Christmas Countdown - 2016

[MerryCarey]

Good Morning, MMC!!!! I'm reporting in from a whiteout. The snow is coming down in heavy white flakes and the wind is blowing it everywhere. I'm glad I don't have to go out in it. Not to much on my agenda for today. Just going to be doing some cleaning and trying to stay warm. I hope everyone is having a GREAT DAY and Stays Safe out there!!!!!

Enjoy the snow and keep warm!
We're expecting a coating to an inch tonight.

I sure miss snow days! Enjoy yours to the full!
When the weather makes it too treacherous to commute, I have to work from home. Not the same as a real snow day!

Snow days were the best...if we got like 2 or 3 a winter. But a couple of years we used like 10 lol and it was fun but when we lost spring break it wasn't so fun.

Good Tuesday Morning MMC! Well on my daily run at 5:30 AM on work days this morning I saw dark houses the first few blocks. I started to think maybe that was it for Christmas lights. However, the 2nd half of my run I saw several houses lit up! Even a few houses that weren't lit on Monday that I figured were done had their lights on this morning! I'm glad to see it on January 12th. Not sure how much longer it will last but it definitely is helping keep away any January blues. We will receive some snow showers this afternoon but nothing more than a coating at worst. It would have been nice if we could have had that on Christmas Eve but maybe this year .
I hope you all have a great day MMC as we're already a dozen days into 2016!

That's so awesome that you are still seeing lights. It's all dark around here. Boooo! Have a great day Edge!

Good morning, Happy Tuesday!
I'm watching the news and relaxing with a cup of coffee. Everyone will be waking up soon so I need to get started on breakfast in a few minutes. My oldest is starting a new job today at a laser skin care and aesthetics center. They are one of the top rated centers on Long Island, she's really excited that she got in there. I hope she loves it, fingers crossed!
I have a few errands to run today, I have to return something at Kohls. I also need to pick up pill pockets for Maggie at the pet store and stop at the supermarket for a few things. Other than that I'll be working on my daily chores and squeezing a workout in at some point. That's about it for me.
I hope everyone is well and has a nice day!

Good luck to your daughter today. I hope she loves it there!!! Enjoy your day!

Good morning everyone. The weather here is very windy and a little snowy. Not a lot of snow, but it looks great. Also, enough snow to cause the area schools, including the where I teach, to close for the day! Looking forward to a nice relaxing snow day!

Nice!!! Enjoy your day off. Schools here are all closed too. Lucky ducks!

Good Morning, Six Day Till'ers.

<< "Six Day Till'ers", Crown?? >>
Yep. We are but six days away from the opening Milestone of the Christmas Season 2016 count!

Days to the Season: 306
Days to Christmas Day: 348

And indeed the numbers tell us that we are now inside one week to go to the 300-day Season Milestone Marker.
(Moving right along!)


Rather chilly here yesterday but with plenty of sun and not much wind.
Warmer today before we again "chill-out" tomorrow.
Our back door thermometer tells me we stand at 30 degrees here, currently.


Have a Terrific Tuesday, Everyone!

Thanks crown! Have a great day!

Hello everyone. Work has been crazy busy. I miss you all.
I'm traveling to western Oklahoma today, which I love (I get to see the mountains down that way and the buffalo ).
Have a great day!

Safe travels today Ryan. Enjoy the scenery!!! Have a great day!

Good Tuesday morning, my Christmas friends!

We took Elizabeth to dance class last night, and while she was dancing, we met with Jacob's best friend's mom for dinner. Her husband passed away last year, so she's raising her son by herself. but she's remarkably strong and self-reliant. She and Nancy are planning some more senior events for the boys' last year of high school.

I have to take Elizabeth to get her learner driving permit tomorrow. How can she be that old?!?

It's still cold down here! It was 26°F again this morning with a hard frost. I had the presence of mind to crank my truck earlier this morning, though.

I hope y'all have a great day!

Good luck to Elizabeth! (and to you!!) Enjoy the cooler temps!! Have a great day!!

 

[Holiday]

Woohoo! Enjoy the snow!
Happy Tuesday, Holiday!

Thanks! Happy Tuesday to you!!!

Yep and seeing my tree lit each evening has been fun too.

 

[Edge612]

Bring on our half an inch of snow! Bring it mother nature! I shouldn't egg her on or I may wind up with a foot of snow soon lol.

Awesome! I'm still enjoying my sunroom tree too. And the other lights & snowmen in the rooms. So cozy!

Like you wouldn't enjoy a foot of snow!!!

It's snowing really hard again! My boss' son is outside blowing our parking lot open...he just came in & said this snow is ruining all his hard work! (I LOVE IT!!!)

 

[Edge612]

Like you wouldn't enjoy a foot of snow!!!

Maybe if it happens on a Saturday and I can stay home and play in it!

And that'll make running awful interesting, especially when people don't shovel their sidewalks. An issue I've ran into lately

Snow days were the best...if we got like 2 or 3 a winter. But a couple of years we used like 10 lol and it was fun but when we lost spring break it wasn't so fun.

I still remember my favorite snow day. They were late making the decision to close; I walked to school, and when I got to my homeroom, the books we had ordered from Scholastic Book Services had come in, so they passed them out. A few minutes later they announced that those who walked to school could go home, and that they would be taking the bus-riding students back home. So I got a snow day with three brand new books to devour!
