The first snow- and a few good men!

Good morning everyone! It is a cloudy day here today, but I guess everyday can't be sunny.
Is everyone ready for their Thanksgiving meal? I feel like I am now, I went and got some more things from the store yesterday, I sort of  feel like I will need another gallon of milk though. My oldest son loves cereal! Well, he can eat a whole box in one day, I have told him he has to choose more carefully, this stuff costs money!
I am STILL sick you all, it comes and goes, I did have my husband pick up some Vicks' vapor rub and I rubbed it on my neck and chest, heated up my rice bag and then put a towel around me. It seems to have helped some, I am just doing everything I can.
I also had to buy a new coffee maker again already. I was a bit sad since this one we only had maybe one year, even less I am thinking. One nice thing was I got it from Costco, and I just had made mention to the clerk that I had to get this because the other coffee pot had stopped working already. It was a Cusinart and fairly expensive, well, he told me I could bring it back even if I didn't have my receipt and my box! They can look it up in their computer, and refund the money back!  I thought this was GOOD news! So, this time around, I bought the Mr. Coffee brand. We will see how it fairs. My last one before this was a Krups and it lasted for like 6-7 years.
I did get  to meet up with a good friend of mine though and have a Caribou Coffee, my new favorite is a Turtle Mocha with white chocolate (skim, extra hot). YUM!  I had a large, since I had no coffee, I was in dire need! LOL!
Oh, and then can you see it in the picture? I got a surprise in the mail from a new friend, but feels like I have known her always~ anyhow she MADE this little mini prairie bonnet on a peg rack! Isn't it sweet? I placed it here for the time being. I already thanked her, but I wasn't expecting that at all!
I have gotten a few of the snowmen out, I won't be going full force I am sure, I just don't have it in me at this time, unless something miraculous happens! I put a few of my favorite ornies on the little twig tree~ my boys! Look at how cute they were? They still are, but just growing up. I miss those days.
Had to show you all what I have done so far in the bathroom, not much, but I did get the one shelf hung, still working on the other, and I am just stumped on what to do with the towel bar. I REALLY don't want the sea shells~ but I have these "things~plugs" in the wall, you know the anchors? Well, that star rack is just not quite there, and I am not sure HOW I can get around this. Any thoughts? If I would have taken those out~ there are four total, it would have been a disaster! Should I just bite the bullet and put up the sea shells? I can't even find something comparable to put up. I said to the DH~ WHY did you have to choose sea shells of all things?
I included a photo of Zipper doing what he likes best~ drinking from the faucet! That silly cat! He likes triple berry muffins too, don't you know? LOL! He just knows when I have something!
We did get snow, it was around three inches, it will be gone by Thanksgiving though, I hear it's going to be in the 50's.
I plan on getting the tree up by this weekend I hope. If I could get the lead out of my backside, I could get my other coat rack done~ I just need to paint it. I have been putting off way too many things, I just need to do them! I relented on letting them hang their gear on the shelf, but I said they won't be putting stuff on top!
That's why I need to finish my other rack! LOL! It will have something for them to place their hats and mitts in!
Well, I hope you all have a blessed Thanksgiving, and enjoy the day!
God bless!
