You Might Be a Coffee Addict if...

* Starbucks has decided to use you as their official mascot.
* You've ever carried your coffee cup into the shower with you in the morning.
* You regard the fact that your hands are shaking as a good sign.
* Your birthday is a national holiday in Colombia.
* You go to sleep just to wake up and smell the coffee.

You and our resident coffee expert, Binger, will get along great!
I think they have a secret yen to buy Starbucks.
(Of course, that would take LOTS of yen!)

SEASON DAY 32
Days to Christmas Day: 11 (Nearly down to single digits. Wow!)

Good Morning.
Our last warm morning (58 when I left for the office).
We have had FOUR straight days of record highs, now.
Things return to normal tomorrow.

A show coming up on Sunday which is a don't miss, is "Christmas at the White House" on HGTV.
This is an annual show covering the decorations at the White House and the installing of the official White House Christmas tree. I try never to miss that one. They always have the most incredible decorations.

Have a Fabulous Friday, everyone, and a great start to a wonderous weekend!

We love that show as well Crown! I just set it up to tape because we like to watch it a couple of times...I'd love to get to the White House someday during Christmastime to see those decorations in person, they do such a great job!

Snow and Ice are the watch words of the Northeast this morning...With more to come Saturday into Sunday...I guess it really is Christmastime!!!

I guess many feel the way you do, Jay, since HGTV has it scheduled to run 3 times.

We did visit the White House MANY years ago (Lyndon Johnson was President if that give you an idea) but it was not at Christmas time.
(That was long before the heightened security and all you had to do was just walk in. No screening or security at all although it was only open on certain days/hours.
My have times changed!)

Hello gang..
An hour and a half til my weekend starts...HOORAY!

Had a couple of changes in plans, which is fine!

Tonight..maybe hubby and I can go to the mall?

Saturday we were gonna go to Hershey, but with some budget issues that will hopefully happen next weekend. Besides the weather is supposed to get bad!

So instead we might go downtown and take pics by the nativity and Christmas tree....

Sunday is a day to relax and then go to mass

I work on Monday..
Takin' off Tuesday to volunteer at the Salvation Army (also my daughters 16th birthday)

SEASON DAY 33
Days to Christmas Day: 10 (Single digits tomorrow. Double Wow!)

Good Morning, all of my Christmas buddies!

Next-To-The-Last weekend before the Big Day.
Are you ready? Is all that shopping done? Are the gifts wrapped? Cards sent? ......Coffee drunk?
"Great balls of fire, time's a-wastin"!

The temp here in Raleigh was 46 when I got up about 4 hours ago. It has now dropped to 44 and it's overcast. Has the feel of snow in the air but that is not predicted.

I'm probably just wasting type but has anyone heard about the annual "Holiday at Pops" (Boston Pops Orchestra) concert that used to be broadcast on TV every year until recently? Any chance it will make a comeback?
Can't understand why they stopped televising this wonderful program. It was my favorite annual special.

Well, have a Stupendous Saturday, everyone!
Enjoy your weekend and keep a Christmas song in your heart wherever you go.

Hi Crownster! How's that FOX doing today?

Big Big BIG storm heading our way....ice, snow, high winds...you know, the good stuff.

I think I already caught that "Christmas at the White House" sometime last week...or was that a re-run of last year's?

Cedarfarm · Dec 15, 2007

Oh, the "Holiday at Pops"...oh yes, I loved watching that program, a good one to put you in the Christmas mood... Haven't heard if it's going to be on.

Enjoy your Saturday!
