Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. We're still in this "warm" spell; today will be low to mid 60s, and mostly sunny. Possibly by the end of the week we'll exchange the warm weather for more seasonable cool ... but being this nice so late into November is a gift, meant to be enjoyed!
Yesterday: By the end of the day, I actually did everything I had on my list. I was awfully lazy, and should have done a lot more. But all progress is forward, so I'll just keep working on things 'til I get them done. I've managed to not clutter up the spaces already cleaned, so brought a few more boxes down to place decorations. We even managed a quick ride to see the lights, and a stop in the candy store. (yes, Sam, I got what you asked for! LOL!). Plus, I got started on 2 quick sewing projects.
Today: This will be an interesting day to say the least! LOL! I have new appliances being delivered later this afternoon, so I have a little bit of cleaning to do first. Meantime, I'm working on emptying the boxes I brought down, and starting on wrapping some gifts. This afternoon when I have help we'll try to get a lot more of the outside stuff done.
Today is ""Beaver Moon" ... "UN World Day of Remembrance For Road Traffic Victims" ... "UN World Television Day" ... "World Hello Day" ... "Ratification Day (North Carolina)" ... "Totensonntag (Germany)".
