Good morning! It's a beautiful morning. It's bright and sunny, still a bit chilly. I don't know what the temp is,but felt cold when I let a dog out a short time ago. :)
Yesterday: It was a lot of rushing around and being disorganized, I actually got everything done that I needed to do. We left home by noon, and with a Wendy's and a Wally stop, we still got here by a little after 3:00 - in pouring rain! LOL! My son said it snowed in Kinston, before it turned over to sleet and then rain. Still, we arrived safely and had a relaxing evening.
Today: Everyone is just tarting to stir around. It'll be a bit busy, getting things straightened up before the birthday party this afternoon ... guess I better get off the computer andhelp! :)
Today is "Darwin Day" ... "Oglethorpe Day" ... "Birthday - Safetypup" ... "Anniversary - NAACP" .... "Log Cabin Day" ... "Plum Pudding Day" ... "Lost Penny Day".
