Our fourth winter weather advisory has been issued for the month of December.   Number 3 on Sunday didn’t amount to much,  so maybe this one won’t either.  After work tonight I headed out to fill the bird feeders.   Ice and freezing rain is due to move into our area around midnight,  and I wanted to have seed out in case the deck is a dangerous place to be in the morning.

I wish for safe journeys for all holiday travelers,  and especially for Garrett, as he drives down from the outskirts of Buffalo tomorrow.

It was bitter cold today,  beginning with a 4 degree reading when I first got up this morning.   Now the temperatures are supposed to start rising,  and I wonder if we really will have a white Christmas after all.

Awake at 5 a.m.  with much on my mind,  it seems that it has been a very long day.  George again took care of the errands,  and cooked our dinner,  so that I could kick my shoes off and relax a little bit tonight.  That is the best present ever!

Tomorrow I go in to work an hour early in hopes of being able to leave a little earlier than usual.   At least that is the plan.  Once my workday is over,  I will get my second wind,  and the holiday can begin.

I like the tiny little feetprints. They are so delicate.
I hope you get a chance to rest Jan, and that you and George have a wonderful Christmas with all your family.
Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year.

I really like your birdy footprints – looks like someone was hungry. ;o). Jan, I really like your counted cross-stitch. I hope your son Garrett has made it safely. May all of you have a joyous Christmas together.
