Good morning! It's a beautiful morning! It's bright and clear and very cold! Winter is trying to peek in; but we have some very unseasonably warm days coming up next week, to keep winter at bay a bit longer.
Yesterday was a gorgeous day, and we spent most of it getting outside decorations done. We kept changing our mnds as we went, but I'm very happy with the end result. I did resist the temptation to go ahead and turn the lights on! LOL!
Today we're going to take a quick visit with my parents. I won't have computer access, so won't be able to send a message tomorrow morning. Y'all bear with me, have a great weekend, I'll be back Sunday! :)
Today is "National Medical Science Liaison (MSL) Awareness" ... "Saxophone Day: ... "UN International Day for Preventing the Exploitation of the Environment in War and Armed Conflict".
Quotes of the Day:
"You must learn from the mistakes of others. You can't possibly live long enough to make them all yourself."
