Holy Cow! It is only November and we have snow on the ground and temps at 20 and will not warm above freezing today. And to add insult to injury...more snow predicted for later this week. This is not fair! I texted Jon about road conditions since I will be trekking home to the doctor this morning. He said the roads are ok but be careful for slick spots. Going home is taking all back roads but they have been pretreating highways since Sunday. When we were coming home Sunday state trucks were out on both sides of the river spraying liquid salt. We went straight from summer to deep winter...like I said, Holy Cow!
I am still doctoring with that spot on my ankle I knicked 6 weeks or so ago. Today I should know how they intend to remove it. That is the reason not much will keep me from this trip.
The little tree is all fluffed and looks pretty darn good all lite up in the morning dark. This weather is putting everyone into the Christmas mood and I am seeing a couple of trees going up....anyone who waited to decorate their yards until after Halloween are out of luck with this snow and cold. Think I will put the candles in the windows just because I love the glow they make. I am telling you we went from summer to winter and straight into Christmas from Halloween around here.
Tried to order Sierra a pair of shoes on line and my order was cancelled because of my credit card so I called the credit company and they said they showed the order pending and it was ok on their end. So I called the shoe place back and reinstated the order and then got notice they cancelled it again. I use only one card for on line ordering so if I have a problem I know exactly what card and can remember what I have ordered. Credit card company says the glitch is on the other end and my card is good and other things I have ordered are ok. So this afternoon I will look for another place that carries those shoes. I told them I only use this card for online ordering and the guy said he could see that. Geeze, he looked at my history and knew what I used that credit card for! Sort of a Big Brother moment.
Have a pot of spaghetti and meatballs in the crock for supper tonight. Waited for Jon to get home yesterday with the weather to grocery shop so we only did one store. If the town roads at home are ok I will run into my ole local store and can get lunch meat and the salad dressing the kids like. Have a scouting bag to fill and want to stop at the Dollar Store and see if I can find a bigger crock pot. There will be 22 of us Thanksgiving at my sister's and I will need a bigger pot for potatoes!
Time to stop sitting on my cold feet and hit the shower. Want to make sure I have plenty of drive time. Paula, the pictures of California's fires is just heart breaking. I have no business complaining about a little snow and cold with what you are suffering in your state. The stories bring tears. Prayers to those people who lost everything in a matter of minutes.
Have a wonderful day..
