November 6

It actually snowed this morning.  The ground was too warm so it all melted on contact.  This means it doesn't count as our first official snowfall.  But that doesn't make it any less cold, wet, and dark.  We need all the color and light we can get this time of year.

Tonight, I'm avoiding all election returns.  I'm going to bed the moment I'm done posting so that I can simply wake up in the morning to final returns.  There is only so much stress I can deal with and still get a good night's sleep....  Mary
