Winter Approaches

Just kidding. It was 51 degrees yesterday. The geese are gathering on the lake or in the cornfields, getting ready to fly south. I am enjoying the last of the fall weather. The farmer finished his corn harvest this week and all the equipment is put away for the winter.

Gift catalogs are coming in the mail. We went to a craft fair yesterday and bought peanut brittle, apricot marmalade and something for the stockings. Mrs. Santa is accepting requests.

The interview/visit with C. went well, and she will be a perfect fit as a Pediatrician with our group. I got to go along on the housing hunt. As usual, the choices are small and from the 50's. All would take re-decorating and yard work. My favorite was a renovated farmhouse which had great personality. Sadly, there was a dead mouse on the kitchen floor. I would think the realtor could do a walk through before showing the house. The house has the cutest third story attic room with dormer windows, the perfect place to curl up and read or draw. It is a diamond in the rough.
