Good Morning, DU'ers!

[Clintmax]

:donut:
You know, I ususally get up around 5:30am, make coffee, then log on and have a fun time talking with everybody. TODAY, I slept till 7:30am! Good GODS, I hate to sleep late like that! :rofl: The day is half gone! I hope everyone is doing OK!

[In_The_Wind]

1. I missed you

sleepy head

[Clintmax]

3. Good morning, Miss Joan!

I missed everyone here also! I don't know WHY I slept so long!! I didn't realize how everyone liked my morning posts...I'll do better from now on!

17. I'll be out stacking wood ~ in a week or two

I bought a new wood stove.

oopsie ...I did it again edit to correct the link *note to self PREVIEW*

[Clintmax]

19. Wow! That stove looks fantastic!

And I love the smell of wood burning in a stove or fireplace!

[In_The_Wind]

29. It is going to SAVE a ton of money $ $ $

This house uses over 2,300 gallons of oil each year ... ... I have to find some way of cutting down!

[Clintmax]

32. That's probably one of the best things about it!

Saving money is ALWAYS a good thing!

[In_The_Wind]

33. I 'locked-in' on this winter's heating oil prices so I may have a credit

at the end of the season ...

I do plan to install solar panels in the near future ...

[Clintmax]

34. That will help too!

Are the winters in Germany tough? Lots of snow and stuff?

[In_The_Wind]

39. Darlin' ...

you'll need to redirect that question to Miss Honeychurch...

I'm north of you ... by 1,200 miles not in Germany!

[Clintmax]

40. Oh hells! I'm sorry...I guess I got my countries mixed up!

I guess you DO have cold winters, huh? :rofl:

[In_The_Wind]

42. I'll forgive you .............

it is early & you slept late ... *giggle*

[Clintmax]

43. Thanks, Miss Joan!

:hug:

[ahem]

2. Good morning, Sleepyhead!

Glad you finally decided to join us :)

[Clintmax]

Hello, Ahem!

I should have been here around 6 this morning! I'm glad to be here now! You doing OK?

[ahem]

12. Yeah, I'm okay

Had a rough night, but I'm feeling a little better this morning. This is one of those days where I'll have to talk myself into doing each little thing. I'm currently trying to work up to making tea. It's going to be a long morning ;)

We've come to count on your "Good Morning, DU" threads around here! Glad you made it. How's the day going for you? I know you early risers tend to hate late starts. Does it throw the whole day off?

[Clintmax]

14. Oh hells yes!

My whole day is going to be a mess now! But It'll be OK. I'll make the best of it! Sorry to hear you had a rough night. If I were there, I'd make your tea for ya and bring it to you in bed. :hug:

[ahem]

20. ~*~swoon~*~

If I were there, I'd make your tea for ya and bring it to you in bed.

After the night I've had, I just can't tell you how sweet that sounds! Oh, Clintmax, you managed to say just what I needed to hear this morning. I tell you, when someone's feeling down, a little kindness goes so far :hug:

I hope you get into the swing of your day despite the late start! You deserve a great one what with all the good will you spread around here.

[Clintmax]

24. Well thank you, Ahem!

So do you. I always look forward to your "Good morning, Clintmax." reply too. I am glad you were still logged on this morning when I finally DID get my lazy ass outta bed! :hug:

[ahem]

30. Well, aren't we all a regular love-fest around here this morning...

Now that I've got my piping hot cup of Pomegranate Rooibos tea and a bagel the day seems a little brighter.

Have a good one, Clintmax!

[Clintmax]

31. Yes we are!

:rofl: It's good to have a love fest once in a while! I hope you have a good one too, Ahem!

[bicentennial_baby]

4. goooood morning!

:donut: :hi:

[Clintmax]

6. Hello, hello Bicentennial!

Good to see you again! :hug:

[tjwmason]

5. Are you sure that it wasn't something - or somebody - keeping you in bed?

:evilgrin:

Nonetheless - we all missed you round here.

Good morning. :hug:

[Clintmax]

7. LOL! No, I really did just get up...

I see everyone did...I didn't realize how much everyone got used to my morning posts. I'll have to make sure I don't do that again! :hug:

[tjwmason]

9. You do deserve a lie-in every now and again.

and the expectation only makes us even more happy once you get here.

[Clintmax]

11. Well that's sweet of you to say!

I always look forward to talking YOU and everyone here in the early am. I don't like to stay in bed for so long though.

[tjwmason]

22. I'm touched

that such a sweet and gorgeous man likes our little chats. :hug:

I'm a complete lazy bugger - when I'm not working I'm frequently still in bed at noon.

[Clintmax]

27. Noon? Well good gods!

I never sleep THAT late! I know a lot of people do though. I just can't. And yes...I LOVE our little chats! You get my day started on the positive note it needs to! Thanks, Dude!

[tjwmason]

44. I did say that I am a lazy bugger

perhaps I should make a special effort and get up at 5:30 sometime ( :scared: ).

[Clintmax]

45. Perhaps you SHOULD...

Do it a couple days in a row...who knows? You might LIKE that time of day!

[tjwmason]

46. It would leave me looking and feeling like death warmed-up

for the rest of the day.

I find it impossible to get to sleep before about 11 - even that takes a lot of work to get used to.

I've never been good at getting up early, even as a young-sprog I slept soundly and until a late hour.

[MissHoneychurch]

8. Good morning

about time you showed up :)

other people are up since HOURS

[Clintmax]

10. Hello, Miss Honey!

Yeah, I know! And I usually am too! When I woke up and saw the time, I was thunderstruck! I NEVER sleep this late. But...I'm here now! :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

13. Nice to have you here now

there is something missing without you posting :pals:

[Clintmax]

15. Awww!

I didn't realize. I won't let it happen again. Everyone here is SO nice and I love you ALL! :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

16. you see, we love ya too

:loveya:

[Clintmax]

18. DU'ers are the BEST!

:loveya: :bounce:

[MissHoneychurch]

21. true, so true

I really enjoy talking to people from the States (and GreatBritain and Germany and Australia)

[Heidi]

23. Good for you, sleepin' late, Clintmax!

:hug:

[Clintmax]

25. HEIDI!!!

How are ya, Sweetie! I missed you this early morning!

[Heidi]

26. DU missed you too, friend.

(And thank you for your kind words about my work.)

:hug:

[Clintmax]

28. Oh you're welcome!

I love seeing it when you post pictures! You're quite an artist!

[swimboy]

35. Mornin' to ya! Have a mellow day!

B-)

[Clintmax]

36. I hope you do too, Swim dude!

Maybe I'LL go for a swin in a little while!

[swimboy]

38. Awesome!!

[chknltl]

37. Why top of the morn to you sir!

sorry about yesterday morning, I had just got done with a bad argument with my daughter and her boyfreind.... when I looked here in the lounge I saw your "Good Morning" thread with 0 posts so I posted a sad hello on it. Better judgment took over shortly, hence the self edit. I went back to my fave daughter and worked stuff out. I have noticed a good deal of "shell-shock" going on here in the lounge.
It has been suggested that intelligent folks throughout America are suffering a bit of post traumatic stress syndrome. I think there is something to this, my kid and I never fight like that. Like many Americans we have been glued to CNN and etc. You are just getting up and I am off to bed now. I wish you well today.

[Clintmax]

41. I wish you well too, Chk!

I'm glad to hear you two worked everything out! Sleep tight! :hug:
