Well howdy there, Conor! *HUGZ*
Great to see you too! We’ve not been here at the same time in a little while.
I was glad to see you had a nice trip to Amish country. I imagine it felt good to get away and relax a bit after your chaotic summer. A little recharging before the holidays arrive, and they’re just around the corner.

Howdy, Kathy.
Hope you get home safe and sound. You aren’t kidding about the fog! Yikes, it’s thick! And the temp is at the freezing mark. Slip-and-slide weather. :-(

Hiya radu!
I'm still learning the job but it's a lot easier this week.
I'm feeling better, the cold is almost gone! I attribute the short-lived cold to my regimen of daily vitamins over the past few years. Colds used to last much longer before I took vitamins.
Son's over now, I'll kick him out around 8:30 so I can get ready for bed, LOL.
Did you have a nice, scary Halloween?

Sorry I have missed you recently. Things have been crazy here lately.
Amish Country is a place I love and to which I will return for so long as I am able. We had dinner Sunday Night at the Revere Tavern - one of the finest dinners I have ever had. It was a special night for Mrs. MacNessa and me, one we needed to have.

Good to hear you’re getting adjusted to the job and not dyin’ when ya get home. And really good to hear the cold didn’t hang on long. That’ll make it a little easier to get through your looooooong day tomorrow.
It was a good Halloween. The little town that holds the Halloween party where we set up the Witches Brew booth pulled a good crowd of folks young and old and they sure kept us busy ..... even though several kids were creeped out by my “ghoul next door” costume. LOL! THAT was where the fun was. :-)

I hope things settle down for you. You’ve had a lot of “crazy” lately and it’s time to relax. Glad your trip was a good start to that and it sounds like it was a lovely trip.
My schedule’s a little out of whack this week and I get here late. Glad I was early enough to catch you tonight.

I came home very slowly...no slip n slide yet, but morning should be interesting.
I’ve taken the day off...new lawyer in the morning, financial lady in the afternoon, carpet cleaning in the evening. Three big things off my “To Do” list. Clean carpets mean I can get going in the new guest room. Got a queen aero bed on the way home tonight. Good enough for brothers, sister, nieces or nephews. I just want to get something completely done!!

Aaaaah, that’s right! Tomorrow’s the day you had all that stuff lined up. It’ll be nice to get it behind you at last. And it’ll be great to finally get to fix up the guest room.
We got a lot of stuff unpacked and set up for the white elephant sale this weekend. Several people stopped by to drop off items and more will drop off stuff tomorrow. My bum back still hasn’t recuperated from the trip to Tupelo and all the bending and lifting left me moving slowly this evening. Sure would be nice to be young and spry. LOL
