And now to comment on the weather

The wind was fierce, it blew all day and even knocked down my big plastic garden bench. But it was the warm weather-close to 70 degrees that was so unusual. It got so warm in here, I turned on the air conditioner for about 15 minutes to cool the place off! Yes-in December. It was a jinx as the power went out for a few minutes right after that. I don't like warm weather in December. It throws me off like you wouldn't believe! And we were expecting 'severe' rainstorms all day-it went through about 7 and lasted about 10 minutes or so.
I went down the basement to look at the jumble of Christmas decorations and picked up one basket and a cloud of dust erupted from it! Ugh! I think it's the kitty litter settling on everything. I asked Bri to switch to the crystal stuff-looked in the box and it was the sandy stuff again. That means I have to be like a bandit and cover my nose and eyes everytime I go looking for something.
So I did pack up the last of the Thankgiving/Autumn decorations first (opps-forgot my hutch!) I'm getting the decorating itch!
