Good morning all!

Got breakfast? No? Here you go!

Breakfast sandwich day again. I've got some scrambled and fried eggs, fried ham, bacon and sausage, some lovely mushrooms, as well as, diced peppers, onions and tomatoes! Lots of fresh french bread over the right there with the fixings (salt, pepper, mustard, hot sauce, etc.). Coffee, tea and juice over next to the paper plates. :)

Seamus, I loved those punk kittens. LOL! Good way to wake up this morning.

Corin - I'm glad to hear that your FIL is home. He and the rest of your family remain in my prayers. Oh, and on another note, I noticed that ksen only gave up ONE of the FOUR Precious he captured. What does that tell you? LOL!

2Jedismom - sorry about the pumpkins. It's fairly common for bored kids to steal and smash up the old vegetables just for kicks. It's a shame that they haven't learned to respect other people's property yet. :(

OK - I'm off to catch up on some news.

I hope not... the appeal is the scruffiness... clean him up and he's just Viggo Mortensen. That won't do.

Tornado warning in Cary, south and east of me!

Warnings are north of here. But it's getting very dark outside. We'll probably at least get some thunderstorms. Especially since this will be the absolute last day I have to get the storm windows on before Christmas. Other than that I'll be putting them up in the dark.

Problem now is I can't paint them all at once like I could have over the summer (outside). So I slap on a coat of paint, do something else for an hour and slap on another coat. We're going from brown to white, so it takes three coats.

On the other hand, I have just given myself special dispensation to not give a hoot about what the neighbors think of the leaves in my front yard. I live between two perfect yards and they're out vacuuming every day.

I'm in the middle of rehearsals for Christmas, I have storm windows to still get up, my father-in-law is in hospice, we're rearranging the house 'cause my m-i-l will be coming to live with us...and supposedly I'm writing a "novel"...

'Scuse my language, but the damn leaves can wait. If the neighbors want 'em gone, they're welcome to 'em.

It's very dark and very still outside...that's not a good sign, is it?

I think you came out on the best end of that deal.

If it turns kind of yellowish/greenish then you have to worry.

Yes, but one can be scruffy and clean...

Well my neighbor is on his roof sweeping off the leaves, so I'll go back out for a while and see how far I get...

Back later...probably sooner than later...

No... one can't...because when this particular person cleans up he's just Viggo who does absolutely nothing for me.

Looks like we're in the clear now.

My leaves haven't finished falling yet. In fact, we're just starting to get some good color. I'm in the woods. There's supposed to be leaves on the ground!

Don't leaves get covered up with snow anyway?

By the way... Ohio had those storms last night. I know this, not because it rained, but because the local weatherman kept interrupting programming, and then would talk on and on about nothing.

Good thing they didn't interrupt Alias!
