OMGs...a WONDERFUL time over at my WONDERFUL niece's and her family! LOVE them all! They sent me home with SO MUCH FOOD!
The rain continues. Next year's wheat crop is already in the ground and sprouting. It really needs this kind of slow, soaking rain.
*ice could be on the way.
Created my 2015 Yule card. Now THAT took some effort. It certainly looks good, though. Let's hope this new computer and program will allow it to be printed out properly.

Made my first ever turkey sandwich spread...damned good!

Wooooooooooooooooow, the weatherman definitely had this one right. The cold and rain has continued all day. Now the REAL cold is setting-in with continued rain. Icing is a HUGE possibility.
Attacked by that godsforsaken green chair. I have NO IDEA when I went to bed.

Donar, Son of Wotan and Erda, husband to Sibba, wielder of Malant and Great God of thunder, thunder forth in our lives. When we would hold back, encourage us to advance. When we would be weak, hearten us be strong. When we would shun life’s pleasures, inspire our appetites for that which is lusty and good. Excite our growth from strength to strength; teach us, elder brother, how to throw our own Hammer, and slay the giants who oppose our will. WE GIVE YOU A MOST HEART-FELT HEIL, DONAR, as we honor the Donar that resides in us all!
