An Icy Start to the Week

This picture was taken on Sunday afternoon, while it was still in the balmy 50s. Later that night the bottom fell out of the thermometer and we had freezing rain and sleet on Monday morning. Late Monday night we had a dusting of snow on top of the ice glaze, and this afternoon we had freezing drizzle. So I haven't been back outside to take more photos of our outside decorations.

Norm has been out, to the drugstore yesterday and to the bank today. We have been waiting for our extended warranty to pay the Chrysler service department so we can go pick up Gracie, who needed a new power steering pump. That was the source of the whining/growling noise. Hopefully we can retrieve our van tomorrow while it is forecast to be "dry" before rain comes in on Thursday.

Tonight we put most of the ornaments on our Christmas tree. There is still more decorating to do before the end of the week. But soon there will be even more pictures! We love to see that loyal family and friends are checking this blog daily. You know who you are. Thank you and may all of your holiday preparations and pre-Christmas events be merry.
