Home a day early



We left Milton's yesterday morning instead of today. The forecast sounded a bit foreboding and we decided to try to beat the winter storm. We were successful. The southern Iowa schools are all closed today and that is right where we would have been driving had we waited a day. Mark went to pick up a month's worth of mail. It will take a couple of hours to sort out. Oh well, just look at my pictures and you will see I have nothing better to do and won't be going anywhere today! It is almost 80 degrees colder here than our weather just a few short days ago. Toto, we're not in Arizona anymore........

In my few remaining weeks in Iowa I hope to finish going through closets and weeding out unnecessary items and clothing. Way too many clothes. Wish I had the money I have spent over the years on clothes to spend on my grandson's college fund. A much more worthy cause!

We also plan to make a week-end in Omaha before we go. I am not certain how often I will be seeing Matt in the future so every time is special when I do. I will hound him to death about flying out to AZ sometime to see me and especially his new nephew!!

Well, our pipes are making very strange noises in Mark's absence so I best go check it out! Merry Christmas everyone!!!!
