Good Tuesday morning, Christmas friends!
It's cold, windy and overcast this morning. I thought it was Spring?!
It seems like all I do is brag on my kids these days, and I apologize, but here's some more: Elizabeth has been accepted into the Honors Program at the University, AND she earned a full-ride scholarship!! I'm so proud of my little girl, I could cry! She had to interview for both a few weeks ago, and we were worried because it was the day after her grandmother's funeral, but she obviously nailed it!
And Jacob has been on the Dean's List continuously for the last three years! It's hard to imagine that he'll be a senior in the Fall.
Ok. I hope y'all have a great day, too!
(Did I mention how proud I am of my kids?)
Brad, that is wonderful! You have every right to be proud of your kids ~ they are awesome! Congratulations to Elizabeth and Jacob!!

What a shame your dad was under the weather ~ I pray he is better now and that you both will be able to go to a game together in 2020!

Happy Spring MMC! We made it to the next season (I think it's officially later this afternoon). Pretty awesome though. Should be a nice day with a high of 52 and sunny skies. I'm off the next 4 days so just getting as much work done today as I can. Have a great Pines Day!

Good First-Day-of-Spring Morning, my Friends!
Doesn't much feel like it here so far,with our temp in the 30's, but psychologically, it helps with my mood.
This is a nice mood-booster, too:
Days to the Season: 238
Days to Christmas Day: 280
And what will really do the trick is noting the closeness of our next marker.
It is of course, the ONE-QUARTER Milestone to Christmas Day 2019, and it now lurks just SIX days into the future. Less than a week away.
(I'm afraid to even look at what the next marker is!)
We are in a cool spell, but not cold. A medium weight jacket will do for warmth.
But I'm looking forward to Sunday and early next week, when it will really feel like spring!
We start off this center week day at 39 degrees here in the state capital and we may be in for some rain later today and tonight.
Well, the first day of spring means new decor at the Shispering Pines Inn and Carl, feeling springy, has outdone himself. Everything is fresh and airy. (Even the fired twinkies seem lighter and more fluffy!)
Will we see all of you there? Hope so!
Until then, you all have a Wonderful Wednesday, Folks!

Thanks Crown! Happy 1st Day of Spring!
Happy First Day of Spring MMC!
My daughter and I joined a gym this morning, we were there for 6:00am. I had to join with someone so they hold me accountable! I hope I learn to like it lol. Typical day of errands and chores. It’s going to be a nice day, sunny with highs near 50. I’m heading out soon to walk the dog. I hope everyone is well and has a wonderful day!

Happy Wednesday and First Day of Spring! Work for me today and my washer is acting up. Last night at 9:30 it turned on by itself and started filling with water. I looked online and it appears to be the control board. So the repair people are coming out tomorrow morning. Hope you all have a great day!
No, no! It's okay. It easy to get confused here! We're glad you can stop in when you can!
That sounds like a great trip - I love history too, as well as my daughter. We're only a few hours from Gettysburg, so that is something definitely on my bucket list, to take them too in a few years. Praying for nice weather and safe travel for you guys.
Good Sunday morning, and Happy St. Patrick's Day, Christmas friends!
I've been away for a few days with Elizabeth's State Literary Competition on Wednesday (they won!), and her dance competition on Saturday (they won that, too!). She's getting used to trophies and medals LOL.
Thursday was mom's surgery for breast cancer, and the doctor said it was a complete success! She still has to endure radiation treatment, but that's ok. We'll find out that schedule when she goes for her follow-up appointment on Friday.
In the meantime, it's been a great week for my family! Nancy is slowing improving after suffering the loss of her mother.
Thanks for all the prayers and kind thoughts, my friends! I think my family is doing great now.
I hope y'all have a wonderful Sunday!
Congrats to Elizabeth - that's wonderful and great news about your mom! Continued prayers to Nancy, as well as the rest of your family (including your mom) - you guys are really going through it, but I know (and I know you know), God is with you. He'll get you through it! Stay strong, my friend!
