Charlie Webb, Dan's co-worker sent this photo by email this morning accompanied by "I hate you." Sorry, couldn't rotate it, but you get the idea. In Wisconsin it's -20, and we hear the windchill is -46. I can empathize somewhat. Today it is partially cloudy here in Volcancito and probably only in the 70s.
Wisconsin temps grant a benefit: Just a little while ago I heard "Hello.." at the door. I should have peeked through the window before answering - like I do at home... You guessed it, Jehovah Witnesses. Steve (CA) and John (ID). They informed me that God is a person, not just energy, the Bible says so, right here. Thanks.
Ted and Pam invited us for dinner tonight. Early this morning I sent an email offering to bring hummus with vegetables or garlic bread. He answered and said he would prefer the garlic bread. So... that means a trip to town. I don't have any bread. The suggestion was just a possibility at the time I sent it. Then I thought, forget it, I'll take vegetables, but now I have to go into town to get bread,
You pay $20 to play 9 holes, but Pam and Ted said you can play as much as you want; just keep going around.

Don't forget about "Enlightened". You'll binge that one as well.

So far "Enlightened" hasn't been available for streaming. The connection is quirky here, so sometimes films are available and sometimes not. I never know. I'll try it again tonight.

Happy New Year!
Do you ever sit outside your residence? Are there patio furniture items and front porch rocking chairs? Do you have outdoor cookouts?
We had a snowstorm late last week here in Duxbury. We miss warm climates.

Yes, we have a nice-size patio off the bedroom. I sit out there to read sometimes and sometimes to exercise. Dan goes out to jump rope. Yes, we have nice nice chairs and a little table, nothing extravagant, but comfortable.

Enjoy your writings, Chrissy. Sounds like you are having a good time. Weather in Franklin right now is -16 with wind chills of -40. George runs out the patio door, pees as fast as he can, sits on his butt with his feet in the air. Poor little paw pads can't take it.

Glad you're enjoying it. I'm having fun writing it, and it's a great way to journal. I DO NOT miss the cold - the snow a little bit - I miss snowshoeing, but other than that - nope.
