Nice to see you......hope you're doing ok.......and you enjoy that candy, you deserve it........



Odd day today......rain and wind all morning...then when we went out just after 1 it was 80 degrees.......I had boots and a big jumper on.......I was boiled in the supermarket....which was heaving!! It was like Christmas......not sure where everyone came from today.........

Watching Potter tonight, Philosophers Stone.....my favourite, or Sorcerers Stone as it's known in the States.......

Weekend again..........

 

[BagOLaughs]

Just a quick crash through. Life is so busy at the moment I'm missing the Dis!

Enjoy Harry Potter Shumi and I hope everyone else has an amazing Halloween! yey!

Watching the Whoathon on BBCA and enjoyed seeing the Weeping Angel episode again don't blink...always scares the crap out of me no matter how many times I've seen it.

Happy Weekend and Happy Halloween to all

Oh my goodness..... Although it may appear so I did not die of my concussion. It hit me pretty good for 2 weeks though... and haven't been back since. I AM SO BEHIND! SO much has happened!!!

I'm going to go a bit backwards... Patricia also hit us. We sustained a bit of damage at Cape San Blas. We have really bad erosion problems as is... one of our houses lost a boardwalk and our big rock wall that protects the ONLY road in or out was washed out at the low point. Thankfully it did not impact the road. However, Patricia was nothing but tropical moisture by the time she got to us!!! WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?!

I did finally get all of my halloween decor up. It will all be coming down soon now though... I just waited until the end of the month to share! hahaha I also do my stairway banister but I dont have a picture of that. The mantle looks a bit more finished now but I dont have a picture and my sister has already started dissecting it. I think I'm going to keep the harry potter bookshelf up all year round. Is that tacky? hahaha


Other than surviving my stupid concussion, surviving Patricia, and finally getting all my halloween stuff the way I want it nothing much is new. Just busy busy! We're about to start inventories so I'm going to be traveling a lot between now and Thanksgiving. I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to get everything I have to do between now and the 21st done. I have NO IDEA.

I've also somehow become a dance mom... and I dont have children. I've been volunteered to bake over 100 muffins for Nov 14 holiday kick off and over 100 cupcakes for our kickin' cancer fundraiser in December. this should be fun. I love to bake but as much as I have going on with work I'm very concerned to how thats going to get done too. Alas.. it all works out in the end eventually.

Hope everyone is good! Seen some are sick, some are cold, and some are as busy as everyone else. It's 80 degrees today if anyone wants to come south. I don't see highs dipping below 80 in my 15 day forecast yet.... I WANT WINTER!

I'll stop rambling now. HEY EVERYONE!

Vicki, even I like that episode and I'm not a Whovian at all!! Creepy or what.........hope you had good Halloween too..........



Had good Halloween........ended up in local golf club for a party, where some were dressed up.......we even had a Michael Myers........he creeped me out big time, of course my husband had told him how freaked out I am with him and of course he made the most of that news......I did see him as soon as we went in........so no sneaking up on me........even so.........

Then came home and watched Halloween......original one!! Gets me every time.......

Beautiful day here and so warm considering it's now November.........went quad biking.......fun but I ache again.......off to watch Mexican GP.........

Monday again tomorrow.........

 

[schumigirl]

Foggy day here, very foggy........lots of flight disruption!!

I tried to post earlier on IPad and got redirected to Budget Board ......read a couple of threads and wow some share a lot of personal financial info over there!!! Really!!!

Hoping mac is doing better and Keisha has her trip to the sun this week............means we have to wait till you get back for rest of your trip report........

Happy Monday........

 

[Lynne G]

We got a total of 5 kids for Halloween. Needless to stay, the family is enjoying the left over candy. It's a beautiful day, and with no longer being in daylight saving time, I now travel in the early morning darkness again. Well, at least the sunlight will be around a little longer tonight.

Hope Mac is feeling better, Keisha too, and enjoying vacation, and Mrs. Bluer's foot feeling better too.

Robo, I hope you have had your coffee already. Just a reminder! LOL

Belle - hope all is well.

Egad, TinyD, beach erosion was non-existent thankfully where we are. Seems the storm happily missed, though parts of our shore are still feeling the effects of Sandy. Yep, even though several years ago now. Cute decorations, and no, having harry all year round is not odd! Good luck with the baking. While I enjoy baking, that's alot of cupcakes.

Welcome to November all! First Monday of the month. And we're going to be in the low 70's all week. Ahhh, that's what we call Indian Summer. I'll take it.

Hey Lynne morning I'am having my big cup of coffee this morning. Only allowed clear liquids today, but thank goodness coffee is on the list of allowable drinks. Having surgery tomorrow. Family in town for a visit and moral support. I had a lot of help unhalloweening the house yesterday. Enjoying the decorations. My Daughter-in-law helped me get my trees up for Christmas.

Tiny d love the Halloween decorations. Glad you are feeling better after your concussion.

Mac sending you get well wishes.

Mrs bluer eat some candy for me

Schumi have a few glasses of wine for me. Will miss that for next few days

BagOLaughs enjoy your engagement planning. You and Martin are a cute couple. I think Martin is a keeper. He did a very good job on the engagement ring. It is very pretty.

 

[tinydancer09]

Do I HAVE to take the decorations down? ugh.... love the decorating... hate the undoing. I wish I could just magically change the color of the lights. I do the same style for christmas. Just leave them up and not turn them on for the month of November you know?

Thanksgiving planning started yesterday. I make spreadsheets for everything.... Universal Trips, Disney Trips, business rate sheets, business inventories, thanksgiving, christmas, paper good inventories for christmas and thanksgiving.... I mean I have about 15 saved on my desktop that I use frequently. The thanksgiving one takes the cake though. It's three pages Takes a lot of planning to feed 20 immediate family members. Shopping officially starts tomorrow... oh boy.

It's HOT HOT HOT! Today with a very slight change of severe weather. I think mother nature is mad they too down twister the ride....

Well now we know why you've been busy......lol.......is the Cotswolds on your list of possible venues??? Saw you had been mooching there........it's a beautiful area.......we love the odd weekend visit there........



Fog is starting to clear here I think......was awful out driving in it tonight.....people just don't take conditions into account and slow down..........after the beautiful weekend we had, it's gone cold now. Very cold.

Early night I think tonight........

 

[schumigirl]

Need a kick in the pants this morning to get moving........so tired.

Fog is starting to clear though a little........

Ironing first this morning.........

 

[Lynne G]

Robo - thinking good thoughts for you and hoping your surgery is successful and you're able to enjoy coffee and wine soon.

DD got her cast off. She's two handed again. Thankfully, fully healed. She's my rough and tumble girl.

Wahoo to BagO, nice pictures on the wedding forum. Beautiful ring and congratulations on the engagement.

Schumi, hope you've got your energy back today. Not like this minion:

Absolutely beautiful sunrise today. No fog or clouds to speak of. Well, 45 degrees, but that's ok, close to 70 by afternoon.


Tiny D, so many spreadsheets! I just make a last minute list of what will be served. We generally have around the same amount of people. I love that meal, as it's the second time of year, we are all together.

Can't believe the Halloween stuff was swiftly removed from most of the stores, and there's Christmas everywhere. I'm not quite ready, as I can't think of Christmas until after Thanksgiving.

Hope you are enjoying this Tuesday.

 

[BagOLaughs]

but thank goodness coffee is on the list of allowable drinks. Having surgery tomorrow.

I hope everything has gone well for you! Sending happy thoughts!

Do I HAVE to take the decorations down? ugh.... love the decorating... hate the undoing.

Don't take them down, if you don't take them down the Halloween won't be over. Isn't that how it works?

is the Cotswolds on your list of possible venues???

Yup the Cotswolds is pretty much our most viable options. Martin's family is mostly in Birmingham and mine are from Berkshire/Wiltshire area. We went venue hunting on Tuesday last week and found 4 really nice places. It was a nightmare to choose so we've provisionally booked two and are waiting for a final quote from one of them before making a decision.

There is a lot to organize but much like booking a holiday I'm really enjoying all the planning haha

Thank you very much Lynne I had the same thought about the Halloween stuff in stores! However I must admit I quite like going round after and picking up some bargains for future costumes.

I hope everyone is enjoying the fall/autumn weather. Its my favorite time of year and we had some really foggy mornings and evenings the past few days
