Blustery Sunday

The wind has just been a howling today. There have been wind advisories all day. Thankfully, it isn't terribly cold, mid-40s. The sun has been in and out, mostly out with a few sprinkles. As the sun goes down, we might get a few snow showers.

We had a good morning. Everyone was up nice and early due to the time change, so no rushing around to get ready for church. We had a guest speaker today. He works with a NY organization that promotes legislative accountability and responsibility. He was very interesting to listen to. Some of what he had to say was quite discouraging, but I think it is good to realize that Christian's need to at least get out and vote.

Dispite the vicious winds, Bri and I went for a walk. Gabe tagged along. I told him that we didn't walk slow and that we went farther than when we walk as a family. He assured us he could keep up and he did. It was nice to have that time with him. We saw a wild turkey, a great blue heron, a small snake (squashed in the road), a very cold sluggish stag beetle and the smallest wooly-bear caterpiller I've ever seen.

I was able to get some stitching in today. I have a dealine of Tuesday for a block I'm working on. I'm almost finished and may get it done tonight.

We had tea tonight for our supper. It was a very enjoyable time. This is the first time Brian was able to join us and he thought it was a wonderful idea.

The Littles hit the wall early tonight because of the time change. We kept them up a bit longer, but finally put them to bed. We played some more Uno Attack. That is Gabe's favorite game right now.
