Hi folks,<br>
<br>
I think our weather has had a flashback. It feels two or three months
warmer than November to me. And it's still supposed to be warm
tomorrow. After that, though, it's supposed to chill down about twenty
degrees or so for several days. Back to more like normal for this time
of year. The weather men are already tearing into persimmon seeds to
see if we're having a cold winter, a wet winter or a dry winter,
depending on whether the inside of the seed looks like a knife, fork or
spoon.<br>
I haven't looked into any of those, but I do remember seeing squirrels
gathering nuts like crazy several weeks ago, as if in preparation for a
long, cold winter. We'll just have to wait and see what we get.
Surprisingly, I haven't heard any geese going over yet. My husband
said he did a few days ago when he got up at some awful hour to go to
work. Maybe when these two warm days are over and the cooler front
starts coming through, they'll get the hint. <br>
<br>
Well, the elections are over, so the mud-slinging can cease, along with
the recorded messages to "vote for me", and the constant ads on TV.
Some of those politicians never seem to learn to run on their own
merits, not on the worst thing they can think of to say about their
opponent. It's hard for me to root for someone who acts so mean
spirited to others. I hope you all voted yesterday, especially those
of you newly registed through the recent voter registration drive.
They say if you don't vote, you can't gripe about the way things are
run, but we know that's not true. I think there's an amendment
covering "Freedom to Gripe", (probably one of the most used amendments
of all). <br>
