Saw the movie "Doubt" yesterday and it was very good. Like when movies end and they dont have a happy ending. Wouldn't want it all the time but its nice when you get a ending where you can make of it what you want too.

As we on our way home, stopped off at Target before heading home, we ran into some snow. Pushed to get the car fueled up, because I didn't want to have to do it today if it wasn't nice out. Today is supposed to get in the mid forties, so it might melt the snow.

Mom has a short work week, she will take Thursday and Friday off. Not sure if we will be doing anything special for New Years Eve. Probably not, but might want to plan on having a fire and playing some board games.

What a long strange trip its been in the weather department this week. And I am not kidding. We started the week with a low of around zero and a high in the teens. Then Friday has a high in the upper sixties. If that wasn't fun enough we got heavy rain storms move in over night and we got nearly an inch of rain. Speaking of rain, we got another rain storm recently complete with thunder and lightening. Fun times in December.

Will be seeing a movie this weekend. Haven t seen any movies lately, not because we didn't want to, but nothing really interested us at all. Will probably see a few more movies next year.

Mom loved her gifts. I got a nice purple knit scarf and a perfume/lotion set. The stuff smells wonderful. Will wear it sparingly, but it is wonderful stuff.

Snow and a little rain yesterday means we will be having a white Christmas this year. Mom's drive should be loads of fun.

Christmas is tomorrow. Have Moms' gifts wrapped and ready for opening. I got here a couple nice necklaces from Natures Jewelry. Really cant go wrong when I order from them.

Tomorrow will be a toned down affair. Gifts and breakfast in the morning, a fire and a light lunch for the afternoon and a nice dinner in the evening. At some point I will get a fire going. Not sure what we will do in the evening, but it doesn't matter.

Had a little more winter weather yesterday. There is nothing but a sheet of ice in the driveway. It is supposed to be windy all weekend. But the forecasts haven't been to accurate lately. Seems they are hit and miss as usual.

The Christmas tree is up, decorated and pretty. But the recession and other things have made the season a bit of a Bah Humbug time.

We have snow! And it sucks, too. The rain never came for us on Sunday night. We got a light snow storm and that was it. Guess Mother Nature wanted to wait until today to dump some snow on us. It looks nice, but Mom has to drive in it with people who seem to get amnesia about driving in snow. I always worry about when shes out there. Looks like it might take her awhile to get home tonight. Hopefully she can leave at a decent time.

It was supposed to be a little warmer yesterday and then turn colder but that didn't happen. We went to have the car looked at because I thought we had a leak, but we dont have a leak.

Looks like it might snow or rain tonight, which is always lovely. And we might get a bit more snow later in the week too.

A few deaths I have not mentioned that have happened lately..Van Johnson, Nina Foch and a couple others I am drawing a blank on.

The weather is such a roller coaster that it's hard to plan much. Will more then likely go to the laundromat this weekend and get caught up on a few things. Hate doing it, but I am behind on a few things. Its due to weather and laziness. Will just have to make sure I do laundry when I can now.

Had a brief snow storm, it didn't leave much at all. And melted a little when it got a bit warmer.

Looks like this weekend might be the last nice weather we see for a while.

It is now December and Christmas is inching ever closer.

Already have Christmas shopping done. Just need to do a little decorating and send out a few cards.
Not sure what all we will do leading up to Christmas. Because of the economy and other things I am not in too much of a festive mood. But I doubt I am the only one who feels like that.
