Almost

Hi, Amanda.

Snow days are in my future, just not quite yet, I guess. Some bad weather is coming through today, but it's a little early in the day and the wintry mix is not quite wintry enough. I will say that in the past I have observed that we tend to get into weekly patterns, so snow on a Sunday makes me hopeful that I have Monday delays and snow days to look forward to this winter. Just not tomorrow.

I'm still not feeling quite right, but decided to do more than lie around today. I'm not quite up to decorating for Christmas, so I headed to the kitchen. I made more of my Italian sausage soup with the remaining half bag of baby spinach and the other three sausage links that were in my freezer--so I'm all set for lunch this week. And since I took chili out of the freezer too, I decided against making fra diavolo. While the game is on I'll throw a potato in the oven and will have a chili stuffed baked potato: something a little more football game-ish. Some night this week I'll make myself a nice dinner. Anyway, a little later, maybe after the game, I'll try to do some more organizing so that I can get those pictures taken and emailed to you. As you can imagine, I am still hemming and hawing (or as W would say: hemming and hahring; love that Bawston accent) about what to put where, but have made some progress...

Hope you're still having a good visit with your folks. Look forward to hearing from you when you get a chance.

Love, B
