Leaves be gone...

I wanted to invent a leave sucker/vacuum but Spencer assures me one already exists. My free labor is pretty amazing. I wish I had a picture of the WHOLE yard BEFORE we started, but this first one will give you an idea of how covered it was. We started at 4:30 and had the WHOLE yard cleaned of leaves and ready for tomorrow's snow by 5:30! I think Sole even kind of liked it. Sole likes Don, and she likes being where he is...I think its cuz he speaks Spanish???

Took Sam to the Rec Center to sign him and his team --ONE EYED PIRATES--up for Basketball. I get to be the "representative"...they need an adult but they don't dare call me the coach....:)

Mailed your Christmas packages early this morning Josh...
Had a male neighbor tell me after seeing me in my overalls, no make up and just up from a nap that I should HONOR MY BEAUTY....thinking on that one...might be my mocking phrase for awhile. The key word was nap...I went in to make Sam's bed cuz it makes me crazy to keep walking by with it unmade. The sun was coming in the window right on the bed. I crawled in for just a minute to feel the sun on my face (I had been cold since my run this morning, even after getting in the hot tub)and the next thing I knew my phone was ringing and it was Sam wanting his ride home...his bed still isn't made but it doesn't bug me now. I just closed the door.
