    MaggieMay, love the new avatar! 10 years??? She should be getting you a basket! [smilie=th_biggestgrin]

     

    Honeybear, good luck on the final and yay for DH being home even sooner!

     

    They're forecasting a huge storm for tomorrow that will dump a lot of rain on us in a very short time. We definitely need it, but hoping everyone doesn't go crazy on the roads [smilie=th_thanimeomega_emoticon

     

    Tonight I'm burning Henri Bendel Vanilla Woods, an oldie from the back of the cabinet, and Wylde Ivy A Through the Woods is in the bedroom melter.

    Rivercat, how did you like the Glade Pumpkin Pie Diner melt?

     

    Today my mom and I took the boys to Knott's. DS # 1 was sooo excited to ride the train and see the Christmas trees. He's at such a fun age to take to amusement parks now. Of course, the day was made even SWEETER with my mom loading him up on sugar- it's a Grammy's prerogative! Haha.

     

    I like the scent a lot: pumpkin and brown sugar, not very bakery. The melts and candles both have decent throw, but the candles tend to tunnel. They're very inexpensive, so I'm not too upset about that ;)

     

     

    Knotts is so fun with little kids! My mom used to take me there when it was just a few rides and we lived not too far away so I have very fond memories [smilie=yes]

     

    It is snowing here, which isn't fun ended up in a ditch this morn. [smilie=th_ANGRY_10] I'm fine, had to have a recker to get the car out. Have a great day.

     

    Ugh, cookielady :( I'm glad to hear you're ok, though!

     

    Getting as many ingredients lined up for tomorrow as possible so I can hopefully sleep in a little bit [smilie=thzzz003] Burning B&BW Heirloom Pumpkin and melting Nene's Pumpkin Butter.

     

    Have a good evening!

    I put it back down very gently. lol.

     

    [smilie=th_jaja] Yikes, cookie! That's pricey even for Pottery Barn.

     

    Aria, how are you liking it? I seriously considered getting a seasonal job there until my regular work hours got too crazy to predict when I'd be able to squeeze it in. I love Target, though it's gotta be pure insanity for the employees at this time of year! :wacko:

     

    Burning B&BW Autumn this evening.

    Rivercat - If U find it and think you'll like it I'd suggest getting several boxes. ;) I went back to get more and the shelf was empty...none to be had. :(

     

    Yikes! I completely forgot to look yesterday--I'd better get back over there tomorrow. [smilie=th_thanimeomega_emoticon

     

    Took a hike through the woods today....it's where I feel most at home. [smilie=th_slider_flirt]

     

    Sounds lovely, MaggieMae! [smilie=cloud_9]

     

     

    He said DS # 1 did well in all of the tests, so I'm hoping it all goes well on Thursday too.

     

    Yay, Biolaeagles! Fingers crossed for Thursday.

     

    Burning Glade Pumpkin Pie Diner this evening.

    Speaking of which...found another goody in the grocery store - Quaker's 'limited edition' Pumpkin Spice instant oatmeal. This if the first time I've seen a limited edition flavor, but I'll take it! [smilie=th_200912104451]

     

    I've gotta look for that--been in a breakfast rut lately [smilie=th_i-m_so_happy]

     

    Tonight I'm burning Glade Sparkling Spruce.

    Hi, all! I hope everyone who's been hit by the freezing temps is warm and snug, along with their loved ones [smilie=th_autumboy]

     

    I had to take my new kitty Linus in for an enema yesterday :sSc_eek3: the poor little guy didn't eat the first couple days he was here and then only wanted canned food, so he didn't get enough fiber. Now he's eating both foods and has been urinating fine all along, so hopefully no more unpleasant trips to the vet anytime soon!

     

    Burning Glade Pumpkin Pie Diner, a nice, cozy pumpkin and brown sugar :sHa_thumbgoodjob:

    Hi, all! It's been crazy lately, starting with my modem going out, travel, work, etc. so haven't been melting as much wax as usual.

     

    Cookie, great thread title! I'm working on being more thankful on a daily basis, so it's a good reminder [smilie=th_i-m_so_happy]

     

    Aria, Ozzy is adorable :wub:

     

    Biolaeagles, hang in there [smilie=th_empathy] A friend of mine had her youngest in speech therapy for a few years and he loved it--it really increased his confidence when he started school.

     

    A new kitty came to live with me last week. Linus is a very timid rescue who had a tough time early on, including having an eye infection that has permanently damaged his right eye. My vet's IT guy was fostering him, but he has 2 other cats who push Linus away so he hasn't bonded well. They thought I'd be a good match because he's the only cat and I'm pretty low key (i.e. boring [smilie=th_biggestgrin]) So far, he's mostly staying under my bed and coming out at night to explore, but he doesn't flinch when I check on him anymore, so baby steps!

     

    Tonight burning B&BW Heirloom Pumpkin.

    Rivercat - How did the tart do? I've had some of theirs that lost the scent in just a couple of years. dry.gif

     

    I'm melting it now in the bedroom. Definitely not up to "fresh" standards, but I can still smell it when I go in there. Probably good I found it when I did!

     

    Today I watched a friend's kids since she is pregnant and is really sick. It was a handful taking care of five children under five! Whew! Also, we are starting to potty train DS # 1....oh boy.....th_thanimeomega_emoticon_97.jpg

     

    Yikes! That was super nice of you to take on to help your friend out. I hope you were able to get some rest afterward! [smilie=th_yellow5]

     

    We're finally having some nice cool weather! I'm burning B&BW Autumn and melting the old YC Trick or Treat tart.
