Christmas Countdown - 2017

[Martine]

Good morning MMC! Merry Friday Eve!!!

How in the world can it be only 11 days until Christmas??

It's a chilly morning here. Schools are all on a 2 hour delay. Roads are slick after the blowing snow storm we had come through last night. Why does it always seem to snow after dark when we can't see it??

Little Miss Lucy is all pretty after her trip to the beauty parlor yesterday. She's ready for Santa!!

Good morning MMC!! Happy Friday Eve and today is my Friday and I am off on Monday. I have a dentist appt tomorrow and then I am going to the mall. Also, I hope to catch up on my wrapping tomorrow as well.
I am taking my oldest daughter to the Dr today...she has lost 10lbs, which I thought was from soccer season but she has been done with soccer for over a month now and she has not put any back on despite her eating like a horse. If you could please say a prayer that it is nothing serious, I would appreciate it.
Hope you all have a great day!

I will keep your daughter in my thoughts, hoping for a quick recovery after the visit to the doctor.

Ed Sheeran has been internationally popular for roughly three years...

I stopped listening to anything new after around 1988.

I'm a little jealous of your cut/color! I need both! Since my sis is my beautician she always squeezes me in but we've both been so busy this month! Enjoy your pampering & have a great day!

Thank you so much <3

Thank you all! We went to the Dr and they ruled out diabetes and they sent her for some bloodwork so we should know more tomorrow.

Her Dr said it may not be anything and she just needs to take in more calories. I wish I had that problem...

Is it too early to shop for next year ? Yabba

 

[Binger]

Did a reconnaissance on a new tree. There's still plenty to pick from.

 

['Tis the season]

Morning all and a happy Friday to one and all. So Christmas 17' is in full swing and in typical fashion time is absolutely flying by. I think December needs another week pre Christmas. There just isn't enough time.

Good morning MMC!
I have lots of shopping to do today plus daily chores in between. My husbands company Christmas party is this evening as well. Busy, busy. I hope everyone has a nice day and a wonderful Christmassy weekend ahead!

Morning MMC! TGIF! It's been a long and busy week. Got my 5 year watch at work last night at my 6th Christmas party. It's hard to believe that I've been here that long. Just getting ready for a busy weekend of buying food for Christmas Eve dinner, wrapping Christmas presents, watching Christmas shows and baking Christmas cookies. Notice the theme Christmas? That's what December is all about!

I'm in the same boat ... but we'll get everything done somehow!

Ran across this today Merry! Havent found a free pattern yet, just a paid download from Etsy.

Hello My Merry Chums!

Well, Mom is out of the hospital, but not "of the woods yet"; it's hard to stay merry watching her dwindling away and knowing full well that this will likely be her last Christmas with us. I try to make my way here and stay jolly, but it's been challenging finding time to work, help my dad out and visit here. My mom's birth mom died on Boxing Day many years ago and her adoptive mom died on New Year's Day during the same season; I have a bad feeling about this family trend.

I skipped my work out this morning at the gym so I could have a little "Merry Me Time" here at the forums.

These forum pages are always a Blessing and our merry forum family is growing more year after year. I'm thankful I gave myself permission to visit today. I know I seem open with the memories I share, but I'm actually a private person and don't share my feelings that much with others.

Mom -"Jane Dear" was certainly instrumental in turning me into a Christmas Nut from a young age. I hope I have the courage to stay strong in her presence this holiday. I don't want her to know how scared and sad I am; I just want to enjoy her company and make a few more memories while we can.

I guess in some ways I am lucky to at least know that she's slipping away so if there is any "unfinished business" we can make amends with each other; not everyone gets that opportunity; I think we're good.

Trying to keep a merry thought in my head and hoping YULE do the same,
