We're having the most gorgeous 'Indian Summer' weather, where it's unseasonably warm. It just spoils us for the cold to come. We've had a few frosty mornings, but then it gets warmer in the days. We seem to have dinner plans for next weekend and maybe 2 engagements for the week after. And it's not even December yet. They are already playing Christmas music in the stores. L went to a tennis banquet and won a lovely tennis racquet bag. She can't make it to the dinner next weekend, as one of her good friends is having a birthday party.
At church yesterday, I noticed there was no 'handshake of peace' during mass. They also did that during the SARS outbreak. It gets really dark by 6pm now, so it was a bit tricky walking home.
We bought a carpet steamer that will even do upholstery, like couches. I hope we use it, it will be a good thing. We got a new food processor a few months back and I still haven't used it! I don't think I'm machine oriented.

Hi Christine,
The Indian Summer sounds lovely- like a little bonus you weren't expecting.
Congratulations on the Create Tuesday Prize It looks interesting Wish I had persevered a little longer although I i don't think I would even have merited a booby prize ! !
Agree with the The Law of the Garbage Truck . I think that the people who do the scattering are the unhappy ones Retaliation is a useless exercise
Hope rehearsals go well for L ank K is pleased when Christmas comes !
I had to watch a DVD to figure out how to use our food processor. I don't use it much so I'll probably forget again when I have to use it.
Barbara, we are really spoiled with this mild weather. Our last yard waste pickup is in a few weeks and all the leaves haven't fallen off our oak trees yet. Last year, they extended the pickup deadline.
Kay, that's a good idea, I should look for a youtube video...and of course, there's always the instruction manual! I'm terrified of cutting myself.
Lucky you your Indian Summer. It better not do that here... I don't think I could go back to the cold ;-)
You know, the problem with food processors (and other things like that) is unless you have it sitting on your countertop, it's such a pain to haul it out, plug it in, use it, clean it, and put it away. LOL!
That being said, I always wanted a carpet steamer!
