Winter

Winter usually sneaks up on me... Every year, I am away or busy and I procrastinate on puttin on my winter tires until... you guessed it... the first snowfall!! And then everybody and their dog wants their tires done and I have to wait a few days and well... it's not pretty!!

This year though... it worked differently!!! It was mid-October, I was going to be away for a week, and I thought... hmmm... I bet it'll snow while I'm gone and then I'll really be hooped!! So, I went to the tire shop and got my tires put on... The next day, the very next day, it snowed! Yup... Was I a ever a happy camper!! I was doing a little happy dance and smiling at the snow outside, knowing that this year I had beaten the snow by a day!

Mind you, our tomatoes outside were not doing a little happy dance! They've been tucked in at night, but during the day, it was quite warm... but that was it for the little guys! They did their best and it was time to say good bye to them...
