Isn't that hoar frost pretty? I've been out this morning, since I had yet another doctor's appointment, and there's areas on some of the trees (mostly on the north side) that still have the ice on them. It's so darn gorgeous in the sunlight but the news broadcasts have been warning to be careful around tall buildings and towers, etc. When that ice falls, it can be deadly. As for Christmas, I'm feeling a bit more in the mood. We got the cards done on Saturday and took them to the main post office so they still went out over the weekend. The tree's now up and most of the gifts, thanks in huge part to Gerry, have been bought. I can't handle the walking involved in the shopping so we've divided and conquered. He shops..........I wrap. And it works for us. But is it my imagination or has Christmas come awfully quickly this year. I know Thanksgiving was a week early so maybe that's why I'm feeling a bit rushed. -- Piggy's Pad

In reply to: Denise 's message, "Sandy made a comment on how pretty the ice was last week. Well, we got fog last night and everything is was coated with white furry frost this morning and it was beautiful. The sun came out and it got warm enough to melt it and now it looks like it's snowing. Gonna be a hectic week here, hope you all have a great week and GOOD GRIEF! CHRISTMAS IS IN 8 DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" on 11:04:56 am, Mon, 12/17/07

Hoar frost? You are just a wealth of information Sandy, I didn't know what it was called! Yes, I think Christmas came around very soon! I say that every year though! lol If Gerry will shop, I say LET HIM! After this year maybe Leon will do the shopping. yeah! : ) I'm feeling a bit pressed but now it's for baking. Doing a quick clean in the a.m. and then will bake all day! (NT) -- Denise, 3:12:25 pm, Mon, 12/17/07
Well, hoar frost is what we always called it and I just asked Gerry...........he agreed. Now, I'm from Nebraska and he's from Maine so if we both agree on something, it's usually true.........LOL. Good luck on your baking. (NT) -- Sandy, 5:24:53 pm, Mon, 12/17/07
