Christmas Countdown - 2016

[Martine]

Good morning everyone. Well, Henry is still running his fever, but is not feeling too bad. So we are just hanging out and listening to some Halloween music, and then Christmas music.

Nathan, my oldest, takes his driving test today!
He is worried about the maneuverability portion of the test.

Well, Henry says it is time for some Christmas music, so I suppose Kringle Radio is about to blast through the house.

Hope Henry's fever breaks soon. And much success to Nathan on his driving test. I only learned to drive 3 years ago and I remember the stress of the driving test so well. Enjoy the Christmas music!

Merry Tuesday,
Busy day ahead. My eldest is better now and back to school.
I'm cold. 40s today but at least dry.

Christmas is making it's way into our lives over over here.

Excited to learn yesterday that the city will switch on Christmas lights on November 04th this year. They haven't released who will flick the switch or perform on the evening yet. The Christmas markets will follow on November 10!

I also saw that Movies24 will switch to Christmas24 this year on October 29th. It's the earliest they have ever done. I guess with Nov 01 being a weekday they decided to do it on the weekend instead. I am so EXCITED!

Catch up later.

Morning all and a happy well it's not Monday day. Things are looking pretty autumnal today with a light ground frost and some beautiful colour on the trees.

Merry Tuesday Tis! We haven't had frost, but it's sure been cool in the mornings. Yesterday morning there was a low fog rolling over the channel at the lake. Looked so pretty!
Have a great day!

Oh, I have to share the groomers pics of Miss Gracie celebrating Halloween! ♥ ♥ ♥

That brought a smile to my face. She is so adorable and amenable. Hope you get her test results soon. Have a great day!

This is the case of Loki vs the squirrel that keeps coming to our balcony (you can see it on the top right hand corner). Loki will stare at it intently and if it moves, he will bark and show it whose balcony it is.

Well, sweet kitty Winston crossed the rainbow bridge yesterday afternoon after a day lounging in the sun on the back porch with my dad. I miss him so much already. Thank you for all your support. You are wonderfully supportive!

I hope you all have a good Tuesday-a normal one here for me. I am enjoying the wonderful fall weather and am waiting anxiously for the trees to turn. Looking forward to sharing it all together.

Awe! (((HUGS))) I'm so sorry for your loss! So hard to lose a pet! Keeping you in my thoughts & prayers!

Good morning, MMC~
Merry Tuesday!
Today is the last of our warmer, dry Fall days this week, so outdoors-y time is necessary.
Wishing you all a safe, cozy, and blessed October day!

Good morning ~
Happy Tuesday!
It's going to be another beautiful day, sunny with a high of 63. We're currently at 43 degrees. I'm going to take Maggie for a walk after everyone is up and off to school and work. Then I need to run a few errands. I chose a new veterinarian so I need to pick up copies of Maggie, Bentley, Bella, Sophia, & Rosie's records from my old vet. I also need to go to the animal hospital where Maggie see's the specialist. I have to pick up antibiotics, the doctor wants her to continue on another round. And I have to do some food shopping as well. Should be able to relax a bit this afternoon, my mother will be coming over for a visit. We're just going to have some tea & cookies and chat. That's about it for me. I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!

Good Tuesday Morning MMC! I woke up to 41 degrees and I'm freezing. Funny thing is in the winter when we get into the low 40s it feels warm lol. Perception is one's reality. Beautiful sunshine out though and temps supposed to get into the low-mid 60s. Beautiful October weather. Rollins woke up at 3AM...I tried to keep my eyes closed so he'd go back to sleep. Trying to slow down this month. Anyone want to help?
Have a great day everyone!!

See, Rollins wanted to you get up at 3am so your day would last longer....He's trying to help!
Hope you are having a great day!

Greetings all. Well, two cups of coffee inside me, breakfast almost ready and time to get this day under way. I will head out to the zoo this morning. The "Zoo Boo" posters and flyers are ready for delivery around town and so duty calls... lol.
Just about done with the little bit of outside decorating I do for Halloween, but I need another string of orange lights for the archway. On Halloween night, I will add several Tiki torches to the yard for a more eerie effect.
I hope everyone is having fun todayand don't forget your "Great Pumpkin" patch visit. Take care all.

Good Tuesday morning, Christmas friends!

I left work early yesterday to take Elizabeth to the orthodontist. She finally got the words she wanted; the braces come off in two weeks! Boy, was she ever happy!

When we got home, I started picking up limbs in my yard while the kids went to the football game. The usual Friday night game was postponed until last night because of the storm. Then Nancy and I watched a couple episodes of Longmire on Netflix.

More work in store for this evening, but at least Mama has power again, so I don't have to worry so much about her!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Congrats to Elizabeth! I'm sure she is thrilled!!
And I bet mama is thrilled her power is back on! Glad you stayed safe!!!
Have a good Tuesday!

Good Tuesday morning! A day off for me but some errands to run and laundry to do. Part of what I need for my Halloween costume has been delivered to a friend of my brother living in Vermont. He'll be coming up in a couple of weeks, just in time for me to put it all together. I'm also now looking up ideas for Halloween desserts for a bake sale at work in 3 weeks. So a relatively restful day ahead. Have a wonderful day everyone!

Enjoy your day off. Sounds like a nice fall-ish day!

Happy Tuesday! I am so late getting on today and need to catch up. My oldest daughter is home from school with some type of weird allergic reaction on her face, her eye was almost swollen shut and neck. I took her to the Dr this morning and they are not really sure what it is but gave her 3 days of oral steroids so hopefully that will get rid of it.
Just working today and hope everyone has a good day!

Funny! Our Lulu does the same thing. She stares out the back door, watching for signs of movement in the back yard. LOL
