December 8, 2014 Monday Night

Glen and I are settled in, just ordinary living.  I know that you aren't interested in what time we get up (late), or what we eat each meal, or if we walk to the neighbors in the afternoon to visit.

That is what we have been doing the past week!

Glen has been working a bit each day on a plumbing project.  I watch and when Glen calls I go hold one end of a pipe or board or something.  It is very exciting.

The back yard birds have found the grape jelly, orange halves, and Magic Mix (a peanut butter/lard/corn meal mix).  There has been birds feeding that we didn't see last winter.  The golden-fronted woodpecker or grean jay or greater kiskadee squawks whenever the food supply needs replinishing.  

We are counting down the days to the arrival of Evelyn and Gary (around Christmas).  My sister Jan and husband Bruce are driving from Missouri around the first of the year!  Other "winter Texan" friends from Oklahoma and Michigan and Missouri will be on the same schedule...between Christmas and New Year's.  

It's has been misting rain since late Saturday night through mid-afternoon today.  Total rain is .60 inch.  The locals are calling this a "rainy" winter!  Temperature all day and now is 59 degrees.  No snow worries!  That kind of rain total doesn't raise the lake level.
