Today is TV football and getting things ready to mail tomorrow. I'm still not up to speed yet, but have to get going. Got sidetracked a little last night, inspired by Felis posting new weekly LOs, I put together the photos from week 47 (includes Thanksgiving!) but still needs journaling - that...

Today was our Christmas Bird Count, so we were busy with that. It felt like we saw lots of birds, but nothing unexpected. We have a few inches of snow but we were in the mid to uppers 30s and it never really got into rain or snow. We are very tired from it and DH is napping. BUT...last night...

It got pretty cold last night but back up in the 20s now. I'm so happy with what's happening with the book. It will be in a hard cover with a reduced copy of the title page on the front. I think the price will be very reasonable, just over $15/book before tax. Hopefully they'll be done Monday...

We have a few inches of snow and the snowplow guy says he'll get here, but not when. But it might be as warm as 30 F and doesn't look as windy. Took a print out of the book to senior center group where it got passed around - fortunately as one person found a place where the beginning of an...

The book is done! At least it is ready for printing and binding, just hope I can get it done in time. This afternoon is senior center genealogy group. Have to deal with the book and start trying to catch up on other Christmas stuff and here at the O too. Chris, hope you have energy left after...

We got more snow last night, not a lot but everything is white now and it is quite windy. Glad to be inside. The O is really getting busy with the 12 Days and everything looking lovely. It is inspiring. Still plugging away on the book. Chris, good luck with the ducks. Knowing you, I'm sure...

Did the Monday bills and stuff and when DH came home from Hum & Strum he read and gave corrections on yesterday's addition to the book. That is cleared up now and just one last part to do plus the chore of documenting this part. Still trying to think if I can get to an index. Getting close...

We aren't doing too well encouraging each other to keep up. I owe three weeks now but don't have time yet. Right now I'm just taking a mini break from working on the book. Love what you did for week 47!

We did get a little snow last night, but it's just a dusting. As usual for Sunday we are watching football, but the surprise for the moment is that the Browns are leading at halftime. But there's plenty of time for them to still lose.. Felis, super that you got the snow you wanted and you and...

I love white poinsettias and this LO is simply exquisite!

Cold and gray but no snow - and I'm glad on that part! You all can have it. Seems so strange to have it snowing in the south and not here. No, we didn't find any of the snowy owls yesterday, but they like to find spots out of the wind when it's windy like that. It was a pretty day. Chris, the...

We're going in a few minutes to look for some of the Snowy Owls visiting the area. It is a pretty, sunny day, but cold and windy, so mostly we'll be in the car. (And yes, the book is still progressing.) Chris, so glad the scan went quickly and G found the stand. Sounds like you are really in...

Almost didn't make it here today as there wasn't time before going to the senior center where DH's Hum & Strum group did their annual Christmas sing along after the Dec. potluck. After, I just forgot, mostly working on the book and more :washing: Now sitting with DH with football on TV and doing...

Rae, sorry, we cross posted. Hope you and Taz both enjoy your day.

We're off soon to an appt. 45 minutes away. Tonight will be bird club. Still working on the book. Just dragging in this portion. Chris, you are getting lots done, so that is good. Hope you don't overdo what with the cleaning today. Yes, the Chinese was good, at least mine. DH did the buffet...

Just a quick Hello as we are leaving soon to go the the computer genealogy group board meeting and lunch. Every Dec. we meet at a Chinese restaurant, so that will be fun. Then try to do some Christmas shopping after. Chris, so hope the pains abate and the day is not so awful. And yes, getting...
