Happy Sunday, everyone!

Brisk and sunny here, with a brilliant blue sky ... it's hard to believe that a hurricane is raging farther south. My heart goes out to anyone who lives in Florida.

Getting some laundry done here and continuing to work on a Christmas video project. Later I hope there will be time for crochet, tea, and relaxation ... we have a heavy week ahead of us where I work.

Hey MC! Hope you get time to do relaxing things. I too have a heavy week coming up, so we can get each other though. You got this. Have a great Sunday!
 
Happy Sunday! I am just having coffee and relaxing. I need to run to the grocery store later and my husband is going to make wings for the football games today. Hope you all have a great day!
Keeping everyone in Irma's path in my prayers.

Hope you're enjoying your afternoon SFM!!
 
Evening all,
Rough day at work followed by phone call from my brother letting me know mum's cat died after a rough week of being ill. He just couldn't break the news to her over the phone so I told her in person. Maze had been in and out of the vet all week and sadly they did all the could but she passed away. Mum is so heartbroken especially as she was not there for Maze I feel so sad for her as well as my brother :( My brother found Maze abandoned back in Feb and brought her home.

Hope everyone is well and prayers for everyone suffering the hurricane and storms.

I'm so sorry to hear about Maze. I will keep your Mum and brother in my thoughts and prayers. Sending love and hugs.

Morning ILoveHolidays. Nice to meet you and I hope and pray that it does miss you (and many more). Have a nice weekend and if necessary... hunker down.

Thank you! Whatever we do get of the storm looks like it'll be tomorrow so here's hoping it isn't too bad. They have cancelled school and it looks like I'll stay home from work in case we have tornadoes that they are now warning us to look out for. Normally my oldest daughter babysits but better safe than sorry! I feel horrible for everyone that is going through Irma at the moment. It looks really bad. :(
 
Ghost town has been closed for a few years now. We go to Cherokee, Bryson City and Dillsboro a lot, too. We like to picnic at the Islands Park in Cherokee, and rent pontoon boats on Fontana Lake. Lots of fun!

I think this was taken in 2015. It was deserted looking then. I know they tried to reopen it but not sure when it officially shut down. From what I heard, it never was as good as it used to be when they tried bringing it back. My kids love Santa Land up there near Cherokee (have you heard of it?) but they always ask why it's only open in the summer and not near Christmas. After many failed attempts at answering I have come up with the perfect reply. Because Santa is needed back at the north pole closer to Christmas. Phew!
Dillsboro is one of our many stops also! We've been to a few restaurants there (Kostas -or however you spell it- wasn't as good as I remember this past time.) and they have amazing fudge/ice cream places! My parents took me on the GSMR when I was younger (A LOT younger lol) and we found Dillsboro and Bryson City because of it. Such cute little towns!

The meatballs and sauce sound delicious, not to mention the finished ziti!! Yum! I'm doing errands with ya today. Hope you make it to the craft fair! Sounds fun. Enjoy your day either way!!

Thank you so much DYHWIH! I made it to the fair, it was super crowded but fun! I hope your day is going well and that you have a nice night!

Hi everyone! Just doing errands and going to church today. Our fall decor is out and I'm loving it! Burned a delicious mulled cider candle last night and our apartment smells heavenly. Thinking of all the folks in Irma's path and praying you stay safe and your loved ones do, too. I got to see my college friends yesterday which was SO much fun! Today will be playing catch up and trying to relax a bit before working a 6 day week coming up. Have a good one, y'all!
I need one of those..wife made deep fried chicken livers for her dinner..disgusting odor!!!
 
Good Saturday evening, Christmas friends.

We've decided to stay home since Irma seems to be tracking farther west. I hope that's a good decision. It's a toss-up between fighting the wind, or risking the overcrowded roads.

While I was closing the pool and moving lawn furniture to the shop, we got the call that our niece had suddenly passed away while watching her son play a baseball game. She was only 33 and hadn't been sick. She left two children, 10 and 4.

The storm is also demanding our attention, and we can't even plan her funeral yet because of it. It's just so very sad.

I hope you all stay safe!

So sorry for your loss, Brad. Best to you and your family during this difficult time.

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. What a shock this must have been. Prayers for her two children and family.

Praying for your safety through these storms and I hope they go away soon so you all can arrange the funeral.

Thoughts are with you all.
 
Morning MMC! Welcome back to the NFL on Sundays. It just feels awesome seeing it on every Sunday now. We are going to my Uncle's this evening for dinner as we do once a month. It's always fun. Last night we had a friend over so it's turned into a busy weekend. But another gorgeous day here with a high of 72 and mostly sunny skies. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
I always love coming home from work on a sunday and tuning into the NFL. I did just that yesterday.

Sorry to read of Maze's passing.
 
Morning MMC! 9-11...never forget that day. And also those in the path of the hurricane. It was so nice here this weekend I almost felt guilty. It was a busy weekend but a good one. Next weekend should be quieter. I like those weekends more than the busy ones sometimes. Today we expect another nice day with mostly sunny skies and a high of 76. Have a good Monday!
 
Sure is windy outside! Gusting up to 60MPH, according to the local news, and it's supposed to get faster near noon. I'm hoping the power lasts at least until daylight. Y'all stay safe!
 
Good morning ~
It's going to be cloudy today with highs near 77, we're currently at 54 degrees. I have a chiropractor appointment this morning. I need to pick up a few things a Target afterward. Back home to work on daily chores. Just a typical day. Dinner will be meatball soup with mini raviolis. That's about it for me. Thinking of everyone in Irma's path, I will continue to pray.
Remembering September 11th as well. God Bless America.

Good Morning, People.

Rise and shine.
It's a new week.
A week that, at its end, will see us all the way to the 100-day Christmas Day Milestone marker!

Days to the Season: 63
Days to Christmas Day: 105

And when will we see the 100-day Christmas Day Window open, revealing a double-double-digit count?
Just FIVE days from now!
(Yep. It's just that soon.)


Our "early fall" weather continued yesterday, with unusually cool temps, lots of sun and no rain or wind.
Beautiful!
Today will see highs in the mid 70's, again with no rain.
The story will be different tonight and tomorrow, when the remains of Irma are supposed to bring us some rain.
We are cloudy right now and see a temperature reading of 62 degrees on our back door thermometer.
Still thinking about our Florida friends and hoping they came through the hurricane OK.


Have a Marvelous Monday, Everyone.
 
I always love coming home from work on a sunday and tuning into the NFL. I did just that yesterday.
Good morning Festive. I trust you had a decent weekend and that your NFL viewing was satisfactory. By the way, do you favor any particular team(s)?
Have a wonderful week and a marvelous Monday start to it...
