Good Morning Nutters!

New Hampshire-Jaffrey Center Meeting House

Lovely picture postcard moment!

What was the weather like yesterday for you, Jean? Didn't NH get hammered, too?

Our sheltered thermometer says it's 14 degrees outside & it is so windy it's howling!
We didn't get a lot of snow (but it's still falling), about 8" on Sunday.
the biggest downer is the gray skt--relentlessly, oppressively GRAY!

How's it in CT--cold? is it sunny?

Are you liking the Gingerbread flavor coffee @ D&D?
It's not my fave--makes me long for Pumpkin Spice!

Lovely picture postcard moment!

Why thank you Miss Dawn!

How're things in your neck of the woods? Still rowdy driving?

Got your decorations up?

How nice of you to ask. I have quite a few pics to share ...


First, this pic was taken about 5 minutes ago on our back deck ..

Next up, our Christmas tree.

Anyone interested in seeing pictures of my Christmas Village? It's not the typical Victorian ones you see. It's called Retrovillle.

Well, I'm not the best judge of "cold" - to me, it's cold until it's 80 degrees out! Let me say that I didn't think I'd make it into the building from the parking lot this morning. It's windy and the cold just goes right through me. The sky is grey, but it's bright, if you know what I mean. Like the sun is trying to shine, but the clouds are just too thick.

Try the Vanilla Spice coffee. Although I hate Rachael Ray and her stupid commercials, I have to admit, that coffee is "delish."

Good morning nuts!!

WELCOME BACK JEAN!!
Sorry we didn't get a chance to meet up, next time for sure!!

Liz, good news on the tires! Purple streaked hair, need pictures of that!

Only 4 days until I'm back up there.
Our weather today is just amazing! It's cooled off and sunshiny!

I do love looking at the white stuff in pictures Very pretty Jean & DM
Pretty tree too DM. I'll have to take some pictures of mine when I get a chance.
I'd love to see your village. I have the New England Village, but I haven't put it up I a couple of years. Just always run out of time.

So, my Pats almost lost!! But, they did it Crazy game.

The Jets/Dolphins game was just something
Not to mention all the fights in the stands. Two guys got thrown out because they touched my cocktail waitresses It was a long day.

I got to see my sister from CT this weekend. She was in Maimi on vacation. She and her BF took KJ to the game. I stayed an extra day and went to the beach with them yesterday. It was great to see her. I haven't seen her since June when we were in Alaska together.

Oh, I have a heel spur it hurts like crazy.

Okay, have a good one. I need to try and catch up around here.

 

[CPM]

Sorry I've been MIA for so long.

I miss ya all and will catch up next week and will probably have lots to say

Hi Blue!!

 

[apirateslifeforme]

Okay, everyone who wants to see my "purple" hair, write down January 14, because that's when we're doing it. After work. I'm not guaranteeing anything, though; remember that my hair is dark red. It may not come out (although we're going to bleach first, then do the purple in the bleached areas), or it may not show on the camera. I'll do my best, though, of course!

Okay, I'll keep the LI Iced Teas & deck chairs on hold for.. uh..June?

And as my DS used to say, "Who 'ruined' your snow?"

Next up, our Christmas tree.

You are such a decorating diva!
My tree is sitting in the woods just north of here!

Ohhh villages! Retroville? Yes, pics, please! don't believe I've ever seen Retroville.

Love, love, loving your snowman!

1. 'natch, this hoTt chick left, so it's no longer steamy in FL!
2. Yay! I love Christmas deco pics!
3. Fights in the stands I can do without, I am a big coward with a bigger mouth, though, not a smart combination
4. Hmm..ah, to be young & single & getting touched in the stands! <sigh> j/k
5. Hoping you & DSis had a super time!

Tanned Woman Flaunt Your Beach Pics!


Go ahead, we can take it! All us red-nosed, frozen toed shivering Iced Nuts!

So much for being swamped today. We've been caught up for hours. I guess it's that time of year again - people aren't buying windows and doors! I've answered all my emails, paid some bills, ordered a few things...

Manicure time!

 

[apirateslifeforme]

Manicure time!

Did that on Sunday. Wet-n-Wild Black Creme with China Glaze Mr. & Mrs. on top. Came out a really dark shimmery purple.

 

[Disneyolic]

Let's take a walk through Retroville ...

Watch out for that cop on the motorcycle!

Anyone up for a quickie wedding?

Me neither. Let's keep walking past the Diner.

More cops - eating donuts???

Of course, there are a couple of residences in town ...

One even has a door-to-door vacuum salesman!

Now a quick span through the town square ...

Get your holiday grub at Albert's Groceries.

Have your tires checked at the Gas Station.

Hungry? We can stop for a bite to eat!

Don't forget to buy your family one of them new console TVs!

I feel like bowling. How about you?

And maybe we can end the evening at Jimmy's Drive-In?

...complete with carhop!

 

[Squidrific]

Yes, he was - I believe the character's name was Barty Crouch Jr.



JEAN!!!

Oh yes! Very hot in black I'll tell ya!

Hey, Squiddy, use your watery influence to get an ice machine installed on at least every other floor in SSR!

I almost lost weight traisping back & forth to the 1st floor only ice machine!
And don't go one about the ice trays--2 little ice trays cannot begin to keep up with the refreshments!

Sorry Jean - that's what I take the squidlette for. She's my personal child slave.

Thanks for the visual, Liz. Guys in glasses? Really? How about guys in cowboy hats?

Jean!!!! Welcome back!! Tell us everything. How was it!! Other than the ice fiasco.

Hi, Squidster.

I had to help lead a parent meeting after school where I talked about the 1-3rd grade math and language arts/mechanics curriculum. Now I am off to an autism lecture so I couldn't make it to class tonight.

Hope everyone had a nice day.

Hey PJ! Hope school is going well!

Hi Blue!!

What! Ya got nothin for me?

 

[apirateslifeforme]

DM - is that village handmade? It's really cool!

Yay, Darth Squidious is here!

 

[jonestavern]

OMGosh! Retroville is soooo cute!

I think I'm liking the diner, bowling alley & TV shop best!

Brrr! That carhop must be freezzzzing!

Liz, the Diva of Nail Polish!
Where the rest of us paint, you create!

Seriously, a topcoat & I only meet a few times yearly~

Which reminds me: time to call for a pedi!

 

[Disneyolic]

DM - is that village handmade? It's really cool!

Thanks. No not handmade. I bought it at JoAnn Fabrics 3 years ago. It was a 1 year thing and I bought it all!

Thanks. I really liked it because it was different.

My slave gets balky! I did not have the foresight to make another one to tide me over in my old age!
Perhaps I should hire the Squidlet?

Sheesh! Does anyone else feel that elevators are not the ideal form of conveyence whilst in the party mode

Then a short tumble, swoosh, wall ricochet down the long hallway to the vending/ice area.
Then the Tummy Wave ride up to the 3rd floor

Ewwwwww, then trip, tumble, trip, trip back down those lonesome hallways.

Oh, Helpful Hint
it so helps to write yr room number in ballpoint on yr hand.
