It’s Not White Yet – But Soon?

The Ridge 

On Tuesday, Oct. 18^th we were up at 7. Gibbs slept in until then for his first outing. He’s getting used to these easy-going mornings too. 😊 Bill said he wanted to go in to town with me while I cleaned as he had a couple of stores he wanted to go to. That meant we were in no rush to leave home until around 8 so those venues would be open. Bill said that there were a few light flurries in the air when he took Gibbs out at 7, so as much as we're grateful they didn't land and stick on the ground, we know they are in a nearby forecast. 

I had much success at the last one
finding books on my 'want to read' list
in Goodreads
Maybe I'll pop in on Friday!

The Mat wasn’t too bad at all, I thought maybe Sage had been in last night but checking the calendar proved me wrong. Bill drove up to the Home Hardware and then while I washed the floors at the end of the shift, he drove to the I.D.A. Pharmacy for his winter meds. They were ready for him.

My touch up trim

Back home, we just hung out, chilled, and stayed warm inside. There wasn’t a lot going on today but we had our lunch at noon, I finished my book and Bill and Gibbs had a snooze before 1:30. We both had appointments at 2 for haircuts so nipped down the road to see Bonnie. While there, Bill checked on our riding mower’s maintenance.

All 3 of us are now trimmed up for the
beginning of the winter

Back home, we soon received a call that it was ready. Unfortunately, with the cold wet day we were having, until Friday, he won’t be driving it home until then. We can put it away at that time and it will be dry. It goes into the storage shed and is usually the very last thing anyway. Again, we lounged for the afternoon until I made spaghetti and meatballs for supper.

We haven’t had that for a while so it was enjoyable! With reheated pumpkin pie and some ‘last minute whipped up’ whipped cream (that was a bit runny) we were quite content. This was a good day. It was also a cold day. 3C/39F at its peak with a low of 1C/34F tonight. No more appointments and a slow day tomorrow. Getting excited! 

Dessert only a bit improved by the topping
Good night!
