It's been a really long time

Okay, so it has been a really long time. I could go into it but it is boring. But as you can see (the date), it's practically Thanksgiving now. My birthday, Donna's, and Aaron's are long gone. I'd really like to say the weather has gone all chilly and nearly winter like but the sad truth is it has not. In fact, you might say it's like never ending summer lately. We have a cool day or two then it's right back to the awful hot, dry crud we've been experiencing since the end of September. Ugh!!! I am soooo sick of it too!

Hannah moved out mid-September, yet her box of junk and prom dress lives on here. She stopped by briefly on election night with promises of coming back that night to pick up her stuff. No dice, she never came back and her stuff still sits in our living room.

Weather not withstanding, we are getting geared up for the holidays, mentally if not physically. A new mailbox stands in the yard instead of reclining on a nearly horizontal post now. I'm sure the mailman is most grateful. We have to be careful with our cash this Christmas, no "Wouldn't be lovely to take all of our money, pile it up, and burn it!" Okay, maybe we don't do it but it feels like it every January when the bills come in. This year we are just going to have to be more careful on what we can't live without buying for our loved ones.

Well, this should appease the masses (Donna) that were complaining that I never post anymore. I really don't have much else to say, at least at the moment.
