      I only report the weather, i don't make it!

      Darel had a good day yesterday.  We had to make a quick run to Sam's, he always like a ride to town.  Sam's was very busy but there were plenty of smiles and friendly holiday spirit.  I even ran into some people I knew.  My sister bought down supper last night.  Doug and Nicole, Ray Bickmore and Raymond Freeman joined us.  So you know it was a good evening.  Enough good left overs so neither Lynne or I need to cook today.  Sally Jo was already here wrapping presents for Santa.

      Sally Jo is doing such a nice job wrapping presents for Santa she isn't done yet!  Gayle is coming first thing this morning so i can go to church and go through Nativity costumes so they are ready for the church's program and for ours.  So glad Sunday's forecast is good.  And hoping the snow forecast for Monday stays at 1-3. A busy few days ahead, it would be nice not to lose power.  Fortunately we do have a generator full of gas with a couple cans full.

      Have a good day, Sally
