Yup Pat just peeking as I've been mucho busy cleaning up from the multiple storms and their aftermath of the tornadles, lightening etc. Temps still up there in the pm but nice and coold in the early evening and mornings. They say this "cycle" is what it was back in the 40's or so. Got a great new cook book and fixin to start in on some new recipies.
Hi Patti and everyone else. Yes, I've been out of it for a while. I've been going through a difficult time in my marriage, but am beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I haven't really been in the mood to write anything on the blog until today, and this isn't much but it's a start. Good luck to your friend, Richard, and wish me luck too!

Richard I do indeed send my best wishes to your friend - 100 days is certainly an amazing milestone.
Here in the county it's a interesting time of year. The leaves are lovely and strangely enough, my husband I noticed the same oddity in the geese the other night when we were out for a walk. Beats me. Road kill here these days is more likely to be a russet than a skunk. Which is good because the russet doesn't smell as bad, at least initially.
Tonight is the final soccer competition between our two middle schools. The one across town is blending with ours next year so lots of "lasts" are happening. This will be a very big night. We at Skyway intend to kick ass. Oops this is middle school so lets go with butt.
Dave and I have reservations for Hawaii. We leave here on the 1st of Dec. and return on the 12th. A few days on "The big island" and a few more on Maui. I'm really looking forward to it. I'm glad we finally decided one way or the other too.
Dad is in a hotel in FL. Third evacuation - jeez. The hotel they were in lost power and so they had to move across town to another that had power as Dad's oxygen tank requires electricity. I'm a little confused about why it isn't just battery powered> Possibly 3 weeks before they can get back into their home depending on wind and rain continuing to do damage through the damaged roof. Otherwise though they are fine. I sure wish they had moved up to Burlington .
Where is everyone?????? Lori, Kathy, Karen and the rest of you just peeking???

Hi Pat, It has been a little quiet on the blog site. Unfortunately, it is a little quiet in Burlington as well. After a cold and very wet summer, leaves are turning and are at about 25% of peak color. Geese are flying south, but don't seem to have the same tight vee formations that they usually do. What's up with that? We bought our ski pass and have moved into the "think snow" mode. So, that's what I mean by nothing happening here. The good news is that one of my friends has survived 100 days after a bone marrow transplant. That is an important milestone, but things still seem very uncertain. Please send good energy out to people who are sick. My friend needs some.
