Monday Morning Coffee
Good Monday Morning everyone!
It's time for morning coffee! Just waiting to start the black, decaf coffee. So good!
Wasn't it a great weather weekend? Got two bike rides in. Might be the last good outdoor riding for a long time.
QOTD-Do you have your decorations up for Christmas or do you wait till after Thanksgiving? Will start decorating today as I got these really neat LED snowflake lights at Target. Want to get the holly lights around the mantle, too. Love Christmas decorations. Will get our tree in December as we always get a fresh...

Top 'o the mornin' to ya Deb and everyone!
I'm almost out the door headed to work. I didn't even notice the weather this weekend, except for late last night I was walking the dog and realized I just had a sweatshirt on. I spent my whole weekend shopping...which would normally be a good thing for me.....but I'm tired! I'm done! No more shopping! Oh wait, I have to go to Target and Walgreen's tonight. Shoot. But after today, no more shopping! LOL
QOTD-DH bought a stupid fake tree last year. I always want a fresh one. Since it's fake, I guess I can put it up any time. I bought a 6ft. stocking for my youngest son yesterday at Costco. He's 15 and acted like he was 5 when he saw it. I think he thinks it's going to be filled on Christmas Eve. Maybe next weekend I'll start to put my stuff out.
Hope you all have a great day!!

Good Morning everyone!
Deb - I agree the weather was beautiful this weekend. I was in Lansing all day Saturday with my boys for a bowling tournament and when I stepped outside to go to the car in the afternoon I couldn't believe how warm and sunny it was!
QOTD: No decorations up yet for me. I usually do it after Thanksgiving. But it looks like a lot of people took advantage oi the warm weather and got their outside lights up because I was dring home from the gym last night and there were a lot of Christmas lights on!
Have a great day everyone!

Mornin Deb and Brenda and Nan,
Drinking decaf protein coffee right now. Had to make a fresh pot already because Gary had a friend over (at 6 am) for coffee this morning and they drank a whole pot. That's ok tho, because now I can make my decaf. I usually start out with caffinated because that's what he makes in the morning.. Beautiful weekend we had. I was helping Gary put up some heat cable on the roof and I'm sort of sore today. My glutes (buns) aren't used to my going up and down a ladder as much as I did. It was sort of fun seeing how agile I am now. I didn't have any trouble at all. My fingers are sore too from pushing the little metal tabs under the shingles. Oh well. Gary is now bugging me to finish unpacking the other three boxes that I didn't get to this summer. I went thru my dresser again and came up with 9 pairs of jeans that don't fit any more. I put the size 12 jeans on and Gary said I look great in them. I may just have to go buy another pair!. The weight is at a stand still, but the inches are coming off, so that's ok with me. The scale doesn't rule (anymore).
QOTD: I have a lited wreath sitting on my buffet waiting to be hung. That's the only thing I have ready. We have a fake Christmas tree because I like to enjoy it for a long time. It's prelit (easy) and I just have Swarovski Chrystal and Baldwin Brass ornaments that go on it. I've collected these ornaments over the last several years, and I think my tree is gorgeous. Not sure where I'm going to put it up here this year tho, but it's probably going up next weekend. My dogs like to sit on two kitchen chairs in front of the picture window, and I think I'm going o have to move the chairs to put up the tree. The dogs will be sooo confused. Oh well.
Have a good start to what's going to be a great week!

Good morning all -
Had a good weekend. Saturday was packed with fun stuff (labs drawn, photowalk & play at the Bay City Players theater). Sunday was a lazy day at home catching up on laundry and housework and getting some much needed sleep.
QOTD -- My Christmas decorating kind of goes in phases. I don't decorate every year - it mostly depends on how much time I have and if I feel like decorating. I'm hosting the Bay City Support Group's Christmas party at my house, so that means decorations this year. Not sure I'm going to put the tree up though (my artifical tree is a PITA to assemble) and will probably just do the nativity set, some fireplace stuff and get a couple big pointesettas. I'll proably just do minimal stuff outside (large lighted snowflakes are easy). But you're right... with the nice weather we're suppose to have this week, I should get that outside stuff done ASAP.
Have a good day all!

Good Morning All,
Working a little overtime this morning it's hard to do after working the midnight shift. I am working on some water this morning.
I did get up both afternoons over the weekend and took a couple of nice walks . . what great weather.
QOTD- I put my stuff up the weekend after Thanksgiving. I usually put up my village the week before because it takes such a long time to set up and I leave it up all winter. My grand-daughter is very excited about putting up the tree . . last year we let her decorate it and it was hard for me to leave all the ornaments all clumped in one area but she thought it was beautiful and that was all that counted.
Have a good Monday!

Morning all,
Tummy is giving me trouble this morning. Coffee is not sitting well at all. Maybe some hot tea or hot chocolate.
Tiring weekend. My mom had hip replacement on the 9th, so I went over and cleaned and did their laundry, and made my dad a birthday cake and ended up feeding 10 for supper. It was an enjoyable evening. That was after I did all my running around, pharmacy, grocery store, library, and then cleaned my house so my nephew could have my great neice's 2nd birthday party at our house. My MIL told him he could, but she doesn't do anything to get ready for it. I told my hubby to talk to her or him, they have to find someone elses house to have it in. I had to re clean yesterday from the mess that the made while they were there. I would never think about using someone's house, and not cleaning up the mess or dishes when I left.
QOTD - my hubby just took down his halloween decor, so now Christmas should go up this week. I told him that him and my son could decorate it on Friday morning when I work. I have to be in at 4:30 a.m. for all those Black Friday Shoppers. That also means I can go home at 1 p.m.
Have a great day everyone

Good Morning Everyone,
Working on my first bottle of water this morning. I was in and out Saturday and Sunday just rested around the house. I am feeling amazing after whatever bug I had, so I made sure this weekend I didn't have a relapse. I am ready to start exercising again today. 3 weeks since surgery I think slow would be ok. QOTD: I used to put my tree up halloween night when my kids were younger, now it is the weekend of Thanksginving. The outside stuff whenever I can get the husband to get it done. Have a great day.

Morning, everyone. Happy Monday in Michigan.
QOTD-Do you have your decorations up for Christmas or do you wait till after Thanksgiving? I usually don't get anything up until about the second week of December, but I am going to try to do just a little each day so I can enjoy the decorations rather than resent the work. Now, lets see how my plan goes. I want some of those new lights-let us know how they work for you.

Afternoon all,
We had a buffet at work today, yummy. I had it easy I bought a sf pumpkin pie (the girls birthday we were celebrating is hypoglycemic and she likes sf pumpkin pie....so I jumped on it!)
Q: We took advantage of the weather and put up our lights outside yesterday. I'll prob. work on the inside during the weekend (I get a 4 day weekend!).
Have a great day all,
Edie
