Good morning friends.  We are getting remnants of your cold weather here in the islands.  Of course, it is nothing like what you are experiencing, but for a tropical creature like me, it is very cold.  At night, with all the windows closed, we need to use blankets and it feels as if you had an air conditioner on the high setting.  Even my dogs are using sweat shirts, lol.  Have a great day

Good morning everyone! All the graphics are so wonderful in here.

Gala, that is so c-c-c-c-cold! I'll bet the children are happy about it though. I used to LOVE snow days home from school.

Hope you got your "rear in gear" Jean! You will get it all done, you always do--right? I had my stressful "i'm never going to get it done" moment a couple days ago and now I have only one more present to buy and 3 to wrap. Oh yeah, and 2 more cards! hahaha!

Have a wonderful Thursday everyone & bundle-up Gala!

Yes, it's wet/cold here too Jean - you and I definitely have the same weather, don't we?

Well, I lost my "shorts" at the casino! LOL!  Didn't lose much $$ as I never take a credit card with. Don't really gamble much, but I do like to go maybe once a year.

I've got most of my shopping done, just a few little odds n' ends left--like stocking stuffers. Yes, I still stuff a stocking for my 24 yr. old daughter!

Off to work with me then - hope I don't have to slide my way there! Have a happy day everyone!

Hello Dear Gala, hope all is well with you. Monday, 8:31 AM



Good Morning everyone,  I hope you had a great week-end.  We have had little snow over the week-end but light freezing rain and it caused many accidents.  I hope you are all free from the hazardous weather.  Have a great week and stay safe out there.  Sending BIG hugs to everyone.

It sounds as though everyone is very busy.  Here too, just not enough hours in the day. 

AldiLa we have had the same weather as you and this morning it was freezing rain.  It has warmed up a bit and it is melting.  My yard is a mess.  I have not posted about it because it is so frustrating but my roof/siding is not completed yet.  ARGGG!  We had nine guys here yesterday putting up sheet insulation and tearing of the old siding and when they left I just wanted to cry at the mess they made of everything.  They indicated they will be done by the 23th, needless to say no lights outside it looks so barren.  Ok I will quit whining now, I have a warm home and I am indeed grateful for that. 

Oh by the way as you know I live in MI and we are becoming a lot like Vegas we have Casinos all over MI.  I hope you have good luck.  I think they are hurting because of the economy and so jackpots are hard to come by. 

None of my daughters will be here for Christmas this year   so we will have our gathering after Christmas.

Sorry about rambling, I am alone this morning so lot's of time to talk.  Have a great day and stay safe out there.  Sending hugs.

Good  morning everyone!

Olga, working at the post office this time of year has to be very stressful indeed! I mailed all of my Christmas packages right before our Thanksgiving, 11/25. The lines were long even then!

Thanks for the sunshine Jennie . .it seems to have warmed things up a bit as it is in the 30's now. Freezing rain & all the snow has just about melted. The streets are an ice rink right now.

Jean, will your daughter be coming home for Christmas this year? Because I only have the one child, I always dread the thought of her moving far away. I think I would have to follow her wherever she goes. Poor thing, she'll never get rid of me!

I'm having my lazy day today Olga . . will go to a casino in Milwaukee, Wisconsin later today. Going to wear my lucky motorcycle boots! Would love to win the jackpot and buy all new kitchen appliances--I have them all picked out already! LOL!

Have a happy Sunday everyone!

Hello Ladies!

So nice to come again and read your posts.

Jennie i love your hot Santa image...i mean in the hot..

It looks funny.

AldiLa...no snow here but yes...some another thing also can bring Christmas mood and of course i should be very happy shopping with you. I think in the Usa Christmas is more fun, there is a big tradition of how to decorate the cities...

Today i take a lazy day, i need it. Tomorrow we will not at home so much and the next week will be long, we will work on Saturday...post office is very busy nowadays.

Have a great weekend!

It's the freezin' season here it MI too.  We had quite a storm with high winds and blowing snow.  It is bitter cold here.  Not the kind of weather for outdoor activities unless your a child and they do not seem to mind.

We are busy with preparation for Christmas, and yes AldiLa I would send you some goodies. 

Jenny I too envy your weather my daughter called last evening from Fla. and let me know she was grilling on the patio.  Grrr.

Have a great week-end everyone and stay safe out there.  Sending hugs.

Oh, it's sooooo cold here in Chicago .. I'm so very jealous of your weather Jennie! Winds gusting 45 mph . . a high of 8 with windchills -10 today. It's very hard to go out into this weather, scrape your windows and freeze your way off to work. Alas, that is exactly what I now am going to do!

Soak  up some of that sunshine for me, will you Jennie? Have a happy day all!

Good morning all!

How fun that you met friends from Care2 Jean! I've only done that once & it was very recent. Met a lady that I've been friends with here on Care2 for 5 years. She had a 2-hour layover at the Chicago airport!

Olga, I love spicy wine, 80's music & shopping! That trip sounds like so much fun . . oh wouldn't I just love to do that with you some day!

We are suppose to get up to 10 inches of snow today . . I really hope they are wrong!

Good Monday to everyone.  It has been a very busy week-end for us as we had friends from Care2 in our home for lunch yesterday and it was awesome to finally put a face on these these wonderful folks.  I wish we could all get together at some central location and really get to know each other.

Olga sounds as though you had a great time, shopping and drinking wine, unfortunately no one does that where I live.  Guess I could bring my own in a travel mug. LOL

AldiLa love the sculpture.  Sorry about having to work.  I miss working but I don't miss having to get up on winter mornings and clean the car and freeze your behind off.  Have a great week my friend.

Jenny great to see you here.  Your an asset to any group your in. Sending hugs.

shopping was great with Christmas music and hot spicy wine,lol...and we ate in the plaza (shopping centre) at a little concert with the 80's music. The singers were really talented people.

Today i do what you did yesterday Jennie.

AldiLa have a great show! I hope more succesful then lately.

Ee..sure, take your time and fingers cross...

Gala did you begin to decorate or will you do that only at the end of the month?

Have fun at the advent market today Olga, I would so love to go with you!

 Good afternoon & Happy Thanksgiving Gala and everyone!

I hope you are all enjoying Thanksgiving if you celebrate this holiday and if not, will count your blessings and pray for those who are less fortunate.

Well, we did not cook lobster today. Instead, we decided to help out at a local diner that opens it's doors every Thanksgiving for 30+ years now and offers free Turkey meals.

Turned out they had plenty of help, so we just supported that restaurant and paid for our meals today. Beleive it or not, I'm not a fan of turkey, so I had a gyros and a bowl of avgolemeno (a greek soup of lemon chicken & rice)

Just a peaceful late afternoon now, going to watch a movie in a bit "hannah & her sisters". It's a Thanksgiving movie, an old one.

Blessings to you all today . . and a big hug

Good morning all! Yes, Aldi is a grocery store here too. Apparently, this dog was found all mangy & hungry behind the Aldi grocery store, so the rescue people named him Aldi!

Many European countries have the tradition of putting up the tree on Christmas Eve, in fact--raised by my German Mother, that is what we did growing up.

It's nice to have the tree up for longer though .. I really like having it up for Thanksgiving. Speaking of which, does your country celebrate Thanksgiving? If so, what are everyone's Thanksgiving plans?

My daughter is driving to St. Louis, Missouri for Thanksgiving . Her BF's family is there. She will be home for Christmas though! My Mom is not feeling well . . doesn't feel well enough to travel the 2 hours to come to my house, nor does she feel well enough to host any sort of a dinner.   I guess it will be must my BF, Jeff and I. We are not that fond of turkey though, and at this point, I think we will have lobster with bernaise sauce! LOL!

This afternoon, I'm actually meeting a friend from Care2 at the O'Hare airport! She is coming back from a cruise with her husband and lives in Canada. I've been friends with her here at Care2 for 4 years and we've never met, so I'm excited!

Have a wonderful day everyone!

Do you used to decorate the tree so early? Here only on 24 dec...though last year we did on 23...and i think this year also..

Good to read you had a fine time.

Jean, yes, days run sooo fast...i agree, so good to try out new tastes and reciepes but not easy to translate well from hungarian and the ingrediants are aslo different..maybe similair but different.

Hey AldiLa, I looked at the clock and saw you were posting and thought wow you were running really late this morning, then I remembered you have the WHOLE week off.  Enjoy my friend.  I can't remember the name of this dish that was being prepared but I am curious as to what it is.  I think it was soup of some kind.

AldiLa it sounds as though your doing a lovely job of decorating for the holidays.  You inquired as to whether my girls do the cookie thing, once in a while they do, but they all work full time and in some cases two jobs.  I still try to do some cookie making with my grans but my kitchen is so small it does not allow for many group things.  Life was so much more simple when my girls were growing up.  I miss the old ways.

Getting started on my holiday decorating today. I'm washing my Christmas bedding. On my bed I put white flannel sheets with red christmas trees & a red duvet, and in the guest bedroom I put beige snowman sheets with an evergreen duvet.

Jean, do your children now keep up the tradition and bake cookies with their children? When my daughter was little, I always put a small tree in her bedroom too. If you have small children, they just love having their own tree!

Olga, I hope your trip to Budapest was wonderful! Enjoy your Saturday everyone!

Another chilly morning here in MI.  Lot's of frost.  The sun is shining now and it will warm into the mid fifties today so it shouldn't be too bad.  I hope the weather is lovely where you are and I wish you all a wonderfilled day.  Sending hugs.

Our Christmas shopping will be very limited this year as we wait to see what the new year brings with the economy.  I must have dental surgery before Christmas and it is very expensive so that will be my Christmas present.  We too will buy for the children.

Hello Freinds!

AldiLa, I also shall miss youu....take care lovely and hurry back to us.

Jean, this year we decided again that we will not buy big things to eachothers only kids will recieve little more. As adult we can appreciate the extra quality foods, drinks, pampering, decoratons and such...we closed out the money a little...or we try to not spend money for gifts. Of course nobody can stand to buy that some little cute something....This year i shall let it for the last weeks i think, in the open air advent market i used to find what i like and fun to walk in the light, drinking hot wine or punch...my sons also adore that mood....

in conclusion: i do not really shopping for Christmas.

aaannnd...my Grandma will be 80 (if God help us) on 27 dec...and we organize a party to her in a nice restaurant...i think to be together like on a wedding is the greatest thing, we are excited and hardly can wait.

 i am on vacation yepppyyyyyy....until 30 nov...

Have a great day!

We will miss you AldiLa, take care of yourself while your away.  Sorry to hear you did not do well at the showing.  Money is tight everywhere.  If one has money the sales are incredible. 

Have a great week everyone.  Sending hugs.

Good morning friends! We did not too so good at the art show, people are still very short on money these days. The artists with things at a lower price did very well though.

I've got a lot of my holiday shopping done already! Went shopping yesterday with my daughter and got a lot of things. Typically, I'll shop almost every day during my lunch hour at work as the stores are less crowded then.

I'll not be around the next couple of days as I have to travel to another office for my job and will be in a hotel without a computer. Will miss you all & be back Wed. night or Thurs. morning! Have a good week everyone!

How is everyone today?  It is 6 a.m. here so I am not sure what kind of a day we are going to have.  Very quiet at the moment since everyone is still sleeping.  Kind of nice to be up without a flurry of activity.  Have a great Saturday everyone.

Boy the stores are really pushing sales and Christmas already, anyone shopping yet?  I have a few things put away but no major shopping.

Helllooo  lovelyppl!

I am here again, yes, not so much as it was in the past but i come and i am happy to be here.

When i had a job where i could use the comp of course i came more often or when i was at home...life is changing, yes, many things changed in our bigger surrounding too. Too much ppl lost their job, became dipressed, many use care2 for chatting in the background, many of us tired of to post around..this is.

Never care, lol, we are here! I love you Jean, Gala, AldiLa, Kathleen, Ee P, Che, everyone!

AldiLa, i hope you both will have a succesful exhibiton.

A little warmer here today, actually no frost this a.m. looks to be a pretty nice day. 

Things are so slow in the groups,  I am wondering where everyone is.  I do hope everyone is well and just busy. Sending hugs.

We had a hard frost yesterday too Jean & I had to scrape my windows before work--problem was, I couldn't find my scraper! I wound-up using some tool in the garage.
