Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. Today we seem to be heading back to summer - near 80 and sunny! This is fairly "normal" for fall in NC; but it's still a bit confusing. :) So, we'll just enjoy these lovely days while we can, because winter is just around the corner.
Last night I didn't get much done. I got laundry done, but it's not put up yet; and the suitcase is emptied. I had a lot of "left-over tired"! LOL! I think tonight will be much better.
Today is "National Support Your Local Chamber of Commerce Day" ... "Overseas Chinese Day (Taiwan)".
Quotes of the Day:
"Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep."
-- Scott Adams

-- Ethel Mumford
