Christmas Countdown - 2016

[Holiday]

Good Wednesday Morning MMC! Happy Pines Day! Today is my brother's 34th birthday (the one in San Diego). Hard to believe how old we're all getting. It's a beautiful morning here almost feels like September! Lower temps than we've had and less humid. It's a sign of so many amazing mornings and days to come in the Bers. I plan on going to vision Rollins after work to check and see how he is doing. I hope he's doing better for his sake. As I said I didn't even know he was sick unless they told me had a little cough. Will see and let you guys know tonight any updates I get.
Have a great Wednesday/Pines Day everyone!

Praying you get all good news on Rollins today! Give him a hug from me 'n Gracie!

Morning everyone!! Definately staying darker longer in the mornings now. Today dawned warm and humid here. Took the boys to the playground after dinner last night. Everyone got to swing, but it was to hot to be enjoyable (dad mainly..lol)

Stay cool! Have a good day! I am disliking the shorter days already...

Good Morning, Mid-Weekers and 'Pines Anticipators.

Yes, Folks. It's Pines Day once again, and don't they seem to come so quickly?

But what's really moving fast is the pace of our count.
As proof, let's review today's numbers:
Days to the Season: 102
Days to Christmas Day: 144

Now, speaking of shock and awe, just look at that first number and gasp at the fact that as of THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW, we will arrive at the ONE HUNDRED DAY SEASON Milestone Marker and stand at the edge of a double-digit Season count.
(And you just know things will start to move faster after that --- they always do!)


It was actually a bit cooler yesterday, assisted in the early evening by a rather long and drawn-out rainstorm.
Today will likely be drier and it has started off here at 77 degrees.


Well, the Pines is ready.
Carl is waiting.
The iced tea is cool.
The fired twinkies are fresh.
And the staff eagerly awaits the chance to serve you.
We'll see you there but until then, you have a Wonderful Wednesday, Everybody!

See you tonight!

Wednesday will be Friday for me next week. Pizza on the deck sounds like fun!

Nice! Something to look forward too!
You can join us!

Good morning all. Just got back from work, gave the pups a few treats, got my first cup via extract of the bean, cane and cow and even hung up a wreath on my den/office door. It has one of those flickering battery operated candles in the middle. I guess it is really never too early.

Agree - never too early!! Have a great day!

 

[Holiday]

Thanks I will!

Good morning ~
Happy Pines Day!
It's going to be a nice day, sunny with a high of 80 degrees. I'm going to take a ride to the outlets with my youngest, she's looking for a birthday gift for her best friend. We'll probably stop for lunch while we're there as well. I love walking around the outlets when the weather is so beautiful. I already straightened up the house and started laundry. My parents just came home from Pennsylvania so we may stop by for a quick visit if I have the time. My parents have an apartment in their house and the tenants just moved out. My mom said the apartment needs a good cleaning, I want to take a look around and see what we're up against.
I forgot to mention that I spotted my first display of candy corn in the supermarket yesterday. So exciting
Hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day ♥

Thank you, M!!
I will tell him you said so!
It's the big 40

40 is the new 30.

Yep, I find things to improve with age personally. Settled & enjoying life.

Happy late Birthday to Adi!

I'm hoping that, since 40 is the new 30, the math is 25% less than, and not just 10 years less than.

That means:
52 - (52 x .25) = 39
vs.
52 - 10 = 42

Yeah, I'm liking 39 better than 42!!

Good morning MMC! Merry "Friday"! Tee Hee! Ok, Merry Pines Day! Looking forward to getting this work day over with & then bring on wedding weekend! My brother/sil are flying in from Cape Cod this afternoon. Can't wait to see them! We are having pizza on Moms deck tonight to discuss what time we are leaving in the morning & what route we are going to take! Hoping to avoid I-75 as much as possible with convertibles! I have a lot to get done before we can lave. Corn was ready to be put up, so we did that last night! We froze a gallon bag + 17 quart bags. Glad that's done, but wasn't planning that for this week, ah well - so yummy!

Everyone have a Fabulous day!

Merry Pines Day, Holiday!
Hope your work day goes well, and quickly!
Hope your brother & SIL have a safe trip.
Have a wonderful day!

Yeah first time I will be off 4 days in a row since New Years. All my 3 day weekends though gave me plenty of little breaks. I am having pizza for lunch but that wouldn't stop me from having pizza for dinner!

It's got that September feel outside HMG. Hope you have a great day!

Prayers for Rollins!

He appreciates them.

 

[snowflake22]

Sounds like you had a nice day yesterday. Hope you had fun celebrating Adi's birthday! Happy 40th to him!!!

Thank you, I did.
And we did, too! Just the way he likes it, low key, laid back, cheesy popcorn, pizza, cake, and his favorite Leinie's! Oh, and we watched an episode of Stranger Things! He liked his gifts from Har & I, too. It was fun!

Good morning HMG! Have fun with your daughter today! I hope the apartment is too overwhelming to tackle!
Yesterday at the grocery there was a guy unpacking beer - all the sudden he opens a box & hollers (at another employee) "PUMPKIN BEER!" Lol! Then he commented that must be a new one in for the season!
Have a great day!
