Thank you Martine!
Yes, Yorkies have a lot of energy. Although I have to say my girls weren’t this wild. Maybe it’s a boy thing, I don’t know. He’s still a puppy, I know things will change. I hope you’re having a Haopy Tuesday so far!

Thank you so much Snowflake ~
I am definitely feeling a bit overwhelmed this year. There’s so much going on, but it’s all good stuff! The wedding plans are moving along. I just received my oldest’s bridal shower invitations, I will be mailing them out very soon. The time is flying by. And my youngest and her fiancé are settling in nicely to the new apartment, thank you for asking!
I hope you guys are doing well. I will continue to keep all of you in my prayers. Sending love and hugs!

Little stink pot is right! It is frustrating but it’s impossible to get angry lol. My day is going well, hope yours is too <3

Hi neighbor!I'm in South Jersey too. Hello Neighbor.
Sounds great, buddy!
It's great that she walked in so confidently, hope she had a wonderful day at school!
How scary, so glad that you had some divine intervention my friend.
Thank you! She was so excited to be back to learning. I hope that trend continues all year. I hope that means she won't be afraid going to kindergarten next year
I hope things slow down a bit and that you can cherish every minute with your girls!
How exciting about the shower invitations!
Glad to hear that your youngest & her fiancé are enjoying their new place!
We are doing pretty well, thanks.
Thank you for the love, hugs, and prayers~ we are sending some back to you guys!
Have a great night!

I'm a little hazy on all of them, I have most of them packed up until next month. It will be like unwrapping the ornaments when I take them out. My favorite will probably change with the day
Good evening all,
A day of somber reflection for many reasons today, the horrific
events that took place 17 years ago will always be etched in my mind. Every year someone always asks the question, "Where were you...?" I remember it clear as day, along with the fear, the tears, and the unknown brought on by those attacks. My heart is always heavy for all who lost their lives that day.
This year it is a bit different for me also, it was a year ago today I made the decision to leave my wife, it was out of the blue but had been simmering for some time after we stopped communicating. I had enough and just left. I came back a few days later, we struggled, we separated again a few months later, got back together again, but we have been together since then. We have worked hard at our marriage and are stronger than we were 6 months ago, but the emotions of that day hit me hard today. A lot has rushed through my head today. Sorry for droning on, I just needed to get that out.
Everyone stay safe, and have a goodnight.

Hello everyone. It’s hard to believe that this beautiful ray of light, the best thing that has happened to me (besides my children) and the source of making my life completely beautiful was 1 month old on Monday. I love watching her, being with her and her parents and being called a grandpa (technically Pappi).
My life is now full.
My life is now full.
Prayers for your family. May happiness and peace be yours.
Happy Pines Day MMC! Another rainy morning here but can't complain because those who are in the path of the hurricane I feel for. Hoping that forecast somehow changes and it doesn't turn out as bad as they forecast. Just a lot to do at work but that's better than nothing to do. Hope you all enjoy your Mid-Week Pines Day!
my girls are coming over for my canned items too.
I went passed my favorite apple orchard yesterday and the trees are stuffed full of apples ! Looking froward to preparing some of them.
((((HUGS)))) and prayers for you both
she is beautiful !!
It official, my eldest daughter Jeannine will marry Chris on December 1 of this year !!
So excited for them both.
That's in only 80 days !!!!!
Merry Pines Day!
Looks like a dreary day today with some showers and t-storms.
Prayers for all in the path of the storm.
Typical day of work for me and my oldest daughter has a pasta party tonight for her soccer game tomorrow.
She also asked us if she could go to a fair this weekend with some friends and a boy she likes!! Of course I was grilling her with questions...

Good Morning, Friends.
The hurricane watch for us goes on but things are getting a bit more encouraging this morning, as we continue to watch the track and intensity predictions.
More below.
We continue to watch and monitor this, as well:
Days to the Season: 62
Days to Christmas Day: 104
Barely over HALF a week remains now until the 100-DAY CHRISTMAS DAY Milestone marker and the beginning of a double, double-digit count.
(Really starting to close in, now!)
Other than the pending hurricane, our weather has not been too bad. A little light rain with lower humidity and temperatures. You can still tell it's summer of course, but it's not overly oppressive.
This morning's hurricane track update shows a significant jog to the left just as the storm reaches the coast. If this trend continues, things should be a lot better for central NC. The winds are down a bit as well. Encouraging!
Our current temperature reading is 74 degrees, here.
Well, it's mid week.
Some suggested the idea of a hurricane party to Carl, but he vetoed the idea. He takes these things quite seriously.
Nevertheless, the 'Pines is open for business this evening with the usual never-ending supply of fired twinkies and the bottomless vat of sweet iced tea. Hope to see you there!
Have a Wonderful Wednesday, Everyone!

Hey there, MMC Forum-Go'ers!
Hope everyone is doing well. Checking in for the first time this year. I started my Christmas shopping today and moved some Christmas music over to my phone for listening. Even snuck a cheeky christmas song into the pub quiz I host every Tuesday!
Excitement levels rising!
