    Darel had a pleasant, uneventful day yesterday.. We'll take a ride to church today to set up for Sunday School.  I spent most of yesterday planning my "Thank God on Thanksgiving" lesson for Sunday.  Than thoughts turned to Christmas.  December 2ed is the first Sunday in Advent.  The book I'm using is the new testament.  The teacher before me did the beginning, the birth of Christ, the first week in September.  I am going to set the book aside for Advent.  The children's minds are full of Christmas,  I want it to be "Christ"mas so I started on Christmas lessons yesterday.

     That means today i need to do things i was going to do yesterday.  We only got about four inches of snow so there isn't much shoveling to do.  I'm going out now and clean off the platform feeder and throw some sunflower seeds on the snow for the Juncos.  I think they were watching for me, By the time I got in the house the early birds were here.  The waterer was lined with birds.

    Darel was awake too.  He still goes to bed on day light savings time so he gets up earlier.  But than takes a long nap later.  Time for me to get started on my day. Enjoy yours, there is always something to smile about.  Sally
