Christmas Countdown - 2016

[Holiday]

Back in the office today after the holiday yesterday (Patriots Day; some Massachusetts offices close that day; it commemorates Lexington and Concord, and the Boston Marathon is run that day). The holiday was so nice---every Monday should be so nice! Did some preliminary work on a Christmas project. Lighter traffic today because it's a school vacation week. It'll make the commute a little easier.

Hope your 1st day back to work after a 3 day weekend goes well!! xx

Half day might be the reason!

I try not to put the a/c on till Memorial Day. One year I remember we didn't even put it on till late June! But that was real late.

We never make it out of April w/o the AC going on. Especially at the lake. The trailer heats up quickly!

 

[Holiday]

Praying your mom does well with the surgery!

Thanks so much Brad!! xx Me too! xx

Having said that, though ... the office is SO cold most summer days, I love to step out into the heat just to get the chill off my bones!

I know how you feel. That's how my office is.

 

[Edge612]

Good luck with your catch up week! Have a good Tuesday!

Thanks! It's my only chance.

Late morning today but I finally made it. Tuesday is worse than a Monday for me.

I thought Tuesday was a lesser evil version of Monday?

Good Tuesday morning, my Christmas friends!

Tax Season is officially behind us! Nancy's office will be closed Friday and Monday for a long weekend. I'm taking off Friday to take her shopping, and spend some time together in Savannah. It's been a few months since I've been there.

I was in the yard yesterday afternoon, just enjoying the weather. I decided to add some water to the pool so I could start running the pump to clear it up. Fast-forward to 6:30 this morning: I went outside for my morning walk and heard the water running. It had run for at least 12 hours, and the yard was flooded around the pool. Great. LOL

I hope y'all have a great day!

Oh Brad - that's not a good way to start the day!! I hope your day has been improving from there!
I bet Nancy is extra happy tax season is behind her!! And I bet you're happy about that too. Enjoy your time in Savannah & the time off work!
Have a Merry Tuesday!

Good morning MMC! Merry Tuesday! We made it through Monday!

Mom has to have a tooth removed today! Hoping & praying that goes well. It's considered oral surgery, so she will have to be sedated. Mom does not do well with anesthesia! Always makes her sick. Hopefully she doesn't have any issues & all goes well! xx

Not much else going on around here today. So far it's cloudy & nearly 60º. Hoping the sun comes out later so I can take my convertible to do some loafing after work! Also hoping to plant garden after loafing.

Have a wonderful Tuesday MMC!

Merry Tuesday, Holiday!
Super cute pic of Gracie!! Love it!
Keeping your Mom in my thoughts & prayers today~
Hope the oral surgery goes well, and she doesn't have any side effects.
Hope you see some sunshine, too!
Have a great day!
xx

Last Saturday, I ran in a 5K called the Puddle Jump. It goes to benefit the elementary school my kids went to and is in memory of a kindergarten teacher that passed 6-7 years ago. I ran it in just under 29 min. Pictured from left to right is me with my daughter, me with the Mrs, me with my sister and then my whole group. The Mrs and my sister walked at a quicker pace than my other two good friends and daughter (my daughter is still recovering from irritating her growth plate in her knee). This was the first year since my daughter started participating in it 5 years ago that we weren't freezing our ears off!! It was a fun and beautiful day.

Congrats...how awesome. Those are great pics! Have a great Tuesday!

You're welcome

She is having a rough morning, she was up most of the night & not feeling well. Not sure if it's being back on Flurosemide, her stomach, heart, or what. She seems to have an upset of discomfort, then runs to me for comfort. Hopefully when I check in with Adi later this morning, she'll be feeling better.
Thank you for asking

Happy Tuesday Snowflake...sorry to hear about Har!!

Good morning fellow Christmas fans. My second day filling in for the legendary Crown. We must be a day closer to the Christmas season now. Let's take a look at the numbers this morning.

Days to the Season: 208
Days to Christmas Day: 250

And look at that. We are a week away from back-to-back milestones hitting including the big 200 day to Christmas season marker. Also note this morning we are now halfway from 300 to 200 with the days to Christmas Day! If time keeps going this fast my friends I may have to start getting my decorations ready before we know it!

Have a Terrific Tuesday everyone!

Thanks, Edge!! Great job on the countdown...amazing how fast the numbers are dwindling!

Have a good day Holiday!! Love the pic of Gracie!

Good morning everyone, Happy Tuesday!
It's going to be sunny today with a high of 68 degrees. My youngest has off today, no school, work or jury duty! We're going to take a ride to the outlets this afternoon to do some shopping. The weather will be perfect to walk around out there.
Hope everyone is well and has a nice day <3

Enjoy the outlets! Have a good day..

It was drizzling here this morning when I woke up. April showers...

Wishing you a blessed and cozy day as well!

Hope the rain goes away, and the sun comes out.
Thank you, praying tonight is better. She wasn't feeling well this morning either, poor girl.
Hope you & Maggie had a better night <3
How did she do with her meds today?

Thank you for the thoughts & prayers for Mom! Her surgery is scheduled for - right now! xx
Actually, that is not Gracie - it's a picture I found online, but it sure looks like her....Gracie would probably let that on for approx. 2.2 seconds. LOL!
Have a great day my friend!

 

[snowflake22]

Thank you! She just had a clogged ear. We were in & out of the office & she could hear again! Worked out well! I took her (and Mom) on a small tour of the lake, showed Emma our trailer. Went out to eat that the Tavern that's just down the road from our trailer. I think they both enjoyed it!

That's good news, glad she's feeling better!
Sounds like a fun afternoon!!

Hope all you wonderful people have a powerful Tuesday!

Hope YOU have a fabulous day, too!
