Topic: Christmas Eve Express - All Aboard!

If you are not ready for tomorrow - sorry about your luck!  Still have a few hours to tie up the lose ends but don't look for the top of the line goodies to be on the shelf till the "after Christmas" sales start.

Jan is taking the granddaughters back to their rightful owner(s) this morning.  Can quasi put the house back together till they come back with their parents to do Christmas dinner after New Year's.  Logistics not letting us all get together till then.

Now the obligatory warning:  If you have to be traveling watch out for the other drivers on the road!  I have observed over the years that people tend to think because it is a major holiday they will get a pass from us on driving like idiots and tend to do so.  No where in the Transportation Code does it say that just because it is Christmas that you can't get a ticket!  We're not the Grinch or Scrooge - we just work for them! kiss

Merry Christmas!!

Grateful for so many things.  My Lord is first on the list!  My husband would be next.. So glad to have him beside me, helping me make it though the Christmas holiday without my Daddy & Mom.  It's going to be a tough day for me and my family.  So please say a little prayer for me.. Grateful for having a job-- that puts a roof over my head and warm clothes to wear.  There are so many people in this world who don't have neither.  Praying for a very Merry Christmas for everyone!

Love to all.

Good morning everyone!

Was so cold over the weekend. I had to get out on Saturday (in the rain).  One last stop into Walmart.  Yesterday I stayed in all day!  It was just too cold out for me.  Got most of my cookie, pies & fudge done.  Tonight after dinner making chocolate cakes.  Driving up to OKLA early tomorrow morning for the day.  Celebrating my "older" sister's birthday with her and family.  Going to make a few stops to visit friends and other family.  Christmas Day will be a nice quiet day for me and DH at home,  just us...

Working today, but no business.. Company gets to pay me for sitting !!! 

Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas.  Drive safe if you are out on the roads...

Brenda

Happy Pre-Christmas Eve Everyone,

Hope all your gifts are bought, wrapped and under your Christmas tree.   I've done all the Christmas shopping that I am doing other than hitting the grocery store for a few things for Christmas eve night and Christmas dinner.     Today I am thankful that I have so much already done.    Grateful for this time of the year, for my family, my church, my faith in God, friends, my WLS, and so very many more things too many to list today. Remember....this is NOT a happy time for everyone.   Try to reach out to someone if you see someone who has no family or no where to go on Christmas Day.   Invite someone to be part of your family celebration.    Spread joy, peace and love to others in need and you will be extremely grateful that you did and very blessed.   Have a amazing day and PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a safe day.

 

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good morning,  

Pretty much finished up my Christmas shopping just have one gift card to go get and since we aren't getting together with the in-laws till Jan 4th I have some time.  

Work is all I have on my agenda and most folks are on vacation so should be a quite day.    

Scales creeped up a little bit this morning but not too surprised.    

Have a great day!

“Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising which tempt you to believe that your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires courage.” ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

Probably gained 5 lbs yesterday despite getting on the treadmill.  Jan was baking Christmas cookies and I had to sample a few of them.  Still smells like fresh baked cookies in here  We were taking the girls to light park but line was way too long to sit through. when you have to get up early next morning.  Had delay getting to supper and had to stop at the store for some Pull-ups.  Grammy forgot to bring any extras and sure enough we needed one!  Regardless of the line tonight we have to endeavor to persevere otherwise we'll lose credibility with the granddaughters.  Can't let that happen. 

Work top of agenda.  Chief and Sgt types are out of town so guess who is supervising this week?  Phone rang at 1:12 this AM.  "What do I do....?" 

Go Forth and do your thing!

haven't posted in a few days.. Went to Dr. Wed morning about my knee/leg.  No blood clot, so that is a relief.  Work is slow, but still have to be here.  Christmas luncheon at DH office today.  Tonight dinner out, just because I don't want to cook.. Have a Christmas party in OKLA tomorrow evening, but not sure we are going.  Weather keeps changing up there.  Hope everyone has a good weekend!

Finally off for the holidays after a busy week at work.  I ave a few things to get done today.  Tomorrow morning we fly out to Nassau for a week in the sun at the beach.  I'm sure looking forward to it.  Hubby is on his way home from work today for the vacation.  

 

Hope everyone has a great Christmas!
