Fri. Nov. 10
From a dampish, windy, coolish, miserable MO,
To have had such lovely fall days and then go to this definitely sends a reminder that winter is coming!
I forgot to mention in the missive yesterday about the three hours I spent at our county library on Wednesday covering the art exhibit. Thirty black and white photographs were on display relative to women in agriculture. All areas of the US were covered with various ethnic groups also included. The photos were contemporary, but the messages would cover the ages. I had two individuals come through, a third grade accelerated group with teacher, and a mother with what I assume to be her homeschooled daughters. The three hours went much quicker than I expected and I was lucky that the lady replacing me was on time.
When the girls needed to go out this a.m., I quickly realized that the weather had changed. We were getting a moderate rain, wind from the north, and it was definitely nippy. The girls have not had a lot of experience with rain and they were not happy campers about going outside, but eventually they did their needed thing. When we returned to the house, I let them cuddle in with us - much to their delight.
Jim slept in until almost 7:30 and I had good intentions of getting up, and finally did so after 10:00. I didn't sleep for most of that time, but was just enjoying the comfort of bed and rest. Jim joined the second breakfast group and later "offered" to take me to Applebee's for lunch. The salads were much better this time (guess the staff is catching on) and we had enough left to take care of supper.
Mary Willis just called and she is making a quick trip to Brookfield on Saturday and asked if I would like to go along - I quickly said yes!
We need to walk on Saturday a.m. if the weather is more agreeable - I can dress for the cold, but hate to dress for cold and rain. I am sure there are some football games on tv and I have several projects that I need to work on.
Be safe.
