WORKWORKWORK for Susan

Susan is finishing up a long weekend from Hell. She worked all week and then on Friday night, she worked at the Arena for a concert. At least it was Christmassy...the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. She got home about 12:30.

Saturday we got up at 8 and went to church to help prepare the Thanksgiving Brunch for the next day after our service.

We worked there until noon. Susan got a little afternoon rest but then had to be back at the Arena for a Motley Crew concert. That kept her there until midnight again.

Then we got up at 6 to get to church so she could get everything set up for the brunch.

We again got out of there about noon and then it was back to the Arena for a 5:00 Hockey match. She finally got home about 9. We headed for the hot tub and then off to bed.

Snow Season Begins

We shall mark this day as that in which we received our first fall of snow. It's not major. We didn't get six feet like they are getting in Buffalo, New York.

We got a dusting. A nice soft whitening over the landscape. It continues to snow as I write but I don't believe it is going to be anything substantial.

I need to update events since I've ignored the blog for a couple of weeks.

After a wonderfully warm Autumn, the weather turned icy cold right after Halloween. All of the sudden, it was below freezing and it was hard to adapt to.

Usually one gets the opportunity to slowly acclimate to the slide of the temperature. But this happened so fast, it really felt cold. It still does.

Susan and I were out working in the yard last weekend picking up the last of the leaves and the chill made it difficult to stay out there and complete the task. Our beers stayed icy cold the whole time we worked.

We are getting ready for the busy Holiday Window Painting Season. In fact, we are one week away from the beginning.

Oh joy!

Hot Tubbin'

We got up at 8 which was really 7, due to the cancellation of Daylight Savings Time. We used the time to kick off the start of Hot Tub Season.

We were only in the hot tub for about 20 minutes so I figure I still have about a half hour of Daylight Savings that I haven't used yet. I may wait to use it later in the week, like when I'm late for something...or want to be.
