Welcome Winter!!! We woke up this morning to 4 deg. Celcius this morning. The rains are here, but still not much wind. I love these seasonal rains. It happens in the Spring too, but instead of going colder, it gets warmer. I, for one, though, LOVE winter. The sharp crispness in the air, the clarity of the sky, and all the brown leaves on the ground. No snow, but sure feels like there SHOULD be.
And it seems to have effected Chris too. After a long night’s sleep, he woke up with Christmas thoughts, jumping on the bed, yelling “Wake Up!! Santa’s been here!!!” The cold morning must have brought back some childhood memories.
Today, we hope to receive the long awaited part for Col’s Scout. And hopefully, that will fix the problem. Col says he’s not sure if it’s the transfer case or the gear box. (huh?!) I guess we’ll find out. In the meantime, Mr. Plumber has one more job to do. There’s some water leaking from the tap in the bathroom. So Chris will don his “Plumber’s” hat and see if he can fix that. And, we also have the dining room table to fix. It’s a bit wobbly. Of course, because BOTH of us lean on it to get up, it’s no wonder it’s wobbly.
So, while the boys are fixing up the Scout and van,…I might be able to sneak away with Margaret to do some long awaited “girl” shopping. She hasn’t had her turn to do that yet, and I certainly don’t mind going again! Might even find a couple of winter bargains.
