• Sunshine In My Eyes… This is winter?! OK, so technically we haven’t had the first official day of winter as of yet. But still… wow! I am constantly amazed at the weather here in Maryland. The saying “Tired of the weather? Wait a minute and it will change for you!” is especially true this year. Last week rainy and mild. Week before cold *in the high 30s, low 40s*. This week has been beautiful: weird fog in the morning but then sunny, with blue skies with temps in the high 50s to low 60s. Absolutely wonderful not only for the chance to enjoy being outside, but its been a blessing in that the heating bills have been greatly reduced so far. Our illustrious governor *snort* allowed the utility companies to ramp the electric costs up SEVENTY PERCENT over the next 2 years or so. Thus brings the tenure of Governor Robert Ehrlich to a close. Was I a bit surprised by the fact that he lost the election last month? Errr…no. OK back to the weather. Politics *shudder*. So here we are having absolutely AMAZING weather for the end of November and I haven’t been outside enjoying it nearly enough. It seems that tomorrow brings the glorious days to an end, at least for a while. Rain is expected tomorrow evening with the cold to come rolling in soon after. Wah. Heating bills: *caching caching caching*. We have tried to go out at least a bit and enjoy these days while we have been having them. I took Brenna and Becca out before we had lunch *compliments of a friend who had won the lunch as part of a program to listen to a financial presentation*. Our county has three of the large multi-level cool wood/composite playgrounds that are safe, fun and a great place to hang out. Or spin… Hopefully we can go out again tomorrow while we have one more nice day. Who knows if this weather will return before spring? Oh yeah…well if I wait around a minute it will change. :0D Til Next Time… Kathie
