looked a little shocked, and we were seen quickly thereafter. LOL

I see the Powerball was won. Thank goodness! I wouldn't want all that money, anyway....yeah, I said it!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Good evening,

I am losing steam fast so I will make this quick.
I only got one tree down, the little 3 foot tree in the window. The snow falling this morning made it feel too Christmassy to take them all down. Oh well I get a few more days to enjoy them
Back to work tomorrow.

Goodnight, everyone

I know what you mean! Last night on the way home from work, I saw houses that had been dark for a week or more now had their Christmas lights on again. I wondered why, and Mr. nailed it ... we had a little snow Tuesday night, and that made people want to turn on their lights again! I was late getting home last night, so it was a treat to see so many lights again.

My wife and were talking earlier tonight and we both said the last two weeks have been the longest two weeks ever.

They sure have, agreed!

Wait until February ... ugh ...

Merry Morning!
Hope you all have an easy going Thursday! Not sure where this week has gone. It's been non stop.

Thank you! An easygoing Thursday sounds good to me!
Happily, it's been busy enough this week to keep time moving, but not busy enough to be rushed and hectic. A happy medium.

Haha! He always supports his friends!

That he does!

 

[snowflake22]

Good morning everyone.
With MLK Day on Monday, I'm ready for a long weekend! We are almost there. Have a great Thursday!

Good morning, friend!!
Happy Friday Eve to you!
Hope you have a fantastic day!

 

[MerryCarey]

I'm still considering putting mine back up. LOL

I pulled out a little table-top tree (maybe a foot high) and put a string of mini-LEDs on it and set it next to a little snowman. I put it in the TV room where I can see it in the evening, until the days get longer.

 

[MerryCarey]

Good Morning (Afternoon) Festive!

Absolutely not a problem at all! It was my pleasure. Anytime! LOL

Things should be quiet around here today so I can take advantage of it be listening to the albums and digitizing them while I work.

Now that sounds like a cheery workday! I hope your albums are in great condition, as advertised.

Bummer...
I guess I have to go to work today, too.

Sorry, Buddy. I know how much you were looking forward to being my personal assistant. Lol!!

Or was it just that cabin on the lake?

Xx

Hope all is okay with Jacob. It is frustrating to wait so long like that.
Hope you have a wonderful day! =)

True. We will really be itching for Spring!!

Good morning everyone.

Thanks!
I'm looking forward to a three-day weekend, too, unless something comes up (like last year) that requires work Monday. Trying to keep my thoughts from wandering in that direction, 'cause there are things I'd like to do at home, and the weekends aren't long enough!

Merry vignettes like that do wonders for your soul. Enjoy!

Lol, I like my job. It would just be nice to have that option of going back to bed a bit longer, and working when it fits my schedule!

I still want that cabin by the lake!
Someday!

Good morning, MMC!

I wanted to pop in and wish everyone a merry day! Off to make more coffee, eat breakfast and then back to work for me. It is going to be a good day. And a MERRY one, too!

Be safe!

It's great to see you, Meceka!! Stay safe up there!!

I definitely get that. Even with that kind of money, it would be a drag to spend the rest of your lifetime trying to stay away from scammers and trying to separate those who really need help from those with sob stories. I think I'd be more comfortable with something in the neighborhood of $25K---enough to make a few modest household improvements, take a vacation, and contribute to retirement savings.

Thanks!
It's also sitting next to our "music unit" (turntable/cassette player/CD player), so it's an enticement to digitize some Christmas LPs!

Exactly! It's sometimes fun the think about what I would do with unlimited funds, but in reality, big money seems to bring big trouble to families. I joke around about winning the lotto, but I wouldn't do anything to risk what I have now!
