Thursday, December 5th. No sunshine here in Maine- 36 degrees


 My Christmas Gingerbread House.  I decorated a regular boxed doll house and had it at the Library Check Out Desk all the years I worked at the Library.....it feels like  Some Other Life.  Or....more like the Life I am now living is "something other".  Not exactly less...just not what I expected.

I recall a male Library Patron trying to pick a fake gumdrop off the roof of the house....I mentioned to him that nothing on the house was "edible" while he was trying to pry that gumdrop off.........

So, cold weather here in Maine....wet.  The coastal areas are warmer than inland.  So Maine might be having snow today but my coastal part of Maine is having cold rain.  Which will freeze overnight and we'll have ICE.  Lovely.  A Call this morning- A Floral Delivery today.  From Whom???????

The gal that helped me with the landscaping around my house- actually she helped with the WEEDS that had taken over the landscaping......is now caring for 26 cats...  OH!!!!

So..I have to put on my wool socks, make and put my bowl of oatmeal in the microwave, read the morning newspaper, do my sudoko puzzle- try for at least 5 numbers-- wait to see what is coming in from the Flower Shop and then.....add a few more things to the Christmas Tree.  Decorate the sides- I just have things on the front but that's all.  

I didn't want a tree...but now that it's here....I love having it.
