#1 Son - Christmas 2007

Word of the Day

Fenderberg - Any large glacial deposit that forms on the inside of a vehicle's fender during the winter snow season.

My guest room has been vacated. HTP just left to take #1 Son to the airport. It sure is going to be quiet here now that #1 Son has gone back to school. Last night was our last night together here....at least for a while. I made a special roast beef dinner. We played Wii and then watched the movie Ratatouille. This morning we had a nice brunch...at home. I've found that, for the most part, I can provide the same wonderful brunch foods as you'd pay lots of bucks for at a restaurant. I even served mimosas. *sigh* I'm not sure if I'll ever get used to this empty nest thing. Oh well...we'll see all our children again in a few months. And our grandchild.

It froze again last night. However, I don't think we'll be seeing any more freezing temperatures...at least...not for a while. I can uncover all the plants and store away the sheets until the next time.
