Good Morning, Post-Milestoners!
Or is it Good Morning, Pre-Milestoners?
(Like Christmas, Milestones are either here or on the way.)
Details on our NEXT one will follow ater the presentation of the daily data.
Days to the Season: 99
Days to Christmas Day: 141
And don't those DOUBLE DIGITS look nice?
(Scary, but nice!)
OK. Christmas Countdown 2017 Milestone marker number 13.
(And you had better sit down for this because it is only 8 days away.)
On August 14, we will be......hold on, now.......THREE-QUARTERS of the way to Christmas Season 2017!
Now, I know you aren't going to believe that, so I invite you to check out the chart at post number 1 of this thread.
(Already down to single digits. WOW!!)
Fairly warm here yesterday, but by the evening it felt much better so I waited until the last moment to mow the lawn and got it done just before darkness fell.
Today is predicted to reach 88 degrees for a high, with the humidity getting into the 60's so it might be a tad uncomfortable by this afternoon.
We currently are at 73 degrees here, and it's a bit cloudy.
Have a Super Sunday and a Really Rousing Remainder of your Weekend, Everybody!

This is very exciting. "We" all live with Christmas in "our" hearts and parts of it appears during "our" daily lives from Christmas music, movies, Christmas In July through out the year..however it's nice when the season starts because everyone else can join us for "our" favourite time of the year.

Wow, that's a beautiful sight!!
Saw my first Christmas magazines on the supermarket magazine rack several days ago.
Good Monday Morning MMC. Been another hectic couple of day, but I can now say/sing, "I'm back in the saddle again, Out where a friend is a friend, Where the longhorn cattle feed On the lowly gypsum weed, I'm back in the saddle again". Anyway you get the picture... 
Not a ton planned for today. Some more yard work, which will include a couple of errands. And with an expected high of only 70 today, I'm thinking BBQ w/corn of the cob and roasted spuds for dinner.
Have a merry Monday all...

Happy Monday! Well happy for me cause I have 3 days of work and then 4 days off for sort of a final summer vacation/break. Weekend was a good one. Rainy day expected today with highs struggling to 68 degrees. Nothing like what August could be. Got a lot to get done in 3 days. Hope you all have a great start to your week!

Merry Greetings!
I'm on holidays again. I mentioned previously that I have plans to visit my brother and I confirmed everything with him. I'm heading out tomorrow and leaving Toronto on Thursday. This will be the farthest I've driven without a passenger. I'm excited about it and decided to go the route that takes a bit longer, but is the easiest to navigate because there won't be so many left and right turns and searching for signs.
He's already lining up things for us to do. The weather here is calling for rain most of the week, but the weather in Toronto is showing sunny skies for my visit.
Today doesn't count as a vacation day because it's our Civic Holiday so I get a nice break, but it only counts as 4 vacation days.
My husband and O'Malley will have to get by on their own for a few days.

Good Morning, Folks!
A new week.
The first week of the rest of our count.
(Also, the first week with our Season count in double digits!)
Days to the Season: 98
Days to Christmas Day: 140
And Milestone number 13?
Well it's ONE WEEK FROM TODAY and it's the THREE-QUARTERS marker to Christmas Season 2017!
(Can you believe 3/4 already? I can't. Too soon. Just too soon!)
We have been settling into a pattern recently where it's pretty warm and humid during the afternoons but noticeably more pleasant after sunset.
Such was the case yesterday. Made for nicer neighborhood walking weather.
Today may see thunderstorms but our high is supposed to remain in the 80's.
We are at 75 degrees here right now, and a light shower has just passed.
Have a Marvelous Monday, Friends!

Good morning MMC ~
Merry Monday!
It's going to be cloudy today with rain, highs near 74 degrees. I'll be in and out today, I have an appointment with my naturopathic doctor and the chiropractor as well. I'd like to make a Target run at some point. Other than that I'll be working on my daily chores. That's about it. I hope everyone is well and has a great day!

Thank you so much!! I hope your naturopathic doctor can help you out! They are amazing!
Gracie had an up & down weekend. I don't think she was feeling too good this morning. Yesterday morning she was full of P & V. Hopefully she's on the right path! xx
My friend who is a naturopath keeps telling me it has to do with the shots she got as a puppy. She keeps testing her & she said it's like the shots are in layers in Gracie. I don't understand it all, but it's intriguing! I told Jim to run that information from our friend by the "new" vet today when he delivers there. Sure hope we can get her straightened out!! xx
