Christmas Countdown - 2017

[Bradmac]

I just got a message from the groomer:

"Your little monster did great!! I did a scissors groom on her. Still a brown little bear. Still drying."

(She doesn't look TOO happy) LOL

Poor thing! She'll be happy to see her mama!

Poor thing! She'll be happy to see her mama!

I have a feeling she's thinking "I want to play with that Emmy dog!!!" LOL

 

[Holiday]

Have a wonderful evening everyone!!!

Hey made! Hope you're having a great fall'ish day too!! Do you have a chance of frost tonight like we do? Guess I better bring my favorite flowers in!! Darn! (which just reminded me that my poinsettia's from the last 2 years are still on the front porch. They won't like that frost!

Yes we are!! Supposed to get down to 34. Brr!!!

Awww, she’s so stinkin’ cute! I’m sure she’ll get used to her beauty parlor appointments quickly. Lucy & Emmy must be adorable together!

Morning MMC! Thursday? Not so bad. And I know our countdown will continue to amaze us this morning. October is starting to fade but not before the upcoming Halloween Weekend. I look forward to it but first things first we have Thursday. And 4 weeks from today we'll be watching the Macy's Parade. Even my sister told me yesterday she doesn't feel like it's supposed to be this close to the holidays already. I hope you all have a great day!

Good morning and Happy Thursday!
It’s going to be mostly cloudy today, chance of a shower with highs near 61 degrees. I tidied up the house and started laundry so far. I’ll be cooking breakfast in a little bit, the family will be waking up soon. I don’t have too much going on. I just need to run to the pet store and Whole Foods to pick up a couple of things. Dinner is in the crock pot already, I’m making pulled pork. I think I’ll make a tray of baked macaroni & cheese as well. That’s about it for me. I hope everyone is well and has a great day!!!

Good Morning, Everyone!

Getting mighty close now to the first of a string of four holidays we have eagerly been waiting for all year: Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years Day.
Add in the start of the Season, and we have FIVE days to look forward to in barely over two months.
(We are in the most exciting time of the year, Folks!)

And today's numbers just add to the excitement!
Days to Halloween: 5 (Closing in on the HALF WEEK mark!)
Days to the Season: 18 (Barely over 2 1/2 weeks left!)
Days to Thanksgiving: 28 (Four weeks from TODAY!)
Days to Christmas Day: 60 (UNDER 2 months to go!)

(I'm almost giddy with excitement. How about you?)


OK. The weather has taken a chilly turn and I had to wear a jacket all day yesterday. But after all, it is fall and we have been spoiled by an unusually long lasting summer.
This morning has commenced at a coolish 46 degrees here and we will again remain in the low to mid 60's all day.


OK. Who would have guessed last night's door prize at the 'Pine would be a giant fired twinkie in the shape of a camel?
(Well, I suppose we should have guessed something like that actually, considering who we are dealing with.) But no doubt it was tasty!

Have a Thrilling Thursday, Everybody!

Well, home again today. The doctor said it was most likely a virus so no antibiotic. Instead I am taking medicine for the symptoms. Yesterday evening was certainly the worst I have felt. I feel a little better this morning so hopefully things are moving in the right direction.
Today is not a bad day to miss at my school. There is a big field trip which means a lot of students are not there, so most of my classes are just doing study hall work or watching a video anyway.

In other news... I know it is almost Halloween, but I am much more in the mood to watch a Christmas movie. So, since I am home by myself, I think that is what I will do! It fits with the frost outside this morning.

I hope everyone has a great day!

Good Thursday morning, Christmas friends!

It's chilly and sunny around here this morning. It's my favorite kind of weather! I have my office windows open, and a cold breeze is coming through. It makes a cup of coffee even more special!

My mom is in the mountains, just a few miles from @mgramsey and she says the fall colors are on full display. I'm so ready to go back!

I hope y'all have a great day!

Good morning MMC! Merry FROSTY Friday Eve!!! What a chilly morning!!! Love the look when I open the blinds & see frost on the rooftops for the 1st time of the season! Makes me happy to be warm inside!!! And then I walked into the office where it's 64º...heater is on now. Brrrrr!!

Lucy did really well at the groomer yesterday. I couldn't believe it. LOL! I have never seen her so tired as she was last night. Emmy must have worn her out. I had to drag Lucy out & Emmy wanted to come home with us. LOL!
Here's her "after" shot at the groomers:

And here's a tired little girl...

Everyone, have a wonderful day!!!!

 

[Holiday]

Yes we are!! Supposed to get down to 34. Brr!!!

Well this time their prediction was right about the Freeze warning!! Brrrr! Good Frosty morning!!!

 

[Holiday]

Awww, she’s so stinkin’ cute! I’m sure she’ll get used to her beauty parlor appointments quickly. Lucy & Emmy must be adorable together!

They are SO cute!! Kelly said she was glad her hubby wasn't home to see them play together, or he would want another Wheaten!

Can't believe it's only FOUR weeks until Thanksgiving. Crazy!!
Have a great day Edge!

Well, home again today. The doctor said it was most likely a virus so no antibiotic. Instead I am taking medicine for the symptoms. Yesterday evening was certainly the worst I have felt. I feel a little better this morning so hopefully things are moving in the right direction.
Today is not a bad day to miss at my school. There is a big field trip which means a lot of students are not there, so most of my classes are just doing study hall work or watching a video anyway.

In other news... I know it is almost Halloween, but I am much more in the mood to watch a Christmas movie. So, since I am home by myself, I think that is what I will do! It fits with the frost outside this morning.

I hope everyone has a great day!

Hope you feel better as the day goes on. I have no doubt Christmas movies will make you feel better! Enjoy!!! Stay warm 'n cozy inside!!

Morning Brad! I hope your Mom has a great trip! I bet it's beautiful! Hope you can go back soon!!
Open windows??? My heater's on! 31º this morning! Brrrr!
Enjoy the cooler temps & have a great day!
