Brrr it's getting cold!!

I love the fall and winter seasons but this year it seems to have gotten cold early. But then we had the mildest summer I can remember for years. At work we tried the persimmon cutting to see what shape was inside. Shirley's persimmons didn't tell us squat unless hers was a knife shape and Carolyn's granddaughter's class had spoon shapes. So if it is right about how you can tell what kind of winter it will be from them, either bitter cold or lots of snow. I love snow at Christmas and maybe a few flakes on Thanksgiving but after that I am done with it. Last night we went to Johnny Adcock's 50th birthday party for a few hours. There was pictures taken so I will have Laura email me some to put on here so I can show the few social events we have going on the next two weekends. Next Saturday is Ronald and Cindy K's reception and Tiffany Crew's wedding. Again I will post a few pictures of those events, so those of ya'all that check this out can get a kick out of them. Tonight we are supposed to attend Ashley & Kevin Boock's halloween party. I have a witch costume going on and Steve can go as the professor from Gilligan's Island. This witch is going to WalMart for some long johns to wear under my dress since it's going to be a good chilly night for a halloween party. I also got to save my plants and get the others put up for the winter tomorrow since the first freeze will be either Sunday or Monday night. I am headed off to take my Grandma Joy out for a bit and get ready for the party. By the way, my grandma turns 90 on November 5th. She still is very independent and can take care of herself at her own home. She decided almost a year ago that she didn't want to drive anymore and gave Jordan her car so that she can take her places when Jordan can. Then I fill in when Jordan is working or doing volleyball like today. This is the last of the volleyball season and of course this year I took only the first game and my batteries were running out. Never remembered after that to get a camera there. She is very good and next year I will be sure to get the schedule out.
