Barefoot on the Beach

Wasn't sure I was going to get home Thursday night, the sleet and snow made for an interesting 50 mile commute. Once I got there, I didn't go anywhere and it took the better part of Rachel's Friday morning chopping away at her car. (she did have some help) She is now house sitting at Aunt Molly's for several days while they are in Washington D.C. I had several movies to watch so it seemed the only thing to do was cook comfort food and watch tv. Beef stew, stuffed pork chops, beef stroganoff, and chocolate chip cookies make for a delicious weekend. The front yard has some major branches down but I'm not going to do anything about them until the weather moderates. The high was only 19 degrees yesterday. Hope you all have your winter coats, hats, and gloves handy.

For those of you who weren't there to decorate, the Christmas tree is up and beautiful as always. I have started putting gifts under the tree. Let me know when you all plan to be home to celebrate. Jessie, is the pic of your new friend? Maybe you would like to bring him home for a few days, if you can get the time off. Actually, any time would be nice. Just let me know.

All right, I have updated. I will try to do this more often.
