October 8, 2012

So a year has passed me by and yep, it snowed today up around Timberline Ski Resort (Canaan Valley) and as far as I'm concerned, they can keep it!

This past year has been interesting.  We had a very (VERY) light winter and a rather warm spring/summer and October so far has been quite chilly at night but the days (until today) have been nice (70's).  Today it rained and didn't get any warmer than 45 degrees...sigh...

March came in like a lion for my brother.  His neighborhood suffered a horrible tornado on March 3.  Fortunately for him, his wife and 18 month old daughter were with his in-laws down in Florida and were out of harms way.  Most of the homes around him were damaged quite severely and while his house was damaged, he could at least stay in it.  Most folks couldn't.  It's taken him all summer but he's getting some grass going and some trees planted and even had time to put in a pool.  He took his lemons and made a lovely lemon meringue pie...honestly he could fall into a pile of manure and come out riding a horse!

R and I finally got around to finishing at least one room in our house...our 8x16 closet.  Well, we are finished to the point I need 3-6' pieces of Rubbermaid shelving to be 100% but I'm happy with 98%.  Now on to another room! \o/

Will try to be a bit more attentive to my "blog"...mebbe...
