Sleet does not count as snow, therefore, this cannot count as the first snow of the season.
I talked to my Dad last night and he said it was 70 degrees out there (there, being St. Louis) yesterday! I guess the warm air is headed our way for Thanksgiving (or Hobbitsgiving or Slapsgiving- whichever you celebrate).

Last night I had some very bizarre dreams. In two of them I dreamt that an old friend (a different friend in each dream) died. In the second one (same one in which an old friend died) an old Houghton friend expected me to marry him, since the first person had died. In the first one Lauren and I were very fearful and lost. Anyway, the only reason I ( Read more... )

Recently I discovered that Capri Sun now makes 100% Juice varieties. This was exciting news to me, so I picked some up at the grocery today. It is very good and I plan to also try it frozen.  I hadn't had Capri Sun in so long, it brings me back.

This is all that has been on the news all day in Southeastern CT.

It's simply craziness. the accident was at 10:15 this morning and they are still cleaning up from it.  I am thankful I know that back back roads (the one's that people weren't being detoured onto). I just wish someone had stopped the driver before people got killed.

3-Injured, 3- ( Read more... )

 "I know what I'm doing. I have it all planned out-plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for. "

I just got an e-mail from my local orchard reminding me that tomorrow is the last day of pick-your-own apples. Where did the apple season go?  I only picked once all season.  I think I was thrown off by the warm weather this October.  They have lots of apples at the stand until December but it's not the same as picking your own.  I may have to go ( Read more... )

 HAPPY BIRTHDAY REBECCA ROWLEY!

I just wanted to make everyone aware that Christmas is exactly two months from today (61 days if your counting, but who is?). This is an important fact to know in the retail business as people tell you they are "getting ideas for Christmas", you must tell them to buy now! Your ideas will be gone by the time you get back! Ok, so I'm not that ( Read more... )
