Christmas Countdown - 2016

[CGYager]

Good morning all you Santa lovers out there. Working on my second cup of coffee and have a table top fountain going for a little ambiance (that and a small pine tree lit up). Had a small T-Storm last night while I was at work, but hey the grass really needed the rain. Of course that will leave the upper mid-west hot and humid for today. Good thing I'll be sleeping though most of it. I truly hope you are all doing well.

Merry Friday Eve! Another dreary day here and we having pouring rain and a t-storm right now. It is so humid outside...it is like glue! Just work for me today and my oldest daughter is supposed to have a pick up soccer game but not sure on the weather....we'll see. Hope you all have a great day. I think I am going to make another cup of coffee and turn on some Christmas music..

Merry Friday Eve SnowflakeMom ~
The humidity is awful today. Looks like much of the same for the next few days.
Enjoy your coffee & Christmas music. Have a nice day!

Good morning MMC! Merry Friday Eve!!! Hope everyone's day is off to a good start!
Jim went to the garden last night & picked 3 1/2 bags of tomatoes & 1/2 a bag of jalapeno's! Guess what I'll be making soon... LOL!
Have a great day everyone!

Our garden has just about played out. I guess the sun and heat was just too much for it. I'm still growing bell peppers, but the squash, cucumbers and tomatoes have given up.

A question for all of you... just out of curiosity sake. Do the towns/cities you live in still have a tree lighting ceremony? Here in Sioux Falls, it is the Saturday after Thanksgiving at the very end of the "Parade of Lights".

Our town used to have a lighting ceremony, generally handled by my wife's family, but when her mother fell ill, we got out of the habit. Now that she's better, I think I'll bring it up again. Thanks for reminding me!

Good morning Edge, Happy Thursday!
Enjoy your day off and your visit with Rollins. I hope he's on the mend and is able to come home with you very soon!

Thanks HMG!

 

[Edge612]

9 hours of sleep sounds great!! Enjoy your visit with Rollins and hope you get good news of bringing him home!

It feels even better than it sounds (9 hours of sleep). Thanks for the good wishes. Have a good day!

 

[Edge612]

That's always an excellent suggestion.

Yeah. Computers are just like us sometimes their brain freezes and we need to hit a restart button!

Good Thursday morning, Christmas friends!

Yesterday we viewed the first iteration of the "commercial" we recorded for Bernie's store. It's pretty good! You'd have to know Bernie to understand his humor, but it makes for great TV LOL!

We have open house at school for Elizabeth tonight, then school starts tomorrow for her. Jacob starts college on Monday. That's crazy-talk!!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Thank you so much Snowflake ~
They have not suggested Lasix or Furosemide for Maggie. She has this chronic bronchitis and there's always that fear of pneumonia when they hear the crackling in her lungs. That's why we started another round of antibiotics. They prescribed an anxiety pill call Trazodone this past Monday, we were hoping it would help to calm her, she tends to panic during the coughing fits which makes the coughing even worse. She had a bad reaction so we stopped it. If she doesn't improve with the antibiotics I think we may do the endoscopy. The veterinarian doesn't think we're at that point yet but I'm not sure if I agree. I'm going to video a couple of her coughing fits so he can really see what going through.
Your thoughts and prayers mean so much to me. You and Harlowe are in mine as well <3
xo

Poor little girl!! Extra prayers!
