Christmas Countdown - 2017

[Holiday]

Good morning MMC ~
Merry Thursday!
I'm heading out soon, I'm going to the bakery to pick up some goodies for my mother. She's stopping by later for a visit. My oldest is off today and she's going to give her Grandma a lesson on the laptop we bought her for her birthday. My brother already went over things with her, not sure why she's having a hard time figuring things out. She's just not very techy. Guess that's where I get it from! Typical day otherwise, I'll just be working on my daily chores. I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day <3

Enjoy the visit with your Mom. Good luck to her, getting to know her new laptop! Have a wonderful day yourself!

I'm pretty sure he knows but he's mischievous and has more energy than most 1 year old dogs even that I know of.

That would be the "Terrier" coming out in him!!

Yes. I've been seeing others who have BT's say they are known to be stubborn and mischievous but very loving. Definitely describes him. Nitro was like that too but I just don't think he was ever to this degree on the scale that Rollins is with how he's always into trouble.

An annoying day so far! I was out of the office for two days for some minor surgery, and when I got here this morning there was my reading lamp/magnifier broken in pieces lying on my desk. Probably the cleaners knocked it over and left it for dead. The office will buy me a new one, but in the meantime I don't have a work lamp. (The lighting here is good for computer work, but inadequate for reading hard copy, which is why I bought a work lamp.)

1st of all - I hope your minor surgery was successful & you are feeling good! xx Sending prayers!
2nd, I'm sorry to hear about your lamp. Not a good way to start the day. I hope it can be replaced quickly!
3rd - I hope your day gets MUCH better!!!! (((HUGS)))

You just helped to improve it already!
Feeling okay, just awfully sore and itchy at the incision sites. Hoping that will last only a few days.

Good Thursday morning, Christmas friends!

We have a large crowd of customers coming in for a visit this morning, so we've been trying to get everything ready.

In the meantime, Nancy called to say that Jacob is too sick to go to class, and she's made a doctor's appointment for him at lunch. And she wants me to take him, because it's tax season and she can't possibly take off. I usually can take off at a moment's notice, but she knew we had customers visiting, so it turned into a thing LOL.

Long story short, I'm taking him...of course.

I hope y'all have a great day!

Morning MMC! Happy Thursday! The week is starting to roll forward and the month is rolling towards the end. Another nice day is predicted for today before a rainy and chilly Friday. Had to chase Rollins through 3 backyards yesterday as he got loose. Took me 10-15 minutes to get him. He thinks it's a game the more you chase him so I had to be strategic about how not to chase him too much but to stay close enough where he wouldn't go too far. After jumping on the mailman and through some neighbors flowers I was finally able to get him by taking out a squeaky toy of his that he's obsessed with. Have a great day!

HAHA...Rollins!! Glad he is ok!!

When we first got Leo he slipped off his leash and took off running through yards and then I lost him. I was a complete wreck. I finally came home and he was sitting on my deck looking at me...like "Where have you been"? I was so happy he was ok but was so mad at the same time....lol

Have a good Thursday!

Good Morning, Folks!

Continuing on now toward binary Milestones.
<< "Binary" Milestones, Crown?? >>
I'll explain after the presentation of today's figures

Days to the Season: 228
Days to Christmas Day: 270

Yes, my Friends, we are indeed approaching a pair of Milestone markers which are just one day apart from each other.
First up is the ONE-THIRD point to Christmas Day, now under 4 weeks away.
The second is the 200-day Season Window, exactly four weeks from today.
Thus, BINARY MILESTONES!
(And only right here on MMC, Guys!)


It was dry yesterday but cloudy most of the day, which held down the temps a bit.
Still, it was nice and warm for late March.
Today should see us reach 70 with no precipitation in the forecast.
This day-before-Weekend-Eve has commenced here in our quarter of MMC Land at 56 degrees.


Have a Thrilling Thursday, Everybody!

Thanks, Crown!!

Good morning MMC! Merry Friday Eve!! I had to let the basement door open for Miss Gracie this morning. We're supposed to get storms. She won't be happy! Right now it's just dreary with a high of 69º predicted today!

I hope you all have a Fantastic Friday Eve!!!

Poor Gracie...hope the storms are not too bad!! Have a good day!

Yes. I've been seeing others who have BT's say they are known to be stubborn and mischievous but very loving. Definitely describes him. Nitro was like that too but I just don't think he was ever to this degree on the scale that Rollins is with how he's always into trouble.

Leo is an absolute devil even at age 5! LOL...he latest thing is the garbage! I had to buy a baby lock for the cabinet!

You just helped to improve it already!
Feeling okay, just awfully sore and itchy at the incision sites. Hoping that will last only a few days.

Hope you are ok, Merry!! Sorry to hear about your lamp!

 

[SnowflakeMom]

Happy Friday Eve!! Just work for me today and getting ready for possibly some snow tomorrow..ugh!! But looks like the weekend will be good. My daughter has a soccer clinic tonight so I will take her to that and my younger daughter and I will hit Target to browse around and I am sure be buying something we don't need...lol!
Hope you all have a great day!

Snow...we bought locks for every cabinet door and drawer. The youngest boy at 2.5 can undo them faster than i can. They are a strap and the hook into a part that attaches to the drawer face. We even had to buy clear covers for the oven knobs...never ends..lol

Hope your customer visits go well too & Jacob gets in & out quick so you can get back to work!

Oh Leo!! Buster use to do that too me. If he got loose while on a walk, he would always be home waiting for me. Fast little creatures!
Gracie took off on us one time. She ran SO FAST! Our neighbors were over talking in our front yard, as well as the neighbors dog. We took off her collar so the 2 dogs could play - thinking she would stay since all those people were over & also her puppy friend....NOPE, the second that collar was unhooked, she B-LINED it - started going around the block faster than lightening, the same path we always walk. (guess I'm not fast enough for her) Our neighbors took off on their bicycles, I took off running - thankfully another neighbor 1 street over was just taking off on a walk with her dog & Gracie was interested in them, so I could catch up with her. Stinkers!

A storm just rolled through. Nothing major, but a few rumbles. I'm sure she's in the basement. LOL
I love Leo!!

Have fun at Target. Spend, spend, spend! We are supposed to have some rain tomorrow, but nice (mid 50's) on Saturday & partly cloudy. I hope the snow misses you!!
Have a great day!
