I thought I sat down and relaxed and wrote a wee bit yesterday; I guess I didn’t. You’d think I surely would have; I mean we had a winter storm and Der Bingle had to drive back to Fairborn. I put lights on the tree and called Summer down to look at them and she decided we should put on some additional ones that have 16 functions. So we have these nice small globe lights that have a cut-glass appearance and then there are the possible seizure strings. I convinced her to do slow twinkling but she could get tricky.

Right now, I am sitting here watching the East Noble 2- Hour Delay announcement that came yesterday afternoon . . . but still no closing. Oh, it could get bad – the tongue lashing Summer will give the corporation. This is the situation: the actual snow stopped last night, but we do have a strong wind and low temperature forecast. Soooo . . . given this is Northern Indiana and what do you expect in winter here?  Perhaps they will stick with the delay . . . and East Noble officials will have wooden sticks in their little “vampire” hearts. Ooooooh, I’m getting nervous.

Guess we’ll have to get all the soda pop into the house instead of in the vestibule, because . . . the low tonight will be ONE degree. That MIGHT be low enough to cool off some hotheads if necessary.
