Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. It's bright and clear, and crisp! (that means sorta cold! LOL!). It will only be lower to mid 40s today, and breezy ... ahead of a front coming I think.
Last night I pushed myself and got some straightening, decluttering, and laundry done. Well, all my TV shows were reruns! LOL!
Tonight my son & his family are coming for dinner. So, will rush home from work (they'll already be here) to get in some visiting before they have to head home (2 hour drive - fortunately, not a "school night"!)
