An oldwives tale says for every fog in August you will have a snow in Winter. We had fog this morning so I sure hope it's Christmas snow that we get. :merrytree:

One of our favorite shows, the Middle, starts its final season this Fall. I can't wait to see their last Christmas episode. :snowjump:

Saddened to hear of the passing of Glen Cambell. He left us some great songs including some Christmas classics. :rabstar:

If it holds true, then we will be getting at least 2 snows in middle Georgia.
Hopefully at Christmas time. :D

Christmas Crazy wrote:I totally forgot to tell you all. Two weeks ago today I totaled my car when I hit a deer on the way home from work. It was 2003 Buick LeSabre with 167k miles on it. It was a solid car with a great engine in it. I hated to lose it.
But God has taken care of everything for me. After getting a check from insurance and purchasing another car, a 2002 Buick Park Avenue with only 106k miles on it, I'm coming out ahead by $1300 and 60k miles. This new car should last another 100k miles.

Merry Christmas in August to me!


Now that is a God-sized Christmas present! Happy for you elf friend.

According to Bing Crosby, who was just on the radio, it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas.
