Christmas Countdown - 2017

[SnowflakeMom]

good evening MMC !

brrrr so chilly. seems most of the worst of this storm is going to miss us.
I cannot get my computer key board fixed as it is sadly just to old. I do however have a key board plugged in for now making posting easier again.

Please keep LittleCS in your thoughts and prayers. Her first test showed nothing so they are now going to have her come in for a bone marrow biopsy. I hope this will show what is going on with her.

have a great evening all and I hope all of you that are in the path of this storm stay safe and warm.

Sending prayers for little Star!

Good morning MMC ~
Happy Tuesday!
The forecast for Long Island completely changed overnight. The 18 inches of snow is down to 3-6 inches since its changing over to sleet and freezing rain. It's pretty nasty out there and it's going to be a slushy mess. Hard to believe Spring begins in less than a week. Everyone in my family ended up getting off from work when the blizzard warning was issued yesterday so at least we'll get to stay in and relax. Although I do have to head out in to the back yard soon to shovel for Maggie again. I hope everyone in the path of the storm stays safe and warm. Wishing all of you a wonderful day!

Have a good day, HMG..we just got downgraded to a winter storm warning but we still may get up to 14 inches...we'll see!!

Happy Tuesday!! We were downgraded to a winter storm warning with a wind advisory. It is snowing pretty good now..I am hoping we don't lose power! Hope everyone stays safe in the storm!

Good Morning, Milestone Approachers.
And in point of fact, our next marker is so close you can practically reach out and touch it!

Days to the Season: 244
Days to Christmas Day: 286

And just how close are we? Can we really be so close we can just about reach out and touch the next marker?
Indeed.
It's TOMORROW!
At that point, we will have completed the ENTIRE FIRST THIRD of our Season count and will commence the SECOND third of our journey.
(Wow!)


Cold. Rain. Somber, overcast skies.
That scenario has replaced the warmth, sun, and dry conditions of a couple of days ago. And it's not getting much better. Winter like conditions are here to stay for the balance of this week.
Currently, we are arising to 37 degrees here in the Cold Capital City after an early morning rain.


But, again. Never mind the unpleasant weather. (And folks are really facing a bad situation in the northeast.) You have a Terrific Tuesday, regardless.
And remember. Rain or shine, warmth or cold, wind or calm, the Shispering Pines will be open tomorrow for the usual weekly open house. Carl will be at the door with piping hot fired twinkies and smooth, sweet, southern iced tea for all visitors!

Thanks Crown!! Milestones are flying by

A Terrific Tuesday to you SnowflakeMom. It is always a nice moment when you see the storm pass by and hopefully you will see that today. We will keep your power on in our thoughts and prayers. Enjoy some popcorn and a good movie...

Thank you so much everyone. Maggie is taking her medicine and seems to be doing a little bit better. I hope we can continue to keep her comfortable.
xx

So glad to hear the meds seem to be helping. I will continue to pray for her comfort & health!! She's just too cute! (((HUGS)))

Good evening,

Counting down the hours until the blizzard gets here, I have decided to not go in tomorrow after much careful thought. I was planning to go in for half a day, but once they upgraded the storm to a blizzard and are expecting 2-4 inches of snow per hour, and 18-24 inches overall, I just cannot risk it. I am watching the Bruins game now, they are playing on the Canadian west coast in Vancouver.
Everyone in the path of the storm stay safe.

Goodnight, everyone

Good idea to stay home. Hope you enjoy your unexpected day off. Stay warm 'n cozy!

Morning Holiday. Well for the foreseeable future nothing is on the radar and we should be back up into the high 40's to low 50's by Thursday. The great thing about yesterday was that the sun was out, so even though it did not get above 22, the sun still dried out the streets and sidewalks.
Have a Terrific Tuesday...

Enjoy your "heat wave" that's coming!! I just looked up the forecast in Rapid City - my niece is going to have 65º tomorrow. What the heck?? (Currently 19º here! Brrrrr)
Have a great day GCY!

 

[Holiday]

Good Tuesday morning! A day off for me. I'll make sure to get my errands done before snow really hits here. I have some crafts to do for a contest at work. I'm looking for origami bird patterns actually. Be safe everyone and have a great day!

Enjoy your day off!! Hope you have good luck finding the patterns you are looking for!! Stay safe 'n warm!!

Rollins will be SO happy!!!

Probably thinks it's the weekend already!

 

[Holiday]

Morning MMC! We are in the middle of a blizzard here. We have probably at least 4 inches of snow already and it's snowing hard and should continue through most of the day. We may get some sleet mixing in too. They are calling for 12-24 inches of snow here. Well winter sure hit us here in March after a mild warm February. Time to relax...and then start shoveling lol.​

*Jealous* .... LOL Have a fun day!

Good Tuesday morning, Christmas friends!

I had to hit the floor running this morning. We have a lot of consultants, general managers and Vice Presidents coming in for a plant visit and meetings starting today, and my office is a mess. Of course, they're here to see me, but just my luck, one of them will come in to see how organized I am...not! Most of them, I think, are using it as an excuse to visit our general manager, who is dealing with ALS.

In the meantime, it's cold! Sweater again for me, baby! Yeah!

I hope y'all have a warm, great day!

I hope all your meetings go well!! Have a good day!! Continued prayers for Russell!

Woke up to a few inches of snow this morning and right on schedule the snow fall is picking up. It still wont beat our pre Thanksgiving blizzard...but I'll take it..lol

Enjoy the snow!!!

Morning RachRon. Are you serious? Does FedEx really still operate in the midst of a storm? I would think they would be aware that the bigger the vehicle the harder to control in a storm.
Hopefully your "garden" in currently inside. Take care...
