on the road again ~ Melissa and family are back home again after a week in Virginia with relatives. They all had a great time visiting and vacationing. They stayed at the Great Wolf Lodge in Williamsburg, which has an indoor water park! These accomodations look a lot better than their soggy tent when they go on vacation with us, Grandma Pam really knows how to treat them!
feeling sluggish ~ According to Robin at CNN, "that 'duh' feeling today could be a carb coma post Thanksgiving." Time to toss the leftovers and get back on a regular diet!
counting down ~ Need some help to get in the mood for Christmas: Here is a Christmas countdown site!
shop til you drop ~ Anyone go shopping on Black Friday? I did some online browsing which turned out to be quite entertaining. We ventured out on Saturday, found a few things. This sign reminded me of the grandkids:
the party's over ~ The rain and wind have blown off all the leaves here, it is really looking a lot like winter now. Yesterday it was cold and rainy - a good day to sit by the fire, watch old movies, read, and nap.
the confetti of leaves has fallen
the guests have all gone home,
taking with them
pictures and memories
of the seasonal change
in the mountains
the party is over
nothing left but
the clean up
