Don't know why, but can't stand the on-coming lights. And the deer are really moving. I don't mind the darker mornings, however as I'm a slow mover in the morning anyway, and in no rush to get out. Free days make me even happier.

I used to love his high leather climbing boots. Of course that work took a toll. He spent his later years having one operation after another to fix the damage. Those lineman are really heroes.

I won't drive in the dark so there are a lot of things at church I can't go to. The lack of sunshine this time of year is very bad for my disposition - I think they call it "SAD".

Good for your brother though to get the work. It looks like he has quite an investment in equipment! It is cold here for this time of year....26 F this morning and not getting out of the 40's during the day. Today the sun will shine for the next 3 days and in the 60's again so maybe I'll get some more paint on that shed.<br />I still like Fridays....a leftover from my working days! It's Walmart today. Have a good one and stay warm...I'm not used to this cold yet....love it but not used to it! LOL!<br />So sorry about your poor Dad but glad he is okay and able to get to Bingo!
