I just talked to Mom and Mike in Trent.....they have had their first cold weather. It dropped 19 degrees in 2 minutes!!! So much for the 70s in November. Today is snowing and sleeting-the usual Texas thing....ice, ice, ice. The thing I love about Texas bad weather is that you just stay home until it goes away-Donna is home because school is closed, Mike is off work today because the trucks aren't moving and Mom is snuggled in with a fire and a pot of stew. It's like playing hookey-legally. I love those days because you didn't have anything planned since you thought you were gonna work and you can't do anything 'cause the weathers bad-so you are just stuck inside doing whatever YOU WANT TO DO....reading, napping, knitting, beading, scrapebooking, playing scrabble....ahhhh, the choices are to numerous to count. What a gift!!!!

Sounds wonderful! I talked to Mom and apparently she spent the day inside playing scrabble and drinking coffee...Mike, however, spent the day outside covering up some pipes he forgot to cover yesterday-apparently a lot of them. It was 24 here when I left work and 28 in Abilene! I think we have 8 inches of snow forecasted for tonight! At least that's what a patient told me.... I'm spending the evening researching dog sled rides-I want to go on a ride next month maybe (I'm trying to make plans for Dec since I've been told it is the worse month). There are some great kennels but I want one in the valley so I don't have to drive too far. There is a great one in Fairbanks that takes you into the Denali park for 2 or 3 nights but it is out of my price range. Still looking...
