Well, that's what the local stores are saying, and my website too (LOL)...but of course, it will still be a few months before Texas concurs.
But, I sell throughout the US (including all territories and APO locations), so where you are may be different. Maybe you're waking up to a bit of chill in the air, heralding the annual change.
Personally, I love the fall (and spring) seasons. The change from what was...to what will be, is always my favorite time.
For…
Unless you've been out on a deserted island, by now, you've read about the horrific floods in Texas. Already over 100 persons, from the littlest ages to older, are confirmed deceased.
I ask that you take a minute to remember them, and remember the awful heartache that their families are enduring.
Then, please, take another minute to remember our first responders. While many of these folks are battle hardened, I cannot imagine a worst day than finding the dead body of a child…
I know I mention the weather a lot, but around here...well the old joke that you wait 10 minutes the weather will change often seems to be more true than fantasy.
Take this week, we have had record lows (was 12F the other night) and a week ago...yeah it was 85F. Going to be high 70's next week. No wonder everyone seems a bit whiplashed...cause we surely are.
But spring IS coming. My rosebushes are budding out (or they were....) and pretty soon, I'll be grousing to…
So, the groundhog saw his shadow, which means an early spring they say. Yep. Gotcha. It is going to be 80F today (yes, it is February 2, 2025).
Yep, I know, I talk about the weather a lot, right? Well, that's understandable. Every single thing we humans do has to bow in that direction. If too hot, or too cold, life plans often change. Rainy days. Snowy days. Icy days and more.
Personally, a few more months of cold wouldn't be a problem. But, the groundhog has spoken, and I…
...in writing. Making? Oh yeah, I got that going for sure.
Maybe that's why this year has absolutely flown by. Because it has. I just realized that it is mid October and...well...not much time this year before my family heads out of country for a destination wedding. More on that, later, but...please order early! I'll be out of country from November 30 through December 10th. Of course, anything ordered will ship out prior to my leaving (if received prior to 11.27.24, that is) but…
Lately, around here, it has been cold. Like 'single digits at night, teens during the day' cold. Like...maybe you step outside and think you're in North Dakota cold (my mom was from a little town near the Canadian border and I remember her tales of walking through snow tunnels due to high drifts!)...
but this is Texas, and around here...yeah that is COLD.
I'm also not a fan of super hot. So, I guess I'm looking for my version of the old story...not too cold. Not too hot. Just…
