Lisa, your "gangly giraffe" (I love the description; it's perfect for pups at that age) is still one adorable youngster. And, her bedmate is pretty cute, too!
Jim, I laughed when I read about your disdain of instant Maxwell House. I have a coffee maker, but it's easier to make a single cup of instant coffee, its taste masked with flavored creamer. One friend lectures me on Every Single Visit about how instant isn't "real" coffee. Hey, I don't care what it is, as long as it has caffeine
It's most common to hear a solo or a duet, but today there was a full chorus of coyotes, coming from three directions, at 3:30. I don't think I have ever heard so many at once, and they were giving at least two types of calls -- howling and a chortling, like they were laughing. I was not.
I ran outside without hat, gloves, boots or even bothering to zip my hoodie and left my hysterically frantic dogs indoors, where they noisily lost their minds. Good Sunday morning!
Sister Carolyn left yesterday; we accomplished a lot on my to-do list. Thanks to her background as a landlord, she has some impressive DIY skills!
It's too early to decorate for Christmas, but we did. Not only is it more fun with her than by myself, it's also easier. She helped wrestle the 20-year-old fake tree into submission, and she's tall enough to attach garlands over the windows without a step stool.
Looks like two more days of decent weather before it really feels like winter. Brrrrr!!!!
