Christmas Countdown - 2016

[Edge612]

Good Sunday Morning MMC! Well I guess I had a little bit of the PCB'S finally last evening. I just felt a little bored though and maybe that's why I got them? It wasn't that bad though. Years ago I used to get them far worse. MMC helps a lot in really keeping those away. Plus to be honest (and please nobody throw things at me for saying this) but I actually feel ready to go back to work. I feel like that I've been off a month and I really do like where I work, the people I work with, etc. I'm not dreading it and I'm looking at it as exciting to begin a new year being at work basically every week for the next 50 weeks and how each week I go to work it's just a journey back to our favorite time of year. Time goes so fast that I don't even want to rush it because it goes so fast as it is that it's scary. I'm gonna watch the Jets today to see if we can win to get in the playoffs.
I hope you guys have a great SUNDAY as most of us go back to our routines tomorrow. Think about all the fun we've had and all the fun we'll have throughout the whole year here!

Merry Sunday!
I am leaving for work shortly and I have no idea why I am so down hearted this morning. I can't seem to shake it even though I remind myself of everything positive. The boys are sad and don't want me to leave them today - which makes it worse! They must be feeling the same way about returning to school etc.
These feelings will subside as the day progresses though. The first day back to routine after Christmas is hard for all of us. It will get better. So much to look forward to and to be thankful for.

Have a good day everyone. View attachment 18159

(((Hugs)))
It will get better!
Hope you all have a wonderful day

Oh No I just remembered today is the last day for Christmas24 movie channel!!

I remember coming down the stairs on the first morning of the switch over and tuning in. It's a moment I have come to look forward to each year. Seeing the little Christmas24 logo was so exciting. Like I had opened a door to a Christmas world. I always look forward to that day so much - it sparks the season for me!

Anyway just 10 months till they switch back!

It is tough, and I know the feeling!
(((Hugs)))
Hallmark stopped their movies for us on New Year's Day.

Good Morning, Folks.

Well, we got back late last night, so I am able to post today's count numbers:
Days to the Season: 315
Days to Christmas Day: 357

And wonder of wonders, as of tomorrow, we will be down to just TWO WEEKS until the first Milestone of 2016, the 300-day Season Window!
(And this wonder is courtesy of our Christmas Season 2016 count silently running all during Christmas Season 2015.)

THANKS once again to Brent for covering for me yesterday. And on such short notice, too.
(Don't we have the most fantastically devoted members here!)


Well, we have decidedly entered winter territory now with a low this morning of 36 degrees. And while the high today is supposed to reach the mid 50's, tomorrow's may barely rise above 40, with temps in the 20's expected shortly.
(Well, hey. It is January after all!)

You have a Sensational Saturday, Everyone!

Thank you, Crown!
We sure do!!
Hope you have a blessed Sunday!
Go Pack, Go!!

Well, today I begin my fun annual Christmas post-script activity of looking for hold-out holiday decorations on my neighborhood walks and making my predictions on which ones will be the last to come down.
(Helps to make the walk more interesting and moderate the post-holiday blues a bit!)

Agreed! We do the same, we counted 30 houses in our neighborhood last night. Hope they stay up for quite some time.

Sending hugs & prayers your way

You're welcome, Crown. It is always a fun time to lead the count. Glad you made it back safe!

well I did it, the tree is wrapped up and ready for another year of storage...

we are moving all the way across the parking lot ! LOL...live in a townhouse and we are downsizing, will now be in a 2 bedroom unit. The one we are going to will be totally redone inside before we move in so will be very nice.

First I'm sorry about the pack up of your lovely Christmas, but so excited for you for the coming year and new decorating layout!! :-D

LOL Say now... that is quite a trek of a move! Hope you enjoy it with less area to have to clean. LOL

I am really missing Hallmark, I've had it on for the past 2+ months.

I saved a bunch on the dvr, but it's just not the same!

Same here. I usually run my provider's live feed app on my tablet while I work and the first morning I tuned in to no Hallmark Christmas movies was so disappointing. I headed over to Amazon Prime where I had items saved to watch, but the lack of live feed made it palpable that the season was coming to an end publicly. :-(

Thanks! Are the Packers definitely in the Playoffs?

Yep!!
Going to be an exciting rivalry game tonight, too.

Thank you so much Snowflake!
