Waking up this morning the clock was displaying 8:00 as the time but there was little sunlight that should have been seeping into the windows to make one feel that was correct. As soon as I opened the curtains in the office the answer was very clear. Nature had left its calling card reminding us that Christmas is only 29 days away. We had received our first dusting of snow last night.
It didn’t just catch us off guard but even the squirrels were running around trying to find their stashes under the snow. The sun finally appeared around noon to melt it away and to bring the temperatures above the freezing mark but not the windchill.
Kathy and I went to the Devonshire Mall to have lunch at one of our favorite restaurants Moxie’s. They serve a variety of meals from Brunches, Lunches and Dinners. Another thing that helped us to make up our mind was also the fact that we still had a gift card from Moxie’s to use. After enjoying a fantastic lunch and cashing in the gift card it only cost us an additional $5.00 for the tip.
From there we walked around the mall to burn off a few calories as well as people watching. There were lots of parents bringing their children to see Santa Claus some for the first time. Kathy managed to talk with some of the big guys own personal security.
We also stopped off so that Kathy would be able to find a warm enough hat to see her through until we leave for Florida in January.
Now we headed over to visit with our friends Kathie and Ross at their apartment. We spent a couple of hours catching up as to what everyone has been up to. We made a promise to get together between the holidays when we left for home.
Being that we were still full from our lunch we kept our supper fairly light. After watching the News we headed over to our daughter Karen’s for our Sunday night visit. Unfortunately Greg had been forced to work the afternoon shift today but we still got to visit with Karen and the grandchildren as well.
Back at the apartment we were just on time to see another new Christmas special on the television. Thanks for following along and feel free to leave a comment. Be Safe and Enjoy!
It’s about time.

Bring Back the Chair
A study by researchers from the Teesside University School of Health and Social Care in England found that sitting on a stability ball does not provide any benefit to seating posture over sitting on the standard desk chair.
